.STATETAX ON CORPORATIONS
September l the Date in Which it Be.
comes Delinquent.
ONLY oNE-THIRD HAVE YET PAID
Governor WIN Have Proceedings
started 60 Gust the Rock Island
Company M soon as He GETS
Done with DOnRhue.
lFrom a staff Correspondentl

LINCOLN, Aug. i6.-(specisl) .-Though a
penalty is levied September l against every
corporation doing business in Nebraska
which has not paid its occupation tax. only
200 out Of 5000 have so far, met the re-
quirements of the law. After September
i every corporation which fails to pay the
tax will be assessed a penalty of $40.
November 30, IL the tax has not been paid,
the corporation becomes defunct and IL 1t
does business in Nebraska legally it will be
required to refile its articles of incorpora-
ton.
The law was enacted by the late legis-
lature and approximately 1000 corporations
failed to pay the tax and thereby for
feited their charters. Among the large cor
porations which the governor through "A
proclamation. declared without legal
authority to do business in the state was
the Rock Island railroad. This company
overlooked or failed to pay its tax and
several months after it had become de-
funct an agent of the company came to
the state house to look up the case He was
informed that the only way, so far thought
out for the railroad to get right, was to
refile its articles OF Incorporation. This
would cost in the neighborhood Of $S5, 900.
So far nothing has been done, but 1t is
possible the governor will order the at
torney general to proceed against the COM
pany when he gets through oustlng Chief
Donahue of the police department of
Omaha.
Telephone COmpany's Answer.
In answer to questions asked by Attor-
ney General Thompson, the Nebraska Tele-
phone company to day filed in the supreme
court mass of statistics and statements
regarding the operation Of the company In
this state These questions are result
Of the suit filed by the attorney general
at the request of parties interested in the
Lincoln Telephone company, to prevent the
Nebraska Telephone company from buying
controlling interest in Independent compan-
les. 3. Il"
One of the questions submitted was
whether the Nebraska Telephone company
would agree to connect with the Lincoln
company. In answer, Attorney Morsman
said the Nebraska company would connect
with the Lincoln company or any other
company that would bring it business, but
it doubted that the Lincoln company would
consent to connection, in as much as It
had signed a contract not to connect with
the Nebraska company for twenty-five
years.
The. statement filed by the Nebraska. com
pany covers the intention and. first use
of the telephone and its. development down
to the present, time. 81.

1 believe there Is q better public feeling
today with regard TO highways than has
ever been known before In, the state, and
il some OF the newspapers which are seek
ing every opportunity to find fault and
crIticise win put aside their prejudices and
jealousy and join In this movement, greater
good can be accomplished. These papers
contend that we SHOULD have stone or grav-
elled roads throughout the state. All Of
us would be pleased 20 have such roads II
ii were possible, but what we are seeking
TO do now 1t TO get the best possible results
without any increase or tax levy. The river
to-river road, the Poweshiek county roads
and many other roads in the state demon
strate the fact that we can have properly
graded and properly dragged roads without
any increase Of taxes and with united eff
fort such roads may be extended all over
the entire state.
No one is so unreasonable as to argue
that there will not be times of the year
when our roads will be bad, but what We
want TO do is TO reduce the period OF bad
roads 20 a minimum In this state and we
believe that with properly graded and prop
erly dragged roads, they can be made good
at least nine or ten months In the year.
Beyond question, there has been more
dragging and better road work done during
the last year than ever before. and II Is
largely due 10 the agitation and interest
that has been taken In road making. It
has been said that August Is not the right
time 20 inspect roads. II Is no more diff
cult to determine whether a road is prop
eriy graded in August than at any other
time.

CARE or THE FLOORS
VARIOUS SUBSTANCES MAY BE
USED FOR POLISHING THEM.
Water Should Be Employed sparinsly,
AS II viii Cause the Wood to
Expand-oli and Wax Con-
sldered the Best.

II one has been so fortunate as to
secure hardwood floor, the intelligent
care of It becomes very important
matter and one which Is not particu'
larly difficult II little thought and
attention are given to the subject.
Various materials are employed for
this purpose, but the processes are all
similar, namely. that Of rubbing tho
surface with some sort OF an oil or
wax. In general. II is safe rule new
er to apply water to the surface OF n
nice floor, at least not In sufficient
quantities to wet the fiber Of the wood
to any extent, because all wood, even
oak, is susceptible TO moisture and to
the extent TO which the iibers expand
they will dry afterwards and gradu-
ally cracks will appear IN the boards.
If something has been spilled on the
floor so that It is absolutely necessary
to wash II, this should be done with a
cloth wrung out of water. For the
most part, however, oil and wax In
some form are the proper cleaning
and polishing mediums. II is said that
equal parts OF sweet oil, turpentine
and vinegar, well mixed and wen rub
bed into the floor with cotton or wool
en- rags, Is highly successful method
OF treating a polished oak floor The
acid in the vinegar cuts the dirt and
CRIME that works into It from shoes,
the sweet oil gives a luster and the
turpentine dries IT, There are any
number Of articles on the market that
are advertised for this purpose. and
some OF them are very effective. In
testing any new brand Of wax or other
application, It is well to try It first Of
all on a small portion Of the floor in
some inconspicuous part of the room.
a weighted brush is great advan-
tage, though more or less expensive
A piece Of plank covered with Brus-
sells carpet is not n bad substitute
The above.named mixture does not
need to be applied TO the floor oftener
than once month, and about once n
be we'll rubbed into the floor.
The application of varnish TO hard
wood floor Is a modern method Of An
ishing. The old.time method being
that of rubbing them witch wax. and
a very beautiful surface may be thus
produced, provided the floor has first
had n thorough coating with n paste
filler which fills up every pore and
crack and makes perfectly smooth
surface.

6ED CROSS SEAL IN HISTORY
First Used During the American Civil
War--Now an Aid In Fight
ing tuberculosis.

Red Cross Christmas seals date
back in their origin to charity
stamps" first used for the soldiers
relief funds in Boston in 1862. during
the Civil war. After the war. this
method of raising money was discon-
tinued In this country for a genera.
ton. although 1t found vogue in Por
tugal. Switzerland, Australia. Franco,
Spain, Denmark, Norway. Russia.
Sweden and other European coun.
tries. There are now several hun.
dred different types OF charity stamps
used in all parts of the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the antituberculosis
crusade in Norway and Sweden In
1904. After being used In these coun-
tries for three years, as n direct ro-
suit OF the interest of Jacob Riis in
this movement, the Delaware Anti.
Tuberculosis association, headed by
Miss Emily p Bissell, and the Red
Cross society OF Delaware combined
in Issuing q tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly $4,000 was realized. and the
next year. in 1908, the American Red
Cross was induced to issue a national
Red Cross tuberculosis stamp. From
this sale, $4,000 was realized, that
amount being almost doubled in 1909.
This year, for the first time, the sale
Ia organized on comprehensive
basis. taking In all parts OF the
United States. A million for tuber-
culosis work Is confidently expected.
