Revision of the Equalization of Richland
Center Realty.

Center Realty.
Richland Center, Wis, June 13.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-The commission appointed by
Judge Clementson on an appeal by the
city of Richland Center for a revision of
the equalization of town and city realty,
held their first meeting at the court
house in this city yesterday. Great in
terest is felt in the result of the COM
missoners' labors and the meetings are
attended by numerous town chairmen
and others most interested. A number of
Land owners from the city and towns
have been summoned to give testimony,
and among the latter is Assemblyman J.
G. Henderson, who owns several fine
farms and other property in the county.
This city has held that for years she has
been unjustly equaTized and took this
measure for relief last winter. The COM
missToners are David Shriner of Lam
caster e. E. Adler of Prairie du Chen,
and l. g. Johnson of Montfort. Mr.
Henderson thinks that in case the COM
missioners find the city is equalized too
nigh it will be a much bigger job to ap-
portion the excess to the various towns
than the revision of the equalization.

IMPOSED HEAVY FINES.
Northern Saloon Keepers Guilty of Sell
ing Liquor to Indians.

Madison, Wis, June 12.-[Speciall /
Two more Ashland saloonkeepers who
sold liquor to Indians came to grief IN the
United States court this morning. John
Damea and Martin Kontyey, both of
that city, pleaded guilty to a charge OF
selling fire water to red men and the court
imposed fine of 5000 each or four
months in the house of correction: hont-
vey had the cash and paid up, but Da-
mea will probably serve time.
Charles and George Barlow OF iona
hawk Lake paid fines of $500 each for
the same offense The penalty imposed is
a double dose. It has been customary to
impose a small fine on offenders of this
class. 1t is done in the hope OF remedy
ing the evil of selling liquor to Indians
which is responsible for nearly, it not
quite all, the crimes committed on the
reservations.
Albert Fink of Belle Center, indicted
ON charge of forging a pension check Tor
S42, pleaded not guilty and furnished bail
