has listed It's locomotives AZ SEQ. nearly
double the figures given US by the North
ern Pacific. and its coaches AZ &ooo- three
times the prize they gave us. haze either
go, 10 reduce the seattle. Lake Shore &
Eastern figures or increase those OF the
Northern Pacific, and ! think the latter Is
the better plan, for don't ixiiese the for

The assessors of Adams. kittifns and
Pierce counties. In which are the ends Of
divisions, lay elsim Ia all OF the rolling
stock. but their claim VIII no, be seriously
considered by the other assessors- Attor-

lug attorneys Of the various counties would
hold conference 70 consider the matter Of
the Northern Pacific assessments
