we granted him the same courtesy.

Special Assessment Levied
In Drainage District No. 2
The first additional and supple
mental assessment on all of the prop
erty embraced within Drainage Dis
trict No. 2, was levied this week, and
amounts to $35,000.00. This special
assessment amounts to five-twelfths
of the original amount levied when
the district was organized.
The new assessment draws inter
est at 51 per cent, beginning with
the 1917 taxes.
The special assessment is to be col
lected as follows: For the years
1917, 1918, 1919, 19201921 and 1922
the interest at 5 per cent will be
certified. For the year 1922, in ad
dition to the interest, a levy of one
fifth of the special assessment will
be made. For tho year 1923 interest
at bi per cent for one year on four
fifths of the sum levied and in addi
tion one-fifth of the total sum levied.
For 1924 interest at 5i per cent for
one year on three-fifths of tho sum
levied and in addition one-fifth of
the amount originally levied. For
1925 interest at 5i per cent for one
year on two-fifths of the amount
levied, and in addition one-fifth of
the amount originally levied; for
192G interest at 5 per cent for one
year on one-fifth of the amount levi
ed, and in addition one-fifth of the
original amount levied. This will
make the assessment run until 1926,
when the last installment will be
paid with the 1926 taxes.
For the first five years, or until
1921, only interest at 5i per cent will
be levied each year, and beginning
with 1922 levies of one-fifth of the
principal will be made in addition to
tho levies for interest. One-fifth of
the principal will be paid each year,
in addition to the interest, after 1922
until the full amo nt levied has been
paid. This will make the last assess
ment come with the 1926 tax levy.
In the new assessment Dakota
county is charged with $832.65 "by
reason of highways within said dis
trict" as the special assessment, and
unless the amount is paid before the
full time allowed by the terms of
the levy, there will be S3W.37 inter
est, making a total of $1,199.02 as
the county's share in the special
assessment.
The C. B. & Q. railroad is charged
with $628.42 and $276.50 interest,
and the C. St. P. M. & O. railroad is
charged with $2,403.69 and $1,057.62
interest.
The installments will be certified
to the clerk each year in the Bame
manner as former assessments were
certified, and the amounts will be
collected by the county treasurer
with the general tax.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN TOURS
The season of 1910 brought to the Rocky Mountains the
greatest patronage yet recorded. Estes Park, Colo., and a num
ber of ranches in the Big Horn Mountains were forced to turn
tourists away. Many mountain localities and ranch resorts are
now increasing their capacity preparing for the coming Sum
mer's volume.
Every prospect now indicates a greater tourist volume in
the mountains this coming Snmmer than ever bciore. Tourists
will view Yellowstone Park by automobile; the magnificent
Rockies with their three National Parks; Rocky Mountain
Estes, Yellowstone and Glacier are luring Easterners from their
limited environment, who want to tour the big, wide West and
to understand it. In due time, descriptive publications of Sum
mer tours will be available. If you expect to join the mountain
Summer throng, especially if you desire accommodations at
some particular place, it would be well to make early plans.
Let me know the region in which you are interested, that I
may list your name for information and publications.
