Tax shirI.ern. Tax sharks.

OMAHA, March 23-To the Editor Of The
Bee: have been requested to write a few
lines pertaining TO H. r. 81, the same be-
ing an amendment to the present so-called
scavenger law. A great deal has been said
about the tax sharks as regards this bill,
but up to the present time l have not heard
or seen in print anything about the tax
shirkers. Some OF the friends of this bill
classed all people who were fortunate or
unfortunate enough to buy any property un-
der this law as of one kind, tax sharks"
1t has occurred in a great many instances
that people who bought under this law were
not regular tax buyers, and as to the reg
ular tax buyer, permit me to ask the ques-
ton: II we did not have tax buyers of what
use is tax sale law? And again, you can
not expect these people to give their time
and money to the business Of making tax
shirhers pay up and then abuse them at
every turn on account OF their business
This bill. II. r. 81, IL adopted, will stop all
competition at the sale and spoil the effects
Of the law. 1t will also prevent the city
and county from getting the full amount OF
the taxes, which they have done in hun
dreds OF cases,
The seavenger law has collected thousands
OF dollars for the city Of Omaha and county
Of Douglas that would not be paid at this
time If we did not have this law and few
so-called tax sharks / do not think that
we ought TO say to the man who had not
paid his taxes for years, I'VE will make
special provisions for you and give you a
premium for not paying your taxes all these
years" If you do this. why not say, to
the prompt taxpayer, You are foolish"
Personally hope to see H. r. "a defeated
in the interest of the city Of Omaha and
county Of Douglas I am satisfied it will
destroy the effect at all future sales, and I
believe I am in a position to know, having
gone through this scavenger law sale In
this county from the beginning up to the
present time. ]. w. BARNETT.

BOY SHOOTS AT COMPANION
Bullet strikes shoulder and InnIcts
Painful Though Not Fatal
Wound.

IF I can't shoot the fish or the tree
I'll just shoot you" After delivering him
self of that remark John Krenzer, aged
Ia leveled his 22-ealiber rife at Calvin
Emmett, aged IA. yesterday afternoon and
fired. The bullet struck Emmett In the
right shoulder, INJECTING a painful. though
not serious wound. The boys were out to
Cut-On lake shooting with other boys,
and Krenzer saw dead nsh in the water
and said he was going TO take a shot at
1t, to which Emmett protested, as he
also later protested against Krenzer vast
ing HIS ammunition on a tree. 1t was
then that Calvin made the above remark
and fired. He was badly scared after he
found he had shot Emmett, and said he
didn't think the rifle was cooked There
had been no trouble between the boys and
all the circumstances point that the
shooting was not intentional.
Emmett lives with his parents at 26Ss
Seward street. He was taken to the Gen
eral hospital and attended by the house
surgeon and DR.. Harris who made an I'M
successful attempt to locate the bullet.
The doctors say that Emmett's chances for
recovery are good unless complications set
in. Krenzer lives at Twenty-frst and Paul
streets.
