UTILITY TAXES
ARE INCREASED
(Special Correspondence.)

Keithsburg, Aug. 23.-At tax
hearing before the Mercer county
board of review, at Aledo, today,
the city of keithsburg succeeded in
getting the assessment of the Hi
nois Northern Untility Co. which
operates in the several towns in
this vicinity increased from $4,000
to $4,000, which sum more nearly
represents the taxable proportion
Of its property in keithsburg.
Messrs. Hebel and Larkin for
the company, sought to Justify the
low valuation for tax purposes, but
the efforts of the city proved con-
clusively to the board, that the val
uation returned by the company
was entirely too low. The result
will be that the city of Keithshure
and the school district will be
benefited accordingly. l.. S. Mayer
of keithsburg, represented the
city and Judge D. A. Hebel the
company.
