EQUALIZATION BUSINESS.

On last Thursday the commissioners
went to Kiowa accompanied by the
county attorney to look at the stock of
goods of the merchants of that city
with view to equaliZing the assess
ed valuation as compared with mer-
chants of other cities. The result of
their trip was that the valuation of
four firms or merchants were raised as
follows:
Il. d. Herold was raised from 81 100
to 81 10000.
j. w. Metz was raised from 81, 800 to
So 900.
H. G. Waltner was raised from ST.
$50 to S2.100.
The York-Key Mercantile Co., was
raised from 81 900 to s., 500.
We understand the action on the
part of the Board gives satisfaction
even to the Kiowa merchants them
selves.
The banks of Kiowa were also raised
on their stock 10 40 per cent, the same
as the Citizens State bank of this city.
Owing to the fact that the different
assessors differed so widely on assess
ing cattle, the board established basis
as follows:
Cattle 6 mos. old and under one year,
$500. Cattle one year old and under
two, $3.50.
Steers 2 years old and under three,
$500.
Heifers 2 years old and under three,
$500.
Steers years old and over, S11.5O
Cows years old and over, $1,000.
Western and southern cattle 6 mos.
Old and under year, $500
Western and southern cattle 1 year
old and under two, $400
Western and southern steers 9 years
old and under three, $7.G0.
Western and southern heiters 9 years
old and under three, SIS %
Western and southern COWS 8 years
old and over, 500
Western and southern steers three
years old and over, $40 90.
This basis does not apply to cattle
within the cities of Kiowa, Hazelton
and Medicine Lodge. The valuation
of cattle, milk COWS especially, in the
cities, IN the judgment of the Board
could be better determined by the re.
spectve assessors.
On Saturday the commissioners ad-
Journed as board of equalization and
met as board of commissioners, and
III the afternoon E. Sample appeared
before the board asking that Messrs.
Wright and Roller now held in the
county jail be released. Messrs. Wyer
and Walker stated that they could not
consistently grant the request and
Commissioner Murray ooneurred.
The injunction heretofore served on
the county treasurer restraining him
from paying interest on bond ed in
debtedneSs is still held and the county
attorney was instructed to correspond
with the bondholders and procure
terms of compromise if any can be Sc
cured.
This ended the work of the week and
the board adjourned until the July
term.
