CURBING OF RIVER
To Spend Ninety Thousand More On
The Missouri at Folsom
QUARTER MILLION ALREADY SPENT
Bridge, Railroad and Many Acres Of
High-priced Iowa Farm Land In
Danger of Being Swept
Away by Floods.

Council Bluffs.--With approximate
ly $250,000 already expended by the
Burlington railroad and the federal
government in an effort to stop the
Missouri river from eating away more
of the $3.50 an acre Iowa land and
the Burlington right of way at Fol-
som, near here, another $4,000 is to
be expended at once in the same
place, 100000 to be advanced by the
railroad and $4,000 to be paid by the
federal government out of the fund
for Missouri river Improvement.
This agreement has Just been
reached. In addition to the BurIing-
ton roadhed and Iowa farms, the
Plattsmouth bridge over the Missouri
river is also at stake.
The government said that If Uncle
Sans $4,000 was expended the
farmers interested would have to give
like sum and the railroad another
like sum. Officials speaking for the
railroad quickly assured the federal
officials that the farmers had done all
that they could in reason be expected
to do and that the railroad would
give the additional $4,000 making
100000 as their part of the fund.
The Burlington people had only one
condition attached to their offer,
which was that they were to do the
work. After more haggling this was
agreed to, although it is tacitly under
stood that government engineers will
be permitted to drop around occasion
ally and see how the work is getting
on.

Watch the Levy.

The state executive council set a
good example for other taxing bodies
in the state when it reduced the state
tax levy in proportion to the increase
of assessment of property.
That this was done under compul-
sion Of law ought not to operate to
discourage taxing bodies which must
act within their discretion
The increase in assessment in the
state. II the average levy remains at
about 80 mills. will result in collec-
ton OF about s7.0O1.00o more taxes by
counties, cities and school districts
throughout the state than was collect.
ed under the formere valuation. There
fore, 1t Is mp to the taxing boards to
reduce the levies. There Is no rea-
son why property owners should have
10 pay more taxes because the yalua-
ton is increased
For instance. there is a statutory
limitation of 10 mills on the levy for
the general fund of cities. The rule
has been. in most cities, to levy the
limit. Since there is an increase of
nearly 30 per cent in the new assess
ment there should be a corresponding
decrease in this levy from 10 to z
mills or less.
