Four or five weeks ago a tire was
discovered in a stack of straw back of
a barn owned by Robert Noble at
Riceville. It was put out without
any serious loss. A short time after
a stack of hay owned by Mr. Roberts
was burned and last week a new barn
owned by J. C. Coles in south part of
the town was discovered to be on lire
and was totally destroyed and it was
only by hard work that his new house
and other buildings were saved. Fri
day afternoon another alarm was giv
en and the barn of H. Monholand was
found to be on fire and in a short time
was burned to ashes. It was a total
loss as there was no insurance. Lee
Fox, a 10-year-old boy of Jasper Fox,
was suspected of setting the last lire
and when arrested by Marshal Swift
he confessed to setting all of the above
tires, also Betting fire to his father's

Reply 'Board
Nearly 100 people visited the Cresco
Driving grounds last Sunday. Last
Wednesday evening nearly 25 young
men of the town gathered there to
practice ball. The last Board of Re
view In the city council room of Cres
co, raised the taxed valuation of these
grounds from $1,600 to $4,000, or near
ly 143^ dollars per acre more than any
blocks of land of Its size around it.
This is rather hard pay and very poor
thanks to the stockholders of this cor
poration—the Cresco Driving Park—
for its liberality shown to the public
in the past, and very poor encourage
ment for the continuance of the same.
—From the PLAIN DEALER of May 3.
Were it not that the above state
ment is so far from the real facts in
the case the undersigned would have
passed the matter b^, leaving the pub
lie to judge for itself as to the justicc
of raising the assessed valuation of
the Fair Grounds but as the gentle
man who wrote the above article was
present with "the last Board of Re
view in the city council room of Cres
co" when the assessment was raised
from $1,600 to $3,000—not $4,000—and
expressed himself as being satisfied
with the action of the "Board of Re
view, it seems strange thathe should
give for publication an article so mis
leading.
As to the justice of raisiDg the as
sessed valuation of these grounds will
say that "the stockholderslof this cor
poration" have been offered $4,500 for
the grounds and the offer is now good.
The "Board of Review" owes the tax
payers an explanation for not raising
the assessed valuation to the cash
offer of $4,500 on same. One reason
for not doing so may be given, is that
the "Board" gave due consideration
to the "liberality shown the public in
the past. BOARD or REVIEW.
As the real estate pit of the Board
of Review has spoken and made an
other bid, and as the writer of this
article met with the Board of Beview
on April 15, 1901, in behalf of the
Cresco Driving Park, the above criti
cism may place me before the public
as saying something that had never
happened, therefore I give the public
the benefit of the notice dated at the
council chamber in Cresco, April 9,
1901.
To the Cresco Driving 'Park (Fair
Grounds:)
You are hereby notified that at
the adjourned regular meeting of the
Board of Review of the city of Cresco,
Iowa, held at the council chamber in
said city, April 9,1901, that your as
sessment on the Cresco Driving Park
was raised from $1,600 to $4,000, and
you are hereby required to appear be
fore the Board on the 15th day of
April 1901, and show cause (if any you
have), why such assessment should
not be made. P. C. HOWE,
Clerk of the Board or Review, city of
Cresco, Iowa.
On the dated mentioned in that
notice I met with the Honorable
Board of Review and am thankful for
Its cut of $1,000 in the assessment, and
said that "if they thought it right I
would have to be satisfied with it,
right or wrong.
But I am more dissatisfied with the
malicious insinuation, bearing the
ear marks of its author, than with
the assessment, and cannot allow it
to go unnoticed as it is a direct assault
upon the association.
In assessing property for the pur
pose of taxation, I know of no better
method than comparing it with like
property around it. On the night I
met with the Board of Review I ex
plained to that body that theimrove
ments and buildings on the grounds
were mostly the property of the How
ard County Agricultural Society and
should not be taxed to the Driving
Park Association, and 1 still think so.
Other real estate as feasibly located,
nearer to the town, with valuable im
provements belonging to the owners
of the land are assessed at $05.00 per
acre, while the land of the driving
park without valuable building of its
own is assessed at nearly $200.00 per
acre. It is to the inji^stice of this
discrimination that the driving park
association complains. Either its
land is assessed too high, or the ad
joining lands too low, and the Board
of Review can take which ever horn
of the dilemma it chooses.
While we were making this explan
ation to the Honorable Board of Re
view one of its members offered $4,000
fur this property, and before I left the
room he raised his own bid to $4,500,
and now over the signature "Board of
Review" he makes another bid of
$4,500. What does the public suppose
the Roard of Review wants of the fair
grounds'? Now the "thrifty" end of
this "Board of Review" would be just
as safe in offering $9,000 for this'proper
ty as he is in offering what he has, as
it is not for sale at an price. We are
very much obliged to .-o gentleman
for his broad, liberal thought in
"giving due con&iQcmtion to the liberal
ity shown the public in the past," as
we are sure that that will go a long
way toward keeping the boards on the
fence and shingles on the roof.
While the Cresco Driving Park Ras
been a private corporation, it has also
been a public one. It has been a bene
fit to Cresco,and with the assistance of
the Howard County Agricultural So
ciety, it has helped advertise the
farmer, the mechanic, the live stock,
and live stock breeders of Howard
county. The public has po|c ted to it
with pride, it has been use(ft,y a cer
tain class of the people of Cresco ever
since it was built, 13 years ago, and is
being so used today bv the public in
a way that no private individual can
refuse. All of this has been done
without one cent of donation to its
stockholders since its organization,

the nice boquets that the above items

we still move on with the approval of

Suicide Near Plymouth Rock.
Last Wednesday afternoon the body
of James Mathews, a farmer living in
Burr Oak township near Plymouth
Rock, was found by members of the
family, hanging by the neck from a
tree, a short distance from the house.
Mr. Mathews was about 76 years old
and was well known in that part of
the county, where he had lived for
many years. He came in from his
work to dinner on Wednesday as
usual, remaining a while after the
meal about 2 o'clock left the house
and went to the barn, not returning
to the house again. About 5 o'clock
the family becoming alarmed at the
prolonged absence, went in seach of
him, and found him hanging to a tree
not over 100 feet from the house. He
had procured a halter from the barn,
fastened it to a limb of the tree,
which was not above the reach of an
ordinary sized person, stepped upon a
chair and adjusting a noose about his
neck, kicked the chair from under his
feet. When cut down by the Sheriff
and the others his feet were resting
upon the ground. Blood covered his
face from a wound inflicted in the
morning by his wife striking him
with a piece of wood during a family
quarrel, which we understand were
not infrequent. Domestic difficulties
were undoubtedly the cause of his
