ATCHISON TAX TANGLE.
Question About Assessment of the
Lighting Plant and City Railway.

J. NJ. Chfsham and Bale p. Wag-
gener of Atchison were in town Mon
day for the purpose of Strengthening
out a queer tax tangle. 1t seems that
, the city railway and the city electric
sight plant are owned by the same
Company, in Atchison. The question
IS whether the state tax commission
fs going to assess the light and power
Giant when it assesses the railway, or
whether the city assessors and the
state tax commission are both going
to assess the lighting and power
plant.
The street railway people of both
Topeka and Atchison want it fixed so
that they won't have to wrest1e with
both assessments, and the probability
Is that the tax commission will make
the assessment of the power and light
plant and then certify the amount of
that assessment to the county clerk to
be placed to the county tax rolls.

BUY THE PRISON TwINE.
Governor Hoch Urges Its Use by
Kansas Farmers.

A printed circular has been issued
over the signature of Governor Hoch.
urging the farmers of Kansas to buy
prison binding Irvine at the low prices
made for the present season.
Governor Hoch calls attention to the
fact that the prison Irvine is the best
Irvine, as well as the cheapest Irvine,
on the market, and that by buying
prison Irvine, it will be possible to pay
q good share of the running expenses
of the state penitentiary. instead of
contributing profits to the harvester
trust.
The sale of prison Irvine has been
slow thus far. owing to the fact that
the farmers are waiting to see how
their wheat turns out before ordering
Irvine. The message of Governor
Hoch is intended to encourage the
purchase of prison Irvine, when the
time comes to buy.
A copy of the governors circular
will be sent to every country and city
newspaper in the state.
