TAUGHT A LESSON BY POPS

Republicans Will Raise Pullman Assess
mens, and Sent Their Passes Back
The members of the present state
board of railroad assessors have decided
to raise the assessment on Pullman Pal
ace car property in Kansas.
The Populist assessors reduced the as
sessment on Pullman sleeping cars
from $4,000 to $4,000, a reduc-
ton of $1,000 on each car oper-
ated in the state. AS pretended
Offset to this reduction the Populist
assessors raised the assessment of tourist
sleeping cars 100 per cent from 81 800 to
5000, but as there are but few of the
emigrant cars used in Kansas that did
nat affect the Pullman company very
materially.
The Republican assessors have now
decided to put the Pullman assessment
back to where it was before the Popu-
list assessors lowered it.
This conclusion has been arrived at
but when the representatives of the Pull
man company have had their hearing
before the board as they will some other
action may be taken.
The Populist assessors made trouble
for themselves by using Pullman passes,
and the Pullman pass business is d ghost
which is annoying the Republicans. ~-~'s q
Before the Pullman company sent out
their passes for this year representative
of that company visited Lieutenant Gov
ernor James A Troutman and talked
with him about the matter, but Mr..
Troutman said plainly that he would not
accept of Pullman pass The result of
this was that all of the railroad
assessors were furnished with
Pullman passes except Mr.. Troutman.
Secretary of State Edwards and Auditor
G. E. Cole, profiting by the trouble of
| their predecessor. Immediately sent their
passes back.
The other railroad assessors, Attorney
General Dawes and State Treasurer
Atherton, did not send theirs back imme-
| diately, but have since returned them to
the official who sent them out.
