THAT TEN PER CENT INCREASE.

THAI TEN fth UbNI lHUhhAob'
The impression seems to have
been created in the minds of some
of our people that the State Board
of Equalization had raised the taxes
on Bates county property ten Per
cent. This is an error. The assess
ment of Bates county was raised 10
per cent. Under the law there
must be fairness in the equalizipg
of taxation and each county in the
state must bear its just proportion
In this respect if the assessors fail
to do their duty in assessing real
and personal property, making the
county fall short of it's just pro
rata, then it is not only the duty,
but obligatory upon the state
board to adjust the assessments.
The duties of the state board are IN
line with the duties of the county
boards of equalization, which meet
once a year to equalize township as.
sessments. To make each county in
the state bear its equal proportion of
taxes there must be some way fixed
by law to get at the matter, and this
is why boards of equalization and
boards OF appeals are created There
fore, if the board of this county has
a grievance at the action Of the state
board for having raised the assess
ment OF this county on real aud
personal property, it has its re
course before the state board of
appeals, which meets later The
state board of equalization is com.
posed of democrats, and if their
action in raising assessments was
done on political basis, they GER
tainly would not have picked out one
OF the strongest democratic counties
in the state upon which to practice
imposition.

Consumption IS no
respecter of persons. The germs of this
most dreadful of diseases float in the air
we breathe, in the water we drink, in the
money we handle. Perfectly harmless
in healthy body, they are absolutely
deadly wherever weakness exists The
lungs are the most sensitive of all the
vital organs. The delicate lining of the
lung cells and passages is easily irritated.
If the blood is impure and gernful the
lung lining soon becomes inhamed. I'M
pure matter accunulates. If consump-
ton germ is in the body it lodges there
and propagates Soon the entire body
is full of bacilli and consumption has
firm hold.
Many doctors say that consumption is
incurable and necessarily fatal. They
are mistaken. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery will cure oS per cent. of
all cases of consumption, if taken prompt
ly according to directions. 1t has cured
thousands. 1t is quickly absorbed by the
blood and searches out every disease
germ i'll the body. It assists nature to
throw off germs and all effete matter and
restores the body to perfect health and
strength.
When the bowels are clcgged they unload their
impurities into the blood which III turn deposits
them throughout the entire system. The victim
of this condition suffers from headaches, blurred
VISION, heartburn, sour stomach, foul taste in
the mouth, f1atulence and biliousness.- Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets promptly cure consti-
patton and these attendant ills. One is gentle
laxative. They never gripe. Druggists sell
them. Substitutes are dangerous.
