observe that thTee-fourths OF the H.

Ia, returned TO Baltimore city, as well
as the money accruIng from the sale
OF the State roads bonds, are deducted
from the ordinary receipts, since they
form no part OF the revenues OF the
state for governmental purposes.

Revenues from Corporations.
There was paid into the treasury
during the past fiscal year from tax
on gross receipts OF corporations the
sum OF S7i5,602.72, which has not
been credited 10 Baltimore city, as I
have seen In many statements, for the
sufficient reason that OF this sum

proportion Of the remaining sum, yet

yet In every statement Issued, SO far
as the writer has seen, this item is
credited as being paid by Baltimore
city, because a large majority of the
corporations are located within said

property does not follow the sItus OF

Z FIRST SALES,
APRIL |, 2 AND 3


The promoters of the Glendive
Horse Sales, S. B. Chappell and Geo.
NJ Beasley. intend to make long
season Of it this year. Advertising
matter has already been distributed
for the first sales, which take place
on April l, 2 and 3. The gentlemen
are thorough believers in publicity
of the right kind, and are intending
to conduct an advertising campaign
this year, which will bring buyers
here from every part Of the country,
and no doubt Canada also.
Although last years sales were
not started until very late in the
season, they thoroughly demonstra-
ted the possibility Of this industry
in Glendive. Situated as is this city
in the very heart of the greatest
horse breeding and stock producing
district in the world, there seems
every promise that the sales can be
increased to such an extent, that
they will surpass anything else Of
the kind in the world. IF business
acumen and thorough hustle figure
in the result, Messrs. Chappell and
