II will be noticed that while the tendency
has been to report lower values on all these
items. they have not been reported on a
gradual decline in all cases. The highest
assessment made in the state on most
classes Of property was in 1893. In that
year improved lands in Douglas county were
assessed at $15.43, while in 1900 they were
assessed at but $11.S2. In Clay county i'm
proved lands in 1898 were assessed
at but $3.50, while in 1900 they
were assessed at but S3.13. In Ian
caster county in 1893 lands were assessed
at IS SO and in 1900 at but s4.62, while in
Saline county they reported improved lands
in 1893 at a Valuation Of S10.55 per acre,
which were reported in 1900 at but $3.43.
So 1t would appear to an investigator that
Saline county needed money in 1898 and that
their immediate wants we're not so pressing
in 1900, but this change In valuation Of
their property obliged the railroads in the
county to pay one-hfth OF the taxes paid in
the county for the year 1900, while in 1898
they were only obliged to pay one-tenth
of the amount collected.
Some newspaper critics who advocate a
material advance in the assessment Of rail-
road property on account Of their better
ment and conditions, and the improvements
that have been made in the past ten years
should carefully consider the figures given
in Fridays advertisement. 1t will be no
ticed that there has been an increase in acre
age OF improved lands returned for taxation
amounting to 62.7 pr cent of the lands re-
ported in 1889. This is accounted for by
the fact that in 1889 large numbers Of home
steaders we're still perfecting titles to their
property and were relieved from taxation
IN the interim. II should be noticed that

This increase in buildings in the cities,
and the vast increase in taxable improved
lands, which should have added a hundred
millions of dollars to the grand assessment
roll of the state, would much more than
make up for any amount OF Improvement
on railroad property in the same time. In
other words, improvement in the state has
more than kept pace with improvement In
the railroads.
These decreases OF valuation In Douglas
and Lancaster counties were to such an ex-
tent that there was not sufficient taxable
property returned in the cities of Lincoln
and Omaha to raise SUFFICIENT revenue on
which to successfully carry on the city ad-
ministratlon without a tax levy that would
be almost prohibitory, and today the rate
of valuation is placed so low that the rate
of taxation Is entirely out of line with any
other city ia this section Of the country.
These cities succeeded in having a special
law passed for the purpose Of raising rev.
enues In these two places, and today they
report one set of valuations for city taxation
and another for that Of the state and county,
and the result is that in their reports the
values for taxation for county and state
purposes practically run riot.
A marked example of the injustice done
the cities themselves by this agreement is
for reports to go out that the assessed val
uation per capita in Omaha is the lowest in
any city west of the Mississippi, which
would Indicate to the casual investigator
that the place was poverty-stricken, and
Mt the same time this low valuation obliges
q high levy that throws an investor into
panic.
1t is the high levy for taxation that today
prevents that natural rush Of improvement
In Omaha that is seen in other cities. Now
investors do not know that they can invest
here and only pay one-tenth Of theil
investment, and the agitation to tax stocks
and bonds of railroads in addition to thelI
other values would confirm them in a be-
aief that they would not be fairly treated.

TRUTH.

What is truth? We often ask,
But to answer is a task
One can but indefinitely do;
Truth is not the same
To any two you name;
What's truth to me is not the truth to you
This world rs mostiy sham,
What seem, not what am,
Few of US are doing as we think;
What others say is so,
Wo're contented to let go;
From being odd the most of us do shrink.
What's truth to you and me,
So far as can see,
Is what we truly, honestly, believe:
To be honest, true, In fact,
As we think, so must we act,
To act otherwise is basely to deceive.
Though the thought be full of pain,
Beliefs will not remain;
Be sure that truth will triumph In the fight
What's been true through all the past
May be proven false at last,
But greater truth has come to shed its light
OF the great beyond the grave,
What is truth? To know crave;
Is Mans last resting place beneath the sod9
Or has he 4 living soul?
May he strive and win the goal?
To me, tits truth that we may live with God

men employed, and $50 year for each
man, which, deducted from $3.50 gives
us 1915 as his wages for a year. just
to show that we can be liberal-with
other peoples money-we will take it
for granted that these 5000 skilled
laborers own fully one half of the cap
ital stock; then, 1t is as transparent as
ether, they would be entitled to an in
crease in dividends equal to just one
half the amount cut off from their
wages, or 49,. so each. This $37 so added
to $675 will give US $712.5O, or $37. so
less than his wages amounted to before
the 10 per cent reduction took place.
In other words, the 10 per cent reduc-
tion in wages is equal to taking $37. so
from each working stockholder of the
concern, and giving it to the non-work-
ing stockholders. If this is possible
solution of the labor question then God
help the laborer!
Labor problems are hard nuts to
crack, and much thought has been
wasted on them. But thought is pre-
cious; more precious than gold; alto
gether too precious to be wasted. The
writer of Possible Solution" seems
to be anxious to escape the charge of
wasting thought, and if such is really
his object the Indications are that be
will succeed. III. S., JR.

The Evolution
of Engineering,

Paper Read Before the Chaaaauqua Circle.
The engineering instinct in man prob
ably received its first impetus from his
need of shelter. When he fashioned
for himself house, whether he scooped
it from hillside, wove it from the
branches of trees, or built it wigwam
fashion of poles and skins, he made
use of engineering principles, whether
or not he was conscious of the fact. As
his needs increased with his advance
in civilization, he devised for himself
chariots for land travel, and rude boats
with which he navigated his native
streams. Probably his next achieve
ments were in the nature of road and
bridge making.
We find the first enduring records of
engineering knowledge in Egypt. At
an earlier date than we can establish
from historical records, her inhabitants
had bnilded the pyramids and the
massive columns of her temples. The
great weight of the material used in
these structures must have made
necessary various engineering devices,
and the greatest scientists of this, the
most scientific age of the world, view
with wonder and awe these wonderful
works, their secrets still guarded by the
mummies of the men who created them.
But civilization passed from Egypt,
and her apostles, the engineers, bore
her torch among other peoples. The
Assyrians and Babylonians adopted
both the pyramids and columns of
Egypt. altho both were built Of more
perishable material. Tho possibly not

"Mind we say is man-every feeling,
every action, is but obeying the com-
mands of one of its unseen faculties:
infiame or injure it, and the most gifted
genius is maniac" The substitution
of the word "brain" for "it,' would

AT FIRST GLANCE
1t Would Appear That Local
Remedies Would be Best For
Cure of Catarrh.

1t would seem at first glance that
catarrh being a disease of the mucous
membrane, that salves, sprays, ETC.,
being applied directly to the mcm-
branes of the nose and throat would
be the most rational treatment but
this has been proven not TO be true.
The mucous membrane is made and
repaired from the blood and catarrh
is a blood disease and any remedy to
make a permanent cure must act OH
the blood and when the blood Is puri-
fed from catarrhal poison, the secre-
tions from the mucous membrane will
become natural and healthy.
In this climate, thousands of people
seem scarcely ever free from some
form of catarrh; 1t gets better at times
but each winter becomes gradually
deeper seated and after a time the
sufferer resigns himself to 1t as nee
essary evil
Catanrh cures are almost az numer-
ous as catarrh sufferers but are near
ly all inconvenient and ineffective as
to render their use a nuisance nearly
as annoying as catarrh itself; anyone
who has used douches, sprays and
powders will bear witness to their in
convenience and failure to really cure,
There are number of excellent III
ternal remedies for catarrh, but prob
ably the best and certainly the safest
