This shows an increase OF sl.1j9,54S
over the assessment OF 1915, but as the
value OF all new buildings and the better
ments to old buildings have been added
Il ON year to year since, until in January,
1'S0, the Stale assessment Of real estate in
Richmond amounted to s2S, ,622 1884. 1t will
be seen that the real increase is only $780,
760. This would seem to indie lie thar our
real estate has, as whole, been put down
as being worth as much as in 1915. This
is. however, not true, for the real estate
heretofore on our taX.books shows lower
valuation by this new assessment Dy' about
Si,000.000. This loss is more than made
up by the addition for tho first time Of
Sl.2j3,G00 OF property belonging to the
railroads centriDg in this city, not hereto
fore taxable.
IL will be noticed that there has been an
increase Of taxable values in every ward Of
the city except Jefferson.

THE ooNKLrNe CONTEST.

The balloting yesterday, in the
great senatorial race at Albany,
N. Y, up to the hour Of our going
to press, did not show any change
in the situation. Mr.. Conkling re-
ceived one vote less in joint conven-
ton than the day before in the sep
arate vote of the two houses, and
Plat held his own. The republican
vote is 1O6. Of this number, Conk-
ling received 81, or less than one
third, and PIatt, 29-very little
more than one-fourth. Things look
blue for the two great kickers, aud
the odds are against them, although
no one can tell what day vii
bring forth. Pools are still selling
high on Conk.

MOCK Your DOGS.

We heard one of the most proml-
nent farmers in the county, and a
gentleman who is fond of the sport
himself. in speaking of game and
hunting the other day, say that
those gentlemen in the country,
who take pleasure in hunting and
keep dogs for that purpose, ought tc
block them in order to keep them
from running at large in the fields
and destroying the young birds anc
eggs. This struck us as very sen
sible suggestion, and we thought i
would be well enough to call th'
attention of gentlemen interested
in such matters to it.
