of individuals or corporations if as

value of each class of personal prop

duce the personal property assess

case of non-residents of the district
in which the property is assessed,
nor can it reduce the aggregate
value Of personal property below
the amount returned by the asses
sors. Before increasing the assessed
value of tracts of real property or
individual assessments of personal
property notice must be given to the
interested parties if residents of the
county.

PLACE A PREMIUM ON BABIES
Iowan Who Would Have Law Draft
ed to That Effect.

DeS Moines, Iowa, March 4.-To
encourage an increase in the popu-
lation of Iowa, which showed a loss
by the last federal census, pre-
MUM on babies is proposed by j.
H. McConologue Of Mason City,
member of the state tax commits
sion, in new tax law he has draft
ed for consideration of the next
Iowa Legislature. This law purposes
to relieve a man of taxation on
$500 for each child he has i'll his
family. The plan is incorporated
in the income tax law just drafted
by Mr. McConologue, which provides
an income tax on all incomes above
$1,000, with relief from taxation ex-
tended to 5000 for each child under
eighteen years in the family. This
is looked upon by many as one
way to pension parents, the only
drawback being that the parent
gains nothing financially by having
children unless his income is more
than $1,000 annually.
While man alone must pay an
| income tax on $1,000 and more, il
| he has a wife his exemption from
taxation is raised to $1,000. Here
is an encouragement for man to
take a wife.

The preceding article explained
the methods of equalizing assess
ments between individual taxpayers
by local boards of review. The next
step in the reviewing process con
templates, chiefly, the equalization
of assessments between taxing dis
tricts in the same county, and this
duty is committed to the county
board of equalization. This board is
not, however, limited to action on
the district assessments but may
change individual assessments where
necessary.
The county board of equalization
Is composed of the county commits
sioners and the county auditor. II
meets annually on the third Mon
day in July at the auditors Of
fee. Having taken an oath to fairly
and impartially" perform their du
ties the board proceeds to examine
and compare the returns of the as
sessment of property of the several
towns or districts and equalize the
same, so that each tract or lot Of
real property, and each article OIL
class of personal property, shall be
entered on the assessment list at its
true and full value"
The board may raise the valua
ton of tracts of real property il
deemed too low, or reduce them il
considered too high. 1t may also
raise the aggregate valuation of the
real property of the entire county OF
any district of the county by per
centage increases, but cannot reduce
the aggregate below the aggregate
values returned by the assessors. ~

FROM sAwDusII0 THE PULPIT
Well Known Clown Quit Joking to
Become Evangelist.

Peru, Ind, March 4. AFTER nakiiiS
thousands, of persons laugh during the
ten years he had been clown with
one of the big circuses which has
quarters here, Raleigh II. Wilson OF
Lincoln, Neb., has resigned anu
hereafter will devote his time to the
saving of souls. In his letter or
resignation, received at the circus
headquarters today, Wilson says
that while he has no doubt OF his
ability to qualify as a minister, he
wished to reserve the right to reJoln
the circus If he ever felt inclined
to re-enter the sawdust ring.
Wilson got his start toward the
ministry in a peculiar way. Last
summer while in Minnesota he took
a walk between performances, and,
nearing a small. church on the out
skirts of the town, decided to enter.
He was taken in charge by one OF
the Methodist elders, escorted to the
pulpit and introduced as Brother
Pope" He thought 1t a good joke
and decided to go through with 1t.
He was called on to speak and after
he had concluded, he says, the
church dignataries complimented
him on his excellent sermon.
