Rumors Officially Confirmed
General Manager Bidwell of the
Fremont, Elkhorn \ Missouri Valley
railway returned yesterday from tie
ead of the Ne,digris branch, where he
put force of Surveyors at work plat
ting the new extension into Niobrara
and then west across the NiObrara
river into Boyd county.
Mr.. Bmwell speaks enthusiastically
of the produce possibilities in the
region to be- tapped by this extension
and says that ec:ual construction will
begin just as early next year as tie
thawiug of the earth will permit.
The bridge necessary to cross the
Niobrara river will be between 800 aud
900 feet in length. but despite this fact
and the delay that must ensue before
any construction eau be commenced,
Mr.. Hidwell is fairly confident that
the Fremont, Elkhorn Il Missouri
| Valley line will haul crops, cattle and
other produce out of Boyd county at
the close of next falls harvest.
1t was last Wednesday night that
Mr.. Bidwell took the surveyors up
north with HIM. They went to work
the next day and are establishing, first
of all, the line from Nerdigris to Mo
brara, which is the same county, Knox
and is eleven miles north aud one mile
east of Verdigrss.
The gang will then tarn directly
west toward Boyd county, the east
border of which is lst fifteen miles
distant The objective point Is Lynch,
nine miles inside the county line on
Ponca creek. This,is thirty-tive miles
of projected railway, being enough to
keep the surveyors busy for time.
i Mr.. Bidwell fastened back to Omaha
on his way to Chicago to confer with
, President Hnghitt aud Other officers
of the Northwestern system as regards
their further plans bee.

Science is doing wonders these days
in medicine as well as in mechanics.
Since Adam delved, the human race
has been troubled with dandrutf, for
which no hair preparation has hereto
fore proved successful cure until
Newbro's Herpicide was put on the
market. 1t is a scientific preparation
that kills the germ that makes dand-
ruff or scurf by digging into the scalp
to get at the root of the hair, where it
saps the vitality; causing itching scalp,
falling hair and finally badness.
Without dandruif hair must grow
luxuriantly. Herpicide at all drug

State Tax Revision Committee
Concludes Its Junket.

The tax revision commission will be-
gin the drafting of its tax bill at once.
It will be drawn along the lines of the
law in use in Indiana The commits
sioners came back from their visit to
the national tax conference yesterday
and scattered to their several homes
Attorney General GODDARD said that
they had received valuable suggestions
at the meeting. They were especially
impressed with the Indiana system.
The governor, attorney general and two
tax commissioners of that state were at
the conference. and the recommendation
they gave their law was very striking
State Senator Bucklin, of Colorado, was
there also. There were college men,
theorists, single takers, practical tax
men and all kinds represented
Speaking of the Indiana law, Attor-
ney General GODDARD said:
The principal feature of the Indiana
law is the directness with which it gets
at personal property valuations Rec
ords are kept of all notes, mortgages
and bonds issued, and as far as possible
of all n oneys on deposit in banks
There is a county assessor. who has
supervision over all the local assessors
The board of county commissioners,
which in that state has broader
powers than ours, reyises the work of
the assessors and equalizeS the assess
ments. The county assessors hold an
nual conventions and discuss values
They determine standards of value by
soil and crop conditions. Finally the
entire work is under the supervision of
two state tax commissioners.
LAS a result of the operation of this
law in Indiana in five years they have
trebled their personal property valua-
tions''
There is a rumor to the effect that
the new bill win be based on a purely
land tax system, getting close to the
nature of the single tax. Mr.. GODDARD
said he was not aware of any such in
tention. and that the states constitu-
ton requires that both real and per-
sona1 property be taxed on the same
basis.
