Instructions to Deputy County
Assesaors.

HSeSooohos
County Assessor Haumont has
decided to have no meeting of
deputy assessors this year but
will provide each with such in
structions from time to time as
he deems necessary to secure as
near as possible an equitable as
sessment of all property. The
following is copy of the first
letter of instructions mailed to
his deputies:
To Deputy Assessors Custer Co:
Please pay strict attention to
the following instructions, so
that our work may be done in an
acceptable manner. Write in
good plain characters and be sure
to have all names spelled cor
rectly. Give post office address.
Where women are assessed write
their first names in full and make
out seperate schedule for the
husbands poll tax, even if he has
no property assessed in his name.
Where you have incorporated
Villages in your precinct, mark
plainly the names of all those
liable to village or city tax. Be
sure to have the number of the
road and school districts right.
Mistakes in that particular
cause much annoyance. Always
put the value of the different
items, so that if you divide it by
five you have no cents in your
quotient. On small items you
may have to add to the value Of
some, and deduct from the value
of others. Where anyone has
credits which he can offset by
debts, he must use the special
credit blank, enter his credits
thereon, also his debts. Then
subtract the debts from the
credits and enter the balance, if
any, at the proper place on the
schedule, pin the blank to the
schedule and keep the two to-
gether. The actual value of
notes, bonds or mortgages, repre-
senting moneys loaned or invest
ed, shall not be rednced or dimin-
ished by subtracting therefrom
the debts owing by the person
assessed who owns such notes,
bonds or mortgages. Credits
evidenced by book accounts and
the like, may be offset by debts
of like character only. Rent due
is taXeable as a credit. Rent to
grow due is part of the land
resident to it and therefore is not
subject to taxation. List also as
credits, claims due from the
county. Last year a good por.
ton of the money in the county
was not accounted for. ! want
to get better results this year
and have reason to blame some
of the deputies for not obtaining
better results along that line

ty and he who does not do it, de-

Applications received too late to
be included in the contest will
be returned to applicants" a.
A letter from Mr.. Bishop,
dated March 20, says: ITO the
first one hundred boys who apply,
entering either the corn or po-
tato contest, will be furnished
free with quantity of macroni
wheat { durum) for the wheat con-
test. We hope number of your
boys may enter in time to get
some of the seed wheat. Last
year we had thirty-one boys from
Custer county in the corn con.
test. So far this year we have
had only one registration from
your county"
Those who enter either the
corn or potato contest will receive
sugar beet seed free if they men.

beet contests are open to girls as
well as boys. Let our boys and
girls make good showing this
year. Fl. M. PINcKNEY,

SUDDEN DEATH.
Drops Dead On Her Way Home From
Tabernacle Meetings.

Mrs. Melvin Lee dropped dead
Monday night on her way home
from the tabernacle meetings
where she attended with her
husband.
They did not remain until the
after-meeting but left during the
first song after Rev. Mcconnell
had finished his sermon about
10 o'clock. When they reached
the depot Mrs. Lee complained
of her head hurting. She had
been having neuralgia for two or
three days.
She told her husband when
they reached the corner of the
old Imam hotel building that
she felt she could not make it
home. They had gone only a
short distance when her
head dropped over on the shoulders
Of her husband and she exclaimed
20 Melvin!" Those were the
last words she uttered. From
there she was carried to the
Globe Hotel and medical assist
ance was called but she never re-
gained consciousness. The doc
tor assigned the cause of her
death to neuralgia of her head
going to her heart.
She leaves husband and four
children to mourn her death.
Mrs. Minnie Maupin, of Omaha,
Mrs. Kitty Moore, south of town
and two sons, John and Will, who
reside at home.
Her funeral was conducted
from the Baptist church vester-
day at 2 o'clock by Rev. Levack.
Her sister, Mrs. w. F. Cook, of
Sioux City, Iowa, whom she had
not seen for 10 years, arrived on
43 about three o'clock Tuesday
morning bnt too late to see her
alive.
Her remains were laid to rest
in the Broken Bow Cemetery.

serves the punishment the law
provides. Assess fat cattle and
hogs by the pound and keep in
some little book a record of the
number and weights ofthe differ
ent punches of fat cattle assessed
in your precinct. This is very
important and helps in equal
izing. That record should be
returned to me. Also mark on
the schedule the number of fat
cattle included in the whole num-
Der of cattle listed by any one
person. Every telephone Com
pany should make return of it's
gross receipts. Stock held in
cooperative telephone companies
should not be assessed when the
value of the line covers the whole
value of the stock. Apportion the
value of the telephone lines of
your precienct between the differ
ent school and road districts
through which they run.
Where people each own a
certain part Of telephone line,
assess that to them individually.
The average value of telephone
instrument is about $1,000. List
all telephone property under No.
% on schedule. Assess every
thing for what it will bring on
the farm for cash under fair
valuation, as Roosevelt says, "a
square deal according to law.
AS the assessment must be uni
form all over tht county. l will
soon send you directions as
to the average value of different
classes of property. The value
of new improvements, made since
last years assessment must be
listed by the assessors and they
must give the mum Der of section
or part of section on which such
Improvements were made. Also
do not forget the farm statistics,
and get them correct. 1t will
help our county.
