About Railroad Taxation.
Following is the supreme court
syllabus m the case from this district
regarding the right of county com
missioners to change the valuation of
railroads for county taxation pur
poses: 1, Whenever the valuation of tax
able property in any county is changed
by the slate board of equalization,
the board of equalization, the board
of county commissioners of such
county, is authorized to use the valua
tion so tixed by the state board as a
basis for making their levies for all
purposes, but are not bound so to do.
2. Section 1 of article 11 of the
constitution is not violated by the
action of the local taxing authorities
refusing to adopt the valuations fixed
by the state board in making their
levy lor the current expences of the
county, or for any other purpose ex
cept state taxes.
All the justices concurring.
There is more catarrh in thif section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable,
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local desease, and pro
scribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment pronounced it Incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a consti
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, it the
only constitutional core on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful, It
acts directly on the blood and mucous
turfacei of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
faili to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials.

TOPPING REELECTED,
Enterprise Han Still Secretary State
Millers' Association.
The twenty-seventh annual meet
ing of the Kansas Millers' association
was held yesterday afternoon in To
peka. There were forty members
from different parts of the State in
attendance. The meeting was called
to order at 2:30 o'clock with President
George H. Hunter, of Wellington,
presiding, and C. V. Topping, of En
terprise, secretary.
The keynote of the convention
proved to be the proposition of dis
posing, through agents outside of the
State, of the surplus flour made by
Kansas mills. A committee was ap
pointed to discuss and make a report
on the matter, but It failed to reach
an agreement. The proposition
proved to be too great for a few
hours' thought to solve, so the com
mittee was given more time for delib
eration and to make the report.
At 6:30 o'clock another abort meet
ing was held for the election of offic
ers for the ensuing year. J. H. Mc
Nair, of Halstead, was elected presi
dent; A. J. Hunt, Arkansas City, vice
president; C. V. Topping, of Enter
prise, was re-elected secretary and
David Bowie, of Topeka, treasurer.
The place of holding the next meet
ing was not decided upon.

GOT INTO THE "SUN '.
Abilene Man Geti an Editorial Men-
I tion in New York.
It is not every day that an Abilene
man gets an editorial notice in so
great a paper as the New York Sun.
But one did it this week. That pa
per at the close of an editorial on the
wheat crop of the State says:
There is need for more preachers
of this sort in Kansas. That the les
son, plain as it is, needs a preceptor,
is made evident by this item in the
Kansas City Journal:
"I. 8. Italian) of Dickinson county, Kansas,
got down In I lie nioulli a few weeks uito and
contracted the product of his wheat farm to
a local dealer at 50 cents u bushel, lie has
harvested a Hue crop and figures that at the
present price la Abilene be Is out Just twin."
Can't you see Hallam? Can't you
hear him telling what he thiuks of
the man who told him that the, rising
price of wheal was a bunco trick of
capital, and that the quicker he sold,
the more he'd save from the wreck?.
Sound people are not those to whom
the smart quack goes with his nos
trums. The people of Kansas are
apt to be in a mighty healthy frame
of mind this fall. Individuals whose
farming experience is limited to the
wearing of overalls in photograph
galleries may rind it profitable to
bear the fact in mind during the
coming campaign.
SOLD $25 000 WORTH HERE.
Dickinson County Invested Heavily
in Threshing Machinery
One of the effect of the good wheat
harvest was the increased sale of
threshing machinery. A dealer who
is iu a position to know says that at
least ten complete outfits engine
and separator have been sold in this
county this season at an avcrago cost
of $'.',500, This means that the
threshers expect to earn a good deal
of money. Shockey & Landes who
do a large jobbers trade as western
agents for Frick & Co.' have sold
about 150,000 worth of threshing
machinery to parties outside of the
county. It will be used in western
and northwestern Kansas.

Their Injuries Not Fatal.
A few days ago we noted the in
juries received by Mrs. Charles Lee,
daughter of Commissioner Baker, who
with her five children was in terri
ble trolley car disaster at Tacoma,
Wash., on the morning of July 4.
The Tacoma Ledger has this to say
about the family: "Mrs. Chas. O. Lee
and two children, a boy and a girl,
are at the Fanny Paddock. Mrs. Lee
lives in South Tacoma, and her hus
band is a traveling man. She was
bringing her five children in to see
the parade. None of them sustained
serious Injuries, though all are bruis
ed and cut somewhat. Richard 7 year"
old, was killed outright; and Lyman,
his twin brother and his sister are at
the Fanny Pad.lock. Roscoe another
brother, was taken to the St. Joseph,
but was not hurt much. The babe a
year old is missing, but is said to be
with a family In the sixth addition.
Mr. Lee was in Medford, Or., last
night on his way homo, and ho tele
phoned his brother, II. M. Lee, that
he would reach Tacoma tonight."
Was it a Miracle?
"The marvellous cure of Mrs. Kena
J. Stout of consumption has created
intense excitement in Cammack, Ind."
writes Marion Stuart, a leading drug
gist of Muncie, Ind. She only weighed
90 pounds when ber doctor In York
town said she must soon die. Then
she tried Dr. King's New Discovery
and gained 37 pounds in weight and
was completely cured." It has cured
thousands of hopeless case, and is pos
itively guaranteed to cure all Throat,
Chest and Lung diseases. 60c and $1

MAT BE A SUGAR PLANTATION.
Topolobampo Colony Landi to Be
Purchased by Speculators.
A Buffalo capitalist who was here
this week says that a syndicate in
that city has been formed to purchase
the lands of the old Topolobampo
colony on the west coast of Mexico
and use them tor a vast sugar planta
tion, employing clieap Mexican labor.
The company has inspected the lands
and finds a favorable outlook. It has
secured land belonging to the colony
and has bought up private claims un
til it has a large tract and it expects
to utilize the irrigation ditch that
was nearly completed by the co-operative
company.
Prominent Hawaii sugar planters
are interested in tho scheme and an
expert is now cn route to inspect the
conditions of soil and climate. If his
report is favorable they will invest
largely. The chief drawback at pres
ent is the lack of market connections,
The building of the proposed Topolo
bampo & Kansas City road would
much enhance tho value of the colony
lands,
