The members of the Board of County Commissioners are anticipating an inter ing session when they convene as a board of equalization next Tuesday, for they have about made up their minds that the assese- ments of the franchise corporations and other big business concerns will have to be elevated to meet the demands of a pub- lic clamoring for equal taxation. The books of the various ward and precinct as- sessors will be turned in next Monday and Tuesday and there 16 no reason to expect these men will come any nearer to dolng their duty this year than they have in past years. Nothing more than a copy of the preceding year's asseasment rolls, with only the changes made wabsolutely neces- sary by the transters of property, are e: pected from the ward and precinct officials. Therefore the county board expects to have the raieing of valuations left to it when it convenes as a board of equalization. Peter Hofeldt, chairman of the board, Says he can see where & raise of over f1, 900,000 can be made on the item of fran- corporations alane, without requiris a8y further evidence tham the assessment ©of these companies recently made by the city board of equalization. Takes Companies' Figures. “Four of these companies,” says Mr. Hoteldt, “compromised thelr assessments with the city board and the other was @8sessed after it took the opportunity offered to produce evidence to show the xfl eash value of its personal prop- » Under the circumstances I think it I8 fair to presume that the companies tacitly admit that their assessments as figally fixed by the clty board represent 40 per cent of the fair cash value of thelr Pproperty within the city limits. * “Now,” continued the chairman, “it we make & conservative estimate of the value af the property onutside the city limits and Within the county and add it to the fair cash value of the property within the eity, We can easily get &t the value of the prop- erty iu the county. Then all we have to do .

The perfect food for the invalid who ‘would regain stréngth and the robust, who would remaln strong. colored stockings at | is to take ome-sixth of the total, which is the accepted basis for county assessments, and we have the proper figures for our rolls. In this way we will be able to in- crease the county assessment by over $1, 000,000 on the water, gas, street rallway electric light and telephone companies alope.” How it Figures Out The persomal property of the street rail- way company was assessed by the city at | $1,300,000, which on a 40 per cent basis would make the actual value of the prop- erty in the city $3,250,000. Tax Commis- sloner Fleming says that at least 10 per cent of this total should be added to rep- resent the value of the company's prop- erty outside the city and within the county, making a total of §3 00 as a basis for the county assessment. One-sixth of $8.- 575,000 is $695833, while the county sessment against the street rallway com- pany last year was only $114,510. Iu the case of the gas company Tax Commissioner Fleming says that, consider- ing the evidence given by the gas company | officlale ihemselves at the recent hearing, it | would be fair to add $350,000 to represent (he value of that comcern's property out- side of the city and within the county. As to the water company the tax commls- sloner says there is evidence on record to warrant adding 50 per cent to the city's valuation of that property to represent the company's interests in Florence, South Omaba and other parts of the county. He thizks 10 per cent ought to be added to the telephone company’s clty assessment and perhaps nothing to that of the electric light company in making up the county as- sessment.

Fully $25,000 damage from water was sy tained at Huyder Bros.’ store during the flerce rain of Thursday night. Loose pieces of board which had been left on the fia roof were washed by the flood into the es- capes to the water epouts, which were thus quickly clogged. Having Do other means of exit the water beat back under the roof from the escapes at the edges, going in be- tween the roof and the celling mext it, apd it poon broke through the plastering, flood- ing the top floor inches deep. The top floor is the stock room and the trouble occurred directly over that portion fronting on Sixteenth street given over to shoes and uotions and furnishings. Damage aggregating easily $15,000 was dome bere, as immense new stocks bad just beem re- celved and almost everything was wet down, cardboard boxes being soaked to a pulp. Below the stock| room on the third floor is the carpet and drapery department, and here, t00, great damage was dobe. All the fine oriental stuffs and roll after voll of carpeting was wetted. There the water stopped, mot getting through the second floor. The trouble was discovered soom after the pelting rain began late in the after- Boon, and at 5:45 ffty men were working frastically to check the damage. Thirty buge tubs and fifty ‘buckets apd scoop- where the water was scooped from the floor and thrown from the windows by tub- fuls. Meanwhile other men were cover- and when most of the water had beeu taken from the floor the rest was sopped up with mops and sponges When this work was done the force was reduced, but five men worked all night st the task. Friday morning & score or so of employes was at work scgregating the soaked goods, Yards and yaras of laces ribbons and scores of boxes of handker- chiefs and underwear, besides art goods and toilet articles and other things imnu- merable were In the list The roof itself did mot leak, as 1t was fully repaired two mouths ago, and theé roofers assert that at the time they re- moved every plece of wood and foreign matter up there, 5o they are not to blame. Proprietors of ihe store, therefore, think that wirlag crews of some of the various electric connection comcerns left their sawed ends lying around on the gravel, and a damage suit may result, if the fault can be placed Representatives of the Nebraska Tele- phone company visited the place yester- day and showed theat they had no wires across that part of the roof, and so would never have cause to put workmen there. DAMAGE DONE BY THE DELUGE Thursday Night's Rain Gives Some Repair Weork to the Street Gang. The street department was busy yester- day repairing the havoc wrought by Thurs- day might's storm. On Oak street, between Bighth and Nioth there was a landslide some Ume during the night, which swept about onme-balf of the driveway and undermined the sidewalk 80 that it sags several feet From Twentieth street, between and Dodge, the‘rain washed out about eighteen wagonloads of ol cedar block and these are now heaped up in depres- sions anywhere within & radius of three blocks of their original position. In many cases they have stopped the sewer gates, causing the water to back up and create large ponds.

COURT ADJOURNS TO PERMIT FIGHT War of Words Leads Warmer, to Something but No Serjous Dam- age to Either Lawyer Results. The Hon. Jobn O. Yeiser, who is light enough to rest comfortably on the head of a populist ticket, and the Hon. Jobm T. Cathers, who is heavy emough to make a proper tail for any kind of a democratic kite, have clashed in Judge Estelle’s court and both survive to tell the story—although they are mot telling it wa given an awful shock for a few moments, she is again able to sit up and eat'a cracker. It happens that the Hon. John O. and the Hon. John T. are opposing lawyers in & case on trial before Judge Estelle, and as it is & suit in which the Hon. John T. is attempting 1o collect fees for professionai services, and the Hon. John O. is endeav- oring to show that the said professional services were not up to the standard plans and specificatione, there are moments when the atmosphere in the court room takes ou & tinge of the Martinique quality w the Hon. John O. got the Hom Jobn T. on the witness stand and began to intimate by questions that the Hon. as & matter of fact” didn't know ihis and that about the legal services for which he was trying to collect, the Hon. John T. began to show signs of an erup- tion by answering the Hon. John O's. ques- tions before they were completed and put- ting all kinds of hot ashes and blistering words in his answers. Here They Sign Articles. “Now, you 100k here,” exclaimed the Hom. John O., finally, “I don't want amy more of your sarcasm! Understand that, dom't nd I don't want any more of your smartn retorted the Hon. Joha T. “un- derstand that, don't you!" Both understood, and in thelr under- standing they were mot alone. Judge Es- telle, being & pretty good understander bimself, was in with the game, and it didn’t take him any longer than the law allows to adjourn court and save the blind goddess the bumiliation of standing spouser for the impending trouble “The jury is excused <or the present™ ‘court is Dot in session and any further sulphuric remarks these la yers bave to make will have to be made individuals and Bot as officers of court.”” And with s “sie . the ‘em” the court | stepped down off the bench and hied itself to the outer air. The Hom. John T. kept his position in the because, npparently, he had a better foot-reach from its elevated plat- form than he would have bad on the level with the Hon Jobn O. As soon as the court had cleared the port the real trouble began. The Hon. John O. remarked that he had read all about Mount Pelee and didn't care s continental if the Hon. John T. was as big a8 that very warm wart on the earth; he wouldn't take any ‘“sast from bim ‘“nebow.” Other remarks fol- lowed, but they will never be printed Here the Trouble Happens.
