bonds as such are not taxable and the state
docs not attempt to tax them the stock Cf
the bank is taxable In the hands Of the

be enhanced by the fact that the bank owns
government bonds and assessors should con

stock The numerous decisions, state anl
federal sustaining these bonds no longer
leave 1t an open question.
Attorney Bemloys holding will he read
with much interest throughout the state.
1t involves a question which comes up every
time state assessments are made. Hereto
fore it has been settled by local county
attorneys and there has been a difference
OF opinion as to whether there should me
a deduction in favor Of the United States
bonds. The attorney generals opinion was
asked for by the state auditor to satisfy an
inquiry which came in recently from a
county treasurer.
The state executive council met this
morning to take up the question OF rail,
road assessment in Iowa. Nothing was
done except to fix n number Of dates for
hearings owing to the tact thht all tHo
reports of the roads are not yet in. The
council has announced that the hearings
this year will be public. There has been
no rule regarding this heretofore. None OF
the council has ever objected openly to
the hearing being attended by outsiders,
but they have never been considered by
the public as open meetings.

JAMES LEE is ADJuDGED GUILTY.
Convicted of Breaking Into IA store
and Carrying ON Goods.

In the district court yesterday, the jury
in the case of the State against James Lee,
charged with breaking and entering Sar-
gents store and stealing two pairs Of shoes
brought in a verdict of guilty. Judge Thor
nell announced that he will pass sentence
Friday morning, There are still two other
charges against Lee, one for stealing pho
tograph album from Davis drug store and
the other for the theft of a miscellaneous
assortment OF articles from Camp Brothers
drug store.
At the conclusion of the Lee case, the
trial of Edward Lincoln, the negro charged
with robbing George Tempar, a white man
was taken up. Templar who has been held
in the county jail as a witness since Deem
Der Il charges that Lincoln robbed him
while visiting at his rooms over Saltzman's 5
second hand store on Broadway. He said
he met Lincoln in a saloon and after taxi
ing two or three drinks went to his room
where Lincoln stole 500. When accused OF
it, Lincoln returned $50 and then under
preteXt of going after the balance got Tenn
plar aboard an Omaha car. Upon reaching
Omaha, Lincoln gave Templar the slip and
returned 10 Council Bluffs, where he was
arrested the next morning Lncoln's de-
fense is that he did not steal the money from
Templar, but won it in a game of poker.
Templar was still on the stand when court
adjourned.

CAPTAIN SHOOTS THREE MEN

dergo "A Speedy Retributi0n.

PHILADELPHIA, March 6.-Captain Tor
rance, commanding the British tanker
Tancarvlle, now at this port, shot three
mutinous sailors on his last outward pas
sage to Belfast. 1t was on January 10 last,
while weathering terrific hurricane.
His vessel was driving into n tremendous
sea and a spar propeller that was lashed
below got adrft and threatened to knock
the sides out of the ship. Captain Tor
rance ordered the crew below to secure
the propeller and the men mutinied, Heroic
action was necessary TO quell the disturb
ance and Captain Torrance was compelled
TO shoot three men, One, 1t is understood,
has died and a second has gone insane
Captain Torrance's actions were inyesti-
gated by the Board OF Trade and he was
upheld by that body. He Is retiCent con
cernng the affair and feels keenly the fact
that such measures had to be adopted by
MIN to save the ship.

DES MONIES, Ia, March 6-(Special
TelegramJ-Russel Moore met a horrible
death at the Sailor coal mine near Highland
Park this morning. While walking about
the premises he fell down a shaft 2l5 feet
deep. He struck the bottom with such
force that his body when discovered was
mangied beyond all recognition. Moore
was single man 27 years old. He came
to this city from indianapolis eight weeks
ago and Immediately started to work. He
lived with George Hobson a farmer living
near the mine.
There is probability of the adjutant gen
eral of Iowa heading an Iowa regiment Of
regulars under the new army bill. This
may be General Melvin H. Byers. There
is much dissatisfaction among military cir
cles in regard to many OF the provisions OF
the bill. One of the chief arguments
against it is the provision by which all
commissions of the officers in the new army
Of regulation will expire at the end of two
years Ii is urged that under such provl-
sion 1t will be impossible to get competent
men to officer the regiments. Officers in
the regular army will not accept promotions
into the new army because, at the end of
two years their military career will be
ended. Good business men will not leave
private life because they have no prospect
Of promotion at the end OF two years and
meantime their business would suffer.
Adjutant General Byers is being men
toned in military circles in Iowa as ex-
cellenuy equipped for the position.
The attorney general today gave an opin-
ion to the state auditor in which he says
that in determining the value OF national
hank stock for assessment for taxation no
deductions should be made from the value
of such stock on account OF capital or funds
of the bank invested in United States bonds.
The actual value Of the stock should be as
certained and determined by the same
methods one would adopt II he wished to

The BEE WHEEL CONTESTS
The More that Enter the Contests, the Easier
the Wheels Will Be Won.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE BEES GREAT PLAN
It's So simple and Easy TINT Every
Council Bluns BOY or Girl and
Older People. TOO, VIII Hus-
tie In the Contests.

Every boy and girl will want to ride a
wheel this spring and The Bee is going to
give you chance to get one in very
simple way. What is more, 1t is going to
let you pick out any make wheel you want,
for 1t knows you all want certain make,
which is the only make on earth
Now let Ills tell you how The Bee is going
to give the wheels away We want lot OF
new subscribers to The Bee in Council
Bluffs. AS soon as the first 800 orders have
been handed into our office, the first con-
test closes and we will award the wheel TO
the one bringing the most orders out of
this 300 Then Contest No. ] closes and Con-
test No. opens on the next 800 orders.
Just see how easy this is. Say only thirty
girls and boys start out on March l to get
subscribers. They only have to average ten
apiece to make the total, so the winner Will
not have to get very many orders, you see.
You want to start in early and hand in your
orders soon as possibfe.
Now about the orders. Each order must
be for an actual new Council Bluffs sub
scriber Each subscriber must take The Bee
for at least three weeks and pay for it in
order TO be counted. 1t is better, but not
necessary, to pay in advance, only no order
will be counted until the subscription is
paid for. II the subscription is paid for in
advance it will count one on your score for
each three weeks for which it is prepaid.
For example: II a subscriber pays in ad-
vance for six weeks, 1t counts two; if he
pays for twelve weeks, it will count four;
If he pays for one year. it will count seven
teen. On orders which are not paid in ad-
vance it will count only one on your score
no matter how long he Continues to take it.
There, that is plain, isn't It? Now see
what you can do. The first contest begins
March l. Sincerely yours,
