Work s to begin within the next few days by the Burlington on iis new railroad varde. They will, when completed, run from First and J streets west for a trifle over three miles, and will give the Burling- ton greatly increased facilities for handling cars and making quick exchanges. Work fs expectod to be completed within months after starting. The yards are to be finished In single hump, d le yard style, and will contain twenty-one classification tracks. They will have a capacity of between 600 and 8000 care, At present the only yards of this nature within the vicinity of Lincoln are situated st Galesburg. The new yards will place Lincoln on a par with the other towns along the Burilngton route near Chicago. .| The principal asset of the new yards will be to greatly Increase the speed with which train _crews can make up and dispatch both freight and passenger trains.

Secretary Schaviand of the State Board of Assessment has sent out the following letter to county assessor: In response to numerous requests for in- formation with reference to the assessment | of grain brokers and grain elevator com- panis, and to the end that there may be more uniformity in such aseessments in the future, I beg leave to submit the following: In the case of Central Granaries comp against Lancaster county. 113 N. W., the supreme court held that: “Average capital is the average of the amount of cash and all other property of | every kind used in carrying on the busi- | ness, and, If there is an excess of this average capital over the amount of real| estate and other targible property that can be viewed by the assessor, then such etcess 18 to be added for assesment.’ In the same case the court held that no fixed rule could be applied in arriving at the amount of such average: but in sec- tion 6 of the revenue law It Is provided | that ‘‘for the purpose of determining mel average capital of such grain broker the county assessov or deputy assessor shall have the right to inspect all bocks of ac- count and the check books of such grain broker and shall determine and fIx the amount of such capital by such inspection.” This is in_addition to the provislon con- tained in the same section requiring the graln broker to determine under oath such average capltal It is evident in the light of the decision above referred to, first, that all tangible property of a grain broker or grain com- pany that 'can be viewed by the assessor, Including grain and cash on hand on the first day of April, must be assessed; sec- ond, that in case the grain and cash on hand together with the other visible prop- erty on the first day of April amounts 1o less than the average amount of capital invested and used in carrying on the busi- ness, then the excess of the average amount n ted and used over the amount of tangible property found must be added for assessment; third, that in case the amount of grain, cash and other tangible property on the first day of April exceeds the aver- age amount of capital used in carrying on the business, then nothing Is to be added to the assessment of such tangible prop- erty: and fourth, that Inasmuch as no fixed rule can be prescribed or applied in determining the average amount of capl- tal, the same must be determined according to the facts and clrcumstances in each ticular ca: e acasors’ Reports File Within less than a month the State Board of Asscssment will begin to grind and al- ready a few of the smaller railroads have made thelr reports to the board. All the reports under the law must be filed with the board by April 15. Many of the assessors have returned the valuation of rallroad property in the cities and towns under=the provislons of the ter- minal tax law, and these reports in some instances show a marked decrease in the valuation of the same property as fixed by the state board last year in equalizing the returns of the assessors.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, April 7.—(Special Telegram.)— Gov Shallenberger has vetoed 8. F. 1M, by Raymond of Scott's Bluff county, at the request of senator and those who stood sponsor for him. The bill pro- vides for the condemnation of excess water in This would permit the use in these reservoirs over a has been figured, how- ever that in some Instances fully 80 per cent of the water is lost through evapora- tion and seepage and for this reason those who originally framed the bill concluded it would be a bad measure and 8o informed the governor Governor Shallenberger will veto the bill providing for the Indeterminate sentence. The bill creates a board for the purpose of hearing appiications for paroles and fixes the salary at $10 a day for the lawyer and physiclan members for the days actually employed, but provides no maximum for the amount they may receive in one year. There is no appropriation for caryring the bill into effect. It does not provide u board for hearing applications for com- mutations or pardons. Senate files 321, 122 and 117 were signed The first provides that corporations shall do business through a local agent upon whom service may be secured. The other two provide that county depositories and state depositorles may deposit securities Instead of giving a security bond for the guaranty of county and state money, Governor Shallenberger issued a state- ment regarding his veto of Senate File N 35, the indeterminate sentence bill whlch he said: Before vetoing this act, ted its provisions very a number of reasons the following First. One of the Is to create a nor reservolrs. water held in 1 have Investiga- caretully, Among for my action are provisions of this act prison board. This board Is to have jurisdiction of hearings on all applications’ for paroles of persons im- prisoned In the penitentiary. No provision is made for board to conduct the hear- Ings on applications for pardone, reprieves or communications. If the legislature can lawtully create a prison board to conduct hearings on applications for paroles, 1 can see no reason why the same board could not be empowered to conduct hearings on wpplications for pardons, reprieves and commutations. The hearings on applica- tions for pardons, reprieves and commuta- tions are so intimately connected with the matter of issuing paroics, that it would be impossible to separate them and have one class of cases heard by the board and the other heard by the governor. The principal reason urged for the crea | tion of this board is that it will relieve the governor of the necessity of the hearings on applications The matter of hearing paroles takes less conducting for parole. applications for ime than the applica- tions for pardons, reprieves and commuta- tions, so the governor would not be re- lieved of the important part of this w o rk. Second. On April 5, 199, 1 approved the Snyder law, House Roll No. 514. That law, yhich passed with an _emergency clause, repealed and amended Sections 6 and 570 of the criminal code. Under the provis- fons of that law, the Governor will not be required to s pend so much time in con- ducting hearings as he has heretofore. The Snyder law is now in effect. The present uct attempt to repeal Section 570 of the criminal code. This section as It now exists Is different than It was when the present Act was Introduced and passed by the legislature. 1 hardly think that the approval of Senate File No. 33 would re- peal Section 60 of the criminal code, as amended by the Snyder law. The approval of the present Act would create confusion and doubt as to the manner of securing paroles. “Third. This Act creates two new officlals of ten dollars ($10.00) per day. Tt does not fix the maximum sala that can be drawn by these officials. Bus- iness experience has demonstrated the ne- cessity of fixing a maximum salary of all officlals. In my message to the legislature, 1 strongly urged that all offi- clals be placed upon a salary basis this Act provides for payment of salarles no appropriation has been made to defray expense arising under its provisions.
