AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Fiscal Year Closes with Nice Balance in
Hands Of Treasurer.

sum of Money.

Reports for the fiscal year ending July
81 are coming in and judging from the
ngures the municipality will have money
TO burn during the present fiscal year. In

from the last fiscal year of S5l, $40 The

from this sum the 10 per cent reserve of

dition TO this revenue comes the royalties
licenses, fines, etc, which last year
amounted to $ll,9O3. This will make total
of S2l2,549 which the mayor and council
has to spend for municipal purposes during
the present fiscal year, which expires at
the end OF July next.
While this looks like a very large sum
for maintaining a government over about
$4,000 people, the city authorities assert
that the sum is none too large, and that
even with economy there will not be a
large balance left
The fire and police departments cost
about $4,000 each year. Street lighting and
the water hydrant rentals take 81, 800 each

PUTS INHERITANCE TAX IN ROAD FUND
Gus Harte Appears Not to Have Been
ObIIviOus to Fact that An
other County Job IL
in sight,

In connection with the renewed agitation
for the collection of the state inheritance
tax from estates in Douglas county, it has
been discovered that by the provisions OF
House Roll No. 90, introduced by Mr.. Cas-
sell OF Otoe county, this county will be in
line to have a system of permanent road
ways out in the country at no distant date
That is, OF course, providing the tax can
be collected.
Casselrs law provides that the county
treasurer of each county shall keep all
taxes collected from estates under the In
heritance tax law in separate fund, to be
at the disposal OF the Board Of County
Commissioners. II further provides that
this money can be expended only on perma
nent roadways outside the limits OF incor-
pOrated cities and villages. They may come
up 10 the limits Of said cities or villages,
however.
In the case OF paved roads the paving
shall be not less than nine or more than
twelve feet in width. The total width is to
be not greater than twenty-five feet. and
alongside the paved part there shall be a
| dirt road.
This law does not apply to estates pro-
bated prior 10 JuiS l OF this year. but
under it the F. W Nash estate and some
others would be liable. II a few such es-
/ tates as that left by Mr.. Nash should be
! levied on in the course OF few years the
| county commissioners would ind at their
| command for permanent road purposes a
! fund that would mount away up into the
thousands. One lawyer who was discussing
] the matter cited the estate OF the late
! Frank Murphy, which he said would have
| been liable 70 this permanent road fund for
between $4,000 and $4,000.

Wants Congress to Investigate.

Mr.. Palmer, the public printer at
Washington, who was summarily re-.
moved from office ON Saturday by
President Roosevelt, announces that
he proposes to have his administration
of the printing office investigated by
congress, and he evidently looks for q
vindicatiOn at the hands of that body.
This he will hardly be able to obtain.
The Keep commission makes it very
clear that the reports on which he
based his order for seventy.two LanS.
ton typesetting machines in preference
to the Mergenthaler machines were
"cooked" by some of Mr.. Palmer's
subordinate. 1t also appears that he
informed the Mergenthaler company
that he was doing nothing about the
matter at the very time when he had
decided to buy the LanSt0n machines
and was making the contract for them.
The Mergenthaler company is censured
for having charged that the contract
with the Lanston company was cor
rupt one. If it was not corrupt it
surely reveals clear case of "pull. "
The people of the United States could
probably save over 1000 a year by
going out of the printing business al
together.

Letter to Paul W. Daniels.
Welsh, Louisiana

Dear Sir: The easiest business in
this world is the dry-goods; the reason
is: your customers want your stuff as
much as you want to sell it: they come
in: you show it and sell it. That's
the whole business, except you buying
the goods.
Devoe comes next. 1t saves money,
and people like money. They like
somebody else's more than their own;
they like to make it more than to save
it: they like to keep it perhaps as we'll
as to make it.
Buildings run down fast, without
paint; poor paint is the same. Deyoe
is the means of stopping that leak; a
big one. All we've got to do, to sell
Devoe, is to show that man saves
money by using it.
E. D. Jewell, Cory, Pa, painted his
house 5 years ago with a mixed paint;

Devoe: 10 gallons. Saved S15 to $40.
Yours truly
