ING FIGURES or LIN.
COLIN.


The Board OF Supervisors have CON
p'eted their work and adjourned. after
carefully going over the work OF Coun-
ty Assessor Jonn G. Pepples and his
deputies Tor their years assessmen,
OF taxes IN Lincoln county The
books show a total valuation Of Sc
7s9.4i7 assessed upon property In Lin.
coln county. which is an incresse Of
sS3,636 upon the assessors figures. a
substantial raise, which IL is believed
will prove satisfactory TO the State
Board of Equalization when it meets
in Frankfort next month, and prevent
any further increase being levied upon
Lincoln county this year.
Everyone has commented very high
ly on the condition of the Assessors
books, which we're written up by HE
accomplished and beautiful daughtec
Miss Jennie Peoples. There we're
very few mistakes found in the
books and they were made by the
assessor Or his deputies and not by
Miss Peoples.
Some interesting information ccn.
eerning Lincoln county is Cleaned
from the Assessors books, showing
statistics on the diversified interests
OF the county
The assessors books show, for ih-
stance that there is only Sl69,7l5 or
deposited in the banks OF the county
whereas the last statement OF the
banks showed something like three
quarters of a million dollars. Some.
one suggested that this can easily be
accounted for by the large number o.
depositors which the local banking
institutions have in adjoining counties
