lions.-The Maryland Tysons who have set
up claims to part of the many millions Of
James Tyson, who died some time agoln Aus
tralia, are not hearing anything encouraging.
In an interview few days ago with Balti-
more reporter Mr.. w. Lee Camden, who rep
resented several of the Maryland claimants,
said:
ut was pretty generally believed that James
Tyson was born in Cecil county, Md, and at
an early age, with his parents, went to England
to live, and from there to Australia where he
succeeded in boarding large fortune by means
of successful mining ventures and economical
living.
MANY OF the Tysons in this city and in
Cecil county, who are descendants Of Reiner
Tyson, who came to this country from Ger
many in 1858, have employed counsel to rep
resent any supposed interest they might have
in the Tyson millions, and am told that
many of these have filed their claims.
but am rather inclined to think that so
far no chain of relationship has been estab-
lished between the Maryland Tysons and the
said James Tyson at least, if such is the case,
l am not aware of it. Irepresent some 20 or
| 80 of the supposed Maryland heirs, and have
United States Consul at Melbourne secretary
| Department of Agent General for New South
| Wales and the law firms of Blake Il Riggall
and Fisher & Macansh of Melbourne, and so
far have been unable to establish any relation
| ship whatever between the descendants of Rel
ner Tyson and the late James Tyson. Attor-
ney James ] . Lindsay. of Towson, say he has
learned that Mr.. James Tyson had near rela-
tives living in Baltimore city and Cecil county.
II receive letters every week from one or
more of the supposed heirs. making inquiry
as to what developments have been made in
the matter, and as there are some 400 or 500 OF
these supposed heirs living in and around Bal
timore, it would be great satisfaction to them
to know just what progress is being made in
the way of establishing proof of the heirs OF
James Tyson.
Among the attorneys who have been en-
| ployed in this matter are James J. Lindsay
William Reynolds, William T. Roberts and
Malcolm Tyson"

MRS. RILEY DEAD.

On Wednesday evening occurred the
death Of Mrs. r. J. Riley at the home
of her sister, Mrs. John L. Ainsworth,
the cause of her death being cancer of
the breast. Mrs. Riley had been sick
for some time and was brought from
her home in Stockholm township to
her SISTERS that she might be nearer
medical aid. Everything possible was
done for her, the physician being a
daily visitor for many months. She
leaves husband and we believe three
children to mourn her loss. Funeral
services were held at her sisters and
interment was made in Deloit Gene
terry. The bereaved ones have the
sympathy of the community.

GREENE COUNTY FOR CONNER.

It is with pleasure that we learn that
Greene county has selected solid
Conner delegation to the Fort Dodge
convention. Greene and Crawford
have always stood loyalty together
without jealousies and without rival
ries. The republicans of Crawford ex-
tend their sincere thanks to the re-
publicans of Greene and assure them
that they will have no cause to regret
their choice. We believe Greene
county has picked the winner and that
we will go hand in hand with them to
victory. If defeat comes we know that
Greene county will meet it with us as
Loyalty as we met defeat with them at
the last state convention.
Here's to Greene county, may its
shadow never grow less, and may it's
republican workers never have cause
toregret their stalwart friendship to
the man from Crawford.

The Jefferson Bee of this week pub
fishes portrait of Judge Conner and
has this to say of its county conven-
ton:
I" After lengthy deliberation the COM
mittee reported in favor of the follow
ing for delegates to attend the congress
sional convention: M. M. Head, Jas.
Holden, Charles Try, Henry Haag, K.
@. Latta, Ed Coburn, G. M. Vader, Geo
Dawson, j. F. Hassett, H. E. Loyejoy.
j. w. Dillavou, w. L. Cox.
The report was adopted.
The result of the convention is a
decisive victory for the friends of
Judge Conner in Greene county, and
the entire delegation will support him
at Fort Dodge and use all honorable
means to further his nomination. In
view of the fact that this was the
avowed disposition of all the delega-
ton, efforts to secure instructions fay-
orable to Judge Conner were dropped,
and his interests left entirely in the
hands of the twelve gentlemen named
above, who will go to Fort Dodge next
Tuesday.

THE Taxes ARE Lowered.
State and County Taxes Re
duced More Than $4,000.
GOOD NEWS FOR ALL TAXPAYERS
Both County and state Out Of Debt.
Good Management and lncreas-
ed Valuation Lowers the Tax Levy
One and Eight-Tenths Mills.

The tax levy for this year in the
state and county has been reduced one
and eight-tenths mills. This means a
reduction of over $4,000 in the amount
of taxes to be paid by the people of
Crawford county. The reduction in
taxes is traceable to two sources, first
~, careful and economical manage
ment, and secondly, the large increase
in the assessed valuation brought
about by prosperous times and better
methods of assessment. The assessed
valuation of Crawford county, not in
GLIDING express, telegraph and tele-
phone lines, is Sc, 1926. 254. The reduc-
ton of l 8 mills means therefore a re-
duction in taxes to the amount of Sl0,-
125. A comparison showing where
these reductions are made ia as follows:

The two days shooting. tournament
under the management of the Denison
Gun Club was successful in every way;
the attendance was good, the weather
fine and the traps in excellent working
order. There we're some twelve or
fifteen expert shooters present, who
participated in every event, and who
were kept on the alert by local shoot
ers. The home boys we're, as the
saying goes, ''up against the real
thing" They were shooting right
along with such fellows as Hughes of
Fonda, an excellent shot; Kline of
Spirit Lake; a brother-in-law to- Fred

so straight blue rocks; G. B. Patti of
Rockwell City: Drumming OF Breda:
Dean of Dunlap, and WEIGH and Cress
of Sac City.
On Wednesday there was good
bunch of shooters in each event, there
being eighteen shooters in event No. 8
and all won money. Each day there
were interesting events-live birds and
good monies. One noticeable feature
of the tournament was the fact that
Denison does not have to go away for
good shooters. Henry Meeves, John
Tamm, A. Fl. Brown, B. j. Sibbert, Joe
Christensen and Hover kept the ex-
perts guessing all the time The shoot
for the $500 gun yesterday afternoon
was won by Henry Meeves who broke
"a out of %. His opponents were
Hughes, White and Kline. Henry
does not use an expensive, highly
polished firearm-an ordinary old
pump suits him just as we'll. In every
event he had the professionals guess
ing and worrying. The tournament
was success throughout. The score
will be published later.

made in the tax for the support OF the
insane, the poor, and for soldiers re-
lief. Never were the people of this
county better able.to pay their taxes.
and never have they been lower than
at present. Although political oppo-
nents, the Review wishes to give full
credit to the board of supervisors for
the able management which has placed
the county out of debt and at the same
time allowed reduction on taxes. At
the same time we would also call at
tention to the fact that it is the Nc
Kinley prosperity which has increased
the valuation of the property of the
county and which is one of the large
factors in making this reduction pos
sible. The Review has had little to
say concerning the court house propo-
sition, believing that this is a question
which the people themselves must de-
eide on its merits, but we would re-
spectfullY call the attention of the vo-
tiers to the fact that an additional levy
for the purpose of a court house would
not perceptibly increase the taxes of
the county over those paid this year,
and that the people would have some
thing of value to show for their money.
