Importance and that aome solution should be reached as speedily as possible. A'.ininB- that the crxnty auditor failed to reduce the nssssn erit on farm lands In Kane township for the years 1 and 14 as directed by the state bnard of Review. City Assessor W. D. Hardin yes terday filed with the Board of Supervisors a claim for about H.SnO, the amount of taxes said to hare been wrong-fully col lected. The claim la made by Hardin as "agent" for the property owners alleged to have boon overtaxed. In the communication accompanying the claim, or, more properly speaking, collec tion of claims. Hardin recites that In 1808 and 1P04 the State Board of Review directed the county auditor to reduce the nssess tr.ent on all lands within the county, Inncludlng lands In Incorporated cities and towns not divided Into lots of ten acres or less, 10 per cent The auditor. Hardin alleges, failed to comply with this order at least so far as Kane township was con cerned and aska that the county now refund the amount of the tax Illegally col lected with 6 per cent interest from date of collection. .v The list of claims filed by Hardin, aggre gate about S1.6W. Tho largest refunds sought are for the taxes paid by the East Omaha Land company E. W. Nash, J. A. Crelghton, Leonard Everett, who owned considerable land within the city limit of Council- Dluffs-which Is held 'for agricultural purposes only." In all there are forty-two claims, ranging from a few dollars to 1200. The whole matter was referred by the board to County Attorney Hess, and it Is ' likely that the courts will be appealed to before the supervisors consent to giving up any of the county's cash to City Asses sor Hardin. Borne months ago it was stated that Hardin was securing assignments from heavy Taxpayers throughout Pottawat tamie county of claims against the county for some lex said to have been illegally or wrongfully assessed but at the time Har din declined to give out arly Information, it now develops that Ilardln was under the Imrrcislon that the 10 per cent re duction ortfoted by the State Board of Re view had not been made anywhere in the county but subsequent investigation by him disclosed the fact that only lands within the limits of the city of Council Bluffs had not been given the benefit of the reduction. County Auditor Cheyne. while not giv. lug the list presented by Hardin for exam ination expressed the belief that a num ber of 10-acre plots were included In the lot and that these did not come under the order Issued by the 3tatc Board of Review. R. V. Innes, who was county auditor In J9CS, said that while lie did not remember ' all of the circumstances he was of the opinion that It was decided at the time that the 10 per cent reduction did not apply to lands in Council Bluffs. Mr. Innes said a he remembers the order was taken to apply to farm landa outside towns and cities only. f Contract for Plat Books. The board entred Into a contract with T. R. 6mlth, eon of Elmer E. Smith of the Abstract Title Guaranty company, 'and County Surveyor J. Harley Mayne, under the firm name of Smith & Mayne to bring up the county's plat books to date. For this work Smith A Mayne are to receive 13 cents for description of regularly platted addition and cents on all irregular de scriptions, auditor's subdivisions.

The Pottawattamie County Abstract com pany offored to do the work for 26 cents a description for city lots and 36 cents a description for farm lands. It to furnish all material. On the ground that the same Jurisdiction was lacking the board refused to concur in the action of the city council remitting the taxes of the Kretchmer Manufacturing company and the Standard Manufacturing company. The taxea of these firms had been cancelled by the city council under an ordlnano which authorise the remission of taxe of now manufacturing concerns and other industries located In the city, for a period of five years. Such cancellation of taxes were Intended a an Inducement to manufactories and other Industries to lo cate In Council Bluff. . The board, how ever, secured a legal opinion to the effect that It had no power to cancel such taxes, even by merely concurring In the action of the -city council. In hi report, H. J.

While "pro gressives'' were In control of yesterday's re publican state convention, they did not be.ir down with any undue rigor on the "stand patters." They adopted a state platform riving enthusiastic endorsement to Gover nor Cummins and the progressive legisla tion upon railroad and corporation ques tions, but they also nave warm endorse ment to the services of the Iowa delegation In congress and especially to Senator Wil liam B. Allison and a pledge fur his re election. The "progressives" secured control of the new state central committee, controlling It by a majority of one. The committee, nominated Judge Scott M. Ladd and Silas M. Weaver to succeed themselves on the supreme bench, and also went through the formality of approving the nominations for state officers made In recent primaries. The convention gave loud applause to tho mentjon of the name of Senator William H. Allison and Senator Dolllver. and It gave a demonstration of some minutes when Governor Cummins responded to calls for a short speech. Governor Cummins spoke in good spirit and pledged himself to work for republican success. The platform adopted in addition to commending legislation for 2-cent fares, abolition of railway passes, prohibiting corporation contributions to campaign funds and compelling publicity for cam paign expenditures, pledge loyal suppoit to Taft and Sherman, national nominees, and the national platform. The convention also adopted the follow ing resolution with respect lo the death of Grover Cleveland: Resolved, That this convention ha learned with regret of the death of for mer President Cleveland, an executive whose patriotism, firmness ttnd courage challenged the admiration of his follow countrymen of all parties nd nonored among all men. It extends Its sympathy to his bereaved family and to the nation he loved and served with fidelity. With the building of the Chautauqua grounds, where the convention is being held, well filled and the crowd more than enthusiastic, the convention got down to business at 1:4$ p. m. Speech of Mr. Hart. C. F. Frank of the state central com mittee read the official call. Hon. W. 3. Hart of Waukon was Introduced as the temporary chairman and spoke aj follows: Whatever differences, either upon the personality of our leadership) or the oollcy of our party may at times Inflame our animosities or Irritate the placidity of our councils here at home, Iowa has never railed In her enthusiastic and loyal ratifl laLiuu iu urn imiiiniti piaiiurm, ana it uas been our good fortune that in all matters of policy wherein there ha been aught, either of uncertainty or dispute, that plat form has never failed to voice the domi nant sentiment of the republicans of the state. And I venture no uncertain statement when I say that throughout Iowa there ia a satisfaction and rejoicing, that from the first reading of the national platform to those who so desired It, and the second reading or the third at the utmost to those who wished It otherwise, it is clear that the maintenance of the protective idea la Mill the cornerstone of republicanism: that from the platform of our party rings out the grand old battle cry of protection with all Its old-fashioned simplicity, strength and significance: without one word of qual ification to limit or mystify Its meaning or one accent of apology for It utterance.

The Iowa Idea of a protective tariff Is the nation-wide doctrine of the republican party, that there must be all the protec tion required to give to home Industry the exclusive American field, so far as It can occupy the same, at a clear profit, after paying wages commensurate with the American Idea of sufficient earnings to maintain a comfortable home owned by the wage earner himself, with something laid by for the rainy day of sickness and misfortune, and when the duty goes be yond such limitations, and only then. It should be stricken off without question as a burden for which there ia no rightful beneficiary.
