Elvie Bates, of Kellogg. and Miss
Cooper, whose. rather works on a

stabbed with a pocket knife. The
blow was pointed in the direction of
the heart but the blade struck a rib
and was DETECTED
Here the fracas was interrupted
by a runaway team which was stop
ped nearby and the runaways were
pressed into service to take the
wounded man to the house of mar
ried sister living in Kellogg" He is
reported to he getting along all
right.
The sheriff came over from New

Kentucky to Jasper county last
spring with his family and went to
work on farm. Very little is
known of him In kellogg.
The cause of the assault is not
known, for Bates says that he told
Mr.. Cooper week ago of the pro-
posed marriage and no objection
was made.

THE STATE TAX LEVY FIXED
Executive Council Lowers Amount
a Mills From the Figure of
Last Year.

Des Moines, July 20.--The state ex-
Iecutive council has fixed the levy for
taxes collectsble in 1915 at As mills
for state purposes. This is 8 reducs
ton of 4 mill under the levy made
last year 49, 81
After eGualizing values of property
in the state. the total net taxable
value is $940. 1852 This is an in
crease of $8.000,000 over last year.
The total of moneys and credits re-
ported for taxation is $270,0O0, 900.
In fixing the state tax levy. the
council arranged the rates so as to
produce $150,0000 for capitol extern
sion; $1,966,600 for the state educa-
tional institutions and $2,100,00O for
general purposes.
The levy for capital extension will
be II mill; for educational institu-
tions Eli mills; for general state
purpose 222 mills-the total being
AS mills. The reduction in the total
levy is mainly due to the capitoL ex-
tension act which provides for $780,
900 revenue annually for the next
Ieight years. The levy previously had
been half mill.
The values of live stock which were
fixed in 1913 were continued without
change Wherever counties reported
assessments under that scale, orders
were issued to raise the valuations.
In equalizing the values of real
estate, the council stood pat on its
action of 1918 in raising values.
Forty-one counties reported assess
ments higher this year than they wer
etwo years ago. The council permit
ted these to stand without change,
with the exception of O'Brien county.
The assessors in that county report
ed assessments raised from an aver
age of 1858 to $3.50 an acre. The
council thought this was out of pro.
| portion to the values in other coun,
ties. Therefore a per cent reduca-
ton was authorized.
Marion county was ordered to raise
assessments so per cent. The assess
ors in fixing the values this year had
cut the 1913 values in half. The &C
ton of the council adds $7,235,925 to
the Marion county assessment.
Van Buren, county was ordered to
raise values 40 per cent.
Floyd county gets a 40 per cent
raise, adding $6,070,465 to the values
reported this year by the assessors.
Clayton county is raised 80 per cent
as also in Appanoose, Plymouth,
county is ordered to raise values 80
per cent, adding $1O,452,21S to the
county values,
However the raises ordered by the
council do not place the assessments
higher than they were two years ago
| The counties which reported as
sessments this year higher than two
years ago were:l,,
Audubon, Black, Hawk, Boone, Bre
mer, Buchanan Carroll, Cerro Gordo
| Cherokee, Chfckasaw, Clay, Crawford
Dallas, Davis, Dickinson, Dubuque
Emmett, Franklin, Grundy, Hancock
Hardin, Howard, Humboldt, Ida
