ng duets. From the time the dinner
started till the meeting closed at nearly
10 O'Clock there was not dull moment.
Superintendent Fred Holt was intro
duced as POSTMASTER, duty that he
performed in his accustomed graceful
manner.
Mayor Leary in brief and neat
speech extended the welcome to the
convention in behalf of the city of Ed
gerton. B. G. Wilson for the Cham
Der of Commerce and the citizens ex-
pressed the pleasure of the Edgerton
folks in having this distinguished as
semhly come to the city, and welcomed
everybody to the joys of the table.
George Blanchard was called upon by
the POSTMASTER, and he responded by
saying many pretty things about Ed
gerton and its suburb" GAINESVILLE.
Mr.. Allen Earle, through the courtesy
of friends in Fond du Lac, put on
series of moving pictures presenting
U. w. activities, and the activities now
open to our children in the public
schools.
This closed the Edgerton end of the
entertainment, the POSTMASTER thank
ing everybody for the assistance given
in making the evening success, and
turning the meeting over to it's chair
man, Mr.. Bentley of La Crosse, who
promptly called the convention to order
for regular session.
The business session of the conven-
ton was featured by an address by J.
U. d. Mack, state chief engineer; his
topic was 'Some Points Regarding
Contracts, Specifications and Bids for
Public Work, !" and by most interest
ing discussion of ''The Ever-Present
Highway Problem" by A. R. Hirst,
state highway engineer His address.
which advocated we'll defined and or
ganized plan of state and national road
building and road maintenance policy
to be followed as continuous program,
was listened to with close attention.
He stated that before snow flies $500
miles of modern highways and an ad-
ditional 1000 miles Of improved high
ways will have been added to the high
ways of Wisconsin. The cost $24, O0O,-
900 for construction and $4,000, 900 for
maintenance. Twenty thousand men
had been in the employ of the highway
commission. Mr.. Hirst is back of
road building and taxation bill for road
purposes which the last legislature
failed to pass. 1t aims at saddling a
large share of the cost of highways
upon the auto and truck traffic.
At the close of his address Mayor
Hoen of Milwaukee arose to discuss the
subject before the convention and
pointed out what to him seemed a
weakness in the Hirst plan, namely,
that the money raised on motor vehi-
cles throughout the cities would be
used for trunk highways, and that the
part of the assessable property in the
cities would thus cease TO yield revenue
for street purposes in the cities. After
brief remarks by other members, the
convention voted to appoint a commit
tee to prepare the matter and report
with it's recommendations to the next
annual convention.
A little before 1000 the convention
adjourned and returned to GAINESVILLE.
The convention has come and gone.
Edgerton did it's share as host cheer
fully; and it hopes that the visitors
carried away with them as agreeable
remembrances of the day as it was in
the heart of the citizens of Edgerton
to give.

ALL PURCHASERS TO
 PAY GASOLINE TAX

The tax on gasoline provided for in house bill 35 applies to all purchas- CTS of gasoline made on behalf of the state and federal governments. ac- cording to an opinion rendered by w. J. Galbraith, attorney general.
 The law provides that all dealers and distributors of gasoline shall rem der a statement to the secretary of state of all gas sold and distributed by them in the state, and pay a li- cense of one cent a gallon on all sold which tax shall be added to the sales price of the dealer.
 in the opinion of Galbraith there does not appear to be any exception to the law with reference to any pur- chaser of gasoline whether or not he be an official.

BOARD FINISHES EXAMINATIONOF IF
 COUNTY ROLLS
Less Than l2 Assessments Are Questioned And All
 Easily Adjusted

Chairman l. R. Hart and Members ID. A. Adams and I. C. F.. Adams, of the board Of supervisors, who have been in Tombstone the past 10 days sitting as a board of equalization. completed their work yesterday af- ternoon and returned to their respec- tive homes.
 Speaking of the assessments levied in Cochise county by Assessor Geo. R. Henshaw and his deputies, the su- pervisors were all in accord on the fact that but very few adjustments have been asked for. while in practi- cally every instance the taxpayers have been satisfied to allow their as- sessments to stand as placed by the assessor when the manner of levying had been explained.
 "Out Of practically 15.000 individu- al assessments, but bare dozen tax payers appeared in Tombstone to ask for adjustments, which in itself speaks we'll for the manner in which the tax assessments have been made said one member of the board today.
 The supervisors, however. have been on hand a full working day each of the ten days specified by law which they must be in session to hear complaints and lent their assist ance and gave hearing to every tax payer who appeared. all of whom left satisfied They are pleased with the results so far and are glad to have had the opportunity to spend ten days in Tombstone's environment.
 It is expected the tax rate will be kept materially under $1.O0. but un- til the budget is fixed for the ensuing year, which will be done in July, and the abstract completed. which starts next week. this cannot be determined.
 Assessor Henshaw has completed entering the rolls and l.. F. Kuchen- becker clerk of the board, will start in on the abstract Monday and fol lowing completion of the abstract the rolls will be turned over to County Treasurer Guy c. Welch for comput- ing of taxes and mailing of the state ments.

DO NOT FORGET

The second installment of your in- come tax is due on next Wednesday and must be in the hands of the rev enue collector at Phoenix on that date. There are no days of grace ai- lowed as was done in the first pay ment. Those who were fortunate to have money enough to pay the whole amount in March are of course not concerned with this payment, but those who are paying on the install ment play should not overlook the fact that it is due. It might save some ex- tra money to attend to it at once.
