VALUE OF RAILROADS.
What the State Of Minnesota IL Doing
In This Matter.


r. S. Jones of Mankato is in the
city, and will spend two or three days
gathering statistics on the subject OF
railroads, says The st. Cloud Times.
This work is being done under the sup
ervision of a commission appointed at
the last legislature. The valuation OF
railroad property throughout the entire
state is being taken and Mr.. Jones is
here to get the figures for this county.
The state is taking this means of as
ertaining the value of railroad property
as a safeguard. As is well known the
railroads are fighting the payment OF
taxes based on gross earnings. These
taxes are being paid under protest and
the matter will be adjudicated in the
courts. In the meantime the state is
taking the precaution to have the valu-
alton of all railroad property in the
state at hand and in case the railroad
companies should win out in fighting
the taxation on the gross earnings OF
the roads then all the property may be
assessed at its actual value.

SEVERE ELECTRICAL STORM
Redwood Country Given a Touch of
Lightning and Rain.

Walnut Grove, May 25.-An electric
and heavy rain storm swept this sec
ton of Redwood county Wednesday
night at eight o'clock.
Lightning struck the large ice house
owned by Jacobs & Nelson of this vii
lage, setting fire to and destroying most
of the buildings. Reports from the rural
district north of the village show heavy
damage by rain and lightning
A young farmer named Charles Oh
son. eight miles north, was severely in
jured by lightning which struck his
barn while he was doing the chores. The
bolt set fire to the building and killed
two horses and three COWS. Olson, who
was badly injured, helped put out the
fire and the barn was saved. Mrs. Olson
was milking near the barn and received
bad shock.
A farmer living twelve miles north
east, while riding horse, was struck
and both man and horse were killed.
Several other small damages are re-
ported to buildings and live stock. The
hardest rain of the sea son washed corn
and other grain out of the ground.

COMMITTEE RETURNS.
No Attractions Booked Yet for the
Proposed Carnival.

From Tuesdays Daily
The committee on attractions that
went to Minneapolis for the purpose of
irving to book attractions for the pro-
posed carnival early in July returned
last night without having booked any.
The shows are pretty well engaged for
dates about the Fourth of July. There
is some talk of engaging such shows here
and there as can be found, such as DOde
Fisk'e dog and pony show. Another plan
is to hold the carnival on another date,
and still another is to let it 90 by
the board this year and to unite all
exertions in making the fair great sue
cess. instead of dividing the money and
energy between two projects. 1t is
realized that it is getting too late to adj
vertise thoroughly anything that is to
happen as soon as the Fourth of July.
The committee has been advertising
in show paper, but without success.

DECLINES THE INVITATION.
Governor Johns on Will Not Send Mil
tia to Camp With Regulars.

Washington, May 29.-The states of
Minnesota and New Hampshire have
declined to accept the invitation of the
national government, extended through
Assistant Secretary Oliver, to send
some of their militia to camp with the
regular troops this summers
Governor Johnson of Minnesota says
in his letter that the proposed partici-
patton of the state troops is impractic.
able for the reason that few of the mem.
bers of the national guard can spare
more time than ten days for the en-
campment and, as half of that time
would be consumed in getting to and
from the camp, the expenditure would
not be justified by results.
The governor of New Hampshire
makes no explanation of the declination
of the invitation simply stating that UNI
der existing circumstances it will not
be practicable for the guard to accept.

Happiness in a
Grain Of Wheat
1t Contains Every Food Element
Necessary for Mans Sustenance.

All authorities agree that fourteen
elements are needed in the human body
to sustain perfect health and that
these must be supplied in the food
taken into the system. Nature has
provided US with one single article of
food containing all of these fourteen
elements in the exact proportions ne
cessary to supply our bodies with vi
tally, strength and heat. This food.
so wonderful in it's composition. is
wheat, and intelligent men and women
are coming to realize more and more
that in the whole of the wheat is found
the secret of health and happiness.
Rich in the nitrates, or muscle max
ing elements, the carbonates, or heat
producing elements, and the phos-
pilates, or brain and nerve-making
elements. the whole grain of wheat
supplies every necessity for mans body
and mind.
This is how Malta-vita came to be
known as "The Perfect Food" for
Malta-Vita is simply the whole of the
wheat and a little salt. thoroughly
steamed and cooked in absolute clean
illness, then mixed with pure barley
malt extract, which converts the starch
of the wheat into maltese or malt
sugar, an active digestive agent and
very nutritious as well.
All grocers sell Malta-Vita. Large
package, now 10 cents.

That Manner.

From Mondays daily.
Bids were opened at the county audi
tors office Saturday afternoon for
cleaning out public ditch No. 4, in Lin
coin township. About 5000 yards of
dirt is to be moved. Only one bid was
presented and that was by Thomas
Brothers of Lake Crystal, who offered to
do the work for forty-fve cents yard.

cessive, for it was about three times
what is being bid for doing ditch work,
and the soil is sandy. Commissioner
Hanson was authorized to hire men and
teams by the day and have the work
done.
Bids were also opened for construct
ing a culvert acoss the Wenner ditch
where it crosses the highway in section
%, Mankato township. One bid was
presented in time and that was by John
Mccall, who offered to do the work for
$500, furnishing all material and labor.
This was considered reasonable and the
contract was awarded to Mr.. Mccall

Alex Bashaw and S. a. Rause appeared
with bids, but they were not opened, as
the hour had passed. ti

ADOPT NEW SYSTEM.
Confusing System Of City Book Keep
to Be Superseded.

from MONDAY s daily.
Some important changes in the system
of bookkeeping in vogue in the city
| treasurer's office are to be made in the
| near future. The system that has beer
| followed for years is out of date and
| cumbersome. 1t is almost impossible tC
find out whether there is any city indg
ment or unpaid assessment against any
particular lot, and a great deal of diff
fculty has been encountered by the of
| ficials because of this, and trouble caus-
ed to property owners.
In order to remedy this sort of thing
Deputy City Treasurer Miss Durkee Wis
tied st Paul Friday and Saturday and
went through the office of the city
treasurer of that city for the purpose OF
learning the system used there, for the
st. Paul and Mankato city charters are
practically identical, especially as re-
CARDS the manner of making special as
assessments. She has learned number
of things which she will shortly put
into practice in her office.
Under the system to be adopted il
can be told at glance whether special
| assessments have been paid, which is
not the case now. The new system viii
me such that membranes against prop
| erty can easily be traced.
| st. Paul has system of issuing GER
tificates that run one year, based or
the tax levy, and bearing four per cent
interest. These find ready sale, foi
they are not assessed. MankatO cal
avail itself of the same system as soor
as the floating Indebtedness has beer
completely extinguished, which ought to
be during the present fiscal year. The
city now has to pay about seven pei
cent interest, and the saving in interest
will be considerable The money thus
borrowed is used only for the improve
ment fund, as the money for current eX-
penses is taken from the taxes as they
come in.|
