Zeil Telephone Company's Property
Assessable.
Judge Barrett, of Walkerton, gave a
decision the other day that will be of in-
terest to municipal authorities. The
assessor of Walkerton assessed the poles
and instruments of the Bell Telephone
Company. The Company appealed against
the assessment, and the Judge has given
Ifs decision that the property is assessable.
The Walkerton Herald gives a summary of
r the judgment as follows: The company
�• was assessed for $1,200 under the head of
1 real estate, Auainst this the company
appealed on the ground that the i,oles,wires+
tc with instruments for generating electricity
r''' and transmitting messages were not assess-
xr;
able property nor were they personal pro-
perty; that the poles and wires are part of
the realty to which they are affixed, and
that they aro exempt because they are
part of the highway, and tixat the tele -
hoses are exempt because they form
t of the realty of the owners of
houses in which they are affixed.
Tete judge holds that the property is per:
sonar; that it does not change its clxaracter
by being set in the ground, as it is remov-
*Me at will, remains the property of the
elsompetny, and can be removed without in-
jury to the freehold. Were it otherwise
'the property in the poles would pass to the
ners of the land. Similarly the tele -
ones are merely affixed to the freehold in
h a way as to be easily removed without
ry thereto; that they are simply leased

The Canadian Magazine for August.
In variety of topics, in interest and
general excellence, the well illustrated and
erlargedmici-summer number of The Cana-
dian Magazine well maintains the high
reputation which this new national review
has won in public estimation. Theleading
story of the number, "The Baekslidiug of
Elder Pletus,” by W. T. James, is illustrat-
ed, and gives a graphic picture, evidently
from personal acquaintance, of tlxe inside
life of the Shaker community at Sout
Union, Kentucky. "Accused by the deaf;
by E. MacG. Lawson, is very original and
striking in plot and treatment. In "Sir
John Thompson and His Critics," J. L. PI,
O'Hanly, C. E., makes a vigorous defersie
of the Canadian premier against the
attacks make on that gentleman on account
of his religious beliefs. "Political Lessons
from the Times of Cicero," by Edward
Meek, is an able and scholarly article of
much value and interest to the politician

geon, as he applied the splints and
