In some of the counties of the state
the state board OF equalization have
made heavy changes. There was
nothing done in regard to this county
which shows that the assessments
made were all right. In Tyler
county an entirely new assessment
was ordered as it was SO grossly def
cient.

THE increase in tenancy as opposed
to the ownership of real property has
increased very greatly in recent years.
The correctness of this will be shown
by the census enumerators for which
they began work to-day. In general,
the thirteen original states, rich in
wealth, trade and manufactures, are
those in which the percentage of
ownership of farms and homes is low
est, and in keeping with the fact,
statistics of valuation show almost
universally that tenancy is most COM
mon where land is most valuable.
WAYNEsBuRG beat Homestead
eight to two this week. We defeat

Friday at that place. The result
will be watched with interest. The
team viii go from that place TO
Washington where they will play
w. Il j. again. The latter has been
defeated by nearly every team that
they have met this year. Their re-
cord has been far from being proud
one. 1t is probably due to the fact
that the faculty has shut down on
their playing professionals. They
have always loaded up with profess
SIGNALS until this year and in conse-
quence those who are left are not
much good.
