Judge Cochran has held the assessment
void because the assessing board did
not follow the statutes and because the
railroad companies have been denied
the equal protection of the law. Logan

result of methodical campaign such as

Some question has arisen in
a few cases as to the interpre.
tation of the letters used on the
reports this year. While per-
centage is not used in grading,
the letters would correspond to
about the following percents:
A, 92-10O; B, 85-92; c, 1876; D,
below IS. Any pupil who is re.
ceiving grades of B is doing very
we'll and has no occasion to
worry. A pupil who is receiving
a grade of G ought to do better;
while a D grade indicated that
mark improvement must be
made at once or a failure will
result.
