BOARD LOWERS
CITY REAL ESTATE
FOR FIRST TIME IN MANY YEARS.
COUNTY EQUALIZATION BODY
TAKES DRASTIC STEP IN
VALUATION OF
PROPERTY.

For the first time in MANY wears.
the Dawson county board of eouali-
cation this afternoon lowered the as
sessed value Of real estate in the city
of Mitchell 20 per cent. The action
bears out the contention of residents
of Mitchell that their property was
assessed at a higher proportionate
value than property in the other narts
of the county.
The reduction in value means that
the value Of $~6,46O,1sS fixed BY CITY
Assessor J.. H. Davis, had been
brought down to $3.50, 161, or &
decrease in assessed value of 3l,292,-
OBJ. The new assessed value is low
er than the value placed by the
state board of equalization Of 1913.
Which was $5,941,59O.
The action was taken by unanf-
nous vote of the board, which ia
composed of the commissioners of
the county. Last Saturday 1t was
proposed to reduce the value 81 Nit
chell city real estate 25 per cent.
5utthe reduction was finally placed
at 90 per cent.
Last year the state board of equal
ization lowered the assessed value OF
all property in Dawson county 1924
per cent.
1t is also of considerable interest
note that the county board fixed
the average assessed value of land
IN Dawson county at $47.5O includ-
ing structures.

MANY COURTS" FIND
WORK ABOUT ABERDEEN

Aberdeen, S. D.-The possibility
of trouble from the I. w. WIS. feared
earlier in the week when a delega-
ton from the organization was re-
fused permission by Mayor Hall to
speak on the streets, apparently has
passed away. The tourists, trav-
cling on freight trains, arrived from
the south literally by hundreds, but
the approach of harvest and the de-
mand for help from the farmers has
thinned the crowds until a compare
lively few are left, the farms having
quickly absorbed most of those who
were willing to work. A series OF
petty thefts marked the arrival of
the advance guard, but these have
ceased with extra vigilance on the
part of the police.
