Contempt Case.

The county commissioners have been in
session about two weeks. An impression
seems to prevail on the part Of some that
perhaps the con missioners are doing too
much. A great many mistakes have been
found in tho assessment, SAYS Mr.. Edgerton,
and Il great man inequalities. When the
work of the board is finished there will be
very little change in the footings. Some
property has been raised and some lowered.
The object is to get one part equalized with
another. The commissioners hope to get
through in two or three days. Another I'M
preston seems to be that tho board sits for
the purpose of making valuations on prop
erty. or assessing property in the first
instance. The commissioners meet simply
for the purpose of equalizlng. That is,
they have the power to increase or lower
any assessment, 80 as to equalize the value
of the property and make the assessment
conform to tho value. Before the board
grants any application or makes any reduc-
ton it examines under oath the person
making application.
The commissioners are required, under
ths revenue act. to meet on the second
Monday in August n fix the rate OF
county taxes and designate the number OF
mills on each dollar of valuation of prop
erty for each fund.
When the county board of equalization
adjoarns no further reductions or correc-
tions will be made.

State Board.

The state board of equalization was in
session yesterday determining railrond as
sessments. Some time during the week the
work will be finished. This work consists
of assessing the franchise, roadway. road.
bed, rails and rolling stock of all railroads
owned, leased or operated in more than
one county III the state. The board ia also
required to make a biennial report to the
legislative assembly, showing the acreage
of each county in the state that is assessed;
the amount assessed per acre;
the aggregate value of all town
and city lots; the aggregate value of all
real estate and mining claims. stating each
separately, in the state; the kind Of per-
sonal prope ty in each county, n the
value of each kind; the aggregate value of
all personal pro erty in the state; any in.
formation relative to the assessment OF
property and the collection of revenue.

This is the season of rest and recreation
for the men of the dry goods trade, espe-
ciallv in tho eastern cities, while here in
the west the dry goods merchant will
scarcely notice any decided change in the
character of his trade as the seasons change
notably Helena, whose merchants boast
of u wonderfully active business during the
month of July. Still it is not to he Won
dered at when n firm can offer for 49c. gen
all-wool Highland plnids, without de-
feet in color or finish, forty inches wide,
and worth 75c. a ward in any market. They
offer a bargain for which the regular bar
gain seeker may HINT in vain during old
time for anything to equal it. This chance
to secure a standard dress material below
easte"n price will be given by the New York
Dry Goods Store during this week. A lady
who affirmed that a better bargain was
never offered by any merchant in Montana
can be believed. The New York Store has
a grand name for fine goods. and
with their pronounced reputation of
superior efforts there is little Cub of their
holding the cream of the best trade. We
are informed that in addition to their spe-
cial sale of plaids this week they will offer
at manufacturers prices u new consign-
ment of the celebrated Gloria silk umbrel-
las. The August sun shines MS fierce in
Montana "a Though welived within the pale
of the Tropic of Cancer. Why then not be
within the cool of a Spreading umbrella,
especially if one can make the purchase at
a nominal figure.

Painless Dentistry.

DIR. II. j. With, the celebrated Minneap-

Helena a chance to test the efficacy of his
system. By his method from a single
tooth to a mouthful can be extracted with
out an iota of pain. in u minimum of time.
Neither chloroform, ether or poisonous
drug is used. 1t is an original system, en-
tirely painless. Teeth are inserted without
the use of plates. Tho doctor, who will be
at the Windsor house for the next ten days,
can be counseled free of charge by all
those who need the services of Il dentist.
