FRANCHISES To- BE
REACHED NEXT WEEK
Board of Equalization Commit
tee Viii Consider Them
i'm Secret.

In cleaning up odds and ends of its
work that had been hanging over from
other sessions the state board of equal
| iZation put in a busy day yesterday.
The division of the schedule COM
prising goods and merchandise of mer-
chants, the equalization of which was
begun on the previous day, was COM
pleted on the same basis as it was
begun.
st. Louis county, which was one of
the few whose returns were conspicu-
ously lower than the assessment of last
year, was subjected to an increase of
Is per cent, which leaves it still some
what short of the standard fixed by
the board-an advance of 10 per cent
over the assessment of last year. The
returns for this year were $1,629, 1922,
and the assessment of last year ST.
928197. 81
Waseca County Raised 100 Per Cent.
In this same class Waseca county
returned @S125,97t this year as COM
pared with an assessment of $251, 1903
last year, and it's returns were raised
100 per cent.
The board also disposed of class 81
of the schedule. a miscellaneous division
to take in all property not specifically
classified in one of the other columns.
By reason Of the nature of this dfvi-
sion no comparison with the assess
ment of last year could consistently be
made, and the board decided upon a
level increase of 10 per cent throughout
the entire state, to conform as far as
possible to its treatment of other clas-
Situations of property. The returns
under this head for this year aggre-
gate $5,52O,687, and consequently the
assessment in general for the state as
fixed by the board is $6,072,755.
The board returned to the class in
which banking institutions are listed
for the purpose of reconsidering the
assessments of some of the private
banks and trust companies that had
been notified to appear. Principal
among them was the Security Trust
company of this city whose assessment
the board had proposed to increase
400 per cent above it's return of ST.
600.
Will Quiz Minneapolis Companies.
E. S. Durment appeared for the
trust company and made an argument
which resulted in cutting the increase
down. to 200 per cent. From Mr.. Dur
ment as to- trust companies in general
and their me thods of conducting bust
ness the board gained some Informal
ton upon which it decided to summon
all of the Minneapolis companies of
that character to appear and show why
their respective assessments should not
be raised .~--.
At the time of adjournment Chair
man Cooley announced that the COM
mittee on franchises of public service
corporations will meet Tuesday morn
ing at o'clock in secret session, and
that the governor and attorney general
viii probably be present at the meet
ing.

Drueeed and Robbed of $4,000.

Having lost $4,000 which he had received
from the sale of Dakota cattle, that he
had brought to South ST.. Paul and St
Louis for sale, Nels Golackson was last
night. sent back to his home in North
Dakota in the care of persons who came
to st. Paul for him..
Golackson was picked UP in a stupor
by policeman last Saturday night and
awoke Sunday morning in a peculiar
condition. He could not control his ar
ticulation and his mind seemed to be af-
fected. He was transferred to the county
Jail, where he was held till his friends
were heard from.
Golackson disposed of a herd of cattle
belonging to- his wife and is thought to
have received $1,000 for the shipment.
His money had disappeared when he was
picked UP by the police, but it is thought
that he lost his. money in Minneapolis,
which city he left Saturday to come to
st. Paul. The police suspect that he was
drugged and robbed.

Northern Farmers Go Into
Dairy Business.

w. w. P. Mcconnell, state dairy and
food commissioner, has gone to Mentor
to attend a general meeting of the
dairymen of that vicinity to be held to-
day.
Diaries are multiplying in the north
ern part of the state at a rate that Is
really surprising" says Mr.. McCOn-
nell. "The farmers of that district are
becoming more and more convinced
that they must take up something be-
side wheat, and the success that has
been achieved by those that have gone
into dairy pursuits has induced a num-
Der of others to do likewise For a
long time our dairies were all in the
southern part of the state, but now we
have them all over and they are in
creasing at rapid rate"

JACKSON DAY FROST ON HARRI.
son BOOM.

As a result of the intention to boom
the candidacy of Mayor Harrison for
reelection. the jackson day banquet
at the IrOIuOis Club was the chllliest
kind of u frost.
Instead of being attended by the hun.
dreds Of the flower Of the Democracy
who 1t was expected would he present,
a little over seventy guests sat down
to the banquet.
The splendid citizens ana business
men who constitute the cream of tho
Democracy of Chicago refused to be
used to pull Harrison's chestnurs out
of the fyp or to be made II tail to the
City III lite.
The ,itempt to exploit HarrisOn's
campaign for renewal OF his cOnncc.
ton with the City Hall payroll acted
as u boomerang, ana instead of being
II boost, proved to he n wet blanket.
Thus an occasion which might have
been made Il credit and an honor 10
the Democratic party proved the
drearest and most dismal function
ever brought of under the auspices of
the lroquOis or any other club In the
city of Chicago.
II the incident proves anything AT
all, II proves that the best element OF
the Democratic party Is not with Har'
rlson and Is utterly opposed to his re
election this time.

Never in the history of municipal
elections I'm Chicago were there more
unfair primaries than those held on
Saturday last in the Twenty-iirst

Police were drafted into the ward by
the score from outlying stations. and
all who dared approach the polling
places and who could not prove they
wore the City Hall tag and collar re-
ccivcd rough treatment indeed ut the
hands of the bluecoats.
Men were dragged out of line. buff
feted about the streets. chased up nj
lcyways. beaten and arrested. No
man or set of men could buck that
bluecoat line. 1t was largely primary
OF the police force.
To crown all this. IL is alleged that
an enormous SUM of money thc
amount is placed at $35.000 was spent
In the ward ut these extraordinary pri-
marics.
Small wonder that the face of the
returns showed that the Pay-Roll
Brigade won out and that Robert f..
