Cupid's Agent Has
His Nose Pulled
by an Applicant

Fred o. Williams, a blacksmith OF
Usage, Ia, as the result of a previous
interview with an April fool joker, Sc
verely pulled Herbert L. Stubendorf's
nose as the marriage license clerk was
attempting to secure information to be
recorded in his books as required by law.
1t all proved afterward TO have been a
mistake and the result of advice given
Williams that the license clerk might try
to be funny on April FOOLS day ana that
he should stand for no nonsense, Will
liams ultimately left. declaring he would
get a license in Council Bluffs.
Williams showed a little impotence as
nc answered detailed questions concerning

who were the young woman's par
ents7"
Williams gave the information.
How old is she?"
"Twenty-three," he said, looking al

A Passing Glance at MI.
zimman'S Tax
Record

1t is interesting TO peruse the public
records relating to Mr.. Humans activ-
tiles on tax matters. He has consist
entity and insistently stood for an equit-
able tax that the small home owner may
not be unjustly burdened and that the
big interests should stand their Just
share This has meant a bold stand at
times, but Mr.. Zimrnan feels that the end
justified the means and that he can
stand upon his tax record with feeling
of Just pride.
II will be remembered that he took the
lead in the famous Board of Equalization
meeting when the Real Estate exchange
sought 70 equalize the taxes by requir-
ing the franchised corporations TO pay
their share of the taxes and thus re-
lieve the smaller taxpayers OF an unjust
burden
He went to the front when the ter
minal tax fight was brought up Ono of
his accomplishments in this connection
was the adoption by the republican state
convention of terminal tax plank which
eventually resulted in law which is
now in operation.
Mr.. Zimman got on the firing line again
in his advocacy of an occupation tax
to be assessed against the public serv-
ice corporations. He put his best effort
and thought into this fight and brought
thousands to his way of thinking. The
result has been that $4,000 of occupation
taxes have been paid into the city treas
ury. the present annual payment amount
ing to about $4,000. The corporations
fought Mr.. Zimman and his occupation
tax idea to the last ditch. but he did
not quit until the fight was won
He has stood and still stands for a.
low tax levy consistent with good mu-
, nicipal government. He believes that by
placing the taxation where 1t belongs
the levy may be reduced to q Just basis.
The occupation tax is a striking in
stance of this idea
Through the operation OF the terminal
tax law the occupation tax and other
tax reforms advocated and put through.
Mr. zimman has been instrumental in
enabling the city government to obtain
more money without taxing to the limit
the small home owner, the storekeeper
and others OF moderate means.
He has appeared on various occasions
before the Board Of Equalization and
urged increase in the taxation lof prop
erty OF the street railway company, tele-
phone company and the electric light
company.
