there Is little else to give Judge Sullivan

Aaseaaments on Telephones.
K. M. Morsman. attorney for the Ne
braska Telephone company, came down
from Omaha this morning and talked to
the Board of Equalization regarding that
section of the revenue law which provides
tl it the telephone company shall make
report of lt property to local asxessors.
Mr. Morsman desired that the board In
terpret local aaHenaor to mean county as
sessor. '
After deliberating over the matter most
of the afternoon the board decided not to
come around to Mr. Monynan's way of
thinking, but that the company should
not only make lt return to the counfy ns
sesitor, but to the local or deputy assessor
as well. It also gives the county assessor
authority to use the report In Instructing
his deputies. Should the assessor desire
to do so under this ruling It Is leltet-el
that he could give the deputies returns
from the report made to him. A member
of the board, however, argued '.hat the
cour.ty aje'r could use the report as
a check on the company and on his
deputies.
It would mean considerable expanse and
much trouble to the rompany, Mr. Mors
man argued. If the company had to make
returns to every deputy assessor that
askeJ for It. While If local assessor meint
county assessor, then there would be only
ninety returns to re n.ado out. If It was
the other way. then pro'.iabiy 1.000 returns
would have to he mad. In any author-

The matte river la still out of its banks cn

be Irge and cannot be determined until
the waters mibeldc. The goree In the river
east of this city Is what has caused the
dan-age. Last night the water rotse very
rapidly, reading around the packing house
and over the entire country to the south
east. It waa reported here this morning
that a big bunch of ahwp, numbering 1.SO0,
had buen cVrowned at Nick Schrctner's place
a mile and a half east of the jacking house.
but later reports are that Schrelner will

low place southeast of the ranch buildings
and rapidly filled with water and some
floating I co. The men evened the yard and
got the sheep 'out as rapidly as possible,
but. In the darkneas and roaring ice and
water it waa a dangerous Job. At daylight
the work was renewed. A good many shee.p
supposed to be foaling around dead proved
tn. be very much alive and the baud was
driven to a higher place on an Island sur

About midnight the water reached the
