Made in Senate

Washington. Jan. 25.-For the first
time since the debate in the senate
in the case of Senator William Lori
mer of Illinois began. mention today
was made of the reported interest of
the president in unscating of that
senator because of the charges of
was by Senator Payntcr of Kentucky,
who was Il member of the sub-com-
mittcc which investigated the charges
and of the full committee on priv
ileges and elections which brought in
the report cxoncrating the Illinois

Payntcr made Senators Bcvcridge
and Owen targets of Il sarcastic par

Lorimcr to his scat. Before speaking
of the testimony in the case Senator
Payntcr said that he did not appear

under the present laws.
The gross earning tax for railroads
was also approved by the speaker
Reforms in Tax Legislation and AS
sessments" was the subject on which
Mr.. Norton made these points.
In an addres OIL Uniform Ac-
counts" liver A. Acker of the state
legislative reference bureau gave
strong endorsement to the Ohio plan,
now in vogue in that state and in
Indiana and Washington. with plan
much similar being worked out in
Massachusetts and Wyoming.
Under the present system of ac-
counting in North Dakota, the public
business is in chaotic condition. 1t
is impossible 10 compile anything in
the way OF statistics bearing upon
sociological or economical conditions
because OF the great difference exist
ing in the severa! counties in the sys-
TENS of accounting. Items OF one
nature are not to be found under a
like head in various counties, but
are found under varied departments.
and for that reason the figures are
worthless so far as opportunity for
comparison is concerned.
Mr. Acker declares hat the present
condition of public accounts in North
Dakota is such as to demand legisla-
tive action and in his belief, the pass
age OF the Ohio law. or one patterned
very closely after it, is advisable.
Today's session was the opening
one of Il two-day meeting of the state
tax organization. Tomorrows pro-
gram includes addresses by President
F. l.. McVey of the state university

ing care of patients at the state in
stitutc for feeble minded at Grafton
is provided in another bill fathered
by Mr. Frame. The present MAIN
tainance rate is 500 a year. but un-
der the newly proposed measure it
would be SIS a month or $3.50 year.
The purpose of this bill, which is
similar to the one introduced affect
ing the asylum for the insane, is to
place the institution on basis where
maintainance appropriation bills will
no longer be necessary in the legisla-
tive assembly.
Unable to Agree.
Legislative delegations from the
Fifth. judicial district have been un-
able to reach any agreement yet as
to the plan of division. The trouble
lies in the inability of the Barnes
and Stutsman county delegations to
join hands as Valley City and James,
town are both desirous of becoming
chambers for the respective districts
for all time to come. There are eight
So.nties in the district as it is
psc1ef,.tiy formed and it is hoped to
haVe> G;,Yision that will give both
districfs>~ ut. an equal population.
To accomlnssh, such a division is a
task of no mean proportions
Higher Standard Fixed.
The I-add idea in the raising OF the
educational requirements OF appli-
cants for admission to the state as
registered pharmacists is included in
bill that has been introduce ed in the
senate. Under the provisions of the
proposed measure cand dates for
pharmaceutical honors must meet up
with a much higher educational re-
quirement here after than before, al
though sufficient time is allowed for
those now studying to get in under
the present standard of requirements.
Senator Steele of Renvillc intro
duced a bill this afternoon providing
for the creation of state board OF

N0RT0NS VIEW
OF TAXATION
Would Tax Bonds and Mort
cages at Fraction of Their
Face Value
III. u. pAUl.SON.,

Bismarck, ~ d.. Jan. 2I.-Import-
ant changes in the taxation laws of
the state were recommended by Sec
retary of State p. ID. Norton in an
address delivered before the North
Dakota Tax association in this city
today. Repeal of the present prOvis-
ion of the constitution requiring that
all property be taxed at its full money
value is one OF the changes that MI.
Norton recommended. he declaring
that the taxation plan now in vogue
in North Dakota was far behind the
times and not in accord with modern
day IDEAS.
Until such a time as the present
constitutional provision can be re-
pealcd. Mr. Norton recommends that
Il county assessor be appointed in
lieu of the district assessor. more uni
form results being achieved in that
manner
AS Il substitute for tho present mode
OF taxation Mr.. Norton would establish
a system that would allow for taxa
tiOn on /, basis that would react to the
best benefit. Under the present laws
bonds and mortgages are not brought
out for taxation. but under a plan
that would allow the taxation of such
bonds and mortgages at a fraction
OF the value more of that kind of
taxation would result. The same
holds true OF cash on deposit. and in
that particular the present system is
an absolute failure.
Mr.. Norton would also make tax
laws in such a manner that unim-
proved property would be taxed high
er than it is at present. thus doing
away with the tax penalty that is at
tachci to the mikinc Of improvements
