NORTHWESTERN IS TO FIGHT
Collecting Statistics to. Valuation of Prop

EFFORT TO SHOW ROAD TAXED TOO HIGH
Comparison Being; Made Between As
sessed Valuations of Realty and
Amounts Property Has
Been Sold For.
The Chicago Northwestern Railroad
company is aecurlog statistics from the
counties through which Its system runs in
Iowa to present before the state executive
council with tbe object of showing that It
Is asseesed too high for taxation, when
compared with other property.
County Auditor Innes has Juat completed
at the request of the Chicago as North
western a verified statement of all tho
transfers of real estate from December 1
1901, to July 1, 1802. This statement con
tains tbe description of all real property
conveyed. She consideration named In the
deeds and tbe assessed valuation of each
piece. In making tbls Hat tbe county audi
tor did not, however, Include quit claim
dceda and deeds for merely nominal considerations.-
Examination of tbe Mat shows that tbe
Value placed on farm land by tbe assessor
Is considerably lower than the considera
tion for which It was transferred. This Is
true In almost every transfer. Town prop
erty, on tbe other hand, appears to hsve
been assessed nearly It not quite up to Its
market value, as the considerations named
In the transfers in but very few cases ex
ceed the assessed valuation, while In many
Instances tbe aaseeaed valuation is greater
than tbe consideration. This goes to show
that town property in Pottawattamie county
Is assessed higher In proportion tban farm
lands.
The assessment from which County Audi
tor Innes took his figures was made In
January of last Tear, and since then the
value of farm land In this county has ma
terially advanced. It Is presumed that tho
railroad requires these statistics to make
comparisons between the assessment of Us
property and that of farm land and town
property throughout tbe state.

tbe four-room addition to the Pierce Street
school to Wlckhara Bros., on tbeir bid ot
18,950. Tbe addition will be constructed
according to the original plans and will be
finished complete In every detail, even to
the plumbing and heating,, as originally
planned. Tbe other bids on the origins!
plan were: O. E. Hughes, $9,150; Jensen
Bros., $9,800; J. P. Weaver, $8,975. Tbls
waa the second time that tbe board had In
vited bids on the Pierce Street school ad
dition. ' The bids received Isst night tor

When the motion was first mads by Mem
ber Hess to award the contract to Wlckbam
Bros., tbey being the lowest bidders, ac
cording to the original plans, Member
Cooper objected on the grounds that the
coat of tbe building would far exceed the
money voted for tbe purpose, namely, $8.
000. Member Hess called attention to tbs
fact that by the sale of a portion ot the
old High school property and tbs old Pierce
Street school site $7,200 bad been turned
Into tbe schoolhouse fund, part of which
could be used to defray the expenses of tbe
proposed addition. He also called atten
tion to the Immediate need of more room at
the Pierce Street school. The motion, on
being put to a vote, was lost, but was
finally passed on the action being recon
sidered. Member Shugart alone dissenting
Tbs contract for tbe new toilet rooms in
the Bloomer school was' awarded to Blxby

tion of tbe county road fund levied within

having the right to designate where It
should be expended.
At the suggestion of Alderman Lougee
chairman ot the committee on streets and
alleys, tbe city council bad offered to ac
cept 60 per cent of tbs fund providing It
could bavs the absolute control ot tbe
money, and leave 40 per cent for tbe county
to do what It deemed beat with and epend
wheresoever it chose. This Colonel Baker
would not listen to and ths money, amount
ing to about $1,200, baa been lying Idle.
It will now be apent and tbe streets and
alleys committee ha directed Supervisor
Baker to regrade Ridge atreet, running
north of Canning atreet. East Pierce street
will also be regraded.

The Agricultural department at Washing
ton baa been for several years conducting
experiments In southwestern Iowa to as
certain tbo cause of bog cholera and the
effect ot various remedies and preventives,
and a careful study of the disease baa boen
made on every farm of Page county.
John L. Bagnall, one of the government
experts, has Juat been in Page county, mak
ing an examination and bo reports that tbe
bog cholera or swine plague Is prevalent
In only two herds In the county, thus prac
tically marking the end of the disease there.
He states that the chief caueo of the dis
appearance ot the disease, not only there,
but elsewhere is tbe high price ot bogs.
As a consequenco of this farmers are
much more careful In tbe care and feeding
of their herds, and tbis Is tbs best pre
ventive of tbe plague. Mr. Bagnall an
ticipates a recurrence of tbe epldemlo, how
ever, as a result of conditions on the farms.
Tbe work of Investigation In that part of
tbe state will be carried on for several

a mother should be a source of joy to all, but the suffering and
danger incident to the ordeal makes its anticipation ons of misery.
Mother' Friend is the only remedy which relieves women of the great
pain and danger of maternity; this hour which is dreaded as woman's
severest trial is not only made painless, but all the danger is avoided
by its use. Those who use this remedy are no longer despondent or
gloomy; nervousness, nausea and other distressing conditions are
overcome, the system is made ready for the coming event, and the
serious accidents so common to the critical
hour are obviated by the use of Mother's
