REPUBLICANS CONTROL THE
TAX COMMISSION

A local paper. in referring to the recent raise made in the assessed
valuation of property n Humboldt and other counties of the state by the
tax commission, sayB:
This large sum of money will be contributed by Humboldt tax
payers to maintain the horde of Democratic taxeaters at Carson
City"
Now, let's see who are the members of this "taXeating" tax commission
and who appointed the members of this "taxeatng" commission.
The law creating the a. commission provides that it shall consist of
three members, n Of whom shall be the first associate commissioner of
the railroad commission, the other two o be appointed by the governor.
Governor Oddie who is a Republican, appointed the majority of the present
commission in the persons Of C. H. Coburn and F. N. Fletcher, boho of
whom are Republicans. The secretary of the commission is 1. F.. Adamson,
who is likewise a Republican.
There is only n Democrat N the commission. All the other officers
and members are Republicans. If there is any political blame to be attached
10 the recent raises made by the tx commission, which ire practically
confscatory in some instances, let it be placed where it belongs.

enough men on the force. Opponents
OF the chief say the department IL
poorly handled. These things may
not reflect credit upon Atlanta, but
the situations actually exist and are
not isbricauons of the correspon-

exist they will be written about both
by the Atlanta correspondents and

TWAS DANDELION DAY At ST. JAMES CHURCH||
Wagon Load Upon Wagon Load Dug
In City Saturday.

Sixty.three and onenalf bushels of
dandelions. That was the record
made by Master Cy Richards of Web
ster school and he received the first
prize of all the wards for having dug
the most dandelions. A team and
wagon were required to haul the pro-
duct of this one young eXterminatOr
to the school house, this afternoon,
ty-three bushels was second and Web
ty-thre bushels was second and Web
ster school was the banner ward in
the sum total OF amount harvested.
"DandeliOn Day" was the biggest
thing of it's kind ever known in Os.
kaloosa. 1t was promoted and car.
ried to isue by the Garden Club" an
organization of the school children
OF town under direction and super
vision of elders. But no one antici-
pated the big interest taken by the
children nor the uBspeakable amount
of plants they would collect to win
the prize. Tons of the plants We're
dug out by the root and brought to
the various schools by five o'clock
Saturday evening. Hundreds OF the
school participated and the one re-
greet of the management of "Dande-
lion Day" was that funds allowed for
prize distribution, ten dollars in all
was so insufficient compared with the
amount of labor done by every boy
land girl participating.
1t was as good as a circus, the re.
turn of the harYesters to the ward
schools. They brought their contri,
buttons in boxes, bags cabs, carts,
wagons and many made several trips
to and from their source Of supply.
And they had dandelions of all siZ'
es and kinds. Some of the plants
brought were of unbelievable size,
many weighing over a pound. One OF
the dandeliOns exhibited at Third
Ward had a tap root over three feet
in length
Prize winners from the several
ward schools are here given in the
order of their rank.
Lincoln School, First Ward-John
Wentworth, Loren Gable. Edwin Van,

Wagon loads upon wagon loads OF
the dandeliOns are now to be hauled
away and destroyed, by some means,
and the task is one big job for some
one. ''Dandelion Day was sue,

that the Garden club does not care
to take it up again but it should BIT

THE COUNTY NORMAL
1t Will Be Held This Year During
Week of June 8-13.

An article in the Herald several
days ago which stated that the annual
county institute and normal would be
held this year on August 81, has been
causing Unreasonable grief at the Of
flee of the county superintendent,
which has been besieged with calls
from people who wanted to know
about the change in date. The mis-
take probably arose from a confusion
in dates between the time of holding
the institute and the date on which
the fall term of school begins. Any
how, the county normal this year will
be held at the high school building
during the week of June S-l3, as pre-
viously announced. and Miss Sheahan,
county superintendent, is making
plans for holding one of the most
successful institutes in the history of
the county.

Bankers Refuse Aid

New York, May 9.-The latest at.

bankers, announced their refusal TO
extend the $25,000,000 of Missouri Pa

mature on June l.
The bankers declined to state the
reasons for their conclusion, except
TO say that conditions governing the

such an understanding by them at
this time"
