1t was fully discussed by the Gov.
ernor at a joint meeting of the com.
mittee on ways and means Of the
house and senate and seemed to
meet with their favor.
The only opposition to the plan is
because of the adoption of the pro-
hibitioD amendment which will
mean a great reduction in revenue
from that source.
Governor Gardner's plan would be
a great thing because of the separa
tion of county and state revenue
and would forever settle the Ques
&ion of the valuation of property
for the purpose of taxation as coun.
ties would be able to make their
valuations what they desired.
The matter will be brought up
the latter part of this week and bills
submitted to the general assembly,

of Republican members was held to
try and hold all in line for Elmer,
but it is ssid that sixteen refused to

verses were all the rage in England.
Lloyd George said that one of kis
poems written from the front line
trenches, first published in the Lon

in England and by the government as
poster in the campaign, had more
influence in putting over the Conscrip-

speeches that were made. 1t Is hoped
he will recite the poem when he APP
pears here. Nor is this all; our own

may be of as great interest and USE

ranged that he will answer questions
at the conclusion of his lecture which
deals with the rebuilding of France
