Holds it Unnecessary. It Is further held that It is unnecessary for the Water board to have the books of the water company. Inasmuch as the Water board has deemed in ordrr to making the reduction of .neter rales, to enjoin which this suit Is brought, that said reduction was made after investigating the affairs of the water company. It is further held that the Water board does not in Its motion describe the books to be examined or show' what books are claimed to contain the Informa tion sought, but that tho whole plan of said motion for the production of the books la unmistakably to explore the private affairs of the water company without regard ta the question involved In this ault, and to enable the Water boarUHo use f,.r u't il.n purposes partial, garbled and irrelevant statements regarding the business and affairs of tho water company. ne water board is given until Saturday to answer the foregoing motion of the water company. granite and Is made by Marr eV Gordon, at a cost of about tl.GOO.

COUNTY ASSESSOR'S MOTION PREVAILS lr Horace Plunkett and T. J. Ms honey Anions; Those Who be. . core Concessions from the Board. Messrs. Rohrbough and Boylea, proprie tors of business colleges, appeared before the County Board of Equalisation Friday afternoon and protested against any as sessment being levied on their property. They claimed that under the law and the decisions of the supreme court this class of property Is exempt from taxation. The city attorney has consistently bo decided, they said, and County Attorney Blabaugh expressod the same opinion to them. They offered to get a written opinion from Judge Blabaugh backing up their contention. Assessor Reed said that in his opinion the question never has been passed on under the new revenue law. Judge Slabaugh's oral opinion to Messrs. Rohrbough and Boylea was possibly based on a supreme court decision given before the new revenue law was passed. He moved that the com plaints be dismissed In order that the pro testers could go into court and get a de cision on the point. The two business college men said they would prefer to avoid going to court and insisted that the board ought to take the opinion of the county attorney as conclu sive. Chairman McDonald and Assessor Reed said such an opinion would not change their views on the matter. This settled It and the motion of Mr. Reed was passed unanimously. The real estate assessment of Sir Horace C. Plunkett, amounting to (132,000, was cut to the extent of 17,600. E. E. Bruce Drug company's assessment on personal property was fixed at SUO.000. Attorney John C. Wharton,, appearing for the Nebraska Clothing company, asked that the assessor's figures, fl.OOO on personal property, be reduced. The firm's return was S95.400. If that was not allowed to stand Mr. Wharton Insisted that the as sessment should not be over $100,000. Mr. Levy had, he said, before departing for Europe, made a fair and honest return and sworn to it. He could not understand why the board ahould go back of that re turn. Ignore Majority of inch. "We are compelled to Ignore a majority of the sworn returns." replied Assessor Reed. "They do not furnish any informa tion of value and moat of these protests are backed up by what we call clever talks. Those who employ able counsel go to the city council aud get a reduction. while those who do not generally draw a raise." "Then, unfortunately for Mr. Levy, he did not employ able counsel, for we ap peared before the city council, and after giving testimony he got a raise." "Yes," said Mr. Reed, "and last year Mr. Levy appeared before this board and testified. As a result his assessment was fixed at $140,000. This year his return Is less than last year and It is only raised to $124,000. I consider that reasonable and Just." The board, after further argument, de cided to make the assessment $106,000, which was the figure fixed by the city. Attorney Kinsler and Manager Butler of the Adams Express company appeared to protest against a raise from the return of $12,380 to $18,000. They asserted that the return was. based on their total receipts from business within Nebraska, as re quired, by law, and they were not willing to pay on any more, "Besides, we need the money," said Mr. Reed with a pleasartt. smile. Attorney T. J. Mahoney, after what As sessor Reed called "one of those clever talks," was allowed a reduction of $5,000 on the assessment of his new home, still unfinished. It now stands at $10,500. The board has reached an agreement to take up the protests of the large business houses In a bunch. ' Next Wednesday the South Omaha packers will have a hearing. Armour's is the first protest filed by the packers. The company's assessment Is placed at $040,000, the same as lust year. Attorney Mahoney argued that 'this figure Is excessive because the company has less pork stock on hand since the Sioux City house is again at work.
