Continuing his campaign for pub lication. in pamphlet form. of all property assessments, J. F. Alice has addressed q letter 10 the board of finance and taXation. rccommend- ing changes in Main street assess mcnts, and reporting several alleged Inequalities.

 Hast year the total of inc tax valuation for Main street between Franklin square and East Main street and Lafayette street was a little more than $S.000. 900. Adding for business properties on West Main street and lower Broad street we have about $10.0000OO
 If to this We add for say 400 or 800 buildings tthis number is a guess. pure and simple, the correct number being perhaps two-thirds or twice as much) where buildings have been unduly modest or pessi- mistic to the extent of 9 per cent or more in their estimates of th" values Of their buildings furnished to the assessors, we reach total of about 4,000.O00 which, in justice to all. could and should be largely increased

Monday afternoon I was taken on

visited was the county jail. There were
lot OF fellows in the hospital ward all
banged up who might have been slug
ged after being taken for a ride. Well
when they told me just before the fight
that / was to take a dive or else,
thought about those poor fellows in the

crowd was larger than expected anC
that they would give me $3.50 and my
expenses for my services instead of SlO(

1t was decided that should 60 into
ring and mix like we we're mad at each
other. and then stick out my chin fol
Mr.. Shires to hit it. They told me tc
fall on my face that the referee could
not see my eyes. I must have done
right, for they patted me on the back
after the fight, and the next day paid
me $3.50 and also bought me a lot of
clothes.
You can tell the world, however
that Jim Gerry, or Dangerous Dan DAILY
whichever they care to call me. can
whip The Great Arthur ShireS any
place except Chicago. I'll even fight
him there II they promise not to take
