TO BOOST the
ASSESSMENT OF
S. D. RAILWAYS
Valuation Of All Express Conn
panies Increased One Hun
dred Per Cent.

Pierre. S. D., Aug. 3-~Tlse state
board OF assessment has raised the
assessed valuation of all the express
companies doing business In the state
at Il total sum of $251,l77. which is a
100 per cent. increase from previous
years.
The board is now considering the as
sessment OF railroad property, and has
already ascertained that the railroads
in former years have escaped with u
taxation SO low that Is out of all pro
portion to other taxable property In
the state. 1t is expected that they VIII
be raised considerably in order to bring
the assessed valuation on a somewhat
equal footing with all other property.
How much the raise per mile Will be
cannot be determined for some days as
the taxes requires careful investiga-
ton. After assessments have been
made all parties will be given ample
time in which to be heard.

were fishing wanted some bait. He
opened the clam inc while cutting up
the meat for bait found the pearl i'm
bedded In the side of the meat.
Parker took the pearl home and gave
1t to his wife. A travelling man Who

calm weather. the rust would spread
rapidly. but the winds have so far
obviated any damage. The crops will

IN FIELDS
STOPS HARVESTING
Of GRAIN CROPS

Yank,on. =. d., Aug. 3.-lleports are
reaching this city from farmers who
are we'll nigh discouraged at the har-
vest situation. Grain. IL good crop. is
rapidly ripening. but cannot be har-
vested on account of the water which
stands everywhere, preventing the use
of the heavy binders in the soft soil.
Some farmers have returned TO he
primitive sickle. but are making little
Roadway. Very few have dry fields and
the bulk of the small grain crop will
depend on the cessation Of the rains
long enough to dry the fields in the
next week.
