NEW YORK, September 17.-Con-
tinued pressure of hedge selling caused
cotton prices in most deliveries to
enter new low ground today.
Although the market had shown
resistance during the morning, prices
developed renewed easiness when
there was no broadening in demand
and Southern offerings persisted.
December eased from 8.85 to 8.74 to
carry the list to net losses of 6 or 7
points by mid-afternoon.

COUNTY VOTERS
OPPOSE SALOON

sheridan county's organization of
the Association to Prevent the Re-
TURF of the Saloon" announced this
week that a drive to secure signers
to place this county in the column
favoring a referendum on the liquor
act has been a successful n and
more than double the number OF
names needed have been secured.
Signing of petitions has been gem
eral throughout the county and from
present indications more than LOCO
names will be on the referendum
lists from Sheridan. Less than 500
m were needed to place this
county in the bracket opposing
house bill No. 1876.
The state organization has issued
a warning that unauthorized par
ties are circulating petitions in some
counties. They are not working for
a referendum measure. If they can
secure enough names to prevent put
ting a county over then they will de-
stroy their petitions, knowing you
can sign only once"

Paging Ripley!

Paging Ripley,
Although living but % miles
from Plentywood, Mr.. and Mrs.
Carl NJ. Jensen of near Westby
visited here for the first time in
80 years Monday-believe it or
not.
T~hirty-two years ago they came
to the Westby country to home
stead with the earliest settlers.
They have made their home there
since 1905.
Westby has been their trad
ing" town and they also make oc-
c%asional trips to Crosby, they said.
Often they had been told that
roads were bad" to the Sheridan
county seat and for that reason
went the other way to do their
shopping The Blue Trail didn't
impress them very much either on
their trip here Monday. They
were told that the state highway
commission had promised to rem
edy the situation shortly.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jensen spent the
day shopping at Plentywood
stores and looking over the city.

CASE NO. THREE
ANOTHER IN A SERIES OF AC-
COUNTS ON COUNTY TAX
DELINQUENCIES

This week the Herald cites a case
wherein taxes have not been paid
on a piece of real estate property
for many years. The land is still in
the owners name, and undoubtedly
has been used for production pur-
poses, over this period of years, de-
spite the fact that it lawfully be-
longs to Sheridan county in view
that the taxes have been unpaid.
Cease No. 8" is real estate prop
erty In the Antelope territory. No
tax payments have been paid since
1920. For more than SIXTEEN
YEARS this land has yielded NO
REVENUE to aid in operation of the
Antelope schools, the county and
state governments.
Records show there is $4,000 due
in delinquent taxes on this parcel.
After the third year of such de-
%linquency, the board of county COM
missioners in 1928 should have TAX
en- tax deed to this land. They did
not, however. This Antelope resi-
dents neighbor may pay his tax
es. For Case No. 3's evasion of this
just taxation that neighbor is forced
to carry a greater load in order to
make up the deficiency.
From 1880 to the present time,
there have been good us for
non-payment of taxes. Times have
been hard. No crops. Money has
been scarce.
But Case No. 3 FAILED TO PAY
TAXES when times WE'RE GOOD.
From 1920 to 1929 this section had
some mighty fine yields and I'M
doubtedly some bumper crops were
harvested from this half-section.
Surely this land was worth $3.50 a
year (the average tax to be paid to
the owner.
Sheridan county's records reveal
many similar cases. The Herald finds
no fault with the man who has
failed to pay his just share of gov
eminent cost when holdings fail to
earn their worth. But when evasion
of payments are made in bO%unteous
times, that is a different story.

Spring WORK IS
STARTED IN MOST
PARTS OF COUNTY
Farmers to Fields This Week
as Frost Leaves
Ground

Sheridan county farmers this
week took to the fields and from
general reports spring work is Of
hcially under way in practically all
sections of the county.
Farmers this week plunged to
their tasks with a flicker of optim-
ism despite years of set-backs and
a not-too-bright outlook for this sea-
son.
In the east Medicine Lake and
south and east Dagmar country
seeding was in full swing Monday.
That section late last summer re-
ceived beneficial rains that sighted
other sections and with the frost
for planting.
Around Homestead spring work
got under way the first of the week
and 1t was reported here today that
farmers in the Westby country
were in the fields preparing soil beds
and planting seed.
Reports from Raymond and Out
look reveal that operations were not
as yet in full swing and from the
Archer community it has been re-
ported that not much farming &C
tivity has been noticed.
Very little spring blowing has
been noted and from present indi-
cations considerable summer-fal-
lowed land will be seeded to grain.
County Is Dry
Sheridan county generally is dry
from lack of spring rains and winter
SHOWS. Showers of last week aided
top soil to some extent but was not
of u icient quantity to alter the
present outlook.
County Agent M. j. Peterson told
The Herald today he believed there
was ample seed available in the
county for farmers.
Tuesday evening a light shower
fell at Plentywood.
