Messrs. Hurry, Kline & Slattery, Of
this city, attorneys for Lockwood &
Blakeslee, which firm has the contract
for classifying the lands of Sheridan
county, under an act of the legisla-
ture, have received word from the
supreme court that the proceedings
instituted in behalf of Lockwood &
Blakeslee in the supreme court for
the collection of money due them, has
Blakeslee.
1t will be remembered that the legis-
lature of 1917 passed an act, recon-
mended by the state tax commission,
authorizing boards Of county commits
sioners of the various counties of the
state to classify the lands in the sew
eral counties for the purpose of ar
irving at a uniform basis of taxation.
Under this law the firm of Lockwood
& Blakeslee was awarded the con-
tracts for classifying lands in Valley
and Sheridan counties.
Nearly all Of the other counties of
the state likewise classified the lands
in their counties, and we understand
that the entire lands of the state have
now been so classified, in the hope Of
equalizing and establishing fairer
rate of taxation for state lands.
After entering into the contract
with the board in Sheridan county,
Lockwood & Blakeslee employed a
large force to assist them in doing the
work of inspecting the lands and in
Cured much expense in making the
classification. After the work was
partially completed, suit was brought
in the district court of Sheridan coun-
ty to obtain an injunction against the
county commissioners and the county
officers and also against Lockwood 4
Blakeslee to prevent the completion
or payment for the work. This case
was decided by the district court in
favor of Lockwood & Blakeslee, but
upon appeal to the supreme court, that
court held the law unconstitutional
upon the ground that the law provided
that payment for the work was tc
be made by the owners of real estate
only, the supreme court holding that
money raised by taxation must be
paid by all classes of property in pro.
portion to it's value.
Thereafter the legislature of the
state passed curative act, providing
that all contracts entered into in the
past for the purpose of classifying
lands were validated, and also pro
viding that tax should be levied anC
assessed against all property in thu
various counties for the purpose o.
paying for the work of classification
Other litigation grew out of th'
matter, and finally the district cour
fined the clerk and recorder of Sher
dan county and the county treasurer
for refusing to issue warrants whicl
had been directed to be issued by tn,
board of county commissioners. Al
appeal had been taken by the count.

HURRICANE and hail
Do DAMAGE AT HARLEM
Buildings are, Torn Down and Crops
Ruined in Six-Mile Strip Thru
Phillips County.

Malta, July 6.-Tuesday evening one
of the most disastrous storms to visit
this section of the state was exper-
fenced about O'Clock. The center of
the storm was apparently near Har-
lem and extended east as far as
Glasgow. At Harlem the wind was of
sufficient force to wreck small build
ings and in several cases in that city
some of the larger store buildings in
were unroofed and fronts blown in.
At Savoy and Coburg the damage was
very heavy and many buildings in
those two towns were wrecked. At
Dodson the wind was not as strong as
farther west, but a hail storm hit
there and very few window lights were
left in the buildings. The hail in this
county covered an area about six miles
in width and twenty or thirty miles in
length from Dodson to south and east
of Content. In the path of the hail
storm everything in the crop line is
total loss. Parties going to the
mountains report fine fields of grain
when they went out and the same
fields cut to the ground on their re.
turn.
Out near Philips ranch it is re-
ported, a man hauling in load OF
wool was badly hurt when the hal
storm broke and was unconscious wher
help arrived. Cars coming in from
all points in the county show the eff
fects of high wind and the hail. In E
number of cases the tops were blow
completely off the cars and dozer
or more reported broken wind shield:
from the hail. Reports from all sec
tions of the county are to the effec
that rain fell in generous quantities.

The New Day,

The skipping of the wind against the tent awakened Beatrice. She could hear, it soughing gently through the branches of the live oaks. An out flung arm discovered Clay missing.
 Her questing glance found him busy ever the mesquite fire upon which he was cooking breakfast She watched him move about, supple and light and strong, and her heart lifted with sheer joy of the mate she had chosen. He was such a man among men, this clear-eyed, bronzed hus- band of a week. He was so clean and simple. and satisfying. As she closed the flaps she gave a deep sigh of con- tent.
 Every minute till she Joined him was begrudged. For Beatrice had learned the message of her heart. She knew that she was wholly and com pletely in love with what life had brOu0ht her.
 And she was amazingly, radiantly happy. What did motor cars or wine suppers or Paris gowns matter? They were the trappings that stressed her slavery. Here she moved beside her mate without fear or doubt in a world wonderful. Eye to eye, they spoke the truth to each other after the fashion of brave simple souls.

Cement Mixed With Certain Types of Soil to Alter Characteristics

 Mixing cement with certain types of soil to alter the characteristics of the soils and make them more suitable for road surfacing and subgrades is an ex- pertinent recently conducted by the bureau of public roads, United States Department of Agriculture, which is now proving its value in actual use. The treatment was first suggested and tried out at the Arlington experi- mental station of the bureau Results warranted a field test, and it was ar ranged with the California state high way department to try it on the adobe soil there.
 A part of the federalaid project in Solano county was selected for the test. The dry soil was we'll broken up and narrowed to a depth varying from to 12 inches and mixed with cement in the proportions of 1 part cement to 10 parts soil and 1 part cement to 20 parts soil. It was intended to water and roll the surface but rain prevented. One section was allowed to remain untreated for purposes of comparison.
 A recent inspection showed that the untreated section was badly broken up, due to the usual shrinkage cracks characteristic of adobe soils. The treatment is not intended to make a hard surface like concrete, but to alter the properties of the soil so that 1t moisture.

 The wind and sun c;ifeSsed her. As she moved toward him, breath of the morning flung the gown about her so that each step modelled anew the slender limbs.
 Her husband watched the girl streaming down the slope. LOvL swift as old wine flooded his veins. He rose, caught her to him, and looked down into the deep. still eyts that were pools of happiness.
 Are you glad-glao all through, sweetheart?" he demanded.
 A little laugh welled from her throat. She gave him tender, mochlng smile T hope heavens like this," she whispered.

 She shook her head. q always wanted to be rescued from the en- virOnment that was stifling me, but didn't know way of escape til you came," she said

 "It was the hitching-post that did it, then?"
 "The hitching-post began it, any how" She slipped her arms around his neck and held him fast. "Oh, Clay, isn't it just too good to be true?" ball of fire pushed up into the crotch between two mountain peaks and found them like a searchlight, fill ing their little valley with a golden glow.

CT you had fixed it up. Wouldn't a first-ciass thrashin' with a hawsswhip be about right?"
 Bromfield turned pale Eve got a weak heart" he faltered
 I'll say you have" agreed Clay Its pumpin' water in place of blood right now, I'll bet. Did you ever have real honest-to-G-d lickin' when you was boy?"
 The New Yorker knew he was help less before this clear-eyed, supple ath- lete who walked like a god from dozen highballs day for an inde- terminate number of years without get ting flabby nor can he spend himself in feeble dissipations and have re- serves of strength to call upon when needed. The tongue went dry in his mouth. He began to swallow his Ad- am's apple.
 Lets look at this thing from all sides" went on Clay cheerfully. "If we decide by majority of the voting stock-and I'm carryin enough prox- les so that I've got control-that you'd ought to have a whalin', why, O course, there's nothin' to it but get to business and make thorough job"
 Maybe I didn't do right about Mad docks"
 "No mebbe about that. You acted like yellow hound"
 I'm sorry. I apologize"
 q don't reckon I can use apologies. I might make bargain with you"
 "I'll be glad to make any reasonable bargain"
 How'd this do? I'll vote my stock and proxies in the Bromfield Punish ment company, Limited, against the whalin', and you vote yore stock and proxies in the Bird Cage company to return the present board and direc- torate."
 That's coercion"
 "Well. so 1t is."
 "The law"
 Did you go hire lawyer for an opinion before you paid Durand to do me up?"
 You've got no right to hold me a prisoner here to help Whitford." All right, I won't. I'll finish my business with you and when I'm through, you can go to the annual meetin'-if you feel up to travelin that far"
 'Fll give you thousand dollars to let me alone"
 "That'd be a thousand and fifty you had given me, wouldn't it?" returned Lindsay gayly.
 Tears of vexation stood in BrOm- fields eyes. All right. Let me go. I'll be fair to Whitford and arrange a deal with him."
 Get the stockholders who're with you on the phone and tell 'em to vote their stock as Whitford thinks best. Get Whitford and tell him the fights off,"
 If I do, will you let me go?"
 If you don't we'll return to the previous questionable annual meet ing of the Bromfeld Punishment con- pany, Limited"
 Bromfield got busy with the tele- phone
 When he had finished, Clay strolled over to bookcase, cast his eyes over the shelves, and took out a book. It was David Harum." He found an easy-chair, threw a leg over one arm, and presently began to chuckle.
 Are you going to keep me here all day?" asked his host sulkily.
 "Only till about four o'clock. We're paired, you and me, so we'll both stay away from the election. Why don't you pick good book and enjoy yore- self? There's lot of A l readin' in that case over there. It'll sure i'm prove yore mind."
