HowE's MOVING PICTURES.
Assembly Hall was too Small to Accom-
modate the Crowd

The Lyman Howe Moving Picture
Company at Assembly hall last Thurs
day evening was the best drawing at
traction ever appearing In that hall.
Almost eight hundred people witnessed
the performance, and many people were
turned away because they could not
get seat. Before seven o'clock only
standing room tickets were being sold.
The Lyman Howe Co. is certainly up
to-date and strictly frst-class. The
pictures are illustrated in all their real
ism and with such forcible naturalness
as to lead the audience to believe it is
looking at the actual scene instead Of
merely picture reflected on canvass.
When the picture of Mr. Mckinley.
making his public speech on the Pan
American grounds the day before the
assassination, was presented deep
hush fell over the audience and few
tears were shed. All felt its signifi-
cance. Among the other scenes were
views from China, thrilling contest in
ice catching, polo, football, and funny
pictures such as the disadvantages OF
living In fiat, Uncle Josh and Cousin
ST at theatre. Those sitting on the
front seats, at least, know how IL feels
to be run over by an automobile. One
OF the attractive pictures was a big liner
in mid-ocean battling against gigantic
waves. When part of program had been
reached where the magic pictures were
to be presented a breakdown occurred
at the power house and the electric
power, which operated the machine,
failed and that ended the moving
picture performance, although the au-
dience waited about twenty minutes
hoping the electric power would be
turned on again.
The work of Jay Paige, the clay
modeller, was appreciated by tie large
audience. Paige is a genius in his line
OF work.
Prof. Lenkerd engaged the Lyman
Howe Co. to give another exhibition in
this place in May, at which time an
entirely new program will be given
There was mix up on reserved seats
Thursday evening which made it a
little annoying and unpleasant for those
who found somebody else IN their seats,
but that trouble will not occur again.
Hereafter small tickets will be used for
i all entertainments same as is used on
lecture course.

To all Whom it Concerns.

l am informed that my nomination
for city council is not wanted by some
on the ground, as | understand, because
l am not property holder, and a
stranger in the city, but much to the
contrary think, as it was shown at the
primary when came out ahead, which
was left entirely to the people at large
to cast their votes for whom they pleas
ed without the solicitation upon my
part, and those people knew we'll,
think, who they were voting for, and
are working for an honest man for an
honest government. An Office seeking
the man.
Now to those who have opposed me
in the manner in which they have,
STOPPING to such trickery which would
make any man, who has manhood at all T.,
blood run cold, OF which the report is
false and without any foundation at all.
They had better get their cunning suits
on, and plenty Of ammunition, for | am
going with hot shot and believe the
people will know just as much what
they are doing on election day for a
good and honest government as they
knew what they were doing when they
selected me on their ticket at the prim-
AIRY candidate for city council. The
same will be left to the people for their
choice.
II elected / will serve the city in
every way honorable to the best OF my
ability, that no man may become
ashamed OF his vote In the future.
II am defeated l will accept the
same manfully, and not shamefully, and
at any time can be of any service to
this city will be pleased to lend help
ing hand.
Study the above carefully, however,
for ! cannot help thinking that the citi.
zens know when they have the right
man In the right place.
Thanking you one and all for the pas
and future am
Yours respectfully,
WILLIAM BENNETT.

County and City Valuations.

Mr.. Rosewater: Assume that TO be 80;
that is the tangible property. The county
assessment was supposed to be 20 per cent.
/ know the city assessment was higher,
but that $1,000 may be right as to the
county. They made an assessment last
year OF 20 per cent of the total value. Nov
that would be one-hfth. They have been
raising our assessment lately because we
have been changing the machinery.

No Call for Hair-spIittinE.

Mr.. Rosewater: well, Of course, that is
not so material. l don't suppose there
would be any ~hair-splitting whether It
would be 5 OF 6 per cent, because you are
not going to the very last penny in this
taxation. / suppose there will be a broad
margin allowed the railroads, and / am
willing to see that. Now II the road is
sued its stock and the people who bought
the stock paid the money and the road vas
built with that money, the stocks would
only represent the cost Of the road and
there would be no franchise tax. simply
because the tangible property Of the road
would be worth the stock. But II S26,-
900 Of bonds were issued and on top OF
that they we're earning 5 per cent then
/ would say to assess that, inasmuch as the
bonds would represent the franchise. but
suppose the roads were built differently, a.
they should be. and the money was put up
for the stock before they built the road
or issued stock for Il, then the road
would be assessed and the stock would not

but Il is because Il is not all being sold
at once that II has a price, Here comes
the question. Tit valuation is supposed
to be on a cash basis. Now the assessors,
while IL is not legal, have agreed to under
value property and they have undervalued
Il in some instance, a. l am told do not
know that-so as to only bring in 10 per
cent. In some instances is per cent, come
20, and in our town proper It comes to 40
per cent and in the county only 20 per
cent"
The Auditors: 9TH assessors agreed on
one-sixth."
Mr.. Rosewater: We'll. IL they did, then
that Is 1t. In 1891 1t was assessed at 20
per cent. Now assuming that one county
is In one shape and one another, 1t seems
like this. that IL you could figure out the
valuation Of each county and its pro rata
so as to say-to Neutrality-suspicious. a re-
turn has been made Of 81, 900, 900 and there
are $40, 000, 900 worth in the county, being
assessed at one-tenth. Now, in another
county they might return ST. 00, 900 and II
would represent instead OF $40, 900, 900 only
5000, 900, and in some other counties So
000, 900. Now the aggregate Of the whole
would give you the average. Suppose there
was 800, 900, 900 returned to you and one
county had returned Il to you at one-tenth,
another at one-hfteenth, another at one
twentieth and you come to aggregate 1t
together, you would strike about the aver
age Of what the whole state is being as
sessed for. Now, II the law would per-
NIT It, 1 should say that the roads should
be assessed according to a standard in
each county, that is, II a county returns
ten miles OF road 1t should be taxed pro-
~portionately with the other property in the
county. That would be reasonable and
right, and then the railroad property OF
that county would be assessed proportions
ately with all other property Of that
county"
The Governors; Now you stated the other
day hat in your opinion the railroads
ought to pay one-sixth Of the total tax
Of the state"
