Another tax proposal providing for a discount for payment of taxes before due will be given final consideration Tuesday, with the discount cut from 5 to 3 per cent in general orders to encourage tax payment. The house placed the "dog tax" bill in general orders after proponents claimed licensing was needed for protection of sheep and stock raisers against "cur" dogs, and a move for indefinite postponement lost 47 to 43. The house accepted a committee report recommending passage of a bill providing for a compact between Minnesota, South Dakota and North.
