big increase IN VALUE
Total Assessed Value of Property in
~ the State Much Greater Than
r. '~ " g.. Last Year. >..
Real Property Increase Some 81, soc, 200
Over the Figures of the -.
Assessors. -
Total Valuation Of Property Will be
Considerably More Than $12o, ,ooo-
600 In State.

The total assessed valuation of prop
erty in the state this year will be con-
siderably greater, than that of last
year. The increases in real estate
assessment made by the state board
amount to more than $6,OOG,OOO. Real
property was returned by the assessors
through the state at $7O,255, ,671. The
county boards Of equalization raised
these figures to $71 ,599,4S7. When
the state board completed their equal
ization, the total figures stood at SIT
739,637, an increase of 81, 100000 over
the figures first returned by the asses
sors.
AS equalized by the state board, the
figures show there are 1S,929.742 acres
of land on the tax rolls of the state.
The value of the land exclusive of
structures is $62,79O,497. Structures
on the land are assessed at So, ,45O,4 ,466.
Town lots in the state are assessed at
$4,9S3,920 and structures on lots at
S6,514, ,764.
The extent to which the assessed val
uation of land is increased in the big
counties, is shown in the following ap-
proximate figures: Cass county is in
creased about 100000 from the figures
returned by the county board; Traill
county is increased 100000; Walsh
county is increased little more than
a million dollars; Richland gets An
$S00,00O increase; Barnes is increased
$20o,000; Grand Forks is increased
over million dollars; Morton gets a
boost of half million; Pembina is in
creased $3.50, 600; Ramsey $500, 900 and
Stark 100000. The other counties
are increased by only small amounts.
The total personal property values in
the state are s25, ,229,7O6. These fig
ures will probably be increased by the
state board to approximately $26, 500,
600. Taking these figures, the follow
ifg would show the approximate total

There are hundreds OF marriageable
helresses in the Indian Territory, and
many are beautiful Probably 3O0O
young Indian women will soon come in
to possession of lands worth 5000 to
each one. The fullbloods are slovenly
white men. In order to marry one OF
these Indian heiresses man must be
come a member of the Choctaw or Chick
asaw tribes, obligating himself to obey
all the laws and customs of the tribe
The fortune hunter who would marry a
Chickasaw heIress must pay wedding
fee OF $40 to the tribe, but it costs only
81 so to become a Choctaw. When a
white adventurer becomes a squawman
he becomes one of the tribe, ard is en-
titled to his part OF the land to be allot-
ted to the individual members OF the
tribe This does not interfere with the
share which goes to his wife, so that
when the allotment is worth SIS 900 20

tunity for local admirers of dusky, dark
eyed maidens.

An Irishman standing near, hearing
the remark replied:
"Phat's thot about a China union
Wen have no China unions in this

"Who said anything about a China
union? l say man what wants bro
lection in this country must jine a

"There you go again with your China
union. Well have no China unions

"Well," said the Irishman, "phy

Messrs, Newell and Pinchot OF Washing
ton d. c arrived in Antelope, where
they were met by large number OF the
| prominent stockmen from this vicinity
who had been invited to meet them and
discuss stock interests, saws the Ante

the Occidental parlors, and many ques-
| tons Of interest to stockmen were dis
| cussed at length Mr.. Pinchot, who is
at the head oil the Forestry Department,
| had been requested by the head of the
Interior Department TO investigate the
matter OF sheep-grazing upon forest re-
serves, and to ascertain as nearly as
possible Just what the effect was, With
this object in view, he questioned a mum.
ber OF stockmen OF long residence here,
and who had been sending sheep to the
mountains for from 10 to Is years, and
their replies and the information he OBJ.
tained was most satisfactory. Mr.. Pin
chot's report to the Interior Department
upon this important question will no
doubt do much towards disa busng their
minds of many erroneous ideas in regard |
to the pasturage of sheep on the re-
serves.
Mr.. Newell, who is Chief Hydrogra |
pher OF the Geological Department, is |
making a trip through this section of
country, in the interest of Government |
Irrigation, and looking up sites for reser-
voirs. From this place, the party goes
to Prinevile bv way of Agency Plains,
where Mr.. Newell will investigate the
feasibility of getting water from the Des
chutes onto that large body ofarid land
In speaking of his trip into this section
ot the state, Mr.. Newell expressed him
self as most agreeably surprised, and
said that he expected to find large
ava covered asea, whereas he found a
splendid agricultural district.
Altogether the meeting was most pleas.

dea that the Interior Department was
opposed to the pssturage OF sheep upon
crest reserves was corrected hy Mr..

'lsmoring for the closing of the reserves,

STILL ON THE CRUISE TO SANTIAGO
counsel's Intention Is to Go into the
Retrograde Movement, to Consider
the Reconnaissance, the coalina
Question and the Famous Loop.

Washington, Oct 29-Judge Advo-
cate Lemly lost no time in beginning
his interrogations of Schley after the
court of inquiry convened today.
When the court adjourned yesterday
he was still questioning the witness
with reference to the cruise from Glen
fuegos to Santiago, and he resumed
today where he left off yesterday, ask
ing number of questions relating to
the condition of the weather on May.
25 and 26, the dates of the voyage. He
also reverted to detaching the Eagle
from the flying squadron and brought
the witness to consideration of sew
eral other minor details before coming
to the meeting with the scout boats
twenty-five miles south of Santiago on
the evening of May &c, when the ret
Irograde movement toward Key West
in search of coal was begun. The in
| tention was to go into this retrograde
movement later in the day and also to
consider in minute detail the recon-
Nuisance of May 81, tibet coaling ques-
ton, and the famous loops of the
Brooklyn. Lemly is hopeful of com
pleting his questions today but admit
ted the outlook in that direction is not
altogether promising.

LYNcHING BEE FRUSTRATED.
Two Hundred Men Gathered Around
Sioux CITY Jail.

Sioux City, Oct. pa lynching bee
was broken up here last night and J.
w. Wilkinson, a steam filter who car
ried long rope, was put behind the
same bars which recently imprisoned
James Mcclure, whom Wilkinson and
his followers would have lynched.
About 200 people were gathered
around the county Jail when Chief of
Police Melon and a detachment of Of
ficers arrived. Melon unceremonious-
ly grabbed Wilkinson, lifted him bod
lily into his buggy and hurried him off
to the police station.
Mcclure on Sunday morning enticed
Ambrose Manahan, a messenger boy,
to shack in the old Soudan district
and there made him submit to his re-
voting demands. Sodomy is the
charge against him. Further trouble
is not looked for.
