$500 Improvement valuation on one
tract and a $500 on another, and
when this fact became known it was
ascertained that the conditions
town lots are too frequently under
estimated in their valuation, the
assessor failing to look at itas being

come nearer the goal of what is right

POLITICS AND NEWS.
Gossip and Opinions Gathered In
the Capital City.

The campaign Cry of the Demo
cratic party next year will, accord
ing to the leaders of the party, be
free silver, free trade and anti
expansion. OF these three issues
the last will undoubtedly be the one
on which the greatest stress will
be laid. Mckinley and his admins
tration is to be maligned and abused
for his policy in dealing with the
Philippine problem and the Republi-
can party is to be paraded before
the people as malefactors of the race.
The Republicans can do nothing
wiser than to encourage the Demo-
Gratis and Populists to carry out
this program. The people of this
country who, without regard to
party affiliations, want to do what is
best not only for the islands which
have become our charge but for the
best of the United States, will with
out question rally to the support of
Mckinley. The present administra-
ton will remain in power until the
questions which have arisen through
a holy war are satisfactorily solved
H. J. Miller, editor of the Rock
County Herald, takes Gov. Lind
severely to task in a vigorous edi-
torial on the Governor attitude
with regard to the Thirteenth Min
nesota. ''Gov. Lees letter to the
President demanding the recall of
the South Dakota troops, and the
Echo of that demagogic screed from
Minnesota may, says Editor Miller,
''be used as campaign documents in
the next campaign, but it is highly
improbable that they will be used
from Democratic headquarters. An
official declaration which the patriot
ism of Texas condemns is not likely
to be received with high favor in

dence lot in the city might be used
as an example. It has sixty feet
frontage, and $500 Improvement.
It pays tax of something over $24
this year. Alongside of it is 12O
feet lot, with three times the i'm
provements. It pays tax of a
little over 81. Down in the bust
ness districts there are some equally
wild valuations, and the. pull seems
evident.
To-day in Redwood county there
are very few pieces of land that are
worth less than other pieces. These
pieces are generally located
along the banks of the Minnesota
river, and are more or less stony.
There are some pieces, however,
but they are few, that could be
placed above the average. There
are those pieces AUDITING on good
city or village sites. But as whole,
leaving out the rocky tracts and
those next to townsites, every acre
OF land in the county to-day is worth
$40 per acre. Assessed at half or
40 per cent. of it's true valuation the
assessment would be either SO or
IS per acre. How many tracts in
Redwood county are paying taxes
on that valuation to-day? The i'm
provements come under different
head, and a good assessor will
enumerate them fairly, and will not
allow the man with a political pull
to influence him and decrease his
Improvement valuation at the ex-
pense of an increase of an improve
ment valuation for some farmer
without political pull. Last year,
