The whole law Is proving a great puzzle to the county assessors. The entire body of twenty-eight men were called In for a few days and given a day's schooling by the county auditor and county attorney and the law explained to them as clearly as possible. They were also patiently drilled In the use of the various blanks that must be filled out and the double sots ot books that must bo- kept. . Tlio feature of the law that relates to the assessment of corporations and banks has not troubled the country assessors , but It Is giving occasion for some thought to city as- sessors ¬ and likewise to the people who arc to- bo assessed. If the law Is administered as Its framera Intended many people will pay taxes next jear who have been exempt in the past. These are people whose possessions have been In the shape of nionojs and credits that } lcld comfortable Incomes , but glvo the assessor no tangible evidence of their exist ¬ ence- .Iho . law requires the listing for taxation ol all credits , annuities , banknotes and stocks ol all kinds. The term credit as used In the law Is defined as Including every claim or domain ! due or to become duo for money , labor 01 other valuable thing , every annuity or sum of money receivable at stated periods nnd all money or property of any kind se- cured ¬ by deed , title , bond or salaries , or mortgage or otheiwlse ; pensions from the United States or silarles or payments ex- pected ¬ are not Included. This particular taxable list Is further described In a separ- ate ¬ section , which specifies "monejs , credits and coiporation shares or stocks , except as otherwise provided , cash , circulating notes of national banking associations and the United States legal tender notes , jnd other notes and certificates of the United States pajable- on demand and circulating or Intended to circulate as currency ; notes , including those secured by mortgage , accounts , contracts for cash or labor , bills of exchange , judgments , chosps In actions , liens of any kind , securi- ties ¬ , debentures , bonds other than those of the UrlteJ States , annuities and corporation shares or stocks not otherwise In kind , shall be assessed as provided In this chapter. " Debt I are to bo deducted fiom the list of- monejs and credits Building nnd loin shares are exempt , but the debts of the in- dividual ¬ must be shown to be founded upon actual consideration Indebtedness contracted b > the purchase of United States bonds can- not ¬ bo deducted.- Thcro . lias been much complaint in the past that private bankers have had no dilllculty- In escaping their Just proportion of the taal- lon - burden. A section of the now law has been framed with special reference to them Private bankers are described as any person or persons whose business Is the receiving ot- depcslts subject to check , on certificates , receipts or otherwise , or the selling of e- change. - . All such persons arc required to furnish a sworn statement showing the as- sets ¬ aside from real estate and liabilities of the bank or banker on the first day of Jan- uary ¬ each jear. This list must show the amount of money on hand or In transit , the funds In the hands ot the other banks or- perbons and the amount of checks or other cabh items ; the actual value of credits due or to become due ; the amount of all deposits made with them by others , and also the amount of bills payable ; tlie actual value of bonds and stocks of every kind and shares ot capital stock , or Joint stock of other cor- porations ¬ held as an Investment , or In any- way representing assets , and all other prop- erty ¬ pertaining to the business.

Here totoro they have taken up halt ot the tlm- ot the head Janitor through the week by call- Ing for things dally. The suggestion was up- proved. . Chairman Spruit of the teachers' commit- tee stated that theio were about fourtee- puplln in the high school who enterej th- biiii'ness course before the change ot tw- jcars to four jcars was made In the kngt- ot the course , and ho suggested that as al these pupils would hive graduated this jea under the old course It was a matter o keeping faith with them to permit them t receive their diplomas. All ot the members with the exception ot Sims , favored this Idea Ho declared that It was cheapening th- courea , and ho was only In favor of Issuln the certificate showing the time thcj l.ni studied Instead of the diploma. Superintend- ent ¬ Hlsey said It would be impracticable t lave them complete the year In the Idcntlca manner laid down. In the old course , as a number of changes had been i ido , but If th board wished to grant the diplomas to thes pupils for their two joils' study an equiva- lent to the old course could be arranged b the principal It was finally decided to gran the pupils their diplomas upon the comple- tion of their two j ears' course or Its equiva- lent. . The question of tuition of nonresident pu pile was called up again by Secretary Gra- son's report of the number of pupils who ha. not paid their tuition. He- presented tw- lists. . One comprised the names ot thos whom the oecretary's Investigations lac shown wcro unable to pay and the enforce- ment of the rule would deprive of the bene- fits of the schools , and the other of thcu who were able1 to pay but had neglected o- refused. . The former list he rccommendec should bo excused. This conta'ned the name of Ethel Mitchell , Ueua Anderson , Bernlc McCarthy , Uuby Grant , Nettle Cowan , How- ard and ray Drown , Udlth Dlller, Tranl Page and Louis Perron. On motion ot Sims the tuition was ordered remitted The othc list bore the names of Hulda Lareon , Donau Martin , Harold Truax , Carrie Bonham Maude Turner , Maude Norton , Frank Andei son , Mcda Ward , Kttlo Uapp , Ida Stevei Bessie Stever and Grace Ware. The secretar ; was instructed to notify the parents am guardians ot these pupil's that they mus comply with the orders of the board to pay the tuition or show cause why the pupil should not bo dismissed. The secretary reported tlat the deeds to the lots on which the Pierce street school i located had never been recorded. The over- sight was ordered to corrected at once. A $30,000 building has been on the grounds for- ever a dozen jears. The report from the principal of the hlgl school stated that the promotion of the new class that will enter next Monday , some twenty-five In number , will add four reclta- tions to their program , This , ho said , woul- inako It necessary to Increase the teaching force , and Secretary GrasTi , who has been employed on half time in charge of the bus ! ness department , was placed on full time The added duties of the position would make t impossible to attend to his duties of sec- retary ¬ and ho therefore tendered his reslg- nation. .

Chairman Qnrst of the acnato ap- propriations ¬ committee does not itako an cn- eotiraglng - view of the outlook for appro- priations ¬ for s'ato Institutions this year.- Ho . said thla afternoon that the ways nnd means tand appropriations committees wcro agreed , In a general ivay , the} enough siv- ing - must bo made In the coming ilennlum- to pay the state ddbt , In, the main at least , without Increase of taxes. To do this ho calculated thcro would too no money to ap- propriate ¬ for new buildings nt Institutions.- Chciokco . nska $279,000 for Insauo my- lum - completion , Marshalltovvn wants $40,000 for a new building at the Soldiers' Home , Clarlnda wants $151,000 for repairs and new building , the Omaha Exposition commission nska ' $< 7,400 , for on exhibit , Ames asks $11- 475 , - for the Improvement of the groundi ?, library nnd museum and purchase of a red- donco - for the president.

The domosrata are forcing the fight In the house In the effort to abolish the offices of state printer nnd binder. H began today when a Joint resolution from the senate for a Joint convention nt 11 30 a. m. , to elect printer ami binder and wardens of the peniten- tiaries ¬ went to the house nnd on objection to Immediate consideration went over , under the inlcs The objection came from the democratic side and tomorrow the democrats propose ti > make their fight. They will flrct move an amendment to divide the question and secure first a vote on a Joint conven- tion ¬ to elect wardens ? . fThls amendment will make It possible to postpone action till Tuesday , so that the Joint convention at the eaillcst will not bo ibcforo Tuesday. The democrats In both "bodies have cau- cused ¬ and claim they will to solid for any oourso looking to abolishing the offices and substituting the contract system of doing- ntato woik. Tomorrow morning's vote in the house will fujuisfi a test of strength in that body. If 'tho democrats lose now they will at once bring In a Ijill to abolish the ofllces and try , to carry It during the session.

Senator Healy left tonight for New York and Senator iCarnoy for .Wisconsin , to study board of control workings In those states Dot'n represent thft senate ways : nd means committee and favor the Healy plan of an executive central beard. The senate bill will bo drawn after thcli rcluin. The at- titude ¬ of the house special committee which will "draft the bill for that body Is stil'i doubtful , but indications are it will favor the Merrlam plan of a boaid with merely ad- visory ¬ powers Merrlam Is on the commit- tee ¬ and working hard In the house to create sentiment In favor of his Idea. Speaker Funk's latest expression indicates that he wants a boaid with administrative and ex- ecutive ¬ powers , to Include in Its Jurisdiction the educational as well as the other Institut- ions. ¬ . The Healy plan does not Include the educational institutions under the boaid's- authority. . President iDeardsher of the Agricultural college said today ho favored an advisory board and did not object to it having the educational institutions under Its Jurisdic- tion ¬ ; but he decidedly objected to It having executive and administrative powers. He wanted those lowers left with the local boards , as The Hood of new bills continued today. In the house Dlako presented ono to make'It a misdemeanor for a candidate to treat a voter or to have any agent do so , and fur- ther ¬ to make It disqualify the candidate If elected. Appropriation bills were pre- sented ¬ as follows : Dempster , to appropriate $50,050 for the Soldiers' Orphans homo nt Davenport ; by Darker , for $47,398 for the In- stitution ¬ for Feeble-Minded at Glennood ; by Real , for $279,000 to complete the Hqspltal for the Insane at Cherokee ; by Venoman , for f4,174 } for the State Agricultural society.- In . the senate MoArthm of the Durllngton presented a bill to repeal entirely all laws for the collection of poll tax. Junktn pre- sented ¬ ono to do away with the annual ap- propriation ¬ of $22,000 for the fllenwood In- stitution ¬ for Feeble-Minded and substitute a per capita support fund of $12 per month for the present allov.ance of 10. This would save about $8,000 a year net- .RDTRENCHMUNT . AND REFORM. There Is ono committee that this now oodo provides for which It is safe to say few state officers reallez Is In elxstenco. It Is the committee on retrenchment and reform and Is the only statutory committee In the legislative organization. It has powers over- all state oulcero and can Issue subpoenas and inflict ruuishmcnt for contempt.

very careful study ot the new law pro-

viding¬

for Iho assessment of corporations antbanlts has convinced the county authoritiesthat It will glvo the assessors moro troublethan any other portion ot the now revenuelaw. The whole law Is proving a greatpuzzle to the county assessors. The entirebody of twenty-eight men were called In for afew days and given a day's schooling by thecounty auditor and county attorney and thelaw explained to them as clearly as possible.They were also patiently drilled In the useof the various blanks that must be filled outand the double sots ot books that must bo-

kept. . Tlio feature of the law that relates tothe assessment of corporations and banks hasnot troubled the country assessors , but It Isgiving occasion for some thought to city as-

sessors¬

and likewise to the people who arc to-

bo assessed. If the law Is administered asIts framera Intended many people will paytaxes next jear who have been exempt inthe past. These are people whose possessionshave been In the shape of nionojs and creditsthat } lcld comfortable Incomes , but glvo theassessor no tangible evidence of their exist ¬

.

law requires the listing for taxation olall credits , annuities , banknotes and stocks olall kinds. The term credit as used In thelaw Is defined as Including every claim ordomain ! due or to become duo for money ,

labor 01 other valuable thing , every annuityor sum of money receivable at stated periodsnnd all money or property of any kind se-

cured¬

by deed , title , bond or salaries , ormortgage or otheiwlse ; pensions from theUnited States or silarles or payments ex-pected

been framed with special reference to themPrivate bankers are described as any personor persons whose business Is the receiving ot-

depcslts subject to check , on certificates ,receipts or otherwise , or the selling of e-

cided¬

that It Mould bo wise to consult thetaxpajcrs a little further , and for this pur-pose

¬

determined upon calling <i specialmeeting to bo held next Monday cven'ng.-At

The of formulating a better eystcn-tor the purchase ot supplies for all ot thdepartments of tlio schoala was dtacusewSecretary Graaon's plan which was called fu-

at the last meeting was presented. The plarequires an cstlnato to bo made each yeaof the amount of supplies for all dep irt-mcnts In the schools , and apportion ! !)

the amount to bo expended at each schoo-to bo based upon the averase attendanceand thit the Janitors and principals be re-

strlctcd from the limits. Chair-man Thomas ot the finance committee ap-proved thp plan nnd tilt the conrnltteo on supplies bo Instructed to mike aannual estimate of the total supplies lueJci-nnd advertise for bids Secretary Grason &ugRested that nil bids ba accompanied by sampies of the nrtlclea to bo supplied. Uoth sug-gcstlonq were approved. Secretary Grason-'p'rn of checking and bookkeepingapprocd.-

Mr..

. Sims of the janitors and supplies commltteo said that the Issuing of supplies tthe Janitors of the various buildings vvabeing done In a very loose manner andthat all supplies In the future bo Issued di-rectly by the supervisor ot buildings ngrounds Spruit suggested that the Janitorbe required to get their supplies for the en-

tire week on E-Uurdajs from 8 to 12. Heretotoro they have taken up halt ot the tlm-ot the head Janitor through the week by call-Ing for things dally. The suggestion was up-proved. .

Chairman Spruit of the teachers' commit-tee stated that theio were about fourtee-puplln in the high school who enterej th-biiii'ness course before the change ot tw-

jcars to four jcars was made In the kngt-ot the course , and ho suggested that as althese pupils would hive graduated this jeaunder the old course It was a matter okeeping faith with them to permit them t

receive their diplomas. All ot the memberswith the exception ot Sims , favored this IdeaHo declared that It was cheapening th-

courea , and ho was only In favor of Issulnthe certificate showing the time thcj l.nistudied Instead of the diploma. Superintend-ent

¬

Hlsey said It would be impracticable t

lave them complete the year In the Idcntlcamanner laid down. In the old course , as anumber of changes had been i ido , but If thboard wished to grant the diplomas to thespupils for their two joils' study an equiva-lent to the old course could be arranged bthe principal It was finally decided to granthe pupils their diplomas upon the comple-tion of their two j ears' course or Its equiva-lent. .

The question of tuition of nonresident pupile was called up again by Secretary Gra-son's report of the number of pupils who ha.not paid their tuition. He- presented tw-

lists. . One comprised the names ot thoswhom the oecretary's Investigations lacshown wcro unable to pay and the enforce-ment of the rule would deprive of the bene-fits of the schools , and the other of thcuwho were able1 to pay but had neglected o-

refused. . The former list he rccommendecshould bo excused. This conta'ned the nameof Ethel Mitchell , Ueua Anderson , BernlcMcCarthy , Uuby Grant , Nettle Cowan , How-

ard and ray Drown , Udlth Dlller, TranlPage and Louis Perron. On motion ot Simsthe tuition was ordered remitted The othclist bore the names of Hulda Lareon , DonauMartin , Harold Truax , Carrie BonhamMaude Turner , Maude Norton , Frank Andeison , Mcda Ward , Kttlo Uapp , Ida SteveiBessie Stever and Grace Ware. The secretar ;

was instructed to notify the parents amguardians ot these pupil's that they muscomply with the orders of the board to paythe tuition or show cause why the pupilshould not bo dismissed.

The secretary reported tlat the deeds tothe lots on which the Pierce street school i

located had never been recorded. The over-sight was ordered to corrected at once. A$30,000 building has been on the grounds for-ever a dozen jears.

The report from the principal of the hlglschool stated that the promotion of the newclass that will enter next Monday , sometwenty-five In number , will add four reclta-tions to their program , This , ho said , woul-inako It necessary to Increase the teachingforce , and Secretary GrasTi , who has beenemployed on half time in charge of the bus !
