LOCAL LEGISLATION
Special Meeting of the Council to
Consider Protests Against
Increased Valuations

The city council held a meeting
Wednesday night to consider pro-
tests against the recent increased
valuations on property Present
were President Hunter and Alder
men knight. Bennett, Robinson,
Fausett, Smith and Roess. Clerk
Sistrunk and Attorney Hooker were
also present.
A number of protests had been re-
ceived at the meeting held on the
22nd, which had to adjourn before
all could be considered. The work
was resumed last night and carried
to conclusion.
The protests were all carefully
considered and most of them needed.
That there is no very great amount
of sentiment against the increased
valuation is shown by the fact that
while the total is about 81, 400 900
an increase of over 100 per cent over
the former assessment-thep protests
only reduced it about $4,000.
The millage on this will be 7k or
8. or maybe a little more. The mill
age last year was Is " cents on
every dollar.
The council went to work at 8
o'clock, and it was II sharp when it
adjourned.

FIRST EAR OF CORN
FROM THE FIELD
Brought to Town Today from G. II,
Howell's Big Farm

The first matured roasting ear of
field corn we have seen was shown
us this morning by Mr.. G. p. Howell,
who was on his way to the MunrOe
& Chambliss Bank to place the ear
on display. The corn is of the Boone
county white variety, and is from
the southwest corner of the city, and
it is thought to be the finest as we'll
as the earliest in the county. Early
or sweet corn has been in the mar
ket for some time, but this is the
first, as far as we know, staple field
corn.
