GRAND ISLAND, Neb.—Mere than
ICO tn.-payers representing every sec
tion or the state of Nebraska met at
Grand Island on February 15th, or
ganized a Taxpayers’ League and
adopted what they believe to be cits
of the most practical programs for
actual and substantial tax reduction
ever considered in the state. The call
was sent out by Bernard McNeny of
Red Cloud and E. G. Kroger of
Grand Island.
The meeting also set in njotion a
movement to form taxpayers’ leagues
throughout the state to carry out the
aims or the organisation. The League
iavered the following proposals:
1. A reduction of 20 per cent of
that portion of the salaries and com
pensation of all public officials in ex
cess of $2000.00 per year; and a re
duction of ten (10) per cent of that
portion of such salaries and com
pensation amounting to $2000.00 or
less.
2. Reduction of the interest and
penalties for failure to pay taxes
when delinquent to six (6) per cent
per annum; and the interest on csr
tificates of sales of property for taxes
to ten (10' per cent per annum; and
provision for paying taxes in tv.o
semi-annual payments If the tax
payer so desires.
3. Immediate reduction by the
State Board of Equalization of the
assessed value of real estate to Its
j present value. '
4. Equal valuation of all property
! for tax purposes.
5. To reduce the maximum school
! tax which may be levied for gene . 1
■ purposes twenty-five (25) per c ,
unless two-thirds of the electors at
the annual school meetings or spec .1
elections otherwise determine.
6. To repeal the so-called Co 3
Law, restore the duties of cons^ na
tional officers, and abolish all u -
necessary bureaus and offices.
7. The placing upon the tax n Is
of all property omitted by the lc -1
assessors.
8. Restoration cf unrestricted lc: .1
self-government of the School o. -
tricts to the governing beards within
the State, making them absolutely
free from the influence or dcir.ra
tion of organizations outride t c
state.
9. The emancipation of the tca~'u
ers of Nebraska from all subjection j
rules and regulations formulate'1 ~y
organizations outside of the state.
10. A survey of the condition cf i...s

garding the qualifications and salaries
of the substitute teachers. The Ne
braska school law requires that a sub
stitute teacher must hold a valid
certificate of at least the same quality
required of the regular teacher in
each individual school. Teachers with
out valid certificates or with certific
ates from other states are not allowed
to substitute in Nebraska.
Schools disregarding this law and
employing teachers not qualified are
in danger of losing their apportion
ment for that year.
Regarding the salaries, the general
rule in rural schools is that the sub
stitute should receive the same wages
as the regular teacher. Each city
school system should set a certain
salary for their substitutes before
hiring them so that there would be
no misunderstanding on either the
part of the substitute or the school.
PAGE
Since last writing we have again
come into our own. Several cars of
hay and feed have been fairly well
distributed, which we are all very
thankful for. That last storm surely
made stock look band, and several
heavy losses are reported.
Two men from Burt county were
in the vicinity and when they saw
empty cribs and no hay they realized
what we were up against. A remark
that was rather humorous was, the
lady had her chickens fastened up and
when busy the chicken house door
came open. Why says one man, the
cow ate the latch off of the door. Is
she that hungry?
They had quite an experience trav
eling the muddy roads. One man had
just returned from California. It was
so late that they stopped over night. |
I noticed they took their overshoes in- (
side. Guess they were afraid that j
afore mentioned cow would be around. I
In the night the master of the house
got gay in his sleep and treated them
to a clear full sized song from one ot
ye old hymn books.
So me thinks they won’t forget their
visit to Holt county.
Roads are had yet but we are in
hopes the worst is over. If they keep
sending us some feed thru this month
we have a good chance to get thru.
If it is like it was in 1895 wc will
have a bumper crop. Hope so. As
an old resident, will say there are
worse places than Holt county. Any
way I don’t hear of anyone going
back east to their wife’s folks like
in 1894. We were most lord of all
we surveyed. Empty house after
empty house, all gone, but they came
back after a while. We didn’t, for we
stayed.

Tilden Citizen: When father, m -

to the cigarette habit nothing • ..n
save the boys and girls of tender ; ge
from acquiring the habit. The tobacco
barons are spending many millions of
dollars every year to accomplish this
end. Through the newspapers, mag
azines and billboards they misrepre
sent the facts by picturing sweet, in
nocent and beautiful young women as
cigarette smokers. They never show
the le'tv'd, immoral women of the dives
who are practically all cigarette fiends
and always have been. Respectable
women in acquiring the habit are, to
that extent, following in the footsteps
of the women of the under world. I
suppose I miss a good many entertain
ing programs over the air because it
makes me sick at heart to listen to the
beguiling propaganda of the cigarette
companies. Of all high powered sales
manship I know of none to compare
with the cigarette advertising.

to find the same cook ’ere today.
