Laurence Record: Mr.. b. A. AM
bier, of this city, has been gathering
statistics from all the counties Of the
State regarding the financial standing
of the country in general. From each
register of deeds he has obtained a
comparative statement of mortgages
made and released since the first day
of January. In almost every case,
the Register of Deeds books show a
decreasein the Observation-Disclosures
and in several counties upwards OF
$4,000 more of mortgages have been
released than have been put on. This
would not include the number that
have been cancelled and not released.
The result of this investigation is a
fiattering indication that better times
are i'm store for the "Sunfiower" State
and that, too, at no distant day.

Figures from the Assessors Rolls.

The assessors rolls from all the
townships have been returned to the
county clerks Office, and by the
courtesy of that official the REGISTER
has been permitted to take from them
certain figures that will doubtless be
read with interest. The table which
We give below shows, in separate
columns, the assessed valuation of the
real estate of each township and city
except in the case of the city of Moran
which was not entered OH the books
apart from the township, the average
valuation per acre, the valuation of
taxable personal property exemptions
deducted), and the population. For
purposes of comparison the similar
items from last years rolls are also
given. 1t will be observed that the
valuation ofreal estate exec eds that of
two years ago, taking the county over,
by more than 500, 600, while the valu-
alton of personal property this year is
so, 900 higher than last. The meeting
of the Board of Equalization next Mon-
day, however, may make some change
in these figures. We wish that the
Board might change the population
figures also, so as to make it appear
that we had gained SS4 people instead
of having lost that many, but we fear
there is little show for this. The Okla
homa exodus probably accounts for
the larger part of this loss. For the
benefit of new Corners it might be ex-
planned that Logan township was
organized since the last assessment,
taking parts of Humboldt and Cottage
Grove, which accounts for the very
marked change i'm the returns from
those two townships.
But the figures can talk for them
selves. Here they are:
