The state Board of Assessment this alter
noon discussed a resolution introduced b.
Secretary of State Junkin to apportion the
rolling stock and intangible property OF
railroads in the same ratio as the tangible
property is apportioned. That is the fran
chise and rolling stock will be apportioned
according to the various lines and not ac-
cording to the systems. Instead of adopt
ing the resolution the board referred 1t to
the attorney generation an opinion as to
it's legality. there being some question
about it. The terminal tax law provides
the rolling stock and franchise shall be
apportioned on a mileage basis over the
system and the board is not sure that
ii can be apportioued according to the ines
which go to make up the system. The
adoption or rejection of the resolution viii
make considerable difference in the opera
ton Of theterminal tax law The board for
mally adopted the figures recently pub
lished showing the value Of the various
roads.

Great Fair in Prospect.
Secretary Mellor's face assumes a broad
smile whenever the coming state fair, Au-
gust 81 to September 4, is mentioned. He
says the exhibitors are coming in all de-
partments in such numbers that he. can
now assert positively that the 1908 fair will
eclipse all former great fairs held in Ne
braska. Applications in the horse and
swine departments are now up to the pres

tie barn just completed will hold $50 head
of the finest show cattle in the United
states. Application for spare for county
exhibits in Agricultural han is being re-
ceived. The educational department will
occupy a new building and will be the best
educational exhibit shown in any state in
the union during the year 1905. The great
machinery exhibit OF last year promises to
be surpassed. The State Board OF Horti-
culture, in charge of the horticultural eX-
hibit, is predicting a better show than ever.

ing its patrons with high class attractions
like Paine's Eruption OF Mount Vesuvius''
and Carnival OF Venice" with its cast OF
500 people and it's use OF $1,000 of fireworks
each night, the Liberati Military band and
grand opera company, with sixty people,
eighteen OF whom are recognized grand OPP
era singers of national reputation, the grand
racing program and many smaller events,
is bringing the Nebraska fair into favor

fairs of the United States.
