suit just commenced here by T. L. Nc,
Intosh, attorney for the citizens commit
tee, which has been keeping watch of the
county board for a year past. The suit
aims to have set aside tax settlement
made between S. g. Newton Of Milwaukee

receipts having been issued upon the pay
ment Of about half the amount taxed up.
The property Is in the town Of Brule,
this county and is owned by Mr.. Villas.
This suit Is a test case and If Mr.. Nc
Intosh wins it will means that tax re-
ceipts amounting In all to many thousands
OF dollars can be knocked out in the same
way, for the county board in the past
ten years has settled a multitude of cases
by voting to accept less than face for the
taxes. In this case about one-half was

 mess and arrange for the installation
 G: the succeeding board. Tomorrow
 morning at 10 o'clock the new board will meet to consider the matter of let
 ting school book contracts for which advertisements have been made.
 Regarding the school books. there seems to be considerable dissatisfac ctiun among the teachers all over the terri tory, though the proper steps have not i been taken 70 secure q general change. ! Under a law passed by the last leSis- latur, the books can be changed only- on the request of q majority of the county school superirteHdents. These officials should report the changes de- sired iB time for the territorial super intendent t0 advertise for bids. In this instance q majority of the teachers have asked for q change in nothing but readers and copy books. Though TO changes can be made under the law except on the request of the county su- pelintendents, the board Of education
 can use it's judgment and still refuse
 to make the change if il sees fit. The members or the board Of edu- cation are the governor. the territorial superintendent President r. Yale Adams of the university, who is now in the city, Principal Matthews O; the Tempe normal school and Principal Taylcr of the Northern Arizona nor mal who will arrive on this mornings train.

RAIN HAS DELAYED
 WORK ON THE FARMS
Weather Bureau Issues Sum-
 mary of Crop Conditions
CORN PLANTING HAS BEGUN
In Texas and Florida Cotton Planting Is We'll Advanced, But Nothing Has Been Done In Georgia
 and Alabama.

Washington, April 1.-The weather bu- of the crop conditions for March:
 The weather conditions of March were generally favorable for farming opera tions in the states of the Missouri, upper Mississippi and Ohio valleys, and on the Atlantic coast north of North Carolina. The month was also favorable in Florida, Texas and Oklahoma, but over the greater part of the Central and East Gulf states it was unfavorable, largely on account of excessive rains. Throughout the cen tral and east gulf states farm work is from two to three weeks late and In many sections much land has been badly washed. On the Pacific coast the month was cool and the season is generally back ward.
 There has been a very general, and in some sections, a marked improvement in the condition of winter wheat in the states of the Central Valleys, although much of the late sown is in poor condi- ton and some will be plowed up for other crops. The cool weather on the Pacific coast has started the growth of winter wheat, but on the whole the croI is in a promising condition.
 Some spring wheat was sown over the Southern portion of the spring wheat re- zion at the close of the month.
 Dat seeding is well advanced in the states of the Missouri valley and is pro- gressing the Ohio valley and middle At lantic states all sown oats In the South ern states have been winter killed to a great extent.
 Corn planting has begun as far North ward as Kansas and Missouri and pre- parations for planting are in progress far ther north. In Texas the bulk of the corn crop has been planted and some Is being cultivated. Considerable planting has also been done in the central and East Gulf and South Atlantic states
 In Texas and Florida cotton planting is well advanced, but in Georgia, Ala bama, Mississippi and Louisiana none has yet been planted, and very little ground has peen prepared owing to heavy rains.
 The general outlook for fruit, excepting peaches is encouraging.

Hello. Bill.

"TIello Bill' will be the attraction at the Jefferson theatre this afternoon and again tonight. There will be bargain day matinee. A Peoria, Ill.,, critic said of the play:
 " Hello Bill presented at the Grand last night, Is to laugh It is a legiti- mate farce comedy, if farce may be call ed legitimate, and is all right except the name There is no reason why it should be called Hello Bill. "A Joyful Oddity,' which MT. Goodhue uses in de- scribing the play, or "A Pair of Liars would be a better name. It is well plan ned and well written, the plots and coun- terplots, which are numerous and com plicated being worked out much more in- telligently than Is usual In light comedies. The company as a whole is good. Thomas J. Grady, who plays the most prominent part, is a genuine comedian of the quiet sort and he has a good partner in crime in Warren w. Ashley, who suc- ceeds in mixing things when he tries to fix them. There are four handsome la dies in the cast and all do their parts we'll particularly the one who doubles as Mary and Matilda. Hello Bill will stay until Wednesday night with matinee every afternoon"

COMMITTEE GAN
 CALL A PRIMARY Famous Tompkins Resolution
 Answers All Argument FULL AUTHORITY IS GIVEN It Seems Now That There Will Be Some Change In Vote of Execu-
 tive Committee on the Pri.
 mary Question at Meeting.
FULL AUTHORITY IS GIVEN
BY E. E. kERsH.

Montgomery, April 1-( -(SpeciaD-Friends of O Democratic primary for the selection of State ticket are greatly elated at the manner in which the suggestion is being received. From every section of the state comes favorable expressions for a primary and 1t is now believed by many that the sentiment will become so strong by the time the state committee is call ed together as to force that body to order a prim ary.
 It has been generally conceded that the committee was largely anti-primary, but when this poll was made the ques- tion had not been freely discussed. and public sentiment was not known
 There is no doubt, however but that the primary Is to be stubbornly fought In the committee. The opponents of the plan are preparing to argue that the committee is without authority to order primary. being merely the creature of convention it can only call another con- vention. This argument is easily met, however. The state committee has been vested with full authority by resolution of a Democratic State convention. This resolution was adopted by the convention of 1892. and there has been no repeating resolution adopted since that date.
 The Tompkins Resolution.
 The authority, is found in subdivision two Of what has ever since been term ed the "Tompkins Resolutions" These reso- lutlons have governed every meeting of the state committee since that date where the matter of authority has come into question. From the official proceed fngs of the convention of date June Il, 1892, the following extract is made:
 "The following resolutions were also presented by the committee and read by Colonel Tompkins
 Resolved, That it is the duty of the State Executive Committee 10 preserve the integrity of the party organization and to this end they shall have power and authority.
 First-To prescribe the qualifications of voters at the primaries of the party.
 Second. To provide such rules in respect to the primaries as will insure a fair and full expression of the will of every Democrat and give to each one his due and proper influence in the selection of delegates and candi- dates.
 'Third-To consider. and if they deem wise, to petition the Legislature to pass laws regulating the primaries of the party and punishing any fraud or wrong ful conduct therein.
 ''Fourth-To provide so that the pri- msries for the selection of delegates to the State and Congressional conventions shall be held in every precinct on the same day.
 'F ifth-That whenever any nominee of regular Democratic convention in this State shall fail or refuse to support the nominees of this convention, that all Democrats are dissolved from supporting
