For man to be compelled to give
up a good situation and leave the city
because he cannot find proper accom-
modations for himself and family
seems to be pretty tough proposi-
tion, yet such cases are not unusual

position or enters into business in this
community and brings a wife and
| family to house. will often find that
he is up against the real thing. Par
ties having accommodations of that
sort are sometimes compelled to set

so numerous and persistent. All Of

The total assessed valuation of
property in the state Of Colorado un-
der the revenue law of 1901 amounts
to S465 ,S74.2SS. The railroads share
of this amount is s123 ,293,S61, or 26
$40 per cent of the total value 'of the
state. On this basis the state and
counties will realize sl0.275 900 The
above shows what good financiers the
| Fusion legislators are. But 1t is safe
to say that not one out OF 20 are tax
payers. In La Plata county there are
people who don't pay dollar in
taxes or ever did who talk the most
about tax-dodgers and want to see
individuals and corporations taxed
out of existence for the benefit of a
horde of grafters. The Herald pre-.
diets some taxsdodgers and many in
dividuals will not pay the nominal
tax assessed against them unless the
courts compel them. It will be an
| easy matter to prove that tax assess
ments have not been just and equal
and that is what the law stands for.

MALES WORK AND WIN.
Buck the Heavyweights Early anC
Often and Win Match.

Often and Win Match
The Males scored the only touch
down in the match on Saturday after
noon against the H. A. C's. 1t was i'm
possible to kick the goal against the
high wind. Contrary to general eX-
pectatons the Males, although the
lighter team, adopted line buclling
tactics and the upshot proved the wis
dom of coach Percy Benson. The
Males are hardly fast enough around
the ends and from the first, considering
also the somewhat shattered condition
of their team, it was evident that ag-
gressiVe measures would be their only
chance of winning. They took them
and bent, buckled and burst the line of
the H. A. C.'s all down the field until
johnson struggled over the line five
minutes before the end of the first half.
The H A. c. line needs mending. Its
members are too prone to rely on their
combined weight and do not work hard
enough. Fernandes, who played with
the Males last season was the best man
on the H. A. c. side Saturday. In the
second half the H. A. C's began to force
the lighter Males Slowly but surely
back and it was up to the latter to play
a kicking game. The wind prevented
this being INDUCED in too frequently

Crook would have to show more con-

The absence of Cockett weakened the
H. A. c. line up while the Males got
on eXcellently despite Wright being
away. King played good football for
the Males but they are weak on team
work. There were fumbles on both sides
but the II. A. c. made most of them.
They showed indecision when they had
the ball and lack of conference when
their opponents had it. Gleason got
laid out towards the middle of the sec
ond half with a displaced muscle that
will put him out of the game for a
while.

STATE DENTISTS PAY FEES.
Is for the First Time in the History of
Iowa


Des Moines News: For the first
time since the organization of state
board of dental examiners surplus
has been surrendered to the state from
the fees received for examinations.
Previous to this time the board has
been able to make the expenses of the
various members of the board consume
all the income The amount paid into
the state treasury Monday by the sec
rotary and treasurer of the board, DR..
f. A. Lewis, of Ottumwa, is $559.4O.
The agitation of the past year since
the accounts of the board were investi-
gated by former expert accountants,
Skinner & Hedges, is believed to be re-
sponsible for the amount received at
this time. The investigation of the
former has not been concluded and no
settlement has yet been effected with
the state. A request was made of the
attorney general for an opinion wheth-
er the state can compel report from
the former boards explaining the man
ner of expenditure of the funds com.
ing into their hands for examination.
The particulars of the case were not
before the attorney general. and no
opinion given, though settlement has
not yet been made with former boards
and it is believed the governor can
compel a showing.

Il arrived here yesterday and found

"One thousand bodies have been
found buried. One hundred and sixty
persons are in the hospital at George

The details of the disaster are too

CROP OUTLOOK EXCELLENT.
Director Sage Says it Was Never Bet

The general outlook for field crops
has never been better in the middle of
May, says j. r. Sage, director of the
Iowa climate and crop service, in the
weekly crop bulletin for the week end
ing yesterday. The bulletin says:
The average temperature was slight
ny below normal the past week, with
more than usual cloudiness and show
cry weather. The conditions were
very favorable for pastures, meadows
and small grain. Planting operations
were delayed to some extent, but the
work is we'll advanced in the northern
section, and nearly completed in the
southern section, the reports indicat-
ling an increased acreage of corn in all
districts. termination has been gen.
orally satisfactory in early planted
fields, showing notable vitality of seed.
| The fields are in excellent filth, and
the dry subsoil readily absorbs the
heavy rainfall, preventing damage
from excess of moisture at the surface.
The general outlook for field crops has
never been better at the middle of
May. There are no reports of damage
to fruit from effects Of low tempera-
ture.

the company is now negotiating for
the use of the Rock Island tracks from
Oskaloosa to Harvey, and the Burling-
ton-Des Moines trains will run via Os-
kaloosa and from there to Harvey over
the Rock Island tracks, connecting
here with their Abba and Des Moines
branch. 1t is also understood that if
the road builds line at any future
time from Oskaloosa to connect with
their Des Moines branch, they will
cross the river at Harvey instead of
Tracy as was at first supposed and will
use the Rock Island bridge over the
river there, which is we'll built and
will carry two tracks. This will give
Harvey the best shipping facilities of
any town in Marion county.
