Feb. 36. (Special.)- Whit seems to be A gigantic acheme lo get around the consenuences of the new rev enue law hns Just come to light, and unless frustrated In advance will In all proba bility result In the removal from office of a number pf county sssessors who are ssid to be In the scheme, or the loss of much revenue to the state. It Is nothing more nor le. than to agree upon a valuation of property for assessment purposes Instead of taking the actual value of property as I a basis ss provided 1'V law. At lost twelve counties In the northeast sectlou of the state ore implicated and the plans have proceeded so far that a meeting hns been called at Norfolk of the assessors of these counties for Mirch 1. Secretary Bennett of the board had his attention called to the matter this morn ing by a letter from J.sph. Smith, county asscssor-of Cuming county, who wrote that he had been Invited to meet with n doxen assess rs In his section of the state for the purposo of agreeing upon a basis of assessment. Mr. Smith asfccoS if th sec retary had s-nt out such a call, concluding his letter with the statement that he un derstood the law was plain that assess ments "must be made on the actual cash value of the property and not upon the agreed value." For answer Mr. Bennett sent to Smith a copy of the revenue law j with section 12 and section 115 marked. The first named provides that all property not expressly exempt shall be valued at Its actual cash value and assessed at 20 per cent of this amount. The latter sec tion providrs that when It shall appear to the satisfaction of the board of equalisa tion that any county' assessor has neglected or refused to obey the Instructions of the oerd or refused to obey any of th pro visions of the law, the board shall re move such assessor from office and the office Khali become vacant. It Is the Intention of the board to fol low the law In this respect and If the as sessors hold their meeting and agree upon valuation to be placed on property in their respective counties, likely they will not be allowed to finish out a first term of office. It la said this was one of the main reasons why the revenue under the old law was not what It should be and In order to give the new law every op portunity to make good, the board will not permit of any agreement of the kind contemplated by assessors. loaeentrate Work at Havelock. V Tne reduction In the mechanical forces of the Burlington at Alliance, Wymore and McCook does not mean that a line of re trenchment has been started by that road, said a prominent Burlington official this afternoon, but that the heavy work will be centered in Havelock. All of the men who have been let out have been offered places In Havelock and all of them will be taken care of, thla official stated. At the places named sufficient men will be kept to attend to the routine repair work and that Is all. This will mean that th num ber of employes at Havelock will be ma terially increased. "It la a simple business proposition," declared the official. "The company has S250.000 Invested In machinery at Havelock of the most modern descrip tion and can do the work quicker and better than at the points named, because the machines In use at the latter places are old and out of date. Sheridan, which em ploys at the present time about thirty-five men, will also have Its force reduced to the limit of the cities mentioned, and the roundhouse at Lincoln has already had some of Its force diminished. "Of course. It Is hard for the cities named to feel reconciled over the loss of a prom ising Industry and the movlifg away of a number of their best cltlxens, but it Is something that cannot be helped without serious loss to the road. "It has been found that even when the cost of the long haul Is considered. It Is much cheaper to send every engine on the system west of the river to Havelock that requires heavy or extensive repairs." Kalaht Saes for Boa. Moaey.
