voted to sustain the assessment at

ton. 1 said gentlemen l do not

stated they had not given me a

his saloon fixtures, pool table,

collect the same IL 1t should

Mr.. Gblett's motion to reduce
the assessment to 5000 was not

man who deals in the anguish
and misery of helpless women and
children went forth rejoicing.
Then a woman who also had
a friend on the board came in.
Her assessment was $40 above
