or release of Kate Richards O'Hare,
whom was convicted of sedition in
the United. States district court Of
North Dakota and sentenced to a
term of Imprisonment for five years
in the federal prison at Jefferson City,
Mo. Her Offense was most glaring
violation Of law and of the spirit Of
our institutions The words she
spoke were brutal insult to our boys
in arms and a vile SANDER upon Amer
lean womanhood. She was given a
fair trial and had the benefit of an
appeal. Believing that her release be-

Americanism and treason, we the

today. "that Attorney General LANCER
is the choice Of the people for gov
crnor. Petitions calling for him to
speak are coming so fact that he can
not possibly fill them.
"The state federation Of the Lang
er for governor clubs is the result OF
spontaneous movement on the part
of the people to get him to run as
their candidate for governor. 1t has
caught like wildfire and clubs are be
ing formed all over the state. This is
true despite the fact that no political
bosses have given support or aid tt

NOW UNDER WAY
Open Season For Fat Salaries
Opened Today-Blanks
~ Now Available
BURDEN is ON CITIZENS

The federal income tax season op-
ems today, with the distribution of
the forms for personal returns from
the office of collector of internal rev.
enue, Aberdeen, S. D.
From now until the bell rings on
the night of March Is, the annual
returns covering income for 19 10 will
be figured out and filed by citizens
and residents together with payments
of tax due.
Burden on Citizens.
The burden Of fulfilling this obli-
cation is laid by law squarely on the
shoulders of those who are American
citizens or residents. Every person
must determine for himself whether
his net income for 1919, figured ac-
cording to the revenue law, was suf-
ficient in amount to require return.
If he is single, a return is required
if his net income for 1919 was $1,000,
or over. A widow or widower is
classed as single person. A man
or woman living apart from his wife
or husband is also classed as single
person. .,.r IT,. r..
If he was married and living with
his, wife on Dec. 81, a return is re-
quired if his net income for 1919 was
| 81 900, or over. In his net income one
must include that of his wife and
minor children, if any.
Payment With Return.
If a tax is due on his income, he
must make payment with his return.
This payment may be made in whole
or in part of the tax due. At least
one quarter of the tax must accom-
pany the return.
The filing and paying must be done
before midnight Of March 18th, or he
is classed as delinquent and is SUBJ
ject to severe penalties.
Two forms are being distributed
for personal returns. Form 1040A
is intended for use by person whose
net income does not exceed $4,000.
A larger form, 1040, is intended for
each person having a net income in
excess of 5000. Both of these forms
are now obtainable at internal reve-
nue. offices and at some banks and
postoffices.
Get Blanks Now.
1t is urged by the internal revenue
bureau that taxpayers obtain their
blanks at once. Failure to have a
blank form at hand for an eleventh
hour return will not relieve a person
Of penalty for failure to comply with
the law.
Each form contains instructions for
preparing and filing the return, and
these should be carefully read and
strictly observed. ..
There is also provided a "work
sheet" which should be used for MAX
ing the original computations, and

move in the proceedings to extradite
former emperor Wilhelm from Hol-
land is decided upon according to in
formation given the Associated Press
by the French foreign Office. Whether
the next demand for surrender will
be directed to The Hague, or Berlin,
wili~be the main subject to be deter
mined.
The next meeting probably will be
held in London but as no date has
been fixed and the matter can not be
left pending a long time the foreign
office expressed the opinion that the
question might be settled through dip
lOmatic channels between Rome,
Paris and London. 1t is understood
that at least one premier is not ad-
verse to asking Berlin to call for the
return Of Count Hohenzollern to
Germany and then demanding that
Germany deliver him to the allies in
accordance with the provisions OF 22S
of the treaty of Versailles.
