NEWSPAPER Bill
TOKILL OFF 200.

Bismarck, Feb. 25.-Wells Brin-
toms scheme for concentrating into
so-called league newspapers legal
publications Of all descriptions came
to a head today when the senate COM
mittee recommended for passage the
group Of newspaper publication bills.
An amendment approved in caucus
last night restores the original pro-
position for designation Of these
county official papers for the period
intervening between time the laws
would become effective, until the next
general election is held, appointment
to be made by the state printing
commission.
The personnel Of the commission
would be the commissioner of argri-
culture, secretary Of state and pub
lie land commissioner the latter Of
fcer being appointive.
The league leaders who are at
tempting to put over this scheme
have frankly admitted to legislators
that it will put about 200 North Da-
kota newspapers out Of business.
For the sake Of policy, the original
proposition Of having newspapers
designated for the period until next
election was omitted when the bills
were first introduced but with the
big program measures out Of the
way, ,Brinton has seen fit to have
appointive features restored.

ElVUE COLLECTOR

Get ready for the income tax man.
He will arrive in Valley City Feb. 81,
where he can be consulted free Of
charge. He will remain in town until
the close Of business on March 1.
Bring in your figures, your prob
lens, your doubts, and your ques-
tions," is his invitation contained in
the announcement Of his coming visit.
Collector Of Internal Revenue,
James Coffey, is sending one Of his
deputies, solely to help people in this
vicinity to determine their individual
liability and to comply with the laws
requirements as to 1918 income.
This free advisory service" writes
Collector James Coffey, lis planned
for those who are required for the
first time to consider their liability
and to make sworn returns.
"Many thousands who were not af-
fected by the prior federal laws tax
ing incomes must this year file re-
turns. Here are the requirements:
Every unmarried person who had
net income Of 1000 or over during
1918; and every married person who,

s1This tax is a war burden; it is q
part Of the price Of victory, the great
est victory that the world has known.

every facility Of my office to aid them
to determine their individual liabil-
ity." Respectfully,

The editor wants to call attention to
the various pastors of the city to the
fact that every Saturday morning
they make it a point to flood the Of
flee with church notices which take
up greater part Of the forenoon
setting them up and thus cuts as out
of other matter that we would rather
publish. Some Of these notices are
sent in as late as 2 p. M, and we
have to leave them out when this
happens. This comes under the head
Of free advertising and the. Times
Record is glad to give it to them, but
we want some consideration in re-
turn. We are paying a linotype OPP
orator for putting in his time setting
these notices up for nothing and
they are as welcome as the birds in
May to the time and space if they
will only give us little consideration.
We have practically six hours to get
out the daily paper and one operator
to do all the work. If the pastors of
the churches will get these notices in
on Friday night or not later than $3.50
Saturday morning we can handle the
matter much better and cut out a
lot Of details that are not necessary.
Your time is no more valuable than
ours. So try this scheme and we shall
get along smoother and the blue PEN
ell will not be necessary. If you don't
do this we shall have to charge you
at the regular advertising rates. It
is up to you, now.

NORMAL 0UTPLAYS
THE WAHPETONS

Monday night the Normal school
basket ball team played winning
game against considerable odds on
the Wahpeton Science School floor
and came home Tuesday morning
proudly wearing the scalps Of big
Chief and his braves, which hung
conspicuously from the belts Of the
". C. N. tossers. The score was 81
to II in favor of our home boys. At
the end of the first half the score
stood 10 to with v. G. N. in the lead.
Throughout the entire game the
Wahpetons trailed in the scoring, the
gap becoming wider as time went on.
The playing was very rough at times,
the referee not being close enough.
perhaps, in his detection OF forbidden
tactics. The assistance Of good UNI
pire would have helped some in a case
like this where one or two players OF
the opposing team were inclined to-
ward unnecessary roughness. Aside
from these slight criticisms the game
was featured by fine team work on the
part of the v. G. N. players. In this
respect the Wahpeton five could not
overcome it successfully, their own
team work being fitful and patchy in
comparison.
The V. C. N. boys were surer than
the opponents in shooting goals. Sad
and Personals each Gagged five goals.

one when ''his man" wasn't looking.
