exhibit while they are in the Colise-
UNI. The men will exchange watches
and the booths will never be without
an attendant during the entire prog

1t was also arranged that different
members of the Commercial club take
turns in being on hand at the show for
the purpose of distributing literature
and answering all questions that might
be asked pertaining to the two towns.
Tomorrow Judge Walter ]. Riley,
c. A. Westberg and A G.. Lundquis t

| plenty of money to carry the prof.
ect in manner betting the Import
ance and dignity of the pivotal point

| ture model of the big plant on exhibit
| ton, in operation. The illumination
| feature of the plant which distin-
| guishes throughout this region at night
time, will be reproduced in miniature

| aluminium samples. There Will be
many other attractive feature in the
local exhibit, which in themselves
would make 1t well worth while for
citizens from these parts to visit the
| show, and which cannot fail to attract
the attention of outsiders to the ad-
vantages the Twin cities offer for in
vestment and location.
Ten thousand of the folders ordered
| by the publicity committee for distribu-
| tion at the show will be delivered to-

Objection TO Assessment.
Mr. Turpin objected to the average
assessment of s12,5o0 a mile for the
property as being too high. and out
of proportion to the assessments levied
against other interurban property in
the state. He quoted figures to show
that the earnings of the concern f1uc-
tuated, and that no fixed value could
be ascertained for the property. He
objected to the assessment of the fran
chise right, and commended that the
earnings of the concern, together with
the physical valuation, should control
In the assessment. without setting out
any particular sum, he asked that q
material reduction be made.
Il wish you gentlemen would go tc
Lake county and inspect the property
before fixing the assessment I an
quite sure you would see that YOU
