LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

TRULY REFREsHING.ZAmong the multi
tudinous applications for reductions of assess
ments before the Board of Equalization,
refreshing breeze in the opposite direction
occurred yesterday in the form of an applica-
ton from E. r. Paivin, of Grand Island, to
have the assessment upon his land increased.
He was assessed SO, 800 for Improvements
which had previously been washed away. He
afterwards built small house, which he con-
siders worth $780, and the remaining 5000
he wanted to have added to his real estate,
as he regarded it worth that much more than
the amount for which it was entered on the
assessment roll. This unheard-of petition
was too much for the Assessor. He asked
Parvin if he meant it. He replied that he
certainly did that it was no more than the
property was worth. The Assessor looked
over at the Board of Equalization, and then
around the room, to see if it was not dream
he pinched himself to see if he was Houston,
but it was no use. There was no rubbing it
out-a petitioner had asked for an increase of
his assessment. The application was handed
to the Chairman of the Board, and the men,
bers gathered around and looked at it. And
when they had had time to recover their
breath, in a subdued and reverential tone
they unanimously granted the request, and
the necessary change was made, while the
Board and assessing officials mutely sat and
looked at each other and the petitioner, Won
dering whether the fuifillment of Mother
Symptoms prophecy was dawning.
