Berry swore that he would kill the this honor the Judge declined, saying that knard If he ever got the opportunity and under no circumstances would he be a candidate. It Is the opinion now that he will not be endorsed for senator because It Is not likely that the democratic convention will endorse, relying on the republican convention to do that and then playing the field aglnt their candidate. Consequently there Is little else to give Judge Sullivan except the vice presidential endorsement and that more likely will be his. Aaseaaments on Telephones. K. M. Morsman. attorney for the Ne braska Telephone company, came down from Omaha this morning and talked to the Board of Equalization regarding that section of the revenue law which provides tl it the telephone company shall make report of lt property to local asxessors. Mr. Morsman desired that the board In terpret local aaHenaor to mean county as sessor. ' After deliberating over the matter most of the afternoon the board decided not to come around to Mr. Monynan's way of thinking, but that the company should not only make lt return to the counfy ns sesitor, but to the local or deputy assessor as well. It also gives the county assessor authority to use the report In Instructing his deputies. Should the assessor desire to do so under this ruling It Is leltet-el that he could give the deputies returns from the report made to him. A member of the board, however, argued '.hat the cour.ty aje'r could use the report as a check on the company and on his deputies. It would mean considerable expanse and much trouble to the rompany, Mr. Mors man argued. If the company had to make returns to every deputy assessor that askeJ for It. While If local assessor meint county assessor, then there would be only ninety returns to re n.ado out. If It was the other way. then pro'.iabiy 1.000 returns would have to he mad.
