to the board Of what they assert is an UNI
just distribution OF the personal assess
ment Of the water company among the
five municipalities in which 1t operates.
The personal assessment as it now stands
Is $3,500,O0 On a one-fifth basis this
amounts to SIOO.0O O The assessor has dis
tributed this as follows: Omaha, $4,000;
South Omaha, $4,000: Florence, $4,000; Dun
dee, $4,000; East Omaha. 5000. The Flor
ence people assert the $4,000 apportioned
to the village is too low in comparison with
