PAYS VISIT
TO GRASS VALLEY LAND

Mrs. A. l.. Schlarbaum, of Genoa,
Nebraska, arrived in town last even
ing, to look after her lands at Grass
valley. Last year she took up half a
section under the desert land act, and
before leaving will make regular i'm
provements and prove up. Mrs.
Sehlarbaum reports that lands in the
middle west are being held SO high
that people in search of homes are
compelled to look for cheaper land
believes that many of her neighbors
will come to this section before the
year has expired.

RAILROAD STRIKE
WILL Be ARB|TRATED

Managers of the ninety eight west
ern railroads threatened with a
strike of $4,000 enginemen and fire.
men have accepted arbitration Of the
wage dispute with their enginemen
and iremen, says a Washington press
dispatch.
The railroad managers, just before
noon yesterday, advised the president
they would accept the plan proposed
by the Federal board of mediation,
which had been passed on in Febru-
ary by the representatives of the en-
ginemen and fremen.
The plan provides that the ques-
tion of wages shall be arbitrated
under the Newlands act, and that
rules and regulations enforced prior
to October, 1913, shall be restored.
Immediately after the call of the
railroad managers the Federal board
of mediation was notified of the IA
vorable outcome.
President Wilson told callers he
had every reason to believe that the
railroad managers would be patriotic,
and that a strike would be averted.
Western Roads Ask Increase.
Increases in freight rates on all
the railroads west of the Mississippi
river are being prepared for submis-
sion to the Interstate Commerce com.
mission.
The applications will be- presented
as soon as they can be prepared in
the required form.
Managers of the western lines, ac-
cording to best information, are pre-
pared to contend that they need
more revenues to meet the increasing
expenses of operation, and TO point
out that their lines are in even great
er need of relief than the eastern
lines because of necessarily longer
hauls and less density Of population.
Percentage Not Known.
No intimation has reached the In
terstate Commerce commission of the
percentage Of increase for which the
western railways purpose to ask. The
lines affected extend from the Mis-
sippi to the Rocky mountains.
The roads traversing the Pacific
coast may not be affected.

MILLION IN(RFASE IN
(OUNTY'S ASSESSED VALUE

County Assessor Leonard has com
pleted the county's assessment for the
current year, with the exception of
Winnemucca and Golconda. While no
footings have been made, it is thought
this years total will exceed that of
last year by fully $1,000,000, not
withstanding the fact that the state
tax commission has reduced the as
sessments of both the Southern Pacific
and Western Pacific.
Last year the Southern Pacific was
rated at $685. ,795, as compared with
$6,l57 ,s4l for this year. Last year
the Western Pacific was assessed at
$2,SO3,974, while this year its valua-
tion is placed at $2,,530,6ss.

IT NEEDS HELP.
Negro Industrial School Calls for
| Funds-Victim of Retrenchment.

The Topeka Industrial and Educa-
| tional institute. the trade school for
colored boys and girls, is sending out
its first appeal for several years. The
school is in a very encouraging con-
dition so far as students are con-
cerned; it is crowded to the doors,
and applications continue to come in.
These students pay their board either
in cash or labor, but there is an i'm
perative need for salary. equipment.
and upkeep. Owing to the retrench-
ing policy of the last legislature, the
appropriation was far from being suf-
f1cient to meet the demands Of the
growing institution. One thousand
dollars is needed for urgent and
pressing wants. The boiler of the
heating plant at the boys dormitory
broke down during the recent cold
weather, and a new boiler had to be
installed at once.
The financial affairs Of the institu-
ton are well managed and are open
to inspection at all times. Principal
Carter. in speaking of this impera-
tive need. stated: THE institution
Even one dollar will help very much
made payable to John M. Wright,
