Will Increase Revenue.

In that case, however, appeal was allowed indirectly to the state tax commission. Tax Commissioner Gates believes the bill will give much revenue relief, although nothing like that expected under the Hurst -Bradham measure. The Woods bill also provides that in counties of 25,00O population the equalization board shall consist of five instead of three members.

e. J. WALLACE SAYS
PROPOSITION Ts o. X.
E.. ]. Wallace, of Lead, the shift boss
on the 1900 foot level of the Homestake,
returned on the Burlington from a trip
to Seattle and Norwood, Wash, where
he went in the interest of a number of
Lead people, to investigate the land
proposition offered by George Nef of
Deadwood. Mr.. Wallace is greatly
pleased with the proposition and he and
a number of his friends will buy tracts
of land there.
Norwood Is situated about ten miles
from Shelton, the county seat of Mason
county, on the shores of Fern lake, an
exceptionally beautiful body of water,
and here is located one of the shingle
and saw mills of the Stevenson Scarf
Lumber company. The farm lands sur
rounding the town are selling at a very
low price at present, and on the easy
payment plan. The soil; contour of the
country and climatic conditions are un-
excelled, and by reason of the very ra-
pid growth of this section of the Puget
Sound country, the ideal conditions fof
the farmer and fruit grower, and the
market afforded by reason of the close
proximity to Seattle and the other large
cities of the Coast, Mr.. Wallace is con-
fident the land will have rapid and
steady increase in value.

PEOPLE MAY ELECT.
q. s. Sensts Would Amend Constitu-
ton Regarding Popular Vote.

The Senate on June 13, by vote Of "a
to "a, passed the resolution amending
the Constitution to provide for election
Of Senators by direct popular vote. The
Bristow amendment giving the Federal
Government supervision of such elec.
tions was adopted, A to A, the Vice
President casting the deciding ballot.
The House already having passed the
resolution.
Senator Reed Of Missouri protested
against the Vice President casting the
deciding vote. The resolution as amend
ed was then finally adopted. "a to "a.
The resolution as amended and passed
follows:
THE RESOLUTION.
THAT in lieu of the first paragraph of
section three Of Article l of the Consti-
tuition of the United States, and in lieu
of so much of paragraph two of the
Same ssction as relates to the filling Of
vacancies, the following be proposed as an
amendment to the Constitution which
shall be valid to all intents and purposes
on the part of the Constitution when
ratified by the Legislatures of three
fourths of the States:
The Senate of the United States shall
be composed of two Senators from each
State elected by the people thereof, for
six years; and each Senator shall have
one vote. The electors in each State
shall have the qualification requisite for
electors of the most numerous branch Of
the State Legislatures.
"When vacancies happen in the rep
of any State in the Senate,
the executive authority Of such State
shall issue writs of election to fill such
vacancies: Provided that the Legisla-
ture of any State may empower the
executive thereof to make temporary
appointments until the people fill the
vacancies by election as the Legislature
may direct,
This Amendment shall not be so
as to affect the election or
term of any Senator chosen before it
becomes valid as part of the Constitu'
ton"

CUSTEReaILL CITY GAME.

The Custer boys played a fine game
Sunday and took the Hill Town bunch
into camp in easy fashion. After the
first inning Clements got his benders to
breaking and was never in danger. He
pitched splendid ball and was given
good support by his team mates. Davis
behind the bat was there with the goods
at all times. The infield felded every
thing that could be handled and thelt
throwing to bases was one of the feat
ures Of the game. The outfield had but
little to do, Clements believingin saving
the fielders. The batting of Witzel prov
ed the big card of the game, out of four
times at bat he secured three singles and
a three bagger. Ask two of the boys
why they struck out three times apiece
and they will tell you the Church men
broke their bats. w. Courtney drove in
two runs in the seventh on long hit to
center but was out on slide at the plate.
Wilson played a fine game being the
leading run getter. Gould the team se-
cure an excursion to Edgemont the
Fourth and return large crowd of fans
would 60 with them.

The State of New York is spending
$50,O00,000 in the construction of good
roads. The State issued bonds for the
work and when the bonds fall due all the
taxpayers in New York will pay them.
This is recognition of the principle
that all are interested alike in good
roads, and that all alike should pay.
Only on this basis can the work Of good
roads be prosecuted. 1t is quite absurd
to ask the farmer to build good roads
for the Joint use of himself and people
who live in the cities. Both gain equal
advantage from such improvements, and
both should pay their costs.
