CHICAGO, April 27.-The l~ong.talked-
OF boycott Of the Dewey celebration by

tween which organization and the
Building Trades unions a war has ex.
listed for two months, costing millions
Of dollars in wages and paralyzing
building operations.
The report comes from a member OF
the committee appointed by the city
council. The contractors for brickwork,
it is said, have have been forced by the
brick manufacturers to agree to arbitra'
ton, thus retiring from the position as
sumed by the contractors association,
that 1.-the building trades council mus,

pressure have agreed to treat with the

MATTERS TAXATION.
Meeting Of Assessors To- orrow-Uni
fOrmity of Assessment Throughout
the State Urged.

Tomorrow is the day OF meeting OF
city and township assessors in the re-
spective counties, and those Of Lake
county meet in the auditors Office to
map out a schedule for assessing real
and personal property in the county. A
strong effort is being made by the state
auditor and others to seoure uniformity
OF assessment throughout the state, and
at the recent meeting in isnkton q basis
OF assessment was agreed upon and
recommended by the state auditor to all
counties in the matter OF stock, as fol.
lows:
! (a) Horses over six months and under
three years, $40 to $50.
(b) Horses three years old and over,
goo to $50.
(a) Cattle over six months and under
two years old, 80 to s23.
(a) Cows two years old and over. $40
to $50.
(cp Cattle two years old and over, SO
to $40.
Mules and asses, same as horses ac-
cord.ug to age and value.
Sheep. B to 81.
Hogs, So to IS.
In real estate, Auditor Reeves calls
attention to the equalization made by
the state board last year and suggests
that assessors follow this as q basis.
This would involve an assessment Oh
per cent higher in Lake county than
assessors made last year as that was the
per cent we were raised by the state
board, The effort throughout is to get
as near to an actual value assessment as
possible and to gather in all kinds OF
property. Taxes being generally levied
in lump sums, the amount to be paid by
each individual is no more as the rate
per cent OF levy would be just so much
less. In his circular OF suggestions late
! " issued, the state auditor gives the
Opinions and experiences OF many as
SCISSORS in the work, that OF the lankton
assessor being the most interesting az
Yankton county was the only county as
sessed at or zeal actual value last year
This assessor says:
II believe in assessing all kinds Of
property for it's full value in money
That is the only way you osn assess ant
do It right. Last spring when I started
to assees that way there was q howlinI
and a cursing among the people. Blu
