London Stock Market

London, December 22.-The stock mar
ket was irregular and uncertain, owing
to fears of unfavorable financial devel-
opments in Mexico today. Consols ad-
vanced Ia point on government pur-
chases and gave a cheerful tone to other
British securities. These eased off in the
afternoon, however. American securities
relapsed on continental selling. Amer
leans opened steady and unchanged.
Freer offerings of Canadian Pacific de-
pressed the list during the morning but
later in the day the trade was steadier
on New York support and closed well
over the worst.

MEMBERS OF THE STATE TAX
COMMISSION AT HOT SPRINGS.
TOURING HILLS COUNTIES
C. M. HENRY EXPLAINS WORK OF
THE COMMISSION FOR
THE PAST YEAR.

Two of the three members of the
state tax commission. C. M. Henry and
ID. c. Preston, of Pierre, we're in Hot
Springs, Monday, looking after matters
at the court house during the day.
While in the CITY MIR. Henry made the
Star office pleasant call and in an in.
terview explained briefly the work that
had been accomplished by the CON-
mission this year, Among other things
he stated that they had reduced the
amount of state tax in every county in
the state with one exception and &C.
cording to the new system of taxation
would have greater amount in the
treasury this year than any previous
year. Fall River county in 1912 paid
into the state the sum of $9385 and in
1913 they will pay s5432 or saving Of
$3953 on al assessment of one mill.
The above statement is rather con.
f1icting until the fact is brought to
light that S47 .665, ,532 worth of taxable
property has been unearthed and put
on the tax rolls during the past year by
the commission aud the state derives a
revenue therefrom Of s47,665.53. This
is property on which no taxes had ever
been paid and does not include such
property rs lands becoming taxable for
the first time. This also means that
the amount of state and county tax on
tthis property alonp on III assessme 1T
of eight mills will be 1891 1924 25.
This should prove conclusiveIy that
the tax commission is something that
should have been inaugurated some
years ago. The present board is one
of the most capable that could have
been selected and they are certainly
doing great work. Another act of
the commission this year was the re.
duction of taxes in the western coun-
ties where but a small percentage Of
the land is under cultivation and where
the drought had affected the crops
during the past four or five years and
the raising of the assessed valuation on
agricultural lands east Of the River.
This will have q tendency to help
settle up the western portion and will
give ranchers who have had a hard
time during their proving up years
chance to realize some profit as soon
as the land becomes decided property
and is entered on the tax rolls.
Mr.. Henry and Mr.. Preston left Wsc.
nesdsy morning for Custer where they
have some little work before returning
to Pierre

VISIT MARTIN VALLEY.
Senior Member of Star Firm And Wife Spent
Sunday at VIM. O'Banion's.

SehlOr member OF Star Firm And Wife Spent
Sunday at VIM. O'Banions.
The senior member of the Star firm
and wife took advantage Of the excep
tionslly fine day, Sunday last, n d
drove out to Martin Valley eight
miles northeast of the city, for q visit
with Mr.. and Mrs. William O'Bsnion.
This was our first visit to this valley
and we are convinced that with q fsv.
orable year 1t would have been in GOOD
shape, but at time when everything
was doing fine it was visited BY a bad
hail storm which entirely destroyed
the crops. This was followed by hot
weather which made it impossible to
raise much of anything this season.
While there In company with Mr..
O'Banion we went over his ranch and
visited his private irrigation project
and dam which he is building across a
natural basin and which he proposes to
at least irrfgate about sixty acres. BY
building still two more dams later he
will be able to put water on about one
hundred and twenty acres Of exoep.
tionally good land. This project will
be entirely on his own land ami will at
all times be under his control. Mi,
O'Banion has been resident Of Mar.
In Valley for the past twenty-two
years and stated that he had seen
large crops grown there when the years
we're favorable. With private irriaa.
tion projects in this locality and the
outlook good for the large Cheyenne
River irrigation district to 60 thru, this
part of the Black Hills is certain To
come to the front from an agricultural
standpoint.

UNCLE TOMS CABIN.

Harriet Beecher Stoves classic
presented in stupendous way by
the Imp Company. A feature every
one will want to witness.
The Imp Film Company spared
no expense to make its production
of "Uncle Toms Cabin" one that
would live for years in the memory
of its patrons. To this end it assem-
bled one of the greatest companies
that the Pacific Coast has ever seen.
The River scenes we're taken on the
Sacramento River, where the condi-
tions of scenery and the presence of
the old stern wheel river boats of
snte-bellum type approximated
those on the Mississippi in the days
"befo' de wah." The snow scenes
seemed stumper for semi tropical
California, but the problem WAS
solved oy taking the company to
the top of Mount Wilson, above the
winter snow line, and there filming
the escape of George Harris thru
the frozen hills Of Ohio. What na.
ture could not readily supply, the
ingenuity Of the studio artists made
up, and the general result is pro-
duction Of graphic realism.
This excellent three reel produo.
ton will be shown at the Morris
Grand theatre Wednesday, Novem-
Der 18th, matinee and night. adv.
