Unfavorable to Weaver.

lon mill Anil frond Still
Iteiimliis ,
A canvass has recently been made In
Montgomery county for the purpose of as
certaining as nearly as possible what the
political complexion Is. The figures ob
tained are such as to furnish little en
couragement to General Weaver and those
who are managing his congressional cam
paign. There are 2,400 republicans. 1,100
democrats and 200 populists , which , If the
votes are cast In a straight partisan way
would give Hager a majority of 1,100 In that
county. Hut there are other things that
Indicate that even those figures do not
give a true Idea , of Weaver's weakness No
less than fifty democrats have given their
names to the chairman of the Montgomery
county republican central committee as
stanch opiwnents of fusion and Weaver
They assert that they will not vote for
Weaver , and have given the committee
full permission to use their names publicly
Most of these men live In lied Oak and
Vllllsca , but there Is a sprinkling of them
In Sciola , Klllott. Coburn and other towns
In the more rural districts. Similar can
vasses are being made In the other counties
ot the district , and so far as can be
learned the breach between the fusion and
anti-fusion democrats has not been healed
over slnco the conventions were held.
Kvcrysv here men are turning up who have
been accustomed to vote 'the democratic
ticket , and they sec no reason why they
bhould Hop o\er into the populist camp this
year.
lust Criminal Srnu-iKcil ,
Judge Macy wound up the criminal business
of the August term of court jesterday by
sentencing the last of the batch of criminals
who were convicted. William Van Dyke ,
for the latceny of a suit of clothes , was
slven twelve months In the penitentiary.
A. T. Halns , for an assault and battery on
M. McKlnzle , was fined $100 , the maximum
for offenses of that kind , and If he falls to
put up the cash he will have to He In Jnll
for thirty days. Sheriff Hazen leaves this
evening for Fort Madison with four candi
dates for the penitentiary.
The case of Maude Uryant ngalnst the
Motor company was put on at the afternoon
session nnd promises to occupy the next da >

the motor on which R. F. Holmes met Ills
death. She demands $20,000 damages for
the Injuries which she suffered. The com
pany offered her $1,800 , but she refused to
accept It. She occupied the stand all
afternoon after the Jury had been selected
and detailed the particulars of the accident
The cross-examination will be proceeded with
this morning. The plaintiff Is represented
by FllcUnger Bros , and the company

Interested spectator yesterday afternoon.

EQUALIZING THE ASSESSMENT
Council llenrlni ; Mnuy I'rotettR frnm AcV
Crlotctl 1'roperry Ow iirrn.
The city council met yesterday as
a board of equall/atlon to hear pro
tests against the 189u assessment The
case of a number of lota nt Fortieth
nnd Half-Howard streets was first
taken up. The complainant was Mrs.V. .
II. Bowman , who alleged that the corner
lot which had a good houte on It was only
assessed $ ! ! 35 , while the adjoining vacant
lots were assessed at $225. These assess
ments were all too low In her estimation ,
as the lots Immediately l the re.ir were
offered for sale at $500. $ After some dls-
cusblon the corner lot was raised to $275 ,
and the other lots to $250 ,
The James Morton & Sons Hardware
company were on deck with a sworn affi
davit In which they protested that their
assessment of J3.550 on their stock at 1511
Dodge street was excessive In view of those
of other and competing firms. All the
parties to tin ? matter were present and were
given an opportunity to make a representa
tion of the Invoice value of their stocks.
The board finally decided to lower the com-j
plalnanl'g assessment to $3,000 , and to add |
SO to that of the Lobeck-Unn company
There was a protest heard against the
assessment of the Hoston store at ? 1.000
which , It was claimed , was ridiculously low.
Mr. lirandels stated that at the time when
the assessment was made their stock was
very low on account of the fire and the
board left the assessment as It stands.
