The county board of audit, consist
ing of Auditor W. G. Doane, Clerk of
Court Robert 81. King and Chairman
Dalchow of the board of commits
sioners, last evening concluded their
work of checking up the tax books,
receipts and moneys of the county.
The auditing consumed seven days
and the board worked like Turks in
order to complete it in this time. The
checking up Of the tax books and re-

tedious Job.

According to Judge Sanborn's de.
cision railroads, without reg ard to the
amount of watered stock that may
have been issued. are entitled to earn
seven per cent on their Capitalization.
In this connection the Cambridge
Independent-Press pertinently re.
marks: "We will concede that a
railroad company should have the
right to earn a fair return on it's in.
vestment, but, take for instance the
case of a railroad and an individual
in times of distress or panic: the in.
dividual must take his losses incident
to depression of business and suffer
in silence, but the railroad company
is entitled to seven per cent on its
entire Investment, including its
watered stock, and all it needs to dc
to secure that seven per cent is to fix
it's rates so that it will earn that
amount, and, of course, Mr.. Ultimate
Consumer in the end pays the freight.
If this is not a discrimination, if this
is not a special privilege enjoyed by
the railroad companies, we fail tc
realize what the definition of Especial
privilege is" /

A knotty Problem, Indeed.

Many of the country papers want
the governor to call an extra session
OF the legislature to raise the gross
earnings tax on the RAILROADS because
the railroads have raised passenger
and freight rates. AS the matter
stands now there is nothing to pre-
vent the railroads from raising the
rates to cover the additional tax, so
that in the end the people would have
to pay the additional tax. Mighty
knotty questions come up for SETTLE
ment.-Slayton Gazette.

WILL CASE is
BEFORE COURT AGAIN

The famous Henkel will case,
which was fought through the court
two years ago, when Mrs. Alice Pen
nington, a. granddaughter OF the late
Peter Henkel. brought suit TO break
the will, has been revived by Rosetta
Henkel Mcguire, who has filed a sup
pressed petition for an injunction re-
straining the estate fro disposing OF
any OF the property until her claims
are settled.
Mrs. Alice Pennington was success
full in her suit, and the will was set
aside by. Judge Hosmer In 1908. His
decision was later affirmed by the
supreme court. Under this decision,
Rosetta Maguire's share would have
been about $4,000, her attorney,
Frank E. whipple. alleges. Mrs. en-
nington was persuaded to withdraw
the Judgment, however. and have the
will reinstated as legal. IL is claimed.
This was done without notice to
Rosetta Mcguire, and would result In
her losing her share II allowed to
stand. II Is said that Alice Penning-
ton got 100000 as her share.
