BRUSSELS, July 3.-Although the
Supreme Council did not officially re-
ceive the Polish delegation to- day, the
members were compelled to discuss
the Eastern situation as the result of
frantic appeals reaching the Allied
governments from Warsaw
The Poles especially appealed to
Marshal Foch and Field Marshal Sir
Henry Wilson to tell them what to do
TO counteract the Bolshevik military
successes They picture the situation
as alarming
the Allied military chiefs are con-
sidering the matter, but it is rumored
that Premier Lloyd George showed dis
inclination to extend much sympathy
to the Poles in their troubles.
The perturbation in Polish and Allied
quarters over the military situation of
Poland, as shown in the dispatches
from Warsaw and Brussels. seems
warranted by the reports of the prog
ress the Bolshcv;ki have made in the
last fortnight against the Polish and
ckralnian armies. While the Polish
front seems to have held fairly we'll in
the north. along the Beresina. it has
been pushed we'll back in Polesia, to
the west of kiev, while further south
the Bolshevik forces appear to be car
iying out turning movement on
large scale, pushing through Podolia
and Nolhynia toward the fortified tr-
angle of RovnoDubnal-L utsk, close
20 the Polish border proper, and
threatening the rear of the northerlv
line.
1t was even reported through news
paper dispatches to London last night
that the Bolsheviki had captured Lem
berg, in Galicia. which was fighting
ground for the Central Powers and
Russians during the great war 1t is
only thirtytive miles from the Polish
frontier, and less than 200 miles from
Warsaw, but this report has not been
confirmed.

INCREASE REALTY VALUATIONS
Dickinson's Hearing Before Tax
| CommissiOn Held Today.


An increase In the realty valua-
tions Of the ninety-fOur counties In
the state which did not make a re-
assessment Of the real estate for tax
alton purposes this year, will be or
dered by the state tax commission,
it was announced. Just what per
centage Of increase will be required
has not yet been determined. 1t pro-
badly will vary In the different coun-
ties.
Returns to the commission Of the
eleven counties which made a reas-
sessment this year show increases In
property ranging up to 100 per cent.
The tax commission now is engaged
in hearing the officials Of the various
counties on tax equalization. 1t Is
exepcted these hearings will be con-
cluded July 10. The commission
will make an analysis of the data
thus gathered, and not later than
July 80 will report back to the var
iOus county clerks the valuation fix
ed by the commission for each re-
spective county. The county clerks
then must make over their assess
ment rolls to bring the total up to
that required by the state board.
Under the present law assessment
Of real estate Is taken every four
years whereas 1t formerly was taken
every other year and now the valua-
tons probably will be increased as a
result of the hearings. In this coun-
ty the assessment has stood for two
years. H. w. King. county clerk.

BetNTY PLAN IS COSTLY


According to figures complied In
the county clerks Office, Dickinson
county has paid SIS, l0O.62 as boun-
ty on scalps In the last ten years.
The largest amount in any one year
was paid from october, 1915 to Oct
ober, 1917, when the county paid
$3,409.44. This year the bounties
will amount to about $4,000 which
fs the average they have maintain
ed for several years. The amount
of this which is paid out on wolf
scalps is about 800 and on crows
and moles about $500 while the rest
is paid on gophers.
Mrs. H. w, King, deputy county
clerk, asserted that although the
figures show the bounty system has
checked the increase Of gophers
somewhat the number of scalps
brought in each year has showed no
decrease. She pointed out the exN
pense 1t means to the county to pay
a bounty, which she said would be. all
right If the animals were extermin>
ated but it appears that their num-
Der Is not even materially decreased
Through the few that are killed each
year. She stated that the only ef-
fective way Of Kidding the county of
hem is by putting poison In the holes
and there should be some provision
made in the state laws whereby 1t be-
comes the duty OF the township trt1s-
tees to employ some one 10 extermin.
ate them in that way.
There is a provision allowing the
the townships to make a levy to de-
stroy prairie dog towns and Willow
dale township in this county took ad-
vantage Of that law in 1915 and ex-
terminated the pests,
With the present system, Mr.. King
declared the county will 60 on pay
ing bounties indefinitely but the
gopher will not be exterminated.

WANTS REPUBLICANS TO VOTE.
Motter Urges That County Chairman
Gets EN- An Registered.

A letter to county chairmen In all
counties where there are cities Of the
first and second class, urging every
effort be used to get all REPUBLICANS
registered before July 23, sept out
yesterday by Harvey II. Motter,
chairman Of the Republican state
central committee, was received by
the chairman here. In his letter
Motter points out the need for full
expression of Republican sentiment
at the primary, as well as at the
general election,
Leaders in organized labor circles
have declared war on the Republican
party, some times with the active
support Of organized labor in their
districts, sometimes without. They
have been urging for months that all
organized labor people register. Also
they have been getting results.
There are several indications also
that Democratic leaders have work.
ed the labor leaders, to a certain
extent. In the Eighth district It has
been common knowledge in political
circles for some time that the plan
was for organized labor to cali for
Republican ballots at the polls, try to
nominate the weakest candidate run
ming, and then vote the Democratic
ticket straight at the general cleo
tiOn. The latest issue of the Kansas
Trades Unionist. published in Tope-
l. ten hn v1a &c
to be tried out here. 1t also is to be
worked in Wyandotte county. and in
several other sections Of the state
where there is a large labor vote.
The Trade Unionist lays bare the
plan, when 1t says:
"The Democratic ticket does not
need the vote Of labor In the coming
primaries, and labor as well as the
farmers will do well If they go to the
Republican primaries"
OF course, the plan generally is
regarded as dream in state political
circles. The great majority OF the
members of organized labor are
American citizens first, and members
Of a union sec6ndarily. The PARTY
or candidate who counts on any labor
leader or set OF leaders swinging the
labor vote solid-and swinging 1t
INTO the Republican party In August
and the Democratic party In NOvem-
Der-will be sadly fooled. But at
hat Mottef's appeals to the c0un-
y Republican organizations to get
he voters registered in cities of the
irst and second class probably will
ret ready response.
