One Of the most important meas
ures to receive his early attention
was House Bill No. 646, introduced
by Mr.. Farris, of Duyal, regulating
the assessment Of railroad and tele-
graph properties. When it reached
the Senate, Senator Flournoy at once
pronounced It Gas we'll as the exist
Ing statute) unconstitutional because
It devolyed the duty Of assessment
upon the Comptroller, and other
state officers, and was therefore VIC
latiye of the Constitution, which for
bids any person to hold more than
one office: and he offered an amend
ment in the nature of substitute
providing for a State Board of As
SCISSORS, to be composed OF five citi-
Gems, to value for taxation all railroad
and telegraph property; which was
adopted with but one dissenting vote,
and the bill passed, but was vetoed
by the Governor. An effort was made
to pass 1t again, Notwithstanding the

Monday Afternoon Session.

The old council held a brief
session On Monday afternoon, at
which ordinances 214, 215, 216
were passed as published in
Mondays Tribune. 1t Will be
noted THAT ordinance 214 repeats
the old occupation tax ordinance,
relieving most businesses from
that tax. This ordinance places az
occupation tax OF 5000 on saloons
and will take $2,4C0 out of the
school fund. The old ordinances
made the saloon license $1,000
and the occupation tax 5000.
The new ordinance divides the
$1,000 equally between the City
and the school fund. Only ten
lines of business are taxed under
the present occupation ordinance
Billiard halls, bowling alleys, sa-
electric companies, gas
compapnies, telephone companies,
wholesale liquor dealers, transpor
tation companies, express com-
panies and telegraph companies.

TAXPAYERS Take Notice.

We very respectfully call your
attention to the fact that there
Will appear Cn the primary ballot
at the election to be held April
10Th, 1912, several proposals for
amendments to the constitution
of the state Of Nebraska.
We wish particularly to call
your attention to the fourth
amendment which is of unusual
Importance to the taxpayer as
it contemplates the reduction of
the election expense One-half by
holding elections but Once in
two years.
Such a change would cause the
elections to more nearly conform
to the tenure OF the elective of
fices than the present plan, as
nearly all officers are now elect
ed for two or more Years.
Respectfully yours,
CHAS. K. BUTCHER, Co. Clerk.

Norris Bill Finds Favor.
Washington. April 9. - &

Washington, April 9. - (Spe-
oial.) - The Judiciary committee
agreed today to report favorably
the Norris bill to limit the width
of the Union Pacific right of
way, and Judge Norris was Sc
lected to draw the report. Sem
opposition to the passage off the
bil has developed in the com
mittee, but the majority voted
for it. Mr.. Norris said that he
would make a somewhat exhaus-
tive report dealing with the le-
gal phases of the question, and
that as it would require gcme
study 1T would be perhaps a week
or more before he could complete
it. The hiM as reported Will in.
clude the amendment necessary t.
cover the n.tuation in Colorado.
In this connection Mr.. Norris
ttc't he did net intend to
SO to- Nebraska before the pri-
mary. He referred to requests
he had had from the btate' that
he go r5hera,but said he felt inn
to remain in Washington
because of the demands made up
on lis attention to public bust
ness.

Editor: Regarding the amount
OF water IN the Frenchman avail
able fer storage purposes, L ann
In receipt of a letter from the
first assistant secretary of the An
terror, Washington, D.. c., which
Was forwarded to me by Senator
Brown, In which the secretary
makes the following statement:
"The most complete year of
record extends from November
LIST, 1894, to October 81, 1895, the
months of january and Febru-
airy T missing. Assuming that
the discharge for these months
equaled the average monthly flow
for the remainder of the year,
and assuming further, that the r.
rigatiOm season extends from APP
ril to September, inclusive, there
is left available for storage the
following:

November-acre feet . . 1856

1t Will be noted that the gov
eminent records were taken dur
ing two of the dryest years, Last
season excepted, or record, and
only contempiatc5 gtCn.ng water
six months. Whereas IN seasons
Ike the present one there would
be at Least a month or two to
add storage water, and some sea-
sons there would be 9 or 10
months in which to store water
for the dry years.
| wish only to add that if the
people of Red Willow county ex-
pect to ever utilize amy of the
water of the Frenchman river
for irrigation they must get 1T
now. If they do net act prompt
ly and energetically the oppor-
will have passed from
them never tc return, as the wat
er Will be used in other terri
tory that will be of no benefit
to Red Willow county.
To be sure if the people here
