ly nominated" Knott said.
The early reports from the country
almost without exception reduced the
estimates made BY Cowherd very ma
terially. He did not come up to ex.
pectations in any Of the counties that
sent early reports. But he had put his
figures high and could stand good
loss in the country as compared with
his figures and still break even in the
country and have the cities for his
pluraIlties.
The Cowherd vote returned comes
largely from the'towns. They are bet
ter for Cowherd than the strictly rural
districts. The country vote comes In
slowly and It could upset al present
calculations. leaving Ball. or possibly
Wallace, in the lead. but with the big
city votes for Cowherd, the chances
are 80 much In the Kansas City mans
favor that the safer estimate Is that
he IL probably nominated by about
the pluralities the two cities gave
him. Harry B. Halves at midnight

The tax levy for the state is nine
tenths Of q mill, which will raise g.

property has been increased practi-
cally six times, or the value Of prop
erty that was assessed has been in
creased three to iive times and add
tional property, not heretofore as

up to six times the total Of year ago,
when the entire assessed valuation Of
