REACtl AGREEIOT AS TO PARK LINE ' .... . , Tracks to Be Removed and Freight Cars V Run on Twentieth Street.

It la now up to the city council, at !ta next meeting, to ratify or reject an agreement Juat e ntered Into by the board of works and the T. H., I ft B. traction officials, providing for the removal of car tracks In Glen Miller. The tracks will be torn up and removed fromhe Glen by the company, which in return, under the terms of the agreement, can run its freight cars over North Twentieth street. The board agrees to have the ditch filled up at expense of the city. The agreement is signed by Robert L. Todd, president of the T. I. ft E. and Secretary Joseph A. McGowan. The board of works except Fred

Charles, city engineer, who is absent from the city, signed the agreement for the city. tJ23 The agreement authorizes the company to construct a switch at Twentieth and Main Sts. to permit freight cars running on Twentieth street. Section 3 of the agreement provides that the traction company shall remove

all its tracks, ties and other property

. In the Glen cut, and that the city hall at its own expense fill up the cut. A provision. Is also made, that in case the Interurban company is enjoined from the use of Main and Twentieth streets for its freight cars, It may again construct tracks in the Glen. Council has expressed Itself many

times In favor of the removing of the tracks from the Glen, and the only feature of the agreement that might

be objectionable is the stipulation in

the contract whereby the city pays for

filling the cut at the Glen. The traction company agrees to take the tracks out of the Glen as soon as It can do so.

(National News Association) WASHINGTON. March 11. Senator Joseph M. Dixon, chairman of the National Roosevelt committee, today forwarded Col. Roosevelt's letter on preferential presidential primaries to Rep. McKlnley, director of the na

tional Taft bureau. Mr. Dixon's letter

accompanying It is as follows: "My Dear Mr. McKlnley: "Let me call your attention to the accompanying copy of the letter from Col. Roosevelt. : 1 j jaTC3 "In view 01 this unqualified indorsement of my challenge of March 4 for a general primary test of the sentiment of the Republican voters as to the presidential candidate in the com ing campaign, I shall be glad to know whether Mr. Taft, whose personal representative you are, indorses you in refusing that test. Very Truly Yours, Joseph M. Dixon."

No use to dodge the man that comes to your door, be It front, aide or rear, carrying under his arm a large black book and a number of papers. He will come again If you don't answer the door. In fact, he will keep coming until you do admit him and give him

the Information which he must have. The man is the assessor of your

township or one of his deputies and it is useless to try to dodge him. He

is more persistent than the famous tax ferret. The men in charge of the work of appraising the personal property of the taxpayers of Wayne connty are very busy. They are working as fast as possible in order to complete their

task within the time prescribed by law. In order to do so it la necessary

that everyone in the county give the men all the assistance possible. When the assessor comes to the door he demands no money. He simply wants to

ask you a "thousand and one" ques tions and will do so as quickly as pos

lible and get on to the next house if

you will open the door, Invite him in md take a little pains in giving him he information he must have. Most of the men are well along ir years and a long walk back to this o

that house means much to them. Agair they are men who have raised famillet and are well aware that the house car not always be tidy and the iady of thhouse dressed in her best. He realize there are wash days, ironing, sweepir and cooking days, and does not expec to be greeted at the door by a worn: dressed for a social morning or aftc noon. Just admit him and the wor will proceed without delay and the u sessors will be able to make their : port on time. The assessors are having all kin of experiences and many of them t -eported to those gathered about t amily board in the evenings a: ause much amusement. It would ta i volume to record the experiences iny one of the men engaged in tl vork. There are 128 questions to be e wered but it is probable that ea

assessor asks no less than, one hundred other questions before be succeeds in completing the schedule of each person assessed. From over the country come reports to the effect that the work of the various assessors is moving along rapidly and in most eases smoothly. The work must be completed by May 15th. Already several instances have been encountered in which men have sought to avoid payment of poll tax, but so far without success. This is one of the features of the work of the assessor which it is hoped to build up this year and it is believed that when they have completed their task that there will be many more polls scheduled than last year. - There are two extra questions at the bottom of each schedule that many persons shy at and which give the assessors considerable trouble. Tbey

are': "Does any member of your family or anyone living with you own any property subject to taxation?"

"How many male dogs are harbored by you, how many female dogs." There are many persona who tell file assessors that they are not the owner of a dog and when their attention is called to the fact that there is a dog on the place they will come back with: "It don't belong to me. It's a stray and I don't know where it came from," and there are numerous similar excuses to avoid having the animal scheduled, despite the fact that it may have

been in the possession of the person being assessed for anywhere from a few weeks to a year. PENSION BILL WAS PASSED BY HOUSE
