This year the footings of precinct assessors take a decided slump Lincoln depends for revenue upon the val- uation made by the mew city tax commis- ( sioner and his deputies. The law under which his office was created is challenged by leading attorneys and quo warranto proceedings are row hanging fire in the | supreme court. Should the law be declared | unconstitutional several departments of city government would be seriously crippled Succe ul Applicants for Bar. Of the 107 applicants for admission to the bar of Nebraska who availed them- selves of the opportunity of an examination this week before the supreme court commis- sion all but two have been declared su cessful.

As soon as they reach the required age of 21 they will be ad- mitted, however. without further examina- tion. The commission authorized Clerk Herd- man to give certificates to the following | who prepared in law offices: W. H. John- son, Minor Goodrich, Clyde Backus, James Crowley, Henry G.
