road each alternate section of land
along the line within l0-mile zone
along the line. A supplemental act
in 1864 doubled this subsidy and
the railroad company claimed that
the width Of the right of way was
also doubled or increased to 400 feet.
Mr.. Osterman, in explanation
says: "The company sold the, lands
to which it held title, making the
right of way boundry 100 feet dis
tant from the main line track. On
the government land II set the
boundry back 200 feet on either
side. We want the passage Of a
law which will define the right-of-
way so as to make it uniform all
along the line, and make it 100 feet
ION. each side of the track as il
passes through the entire state"
From now on ali of the senate
and house committees will bebusy
comforting on the bills referred 10
their respective committees. Some
very interesting sessions will be
held. The time Of introduction of
bills IN the senate and house is
limited to the FIRST 20 days after
THE Organization Of both bodies and
nearly half that time has transpired.
The passage Of bills will soon take
place and the real legislative grind

preparation made to the attorney
generals Office to cover irrigation
litigation had been exhausted.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. l8.-One Of
the newly elected members of the
house has provided a seat at his side
in the chamber for his better half
and she has sat at every session SO
far. The member has distinguished
himself by moving to adjodrn five
times in one morning.
The presence of the extra "mem-
Der" in the house has been comment
ed upon and one of the legislators
said it reminded him of a story.
"A neighbor of mine" he said, "a
young farmer, with a large family,
had been nominated and elected to
the office of justice of the peace
from his precinct without his knowl-
edge.
"After the election he was noti-
fled of the results and he went home
rather elated.
Supper was ready when he ar
rived and the family were ali seated
when he entered the dining room
and blurted out, I've been elected
squirrel
"His- little son, Delbert, called out:
Say, paw, does that make US squires,
too?
Shut your mouth, Delbert," ex-
claimed his mother, "there's nobody
squires in this family except your
paw and mel"
Chief clerk of the house, Will F.
Hitchcock, is determined to make a
record for economy and efficiency
in his department that will prove
the truth and consistency of the re-
publican legislature to transact its
business with the smallest possible
cost to the people. So far he has
been successful in keeping these
costs below those of other legisla-
tive sessions where a large volume
of business has come in on the
opening days.
The grand total Of his disburse-
ments shown in his report to the
employees committee shows twenty
two employees, most of them temp
orary, who received $476.S0 for reg
llar time and S144 for overtime,
making 2 total expenditure Of $6l0-
so. A total of ITO bills were at

WARNING AGAINST FAKE
INCOME TAX EXPERTS
GOVERNMENT WILL GIVE ALL
NECESSARY ASSISTANCE
AND INFORMATION.

A warning against fake experts
on income tax has been sounded by
the internal revenue bureau in a
statement received by Collector w. c.
Whaley, of Helena, from Commission
err Daniel c. Roper.
Commissioners Letter.
Business houses and individual
taxpayers are being canvassed this
year by numerous so-called income
tax experts who offer to use their
magic wands of income tax wisdom
to relieve the busy taxpayer from all
worries about his tax responsibilities.
Il desire to make public announce
nent, for the information of taxpay-
ers, that an investigation Of the quail
ifications of many Of these experts
will disclose the fact that very few of
them have had the training and ex-
perience that would place them any
where near the expert class.
Some of them were formerly tenn
porary employees of the government
who are attempting to capitalize this
fact regardless of their personal
knowledge of the revenue laws and
regulations. Others are soliciting cli-
ents on the strength of diplomas as
income tax experts obtained after
taking long distance courses by means
of printed instructions of doubtful
value.
Help From Bureau.
Taxpayers should not allow them
selves to be imposed upon by strang-
ers who claim to be income tax ex-
perts. They should discriminate
carefully between really helpful, au-
thoritative advice in tax matters, and
the irresponsible brand peddled under
glittering pretenses.
"The bureau is arranging to furnish
for the benefit of income tax payers IN
every city and town in the country, a
free advisory service by trained COL
lectors, agents, inspectors and dep
uties At the offices of collectors and
their deputies. and at other central
points. free information and advice
