DIFFERENCE OF
 WAR AND PEACE
 ONLY AIRPLANES
Ten Thousand Aerop|anes Will Win the War for the Allied Countries
 of the World.
U. s. HOLDS THE POWER

WASHINGTON, July 13. - Orville Wright says at present the difference between five years or more of war and an early victory for the Allies is 10000 airplanes. "ln a year hence we will have sent abroad thousands of fighting airplanes that will be better than anything yet produced.
 "If we could drop 1000 airplanes and aviators over there today, every body in Germany would know before night that we were there. We are bringing over to this country foreign motors which will be duplicated here. Essen, the site of the Krupp gun works, could be reached, bombarded and put out of business. The Central Powers cannot do any more than compete with their opponents in the manufacture of airplanes.
 Therefore, the United States in this regard holds the balance of power"

EQUALIZATION
 BOARD HOLDING
 SESSIONS DAILY
Assessed Valuation for the City Property Placed at An Estimation
 of $3,5O0,O0C.
TO SOON FIX TAX RATE

The members of the city council are holding meetings each afternoon in the Council Chambers as board of equalization and passing upon any complaints concerning the 1917 tax roll which may be called to their attention by property owners. So far no material changes have been made in the tax roll, the taxes lowered on the property have been offset by the raises.
 An estimate of the assessed valua- tion of the property on the tax roll has been made by City Clerk E. w. Petit and amounts to practically $3,- 500, ,000, which is about the same as the tax roll of last year. The in creased valuation of property in the outlying sections about offsets the loss in valuation of property in the city proper due to families leaving and saloons and other businesses closing.
 At tax rate of 20 mills, it is esti- mated that the taxable property in the city this year will return approxi- mately S70,000. On the 20th of the present month the council will meet and fix the tax rate for the year and as the liquor election will be held next Tuesday they will know whether the saloons will be in busi- ness during the next six months or not and can fix the rate accordingly.

ARTILLERY OF

American Army Officers at the Front Make Comparisons of
 Two Nations.

WASHINGTON, July 13-Ameri can officers studying conditions on the front in France say that they are wonderfully impressed with the British artillery. The German ar tillery is very strong at times, bur their shelling is nothing compared with that from the allied guns. With their enormous guns, which no other nation possessed, the Germans ex- pected to blast their way to quick victory in 1914. Now that their mili tary ambitions are being dashed to pieces against the rocks of skilled supremacy in guns and gunners.
