- Sit hiiS GfSPSffSaIlSS IS M2QG AQ
Valorem.
Atlanta, July 20.-The question of
the taxation of dispensaries was set
tied in pretty short order yesterday
morning, when the house took up the
general tax act
The previous question was called,
further debate was shut off and q
vote on the various amendments was
begun.
AS a result the house restored the
former plan of leyying upon dispen-
saries an ad valorem tax in addition
to the 5000 specific tax, which is lev.
led upon all liquor dealers.
The house promptly and effectual,
ly sat down upon all the proposed
special orders but one, recommended
by the committee on rules.
With the exception of what is known
as the boil weevil bill, every one of
the Is or 20 proposed special orders
lost out. These last included the
bill to increase the salaries of judges
Of the superior courts and others of
similar Importance.
The boil weeviI bill provides for an
appropriation of $4,000 to the state
department of entomology for the pur.
pose of fighting the introduction into
the state of the Mexican boil wee
vii, and for the purpose of Keeping
in check other plant and fruit pests
in the state. This bill was made the
special order for next Tuesday, July
26.
Hon Augustine Dupont, of Dupont,
was sworn in Tuesday morning as the
representative from Clinch county,
succeeding the late Hon. r. B. John.
son, who died just before the open.
ing of the present session.
An effort to pass the resolution fix,
ing the bill requiring railroad compa
nies to equip lumber cars with stand
ards, as special order one day next
week, failed, after adverse action on
the resolution had been reconsidered
In The Senate.
The senate held busy session yes
terday and considerable business ot
Importance was transacted.
There was quite a lively debate be
tween Mr.. McMichael, of the twenty
fourth, and Mr.. Middlebrooks of the
tWenty-seventh, relative to a resolu
ton to pay pension to DR.. J. J. w
ID
Glenn was not technically entitled to
a pension under the law, but the house
had passed a resolution allowing the
pension to be paid. The measure
had been in the senate once before
and was defeated. Yesterday it was
reconsidered on motion of Mr.. Middle
brooks, of the twenty-seventh.
Mr.. McMichael, Of the twenty.
fourth, said he was opposed to the
paying of the pension because it was
illegal.
By unanimous vote of the senate
the Australian ballot bill was made
a special order for next Tuesday
Senators Hopkins and Coma were
appointed on the joint committee to
codify the game laws of the state
The joint committee of the house,
and senate on state sanitarium say
that conditions at the state institu.
ton for the insane is well nigh per
feet. The committee reiterates and
reaffirms it's report of 1902 and 1903
The committee declares that the
moneys appropriated by the state are
disbursed in the best possible manner,
and that the records are intelligently
and honestly kept. A tribute is paid

Game Commissioner Carter reports
the heaviest crops of prairie chicken,
grouse and quail raised in the state in
recent years. and IL is doubtful if ever
there we're more birds in the counties
now in the game region. MIR. Carter
says, too, that he does not agree with
those pessimists who are predicting
the ultimate determination of the
small game in this state. Says Mr..
Carter: "What happened TO the buf.
falo need not happen to the birds
The buffalo could not exist in a wild
state in a settled country: game birds
can exist in such a country and will
multiply right here in Nebraska if the
people will continue to respect the
game laws generally rs they have in
recent years. This year there is more
game than ever, and we propose to
make things unusually interesting TO
the pot hun ers this season The
large supply of game naturally will
attract n number of the rowing hunters
to this state, and high prices for game
in the cities will offer extra induce
ments to "home talent poacbers.
This does not signify that any great
amount of poaching will be done, but
IL does signify that upholders of the
law will have to be active all over the
state"
Mr.. Carter has notified the sheriff of
every county that the law makes it
mandatory for him to prosecute
poachers and warns the officers that
any neglect of duty will be punished
i'm case il comes to the ear of the
warden. BY this means Warden Cart
er hopes to add three new officers to
his force in each county, as there is an
average of two deputy sherifis TO the
county who, like their principals, IA e
bound to enforce the game laws.
