Beit Telephone Company's Property
Assessable.
it Judge Barrett, of Walkerton, gave a
it decision the other day that will be of in -
It, tenet. to municipal authorities. The
assessor of Walkerton assessed the poles
and instruments of the Bell Telephone
Company. • !Vile -Company appealed against
the assessment, and the Judge has given
se • his decision that the property is assessable.
ix' The Walkerton Herald gives a summary of
the incipient as follows: The company
eT
rtx waa assessed for $1,200 under the head of
i1 real estate. Auainst this the company
;appealed on the ground that the loles,wires,
tt'k 'with instruments for generating electricity
y` and, transmitting messages were not assess-
able property nor were they personal pro-
Tterty; that the polos and wires are part of
the realty to which they are affixed, and
3e"
rt; that they are exempt because they are
part of the highway, and that the tele -
hones are exempt because they form
t of the realty of the owners of
houses in which they are affixed.
t the property p
judge holds that i s per:
tal; that it does not change its character
being set iu the ground, as it is remov-
will, remains the property of the
}ny, and can be removed without in•
jury to the freehold. Were it otherwise
prol)erty in tate poles would pass to the
acre of the land, Similarly the tele.
hones are merely affixed to the freehold in
rh a way as to be easily retnoved without
jury thereto; that they are simply leased
the triers and are removed when the
es do not comply with the terns of the
or when the Teases expire. The judge
pestles to the que''tgttt of whether the
forty is exempt and by many quotations
references to previous decisions shows
t it is properly emessal le. Ito directed

general excellence, the well illustrated and
erlargedmid-summer number of The Cana-
dian Magazine well maintains the high
reputation wbieh this new national review
has won in public estimation. Theleading
story of the number, "The Baeksliding of
Elder Pletus," by W. T. James, is illustrat-
ed, and gives a graphic picture, evidently
from personal acquaintance, of the inside
life of the Shaker Community at Soutl
Union, Kentucky. "Accused by the dead"
by E. MacG. Lawson, is very original and
striking in plot and treatment. In "Sir
John Thompson and His Critics," J. L. P
O'Hanly, C. E., makes a vigorous defence
of the Canadian premier against the
attacks make on that gentleman on account
of his religious beliefs. "Political Lessons
,i
from the Tinter of Cicero," by Edward
Meek, is an able and scholarly article of
much value and interest to thee politician
and thinker of the present day. "Iteferen.
dun' and Plebiscite," by Hon. G. W.
Moss, Ontario's 1difnlster of Education,
deals in a concise but cenzlirehensive
manner with a question of increasing in-
terest to Canadians, and will no doubt
provoke a reply, In "A Canadian in New
York," Elgin Myers, Q. C., reviews the
history of Mr. ] rastus Winton. Under
the peculiar caption, "The Ethics of'J Till.
age," Dr. P. 11. Bryce writes,pleasantly
ana thoughtfully, a eulogy of farm life.
Mr, J. L. Payno's facile pen treats of the
"Displacement of 'Young 14ten" by young
women, and fears for the future of society.
"Concerning Criticism," by Ilelen A.
Hicks, is to most sensible and lively discus•
Sion of the standards of criticism. Geo
