LIVINGSTONE'S SAVIOR.
Explorers Speculate as to the Fate
of Stanley.

LONDON, Dec. 17.-Mr. Thomson, the
African explorer, writes that it is only
too probable that the mahdi has cap
tured Emin Bey. He expresses unhesi-
tatingly the conviction that Stanley
never reached Emin, but was annihi-
lated with his whole party in the region
to the east of Albert Nyanza. In this re-
gion he says there are dense forests
and swamps, and Stanley and his fol-
lowers must have had to march almost
in single file, and to fight for their daily
food. The absence of news, he says. is
quite natural. because there are Doslave
or trade routes by which an Arab mer-
chant could carry news. The disaster
was wholly due to the selection OF the
Congo route. Why that route was Sc
lected still requires an explanation. Mr..
Troup, the transport officer of the Stan
ley expedition, writes that there was
not a single Snider rifle, nor any ammu-
milton for that kind of rifle, in the party
when it left Yambunpa

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis.,, Dec. IA
gigantic scheme to wheedle the county
out of large amount of valuable land
was discovered to-day. Last spring the
county board at Its session taxed on the
deed to the county all lands upon which
taxes had remained unpaid for many
years. This land is very valuable and
contains a large amount of standing
pine. A syndicate of pine land dealers
of this city have been quietly at work
using political influence to secure
majority of the members to sign a de-
lusive petition authorizing the county
clerk to sell the standing pine on
the lands owned by the county. By
disappearing the amount of timber
on the lands and its real value about
ten members were induced to sign. In
ducements were offered to a county
official to give written opinion testify
ing as to the legality of the transaction,
but he refused the offer. and the scheme
was brought to light. The pine on the
lands in question would bring to-day
$4,000, and the syndicate, if they had
succeeded in this scheme, would have
cleared about $4,000.

How the Tariff is Collected.

Does the tax gatherer come to ones
house, is asked, when he desires to col
lect tariff bill? Oh, no. Nothing is
heard of the thing the year round.
Nothing on the surface indicates that
the day laborer, the clerk, the nurse,
the mechanic, the Car driver, the coach
man, the cook or the news boy ever
contributes anything toward the Gov
ernment's income or the extra profits
of the lordly manufacturing capitalists.
But they do contribute just the same.
This is the succinct way in which an
exchange puts the case:
Fer every 81 that goes to the Gov
ernment s. goes to the manufacturer
as bounty. The tax was collected when
the person named bought what they
have in their houses or on their backs.
On one mans working suit of clothes
costing ~, the bounty to the manu-
facturer Was 1927; one good suit cost
ing $40, bounty $6.4S; overcoat cost
ing $l5, bounty $4.S5; two flannel
shirts, $l.50, bounty 64 cents: two
flannel drawers. 81 60, bounty "a cents !;
six wool sacks, $500, bounty Sc cents !;
one wool hat, SO, bounty $l.29; one
wool cap, 81, bounty 43 cents; one
pair suspenders, GO cents, bounty IA
cents; one pair of shoes, So. so, bounty
~ cents; one pair wool gloves, so
cents. bounty, 81 cents; rubber coat,
$500, bounty 81 cents; umbrella, 81,
bounty 35 cents; three linen handker-
chiefs, 81, bounty "a cents; one silk
tie, so cents, bounty II cents; one
pocket knife, $125, bounty ~ cents !;
razor, Sl.25, bounty AZ cents; shaving
brush, 80 cents, bounty 8 cents; four
cotton shirts, SO, bounty IS cents; two
pair cotton drawers, 81, bounty 81
cents; one wool scarf, so cents, bounty
81 cents.
Any laboring man or other person
having small income is able to Judge
whether he is in position to make a
present to anybody of the bounty he
pays mentioned. Ii he is single man
perhaps he can spare the sum named
and is willing to do so. But if he has
use for the money, amounting on these
articles alone to $32.2 year he has a
right to vote at the poll to keep it in
his pocket. Put in life insurance, or
in savings bank, 1929 q year may
provide very nicely for rainy day.
