M'KENZIE NAN HAS
! $751;. A new INVENTION

Bismarck. N. D.. Feb. 28.-W. L.
Watson came to Bismarck yesterday
from Mckenzie by auto and says the
roads are just as good as at any time
during the year. He had one of his
inventions attached to Ford car,
which looked like a good Improvement
to lot of Ford owners, who see in it
foot peddle attachment for the hand
brake lever. BY simply, showing the
foot lever forward with the left: foot 1t
throws the car out Of gear and sets
the emergency brake, without it, being
necessary to take the hands from the
steering wheel. Mr.. Watson, says.he is
going east in a few days to arrange
to have his invention manufactured.
/ While he is east he will also secure
castings for the rock digger he is man
ufacturing at Mckenzie and which he
expects to have on the market by
April 1.
He is of the opinion that the rock
digger will solve the problem Of clear
ing land of rocks. While testing this
machine yesterday he found that it
took but thirty five pound pull with
a spring scale to lift a 1,400-foot rock,
and after being swung from the hind
axle of a wagon it was easy to move
the rock any place.

RUSH TO
PAY TAX
ON INCOME

New York, Feb. 2S.-The busiest
place ON Manhattan island today is the
income tax bureau on the third floor of
the United States customs house,
Hundreds of New Workers. stood in line
for hours waiting to file their reports.
the time limit for which, under an ex-
tension, is 6 p. m. Monday. Collector
Anderson said that before noon 10000
reports had been received. 1t is ex-
pected there Will be 5000 or 10000
more before the close Of the offices to-
night. Estimates indicate that ap-
proXimately $4,000 reports have been
Nled in New York citys four districts,
and that the total number will exceed
100000, or nearly one-fourth Of what
had been estimated as the total num-
Der Of reports in all the sixty-three
districts throughout the country. .
The rush to file reports began an
soon as the Office opened for business.
In an hour after the opening, a line
formed through the corridors outside
the Offices The mixed line consisted
of financiers, stock brokers, Office boys,
Stenographers, manufacturers and a.
varied assortment of merchants. Many
of them were acting for employers,
Few long faces were seen. Everyone
seemed rather to enjoy the novelty OF
meeting the new tax.
Persons having a taxable income
and falling to report by the close of
business Monday will be fined $40 to
$1,000. Government Investigators are
already busy making inquiries con-
cernirg prospective delinquents. A
large force Of additional clerks will be
required to handle tho windun of the
filings Monday. AS yet there is no
possible way to make an accurate
tabulation or even an estimate of tho
amount Of money represented in the
reports.
