rOUR REASONS FOR THEIR OBJECTIONS

An J' Clinimo After I'lKiirce lime
nciMi .pircnrl by the Stole
Hxeciitlvra.
When the county supervisors met In ad
journed tcsslon yesterday they wero pre
sented with a remonstrance from the
trustees of Oarner township against tho
action of the board In raising tho assessed
value of lands and real cstato In that
township ns returned by tho assessor. Tho
trustees wero present and submitted the
remonstrance In person.
The county supervisors when In session
as a board of review raised thu valuation
placed on lands In Garner township by the
assessor 25 per cent. Tho valuation for
taxation purposes placed by the assessor
was $11.78 per acre nnd this the board
raised to $14,73.
In their remonstrance tho trustees of
Garner township put forth four reasons
why tho assessment should not bo raised,
They claim that any Increase or addition
to the figures returned by tho assessor
would bo In excess of the real value of tho
land. Secondly they assert that the as
sessed value as originally returned by the
assessor for tho township is higher than
like assessments as returned by the as
sessor of nny other township In this county.
As a third reason they claim that the
actual value of lands In Garner township
will not exceed thu actual value of lands
In other townships. As a fourth and Until
reason they assert that Rny Increase or ad
union to uiu nn.iessi-ii vhiih; oi mil iuiiuh
or uicir townsnip ror mo year r.'ui woum
bo excessively high as compared with tho
valuations of other townships and would be
Incqultahlo, unjust and oppresslvu to the
taxpayers.
Tho board did not tako any action on tho
remonstrance nR t wua
remonstrance as u wua
Us authority to make a
was In doubt as to
y change In tho
Tho law requires that In caso any person
Is dissatisfied with tho assessment as fixed
by tho board of review a remonstrance
must be filed nnd In tho event of tho
remonstrance falling of its object an ap
peal must be taken to the district court
within twenty days nftcr the adjournment
of the session of tho board at which such
assessment was made. The present scwlon
of tho board Is an adjourned meeting of fhe
regular Juno session and tho trustees claim (
that they have twenty days after the close
of this meeting within which to appeal to
tho court. They stated that If tho board
failed to place tho assessment back at Its
original figures, an appeal would assuredly
bo taken to tho district court.
Tho board after convening yesterday
afternoon resolved Itself into a commltteo
of the whole and spent tho balance of the
day In Inspecting county bridges In Hardin
township. Owing to the absence of Super
visor Brandcs nothing yias done regarding
the proposed Junketlne' trip through the
stato to Inspect county poor farms. This
matter, it is expected, will be decided upon
at this morning's session.

(From a Staff Correspondent)
DES MOINES, Aug. 5. (Special.) A sec
ond attempt Is to bo made to prove the
unconstitutionality of the Iowa tax ferret
law. Mrs. L. E. DeWltt, who formerly
resided In Polk county, removing to Long
Beach, Cnl., in 1S9S, has brought action
In the district court here to have the
assessment covering the period dating from
1895 to 1900 Inclusive set aside on the
grounds that the new law empowering su
pervisors to employ tax ferrets Is uncon
stitutional; also that section 1374 of tho
Iowa code, permitting the county treas
urer to go back a period of five years, dat
ing from the year 1S9S, nnd make assess
ments on concealed moneys and credits. Is
not retroactive. The grounds are similar
to those fought over In tho Day case, which
gavo tho ferrets a decided victory. Section
1374 Is charged as unconstitutional because
it falls to provide a remedy In nppeul;
that It falls to provide notice to tho tax
payer beforo the listing and assessment
of the property by the treasurer, and that
it permits some ono other than the regu
larly elected assessor to make tho assess
ments, thus holding out an Inducement
for the latter to shirk his duty and enter
Into collusion with tho tax ferrets, there
fore, making It contrary to public policy
and Invalid. Chapter DO Is declared to
be unconstitutional for the same reason
that section 134 Is defective. It ts
charged that It Is not retroactive nnd ap
plies to no taxes assessed prior to the
tlmo of Its taking effect. W. O. Har
rison, ex-county attorney for Polk county,
drew up the petition. Ho Is understood
to have contended that the law Is Invalid
slnco Its Inception and will mnke a de
termined effort to prove his premises. The
amount In controversy aggregates $20,000.

After the men had whistled tho pieces

but after a little effort on tho part of the
singer, 300 pretty Hps were puckered and
tho refrain, "Surrendered to Jesus," was
whistled from tho beginning to tho closo.

Itev. Mr. Friable, pastor of Plymouth Con

nounced from his pulpit tho utterances of
Senator Tlllmani at Highland Park college
commencement on tho negro problem, as
brutal, undignified and unbecoming a gentle
man, and especially a man occupying tho
official position of "senator from South Caro
Una. The preacher expressed surprise that
such a man as Tillman would have tho
effrontery to appear beforo an audience and
glvo voice to such degrading expressions.
The remarks which called forth such se
vere criticism on the part of Itev. Frlsble
were to tho effeflt that all men were not
created equal and "that God Almighty
never Intended that a nigger should vote."
