TO REPLACE TAX coLLEcroRs

Washington, March 23.-Par-
tial reorganization of their inves-
tigating force has been decided on
by Secretary McAdoo and Internal
Revenue Commissioners Osborne
in planning for.the 1915 income
tax collecting campaign. Twenty
Of the special agents appointed
last year have received sugges-
tons that they resign, the inten-
ton being to replace them with
trained accountants, peculiarly
fitted to handle the books of the
corporation subject to tax.
1t was explained at the Treas
ury Department last night that no
reflection rested upon the men
whom it was desired to displace
and it was to be expected that
many Of the members of the force
first assembled would not be adj
apted to the work or fully quail
fed to get the best results. A
number Of agents invited to re-
sign already have done so, but it
is said there have been some OBJ
jections to the Departments ac-
ton by members Of Congress who
recommended the appointments.
The move is in line with the, ex-
pressed determination of officials
ito see that the income tax is paid
by every individual and corpora
ton subject to it.

our FAIR BUILDING
BOOSTS the STATE

San Francisco. March 22.-The
North Dakota building at the PAN
ANA Pacific international e1pcs,-.
EtIon, was the second state build
Rg ,sto be completed on 1.-The.
grounds, and was the first state
building On the grounds to have
its exhibits in place ready for the
opening day. This fact has
brought great deal Of publicity
to North Dakota. The further fact
that North Dakota is the only corn
state in the union that has a corn
display in its building at the e1-
position is working wonder in the
matter of interesting people in
the state.
Another interesting feature of
the exposition at San Francisco is
the large number Of people from
North Dakota who are visiting the
exposition that had intended To-
eating somewhere on the coast,
but who are going back to good
old North Dakota with the deter
milatien Of spending their re-
naming days upon the rolling
prairies instead Of paying large
prices for inferior land. One man
in particular that could be cited,
came to the coast with the idea
+! Of buying land and making his
future home out here. After he
had Investigated conditions at ev-
cry angle, he went back to North
Dakota TO invest his money where
the land would bring a sure and
safe return for the investment.
Upwards Of thirty North Dakot-
ans are registering daily at the
North Dakota building. and after
tseeding it is expected that the
number will increase wonderfully.
| At the dedicatOry exercises of

Eafter seeding it is expected that
the number will increase wonder

tiles of the day.
