An Equitable
Assessment
ONLY FEW CHANGES ARE MADE
ObeCtSTS Go Away Satisfied After Hearing As
eSSOT and Comparing Valuations

The commissioners are busy
sitting as a board of equaliza-
tion and as they get further along
with the work it becomes more
apparent each day that the coun-
ty has a very satisfactory and
equitable assessment Although
q number of individuals have ap-
Ipeared before the board there
have been but very few changes
made from the figures of the as
SCISSOR.
In almost every instance the
assessor was able to show by
figures that his assessment was
correct and that where any
changes had been made by him
from previous assessments they
were right and were necessary to
,qualize the assessments.
Representatives from practical
ly all Of the large timber owners
have appeared before the board /;
some of them with blood in their
eyes and ready to tear up things
generally because their assess
ment had been raised. I'm every
instance Assessor Reynolds has
been on hand with facts and fig
ures to justify the assessment
which he had made. After hear
ing Mr.. Reynolds explanation,
examining his figures and COM
pairing them with their own they
had to admit the correctness OF
his position and after comparing
their assessment with the others
they have gone away convinced
That the assessor understood his
business thoroughly and was Civ
ing all concerned a fair assess
ment.
The last heavy ewner Of tim
ber lands to appear before the
board was J. r.. Carroll of the
Occur d'Alene Lumber company

hard man to satisfy before &

to recover $4,000, the value of
a horse owned by the plaintiff,
Haas, and $500 veterinary fees,
j, being alleged that the horse
was killed by being gored by bull
owned by the defendants.
1t apears that the defendants,
Barney and Pemberton, were
cattle dealers who have been buy
ing cattle around here for sou,e
time. They purchased the bull
in question from J. j. Collar. The
bull broke thorugh into Haas
pasture where the horse was
feeding and gored it so badly that
il died shortly after. Just what
relation Mr.. Watkins had to the
case did not come out as the suit
against him and Collar was drop
ped before the commencement of
the trial.
Attorney William ID. Keeton aD-
peared for the plaintiff Haas, and
Attorney II. c.. Highsmith for the
defendant Neil pemberton. The
other defendant, S. S. Barney, put
in no defense. The defendant
pemberton claimed that he was
not partner of Barney and did
not own nor have any interest in
the bull in question and was in
no way responsible for it.
After hearing the evidence in
the case the court decided in
favor of the plaintiff, Haas, and
gave him judgment against both
of the defendants, Barney and
Pemberton for the full amount
claimed as the value of the horse
and for the $500 claimed for
veterinary fees, together with the
costs Of the suit.

small property owners who have
appeared before the board. When
they came To compare their as
sessment withthat of their neigh
bors and when they found that
they had been accorded the same
treatment as the large property
owners and were assessed i'm ex-
actly the same proportion that
they were they went away salts
fled. The amount of the as
scssment does not<seem to be the
objection but each property own
or wants to be sure that he is
getting the same assessment as
neighbors.

PARIS. Aug. l7.-Although these lines
