MACHINES NOT TO BE USED
Bancroft Rules Device Out for the
Presidential and the Refer
endum Ballot.

Madison.-'I am therefore OF the
opinion that the provisions of chap
ter 6S3, with reference to the form
and manner of voting the referen-
dun ballot and the presidential ball
lot is general in its application and
that it must be specific ally complied
with. 1t follows that the referendum
and the presidential ballot prescribed
by chapter 633, laws of 1911, can
not be voted upon the voting ma
chine" Such is the opinion of Atty
Gen. Bancroft, given t. day to j. Ell
mer Lehr of Milwaukee.
The attorney general points out
that it is obvious that the many re-
quirements prescribed for the casting
of these ballots cannot be carried out
on the voting machine. 1t is evident
that the legislature intended to sep
arate the presidential ticket from the
state. congressional and county tick
cts, thereby requiring the voter to
perform two distinct physical acts in
voting the two separate ballots.

REMIT 100000
IN TAXES THIS YEAR
Frear and Dahl Meet as State
Remission Board.
INCLUDE STATE UNIVERSITY
Amount Fixed for 1912 Exceeds
That of Previous Year by More
Thae I.oCo.ooo-WH be PAyed
Upon Its Except.

MISUNDERSTANDING of State
Frear and State Treasurer Dahl met
at the capitol as a state board for the
remission of taxes for the ensuing
year and decided to remit over S2,-
100000 in taxes. In 1911 the board
RENTED tax Of $4,000 for state
capitol purposes and S490,2S nor
NAL school tax At its meeting the
board decided to remit the $3.50, zoo
for the state capitol and approxi-
mately 100000 for normal schools
and in addition thereto the state uni
versity tax which is estimated to
reach approximately S1,100,000,
making a total remission of over 3d.
100000 for 1912, or over 100000
more than was RENTED in 1911.
The action taken means that no
state tax will be levied except for
educational purposes and the state
highway tax. In other words, all
taxes levied this year win be prompt
ly returned by the state to the locali-
ties
