wife and you will find the man who stole
that horse" This was the statement made
by Charles Durreen, lately of Hamilton

Merrick county at Sterling, Colo. and
charged with stealing a horse near Brad
shaw and selling 1t at Central City.
Last week man giving his name as

pose Of horse He approached William
Porter, and the latter being acquainted
with Stalnhker, and understanding that

ing over $40 for St The next day a man
by the name Of Eberley. from near Brad

saying that 1t had been stolen from him
the day before.
Inquiry was made in the neighborhood of
Durreen's former residence, and II was
found that he had relatives in Central City.

IOWA RAILROADS PROTEST
Officers Insist that Assessments Are
Growing Too Rapidly.
SAY NET EARNINGS DECREASE
state Executive Council VIII Begin
Considering Matter of Assess-
ments within Next Two
Weeks.
SAY NET EARNINGS DECREASE
(From a Staff Correspondent

DIES MONIES. la, June 90 Especial y
Wlthin'two weeks the state executive coun-
ell, sitting as an assessment board. will
take under consideration the valuation of
the railroad property In Iowa and under
take to make an assessment that will con
form to the general average OF valuation on
other property. The reports OF the railroad
companies which have all been filed and
tabulated make such n showing that there
is very little doubt that the assessments
will be reduced this year. The railroads as
a whole have not been as prosperous in
other years. The gross receipts have been
some larger than in the previous year, but
invariably the net profits have been
smaller. The total net earning of all the
railroads IN Iowa, on Iowa business as
they are able to figure 1t out, was S16,-
$4,000 or sl,650 a mile.
For n number of years under previous
administrations the policy has been TO in
crease the railroad assessments. Now
the railroads are paying nearly a million
dollars a year more taxes In Iowa than
they were ten years ago and with very
little larger mileage, The railroad men
claim that the increase In assessment OF
their property has been all too rapid.
AS soon as the railroad assessment Is
completed the council will fix the assess
ment on real property ana then figure out
the tax levy in accordance with the or
ders Of the general assembly. The council
has very little power over the tax levy
except as to assessment OF railroad and
real property The levy will be fixed
SO as to raise $4,000 Of taxes on tho
state levy.
Iowa Farms Look PrOsperOuu
A large number OF business men OF Dies
MONIES last week took the trip across
the country in automobiles to Spirit Lake
ana return. The trip took four days They
saw a large part of northern Iowa and
are unanimous In saying that the farms
look more prosperous than ever before
that the farmers are taking great interest
in the highways, that the roads are far
better than they were a few years ago.
and that the crops are good. The corn is
small, but good color and the soil is in
excellent condition, so that with the sea-
sonable weather which is being experienced
the corn crop is gaining rapidly on the
season There was much corn that had to
be replanted and it is therefore not all
or one size, but the tourists say that the
farmers have no doubt OF a good crop in
the fall.
A New office wanted.
The next legislature will be asked on
behalf of the labor unions to create a new
office, that Of chief mine inspector. The
state now has three district mine inspec-
tors, each one acting independent OF the
other. 1t is proposed to add another who
will be chief mine inspector to oversee
the entire work The labor organizations
will also ask a law to provide for building
Inspectors in all cities of over 10000 in
habitants. A committee was formed for
the purpose of pushing these bills through
