Sullivan Is going to file ;i suit in the district court of Douglas county to test the legality of the oc cupation tax act passed by the late legislature. Judge Sullivan called up on Attorney General Thompson and announced to him that the suit would lie tiled within a short time. Up to this time 1,195 corporations have paid the occupation tax. the fees amounting to $29,150. Of this sum $2,425 has been paid under protest. This money paid under protest, how ever. will go into the state treasury with the other, as there is no law by which it can be held out. The fact that it was paid under protest, how ever. may help the corporation to get it back should the law lie declared unconstitutional and the matter is taken up with the next legislature. There are still about 5,000 corpora tions which have not paid the tax. Of the letters sent out 2.000 have been returned because the corporations have gone out of existence. Under the law the tax must be paid by September 1. or a penalty of $10 is tacked on. ir not paid by Nov. 1. then it is the duty of the state to can cel the license of the corporation and prevent it doing business in Ne braska. Proposed Change in Law. Secretary of State Junkin has un der consideration an amendment to (lie revenue law which lie believes will be good. His amendment pro vides that the State Hoard of Equali zation shall have power to equalize values of the various counties solely for state purposes, leaving to the county boards the authority to place a value on the property for county purposes. Delay, then, on tne part or tne state board would not affect the coun ties to any great extent because the officials could go ahead and extend their levies for county and school purposes, while waiting for the state board. The levy for state purposes is always small compared with the levy for county and city purposes, and the secretary believes there would be no objections to the work of the state board, whether The values were high or low. As it is now, he says, persons are vitally interested in the work of the state board because it is on the values fixed by this board that county and city levies are made. The board lias no right to change the ! assessment of an individual, but merely equalizes values between the counties, so he believes this valua tion so fixed should be used solely for realizing taxes for state purposes. Contractor Gets Stung. The contractor who is drilling the holes on the granite pedestals at the state house through which electric wires are to be run. got “stung" when he thought he was wielding the stinger. When the bids were opened it was discovered that the successful contractor had hid 25 cents a foot, while others bid as high as $1.75 a foot. The successful contractor, sev eral days later, when asked why lie [nit in such a low bid, laughed at the board and informed its members that the pedestals were hollow. When he examined these same pedestals, how ever, he discovered he was badly mistaken. There are four pedestals to be drilled through, and they are about eight feet high, which makes $2 each. Two men working constant ly got tlie hole through one pedestal in two and a half days. Big Race Expected. Secretary Mellor of the state fair board lias received inquiries regard ing the twenty-five mile relay race to be pulled off at the fair front South Dakota. North Dakota, Missouri. Kan sas, Colorado, Montana and Nebraska, and the indications are a big number of horses will be entered. Horses will be changed at every mile and five miles a day will be run. The prizes are as follows: $900,' $400 and $200. For the derbv eight horses have al ready been entered and for the Ne braska-bred 3-year-olds six horses have been entered. These races are as follows: 2:30 trot. $500; 2:25 trot. $500; 2:18 trot. $500; 2:25 pace, $500; 2:18 pace. $500. The Judicial Primary. At this writing Fawcett still has a small lead over Hamer for the third place on the republican supreme judi cial ticket, with almost half of the precincts in the state and consider ably over half of the vote in the state heard from. The returns are not con clusive. however, but from the best estimates of the missing counties and the present standing of the two it is thought Fawcett has the better chance for the place. Sedgwick and Barnes are assuredly nominated, with the for mer leading. Men to Value Railways. The State Railway commission l.as appointed J. L. Biddlecom of Have lock statistician of the mechanical de partment of the physical valuation de partment of its work, and Eugene Reed of Holdrege right-of-way ap praiser. The former is to lie paid $150 a month and the latter $123 monthly. Estimates on Lands Vary. Engineer Hurd, who has charge of the work of finding the physical \alu- 1 ation of railroads, has sent out cards to prominent or posted citizens in the various towns asking the value of real estate adjacent to the railroad right of-way. The answers show a great difference of opinion. From one town, one party said land next to the right-of-way of the railroads was I worth per acre for the best $125, and $!)<> for the poorer. Another party ; who should he equally as well posted raid the land was worth $s() and $73. Investments of State Funds.

TT-' -, Jooor Oh A!, WHO0EUCE3 HALT OF THF O/ WOHCE 5u/ FS ^ KXO. Xev—The popula tion and social life of Ke no, Xev., are undergoing a great change. Where a year or so ago the opti mistic mining promoter, in his. corduroy or khaki and his high russet shoes, was wont to disport him self. to-day may be seen men of the east flashing by in high powered auto mobiles. Where Washoe 1 squaws would a year ago sit and play cards at the corners of the public squares may be seen to-day handsome women in Paris gowns sauntering in the afternoon sun. On the veranda of the leading hotel where a year ago were the silence and desolation that the panic of 1907 produced, idly sit and fight with ennui groups of men and women, who look forward, in ' mental vision, to the time when they will be able to forsake this frontier post ol civilization and whirl an eager flight back to their homes in the east. Hut they are looking for divorces at present, and so they must stay here for at least six months from date of arrival to satisfy the requirements of the Nevada divorce laws with regard to residence. For Reno has succeeded to the eminence formerly occupied by Sioux Falls as the divorce center of America. Some farsighted lawyer got into the Nevada legislature several years ago. and when he got out again there was a divorce law among the statutes of Nevada that for length, breadth, height, elasticity, and all other qualities that commend themselves to the seeker after ; easy matrimonial lreedom, could not be surpassed any where in the union. It was equaled by the South Dakota law. though, and so Nevada and the Nevada lawyer se cured no results from it for the time being. Rut everything comes to him that waits, and when the people of South itakota arose in their wrath last November and, by a referendum vote, declared that any one who desired to get a di vorce in South Dakota would have to live there a year instead of six months, as had been the re quirement previously, the seeker of relief from preseut matrimonial ties began to take the long journey westward to Nevada, where it takes but a six months' residence to be in a position to go before the courts of the state as -plaintiff in a divorce suit. YV. II. Schnitzer, a Reno divorce specialist, has written a treatise on divorce practice and pro cedure, in which he throws an illuminating ray on the wherefore of the popularity of Reno as a divorce center. He says: “While the laws of the eastern and middle western states generally contain some provision [or the dissolution of the marriage tie, it is ob vious to the reader that in cases where extreme cruelty, desertion, and failure to provide form the basis of the grievance, the law in such states of fers no substantial relief to the aggrieved party, because the requirements of proof, duration of iffense, corroboration of plaintiff and procedure under court rules are so exacting and irksome that the desired relief sought by the applicant is rendered impossible of attainment. Summing up the situation as it exists in the eastern states respecting the domestic relation law, the client when consulting local counsel is almost invari ilily advised that upon the facts submitted he or ;he is without remedy. Here in Nevada the ap plicant, without deception or fraud, upon ilrnost any charge from which lack of harmonious relations may be reasonably inferred, may apply o our courts and secure prompt results by de roe of absolute divorce, valid and binding in law.” » YVhile there are about 54 cases now on the locket of the district court, there are in Reno o-day over 350 individuals establishing a resi lence for divorce purposes, a majority of whom ire women.. The charms of Nevada as a divorce center tave oniy just begun to percolate into the con sciousness of the outside world. Reno has no objection to the present status if affairs. It is estimated that the revenue of the own from the divorce colony at present is close to $1,000,000 a year, and that it will rapidly in crease from this on. To a community of but 18, 000 population this is no small consideration. Why Reno is preferred to any other communi ty in the state as a place of residence by those seeking divorces is because of the mtnifold ad vantages of tho town ovei any other in the state. Nevada is primarily a mining state, and nature usually hides Iter precious metals in difficult places. Heno is not a mining camp, and is not only centrally situated from a railroad point of view, hut has scenic attractions rarely to be found in any American community. it is located in tlie heart of u rich agricultural region, and through tho center of the town runs a beautiful mountain stream, the Truckee river. Surrounding the town, at a briot distance, arc snow-capped mountains, and tho winds coming from over their summits keep the air cool on sum mer nights. It is never very warm in Reno. On tho other hand, the win ters are comparatively mild. An altitude of l.Sfit) feet makes tho atmosphere somewhat t ryiug on nerves that are not robust to begin with, but nervous affections are the only complaints to which the climate is unfavorable. I* or the cure ot other ailments hot mineral water springs abound in the vicinity of Heno. Twelve miles away are the famous Steamboat. Springs which Comstock millionaires were wont to patronize 40 years ago. Three miles from Reno is Alonna Springs. Five miles from Heno. io the west, is another famous medicinal resort, Laughton's Springs, he road to which runs along the Truckee river, making a beautiful driving boulevard. Halt way to Laughton s on this road is a magnificent edilice known as "Rick's,” which is the local '.Monte Carlo.” Rick's has all the conveni ences lor those who desire to make a stay, and frequently parties who go there to spend a few hours forget to come back for several days. It might be men tioned in this connection that the divorce colony has brought to Reno over 100 motor cars. The leading hotels are always crowded, and the rents for cottages have appreciated, on the average, to the extent of 50 per cent, in the last six months. In some instances the increase has been much greater. One cottage that rented for $60 a month in January last, now returns its own er a rental of $100 a month. Perhaps the one thing that endears Reno to the visiting divorcee more than anything else is its proximity to San Francisco. One may board a train in Reno and be in the Pacific coast metrop olis in ten hours. Despite its manifold attrac tions, life in Reno is likely to wear irksome upon those who have been used to existence in larger centers, and the visitors, to a great extent, soon er or later during their stay, take a trip or half a dozen trips, over the Sierras to the city by the Golden Gate. Such visits, while affording relief from the monotony of life in Reno, do nor impair the resi dence qualifications necessary to the obtaining of a divorce. To again quote the Nevada divorce authority already mentioned: "Under rile provisions of Section 22 of the Marriage and Divorce act, the plaintiff must re side in the state for a period of at least six months. This is not construed to mean that in order to fully comply with the statute the party must remain here continuously lor said period. So. if a party comes to Nevada, and, in good faith, takes tip a residence, the party may leave the state at any time after establishing residence, may go and travel when and wherever the party chooses, and may return to the state whenever in clination prompts, and yet such temporary ab sence would r.ot in any wise affect ihe legality of the residence established, but the party would be entitled under the law to bring suit any time after the lapse of six months from the date resi dence was originally established, notwithstanding the party's absence trom the state during said period." Biased somewhat by the financial seductions of the situation, and yet to learn the lesson that such a state of affairs can only result in the mor al degradation of the youth of the community—a lesson which caused South Dakota to reform her divorce laws—Reno appears to be perfectly con tented with things as they are. Hut Reno is busily engaged in cleaning house, and it is felt by the most reflective observers that the divorce laws of Nevada as now written will be a thing oil the past in the near future. Not in Ju/)G£P/Ktr, A na Deupes Half ' f OF TH£ D/VCFZCC: 6LUTS j the very near future—lor the next legislature, does not meet until Janu ary of 1911. There are others who point to the experience of South Da kota, which for -<> years fought the evils of lax divorce laws before a re peal was secured, and say that the moralists of Nevada have an ••qually stubborn task before them. Hut Ne vada is cleaning house. In the last session of the legislature, af‘er gam ing being permitted for 10 years with cognizance of law, a bill abolishing gambling was passed the act to takf effect in November of 1910—and it is believed that if that could be done, the slack divorce laws can be more easily repealed. In the meantime the hotel men and cottage renters of Reno and the di vorce lawyers will continue to flour ish. Parisian toilettes and 00 hor. e power automobiles will flash and dart through the quiet thoroughfares at all sorts of hours. Men and women will continue to become "citizens" of Ne vada on a six-months' residence—and leave the state forever the day after securing their divorce decrees. Frohcs of a Real Queen rUiat queens are very human (ic ings after all is evidenced by their delight in the outdoor pleasures which even their hnmhl^t may enjoy. 1 he royal lady of a European court no longer sits in regal splendor in her pulace. sur rounded by ladies in waiting ready to minister to her most languid wish, but you inav meet her motoring in the country or riding horseback in the park. It is an excellent example they are setting for their countrywomen in this respect. Queen Alexandra is a devotee of outdoor life In deed. she attributes keeping young and enjov mg good health to this fact. When a young gir! she was fond of swimming, rowing and driv ing. and even now she never permits a day to go by without taking some exercise. If the weather is too bad for walking she passes several hours at billiards. She is wonder fully skill'd with the cue and is proud of her game.

Persistent automobiling. she believes, offers the quickest means known for getting rid of a nice complexion and gaining 10,000 wrinkles. n Queen Alexandra believes so much in fresh air ami exercise out of doors that she has sometimes slept in a tent she had put up for her at San dringham. Once, asked how she managed to keep young, she said: “Freah-air and exercise are the best elixirs of youth.” Queen Alexandra s particular hobby is photog raphy and that takes her out of doors a great deal. She is said now to possess albums eontain tng over 10,000 photographs, all taken by her own hands, representing royal and important person ages. places and festivals in all parts of Europe. For a period of Id years now the queen has been a dewitee of the camera. She possesses fi/e cam eras. Whenever the queen goes—be it a cruise in the royal yacht, to her home in Denmark or a ride across country in the Highlands—she is never without her camera. That she uses it well is evi dcr.t when it is stated that during one of her Med iterranean cruises she secured 1,400 photographs in six weeks. Then it is very seldom too that tim queen throws out a picture or destroy a neg ative because the subject is not up to th ■ mark. In her v.ay of going to work she is most mothod leal. Her photographs fill many albums and un der each photograph her majesty has written a description of the picture and the date when taken fhev include a great variety of subjects, from Die k.nc s stt.d horses taken in the old days at the arm ia! sale st Wolferton to portraits or her g.amlcluldm, on the lawn at Sandringham am! he Inins of the Parthenon.
