ton and made a general protest
against the mandate recently issued
by the board. All agreed that the
stock situation throughout the coun-
try was chaotic and in view of that
condition asked for a liberal reduc-
ton of the assessment. AS a substi-
tute for the rates established by the
board they presented a proposition
that cash value of $35 per head ,e
placed on all range cattle and that for
taxable purposes they be assessed on
20 per cent valuation; that cash
value OF 81 head be placed on
sheep and for taxable purposes they
be assessed at 20 per cent of their
value, 1915 lambs to be excluded
from taxation, and on hogs and pigs
a horizontal cut of 80 1-3 per cent
was asked from the rate established.
Other tax matters were talked over
in a general way, out no clear-cut
schedules were produced.
After listening to their arguments
pro and con the board announced
that the matters presented would be
given due consideration in the next
few days at full meeting of the
comission. The members present at
yesterdays session were Governor
Boyle, John F. Shaughnessy and L.

sioners Bartine and Simmons were

Italy May Not Enter War But
Indications All Point That Way

By William Philip Simms, United
Press staff correspondent
VENTIRIOLI, Italy, April 10, by
mail to New York.-Is Italy going
into the war?
This question was put to an Italian
army officer here this afternoon as he
stood on the drill ground watching
his regiment OF Berseglieri going
through its PAGES. He did not reply
Immediately. Then he faced the ques-
toner: Chi 10 se?" (Who knows.)
A shrug OF the shoulders accom-
panied the words, guesture that told
more than the verbal answer. One
interpreted it to mean that Italy has
been balancing so long now it would
be useless to risk further guesses.
In the meantime troops are being
drilled like mad. On the parade
ground Extraordinarily just grassy
field bordering the short, pebbly
beach OF the Mediterranean--a regi-
ncnt of Italys crack troops was be-
ing instructed in the latest war tao
tics. Drill sergeants worked men II
squads, chasing them all over the
place at the terrific pace which makes
OF the lieri the fastest marching body
OF troops in the world--nearly l8O
steps to the minute, or as fast as a
human can walk without breaking
into a run. To keep them III step,
the sergeant followed at their side,
saying something which sounded like:
"Hunch-gwee, hunch-gwee, hunch-
gwee," with the accent on the "gwee.
The Beresglieri step is said to have
had its source in the brain OF Napo-
leon, who once won a battle because
he knew how fast every army Al
Europe marched. He figured that 1t
the English step was llO to the min
ute. the Russian lis, the Austrian 10
and so on, and that his army march
ed at the rate of l30 steps to the min
ute. he would arrive at a certain place
before the enemy. He did arrive hrst,
and because he did, he won the battle.
Th Italians are said TO nave speeded
up the Bersaglieri, making the double
quick step the ordinary one because
OF this victory of Napoleon.
After each drill the sergeant had 70
put his squad through its PAGES, the
squads would be combined into COM
panies and maneuvered all over agair.
After this followed battalion and reg
imcnt maneuvers, officers now and
then taking command OF unit with
out warning and drilling them to do
all manner of sham fighting in re-
sponse to their tiny silver whistles.
"Tootr- shrills the little silver
whistle. The Bersaglieri come to at
tention.
"Toot!"-they fix bayonets. "Toot!"
they shoulder their guns. "Toot!
they begin to march. "Hunch

Cattlemen Ask for Substantial

of rates by the State Tax commission
on which assessments will be based
for the current year, an interesting
and rather protracted meeting of the
board was held at the Capitol yester-
day afternoon at which were present
number of parties representing
some of the larger interests of the
state. They were all loaded with
facts, figures and statistics and from
their standpoint gave self-satisfying
reasons why the rates as established
by the board were too high. They,
therefore, asked for reductions all
along the line.
G. ]. Hall, representing the Bell
Telephone company, was present and
or behalf of his corporation asked
that lower valuation be placed on
the company's possessions in this

consideration.
