that they were too full of errors to
admit of tax collection'' nod v.mld
probably take several days to uia-( I lie 1
correct ions.
I pronounce this statement liil-i-nnd (
llln alled for, no ditlerem e who may '
lie the author of It.
I promistd your reporter at o to 1
make a full and complete st u tt-incii t us !
soon a the court adjourned, aud sub- j
mit the following: j
The rolls were turned over t the I
sheriU'on Saturday afternoon, l-',-i. l'7, :
and were kept closed until .Match
!. during w hich time. I presume, th.-'
iwoaeputy Mlierilli were employed iu
ve'ifylu the rolis at tt cost to tin
county of about 150.
The total numliernf errors disi-overed
by them was 211, divided in follow;
Eirors iu computing fpe(-ial m-IumiI
taxes j i
Errors in computing pceiul city
taxes r,
Errors In adding cross psgca u
Errois in footings i
Error in school dist not votiing tax.. 1
Ommissioii to extend (list tax 4
Errors in erasing wronir unioiint
school district ol 3
The last three errors were ma le in
changing the levy iu scho.il district No
51 in volume 1 after it was completed,
as it was found that t'le rate extended
would not raise the amount of money
needed, and to correct each page where
any taxpayers tax of said district was
extended requiring four erasures and
corrections for each page one of these
changing the total tax of one taxpayer
but none of them changing the total of
the page. The total number of tax
payers over charged was seven in
amounts ranging' from nine cents to
two dollars and amounting in the ag
gregate to 110.3-j and the change of the
grand total of both volumes was just
20.00. There was not a single error
discovered in the amount of
any individual's slate aud county tax
in either volume.
As few taxpayers realize the inauiii-
tude of the work of making a tax roll
aud extending the tax thereon, I will
say that this year's rolls have a little
over 600 pages of .'10 lines 40 inches
long. It will average about twenty
lines extended on each page or leu
thousand extensions; each line has
from two to five items, consisting of
poll, special city, sH'cial school, state
and county, aud total tax, making
about twenty thousands multiplica
tions, ten thousand additions besides
live fool nigs for each page. This gives
over thirty-two thousand opportunities
for mistakes after leaving out all
stimates for change ordeied to be
made by the state board of ntialia
lion; and there being found bu
twenty-nine errors all told is, I think,
remarkably accurate work.
Further the law dots not require the
herilfto verify this work and it was
purely voluntary on his part. Neither
doc the law require the clerk to make
anv corrections for the sherill aft ir the
rolls have been turned over to him for
Co lection.
Hie tax rolls have not b.-eii out of the
sheriffs nlllco during ollh-e bouts a
single hour since Feb. -7, the correc
tions having all been m t do in consid
erable lesii than one day's tlino outside
fofllve hours.
I feel sure that the pubJlo will agree
ith me that tbero is no good reason
by the tax rolls should not have
beeu opened at S o'clock March 1st, for
the purpose of receiving taxes, alio
that the delay of ten days and attend
ant expense was tinnecessry .
I should nut have made tins state
ment at all bad It not it lnn put li.l eh
br .adcas' all over the slate that Lane
county's ta rolls eere not in condition
receive taxes on, this bringing on
UK' unjust ami unmerited criticisms

to write about and so little space at
i our command.
j The city was lirst settled in A ltll
! and today it number li'll.ooo iuhalii-
taut. Our Hist visit wa to the Ca
thedral, the most ambitious church
building iu the western world, Is built
upon the site of the great temple of the
Ar.tecs destroyed by nU. shortly
alter hi occupancy of the city. The
lirst church, a small one, huilt iu
1-VJ.S, was enlarged " few Jetus lah-r.
Tlie enrner stone of the present church

valted roofs and altars gorgeoiis y
adorned. 1 here are 20 (luted column
supporting the vaulted roof, w hich is
in the shape of a Latin Cross, and iu
the center of which I tho beautiful
dome.
Tne Mower sale held daily in front
of the Cathedral is a great one and Is
not excelled, it is said iu the world for
tine specimens and for the tas(y man
ner in which they are mado up. They
sell from 25 cents to f20 per bunch.
Tho." next place visited was the
.National Library, which contains
200,000 volumes; the next the Nation
al School of Fine Arts. It contains
thousands of master pieces. The school
was lirst opened in 177H; then wo vis
ited the National Museum. This
institution is tilled to ovcrllowing
with relics of Mexico. It contains
interesting relic of the later people of
Mexico In the time of the Moiitv.umas.
rhere are examples of Atec picture
writings, representing the wanderings
of the trities, among w hich is a shield
of Montezuma 1 1. There are also the
silver and state coaches of Meximillaii.
It is a place that would require weeks
to thoroughly Investigate.
In the afternoon the association was
given a private reception by Presi
dent Porflro Diaz at the National Pul
aeeon the Plaza Mayor. It is built
upon ground that was once the proper
ty of Cortez, who seems to have had
an eye for valuable real estate. Cortez
built a place hero that remained iu the
possession of his heirs until 1502, when
it was bought by the Crown for the
residence of the Viceroys. The Palace
of today occupies 1111 entire square,
fronting nearly 700 feet 011 the Plaza
Mayor. It Is .occupied by tho l'resl
dent's officer aud his cabinet. The
Hall of the Ambassador is a magnifi
cent room, running nearly the entire
length of the front. It contains por
traits of many of the piesidents, stales
men and soldiers of Mexico, notably
thii'e of Hidalgo. Morelos. Alletide.
Mataiiioras, Juarez and Ilia, ami our
own Immortal Washington. The Sen
ate holds Its session ill the palace, but
the House of Deputies occupies tl o old
i ttirbide theatre.
Tho reception was a very pluasaut
one, hpeeches were made in behalf of
the association by tho president and
t he president elect and were respond
ed to by President H it In an excellent
speech. All Interpreter of course was
prHsent.
President Diaz is a Hue looking man
and is suid to Ut of pure Indian blood.
Ho has been president of the re
public ever since 1S70, with the ex
ception of three years. He Is a won-
leifiil man and Is working for the
good of tils country. He it the Czar
of Mexico. It Is a republic only Iu
name.
It is not possible for a republi
can form of government to exist in the
outitry under prese.it conditions.
Diaz is surrounded hy thousands of
troops all over the republic, and they
are removed from one section to auoth-
r every few months to prevent them
from forming plans for revolution; the
governors ot tlie states are appolnlel
by him and are his s-cial friends.
He l a staunch Mason although a con
servative Catholic and compels all offi
cers of the government to Join the or-
r as well as the general of the
army, rl'i Is a rrleml or the Ameri
cans and give them every privilege

Tho experience of last year with
the I. alio county tax roll Is being un
dergone again this year, though at
tended by lcs confusion than it was
one year ago. The roll wa delivered
over to Sherill' Johnson several days
ago by County Clerk Jennings, but
Saturday night It was handed back to
Mr Jennings for tho correction of er
rors whieh aro claimed by the slier I (I
to exist In the toll.
lieforo attempting to collect any
taxes Sherill Johnson's deputies made '
an investigation of Its correctness.
Though they aro reticent about the
matter, it has leaked out that the sher
ill" deputies claim that tho roll Is too
full or errors to admit of tax collec
tions. Accordingly it has beeu handed
back to Mr Jennings for correction and
verlllcalioii.
The mistakes wsro made hy deputies
employed by the county clerk. Several
day's time w ill probably be consumed
iu making the necessary corrections
and until then tho man who Is anxious
to pay his taxes must curb his pa
tience.
