property in Douplas county. In making ,
this estimate assessors are supposed
bave clren property in at from one-sixth
to one-eighth of Its actual value. After
sitting; as a Hoard of Kqualltatlon to ad
jutt any inequalities In assessments, the
county commissioners took this valuation
as a basis and fixed tbe levy for tbe year

The levy for state purposes was 7 5 mills
and 17.1 mills was the amount agreed upon
for county purposes Fite mills of tbe
state levy wan for tbe general fund. 1 mill
was for tbe university fund and 1.5 mills
was for tbe school fund If all the taxes
for state purposes were to be collected

Tbe county levy was divided among the
general, road, bridge, bond sinking and

A TALK WITH ONE Of THEM.
She Explains llow She Keeps Her
Complexion Clear With
Cdscarinc.
New York. March 4. -"There is no use
denying the fart." said Mademoiselle Caret
one of the noted skin specialists, "but
many women ruin tbelr complexions by
using face powders, cotmetlc and skin
food. Why, it ie simply nonsensical to
use things tbat only stop up the pores of
the skin, aggravate the skin and make
jour complexion worse than if you had
.never used them. My rules for keeping the
complexion clear and tree from pimples
and blackheads are as follows Eat good.
wholesome food, eat regularly, drink plenty
of cold, pure water, take at least eight
hours' sleep take a cold sponge bath every
morning, but above all keep your bowels
regular by using Cascarlne "
This gentle laxative is tbe best tonic for
the bowels and liver, it removes all Im
purities from the system and all black
beads and pimples from the face and body.
Cascarlne makes a clear complexion, a
sweet as a baby's Etery woman should
hate a bottle In the house. It Is the best
laxative tonic and tbe best blood purifier.
Go to your druggixts today and buy a
bottle of Cascarlne. It comes in blue and
white wrappers and is not a tablet or
pill. Doctors recommend it because it will
not tripe and because no other laxative is I
S0s-
Prlce per bottle, fifty cents. If your
druggUt hasn't It. ask him to get It for
you of bis Jobber
The manufacturer of Cascarlne will send
to any address, free of cbare. a little
booklet which explains thoroughly tbe dis
eases of tbe stomach, kidneys, liver and
bowels with instructions hew to treat
them.

pi.ny will become a memory. Its tracks will
become mere ditisteBS of tht I'ctoa Pacific

It Is to arrange tbe details of tbls vast
transaction, which Is carrying to a finality
tbe recent acquirement of tbe Central Pa- j

Judge W. It. Kelly and Lawrence Greer of
the t'nlon Pacific law department are In

When the Harriman syndicate recently
added tbe Southern Taclfic to the proper
ties it controlled, it, bad net been settled
whether the systems were to retain their
identity and be operated under the "com
munity of interest" basis, or whether there
was to be a general reorganization. It has
now been decided that tbe Central Pacific
tad Union Pacific shall be joined into one
trunk line system between San Francisco
and Omaha, tbe former line losing its Idea
lity completely.
It may also be decided to merge the Ore
gon Short Line and the Oregon Railway
and Navigation company completely in tbe
Union Pacific. Tbe southern lines of the
Southern Pacific will be organized into a
eparate system. An arrangement like this
has been rumored for some time, it may
now be stated as a fact
Legal Phaoes of the question.
Judge Kelly and Mr. Greer, one of whom
comes from Omaha and the other from New
York, will make an exhauttlve study of the
lecal phases of tbe question. If the bill
passed by tbe lower house of the Utah leg
islature early in tbe session permitting one
railroad company to acquire another Is not
found to be sufficient, another bill will be
drawn and printed for passage. The stock
holders will meet in Salt Lake City March
2S to pars on the proposition to increase the
capital stock from tlSC.17S.700 to tC.17S,
700 and the proposed tlOO OoO.QOO bond issue.
It is possible tbat it will be found advis
able to reincorporate.
It ha definitely decided that in the fu
ture the Central Pacific and Union Pacific
are to be one road," said a man directly

venting it from building to the coast, while
at tbe same time tbe Southern Pacific was

"The Intention now is to make the Cen
tral Pacific part of tbe Union Pacific sys

of this step will be to increase tbe prospect
of extending from southern Utah to south

of Salt Lake and Omaba and would bring
a large amount of business this war.

Mr. Jones of Arkansas read a telegram
from J. R. McNeill, saying tbat H. R

Clark, was not a resident of Montana.
Pending the final agreement on the sundry

read from the Congressional Record the
remarks of Mr. Hull of Iowa, made in tbe

gentleman acknowledged be was connected

Mr. Prttlgrew severely criticised Mr. Hull
and denounced generally the condition in
the Philippines. He charged the minority
In the senate with being Influenced by pend
ing legislation which they feared would be
defeated. He said the sundry civil bill
ought to fall- the rlter and harbor bill as
well. He denounced tbe latter measure as
a "Job." While there were some meritori
ous features in the bill, he said, it was
worse than the subsidy bill.
Mr Pettigrew's remarks brought Mr.
Tillman to his feet with an emphatic
denial tbat be had been Influenced by any
pending legislation. He branded at a lie
the statement that bad been circulated to
tbe effect tbat he had been won oer on

wonderful, blood pouring from nearly a

like a slaughter bouse and the fight an

from the floor with a mop. So bloody, in
deed, was the fight that several persons near
the ring were nauseated and bad to leate

West came up only for more pounding on
