When a doctor, who hna been tho victim

Corporation assessments nro being talked
nbout on the street every day nnd com
parisons uro being mndo with tho valuu
tlonti placed on packing plants In other
cities. In order to mako comparisons Tho
Ilco has secured from It. M. Nnsh, county
clork ot St. Josoph, Mo n statement show
ing this yenr's valuation of tho pncklng
hotiBcs nnd tho stock yards at St. Joseph.
The figures to follow nro surprising for
tho reason that tho St. Joseph stock yards
havo only been rstnbllsliod n llttlo over
three years, Hnd tho Industry there mny bo
snld to bo In Its Infancy. Tho stock yards
hero wore opened In IRS I nnil have been
growing over since, that Is with the ex
ception of tho valuation ns returned by
tho nsscssor,
Tho total vnluatlon of tho packing houses
nnd stock ynrds ns returned by Tax Com
missioner Fitzgerald for 1901 Is $501,100,
whllo tho returns at St. Joseph show a
total of ?lt8,fi30. This Is an Increase of
only $42,570 for South Omahn.
Here tho stock yards, with n capital of
$6,000,000, nro valued by Fitzgerald nt
$133,000. At St. Joseph, n comparatively
now market, the vnluatlon Is $10(1,900. An
Increase of only $2(1,100 Is thus shown.
Swift's plnnt nt St. Joseph Is given a
valuation of $100,060, whllo tho samo firm
ot South Omahn Is protesting on a vnlua
tlon of $77,000. The dlffercnco In valuation
on theso plants Is $2fl.0ii0,
Hammond's plants at St. Josoph Is valued
nt $82,8fi0, whllo tho Fitzgerald valuation
here mnkrs It $S3,O0O, n dlffercnco of $29,830.
When tho foregoing figures were shown
to one of the heaviest taxpayers In tho city
ho snld: "It Is n shame thnt South Omaha
cannot hy somo means secure n vnluatlon
largo onough to reduce the levy nnd one
proportlonnto to the business trnnsactrd
here. St. Joseph only Btnrted stock ynrds
n few years ngo, nnd It Is not moro than
threo years nnd n half ngn that business
thcro commenced In earnest. Tho totnls go to
show that tho nssesor at St. Joseph Is do
ing his duty by placing n fair vnluntlnn on
thn stock ynrds nnd packing plants. If
thnt was done hern tho valuation would bo
greatly Increnscd nnd tho levy reduced,
AVhen Investors see that South Omnha, with
flvo pncltlng houses nnd a big stock ynrd3
company, only shows a vnluatlon of $2,100,
000 and n levy of 60 mills. It looks ns If
thero was something doing. In my opinion
thn valuation should bn raised by the
Ilonid of Review to rot less than $5,000,000,"
llcforc the llniird,
General Manager W. J. C. Kcnyon nnd
W. S, King represented the stock yards
company yesterday beforo tho Hoard of Ho
view In answer to a summons to show
cause why the htoek yards assessment
should not be raised.
Mr. Kcnyon rcvlowed the various lots and
lands owned by the stock yards company
nnd suggested that severnl pieces of prop
erty might be raised. Klnven acres near
tho mouth of tho sower was valued nt $100
by the tnx commlsloner. Mr. Kcnyon
thought that $800 would be nhout the proper
vnluatlon and tho board, coincided wl'h his
view.
As to n general rnlso of all the property
ho objected. He stntnl that the packing
houses and the stock ynrds under the vnl
uatlon turned In by Fitzgerald would be
compelled to pay $.10,000 In taxes, In return
for which they received no benefits, ns they
were compelled to mnlntnln their own flro
and police departments, as well na to main
tain their own flro hydrants. Tho board did
not lake nny definite nctlon In the matter.
At the suggestion of A. L. Sutton the
hearing of Cudnhy. Swift. Omahn nnd Ham
mond wns set for 2 o'clock Monday after
noon. The Thomson-Houston Klectrlc
Light company will be heard at 10 o'clock
Monday Postponement was naked because
of the absrnce of Mr Nash Secretary
Claybaush of the Omaha C!s company was
present and protested against nny raise.

Mr. Fitzgerald vnluos the property of tho
gas company nt $5,000. a raise of $800 over
last year. Mr. Claybaugh stated that the

Delinquent Taxes.
In looking over tho property roll In tho

matio wnich rather startled Treasurer Kout
sky. Ho found a lot on Twonty-fltth street
near P street on which taxes to the amount
of $616.97 hnvo accumulated. This city tnx
has been running slnco 1893 nnd Includes
wpeclnl taxes levied nnd assessed. What the
county tnx on this piece of property Is was
not ascertained yesterday, but will bs
looked up today. Tho city tax nlono amounts
to Just nbout tho vnluo of tho lot at this
time, as lots nenr by woro recently sold
for $600. The city will havo considerable
property of this kind on Its hands when tho
books nre checked nfter tho Hoard of He

The little child is safe from ordinary
dangers in the care of the faithful dog.
Rut neither the dog's fidelity, nor the
mother's love can guard a child from
those Invisible foes that lurk in air,
water and foodthe germs of disease.
Children need to he specially watched
and cared for. When there is loss of
appetite, lassitude and listlessness in a
child, an attempt should be made to re
vive the appetite and rally the spirits. In
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
parents have found an invaluable medf
cine for children. Its purely vegetable
character and absolute freedom from
alcohol and narcotics commend it to
every thoughtful person. It is pleasant
to the taste, unlike the foul oils and
their emulsions offered for children's
use. "Golden Medical Discover)'" makes
pure blood and sound flesh, and abso
lutely eliminates from the system the
poisons which feed disease.
Mrs. Hlla Gardner, of Wntervlew, Middlesex
Co., V., whose daughter (uflcrrd from roaltrisl
poisoning and catarrh, writes i "My little
daughter Is enjoying splendid health. 1 am glad
I founds doctor who could cure ray child. She
took twtlve bottles cf the T.olden Medical Dl
covery.' tlsht bottle of ' Pellets,' and one bottle
of Dr Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and she Is well.
We thank Cod for your medicines."
