TO PAY DOUBLE INCOME TAX
Those .Vho Should Have Paid and
Did Not Make Returns Viii
BE Sorry

Milwaukee.--Peo who should
have paid an income tax last year
and avoided doing so by not max
ing return will have to pay double
the amount.
Last year being the first during
which the income tax law was in
force, several hundred people who
should have paid taxes managed to
evade them" said Income Tax AS
SCISSOR Carroll Atwood. Some re-
ceived report blanks and instructions
but failed to make returns, and some
through oversight did not receive
them. The people in the latter class
are not better off than those in the
former, however, as every one who
ought to pay q tax must make a re
turn, whether he receives a report
blank. and instructions or not.
THE law provides that where a
person who ought to pay does not
do so he must pay double the
amount. This will probably be the
only punishment inflicted, however,
as | believe that there was no in
tention to defraud, at least in a great
many cases. I wish to call the at
tention of those who ought to pay
income taxes to the loss which will
be sustained by not making return,
whether they receive blanks or not

THROW OUT RECALL PETITION
Movement 10 Gust GAINESVILLE City Of
ficiais Receives Set Backgrounds
Held to Be Insufficient.

Janesville.-The petition for the
recall calling for an election to deter
mine whether Mayor j. A. Fathers
and Commissioners r. M. Cummings
End c. A. Miltimore shall be recalled
from Office has been certified by City
Clerk Hammerlund as being INSULT
cient and not in accord with the pro-
visions of the commission govern
ment.
The effect of this eertification is to
throw cut the petition and make ne
cessary the circulation of new petit
tion if a recall election is to be held.
The grounds upon which the petit
ton is held to be insufficient is that
1t does not contain a sufficient gen.
eral statement of the grounds upon
which the removal of the commission
officers is demanded and that the
election of three city officials is
called for. Another ground is that
the names of 150 of the signers were
not qualified electors of the city of
GAINESVILLE, as compared with the poll
lists at the last city election The pc
titions were signed by about 700
names and $50 were needed to secure
the holding of a special election on
the recall.

MAY START LAND
BUREAU IN STATE
Legislative Bill Drafted 0utIin-
ing New Scheme.
WOULD HELP IMMIGRATION
Plan Viii Be Considered by Meeting
of Wisconsin Real Estate Men at
Green Bay-Measure Stands for
Honest Methods by Dealers.

Milwaukee-Th wisconsin As
sociation of Real Estate Brokers at
its meeting in Green Bay, January 81
and %, will consider preliminary
draft of bill by which it is proposed
to establish a state land bureau with
powers much more extensive than
those at present appertaining to the
state immigration commission.
The bill provides, in effect, that the
state of Wisconsin go into the land
and real estate business for the pur-
pose of encouraging immigration into
the now unsettled portions of the
state. The bureau through which
this feature of the states activities
will be handled is TO consist of three
commissioners appointed by the gov
ernor, and will be designated as the
Wisconsin Land Settlement bureau.
The bureau will compile list of
lands for sale by it, and by owners or
agents, who by affiliating with the
bureau and paying nominal fee will
become "bonded sellers"
Provision is made for the adver-
Using of these lands under the aus
pices of the bureau in bulletins and
standard publications, and for nego-
tiations, in behalf of sellers, with
railroads, public utility companies,
state and federal officers, societies
purposing agricultural development
and employment agencies.
The bureau is given power to inves-
tigate cases of reported fraud on the
part of dealers and agents where set
tiers are concerned and to take Grim
inal action if necessary. The right
OF any person listed as bonded land
seller will be revoked upon his con-
viction in an action of this nature, or
if the bureau is satisfied that he is
not living up to the pro- sions and
the intent of the law.
1t is also designed that the COM
mission shall act as board of arbi-
tratiOn in disputes arising over land
negotiations if these are not serious
enough to warrant a trial in the
courts.

INCREASE is EIGHT MILLION
Public Service Light, Heat and Power
Companies Values Raised by
State Tax Commissioner.

Madison. Wisconsin street rail
ways and light, heat and power COM
panies have increased $8,140,0O0 fol-
taxation purposes during the past
year, according to the preliminary
assessment made by the state taz
commission, the present valuation be-
ing fixed at $55,505, 900 as compared
with S47,365, 900 year ago.
The largest increase is that of the
Chippewa Valley Railway, Light &
Power company, which now is as,
sessed at S2,30O,O00 as against
$1,6OO,0O0 for 1912.
The amount of taxes levied a year
ago was $525, 1881, the rate be-
ing .O11O86S4064. The rate for the
present assessment will probably be
slightly less than for 1912. although
the revenue derived fill be larger.

figures credit Wisconsin with a pro-
duction of 14s,9O6,91O pounds of
cheese, against los, 584,947 for New
York and only 320,532,181 for the
entire United States. In 1899 New
York held first rank with a produc-
ton of 130.010.584 pounds, against
79,284,29S for Wisconsin and pro-.
duction of 29S,344,642 pounds for
the nation. In neither year did any
state outside of New York produce
one-eleventh as much cheese as did
the state of Wisconsin.
New York's enormous metropolitan
population, demanding enormous
sales of milk and cream, at far high
er prices than the Wisconsin farmer
can command, kept New York easily
in first place for the total value of
her dairy products.
