~HOusekeeping Linens

The truth about our Linens
and their prices would ordi-
narily read like exaggeration.
Our mastery of the Linen
markets is SO strong and so
large as to produce remarkable
results. If ri .ail buyers would

RANKING SYSTEMS COMPARED.

Mr.. Francis Emerson, president OF the
First National bank at Mckinney, CONN
county. in giving his objections to MI
Carlisle's banking plan, mentions one tact
wherein it fails in relieving the treasury
brt RI y limited extent. He says: "Sev'
or+v-fve per cent of $672,671,36o, the
,,rosont canital engaged in banking, would
norol about S5OO,OOO,000 and it is pro-
vided the secretary can retire united
S-,res treasury notes, not exceeding
IN nor cent of the latter amount, or say
$3.50 100000, thus leaving about a thiru
of This class of currency in crculatloh'
+bot &c another class of currency would be
added to the already too numerous xmas
If naper money we are afflicted win Ut
present" &c
This NAV be true, but the latter class OF
,,,rroncv could not work the damage 10
the treasury that the present legal ten
doris work. and if the system OF MT Gar
Isle can get clear of two-thlrds Oh the
,,roorbocks by retiring them, thus lar at
Ioost will the treasury be relieved II there
&c M wav for complete relief certainly II
woud be wise to embrace sometnihs 'n"'
would give partial relief
Mr. Emerson also objects to the sec
tion that provides for the issue Oh sloo
for every .S75 the banks own or can make
+ho onnoarance that they own, but as he
admits a sum equal to ~ per cent Oh ILLS
s75 is to be paid in the now existing cur
roncv os a guarantee fund, 1t seems
+bo+ the amount of 80 per cent upon their
noid nm unimpaired capital, together with
IN tax of - centum per ahnum un'i
ner cent is paid up ought to be conslu-
cred as equal to gilt edged paper anu ai,
onn,o security for this $50 additional
issue to the SIS of the unimpareu eapi-

inc circulation until it shall equal per

fered by the Carlisle plan is ample
Mr. Emerson recommends a special Is
sue Of pon-interest paying bankers bonds
the banks being compelled by law to buy
these bonds at par, for which the govern
ment would be bound to issue new notes
TO the full value, which would he legal
tender for every purpose. This plan fails
to do two important things, first to give
the government an opportunity to go out
of the banking business, and secondly
TO relieve the government of the empar-
rassment of the present legal tenders.

of the United States and the secretary
of the treasury may under proper rules
and regulations to be established by him,

print or engrave its notes in similitude OF

IS The Statesman predicted the other
d@, when it gave the rules governing the
collection of the income tax, litigation has
already opened up against the enforcement
Of the law. Mr.. Moore of New York. as
attorney for J. S. Miller, filed a suit in
he United States district court, asking
for restraining order against the colec-
tors of the income tax.
One of the main points he relies upon
is that since Mr.. Miller is member of
several corporations coming under the op-
Grafton of the tax, and his income is large
ly over $4,000 that he would be compelled
to pay twice on the same excess of in
come over the $4000-once direct and
once through the corporations. There are
other grounds fully set forth in our Wash,
ington dispatches published yesterday
AS we feared and predicted the incom4
tax will be a prolific source of litigation.
Its feature of operating against certain
class, or of class legislation, will be fully
tested before tie c0urto, and there are
many other minor features of the tax to
which litigants will make objection.

claiming exemption, and where they are
not confined in their operations specifcal-

This construction of the law by the treas

legal cor ,rovprsy.

the first day of July, 1895, and if not
paid at that time the penalties for non
payment will be enforced. The manner
of appeal from deputy collector is first
to the collector, and if not satisfied with
his ruling then to the collector of inter-
nal revenue.

Mr.. Fieldner's bill for the prevention OF
extortion by sleeping car companies il
very timely and proper. 1t is high time
that law preventing sleeping cars from
charging anything but for lodging was
on the statute books. AS it is, a traveller
on car has to pay fare to the railroad
company and under the present system
he has to pay part fare and for lodging
to the sleeping car companies. Mr.. Field
ner's bill provides that sleeping car COM
panies shall not charge more than half
cent mile for lower berths and one-t third
cent mile for upper berths. 1t further
provides that but half cent per mile
shall be charged for a seat.

Every fellow when he wants to slide
gracefully into the Populist party declares
he is standing by" the principles of JEFF
terson. In the debate in the house of re-
representatives. the other day on the cur
rency bill, the erstwhile psuedo Demo
crat, Bryan of Nebraska, said: 81 am
not ashamed to say stand by Thomas
Jefferson and not Grover Cleveland" We
thought some time ago that Bryan's nell
dacity would grow to such proportions
that he would not be ashamed to say any
thing whether it was true or false. When
fellow loses shame for lying, there is
not much hope for him.

wild enthusiasm of Nicaragua walker"

wild enthusiasm of Nicaragua Walker"
the gray eyed man of destiny.
And yet Mr.. Gallinger manifested all
that enthusiasm in the house of represent
atives the other day in presenting his
resolution inviting the annexation of Can
ada to the United States. Mr. Gallinger
attached great Importance to the resolu-
ton, because, as he asserted, it had been
drawn by one of the best known subjects
of Great Britain. From the Importance
Mr.. Gallinger attached to this fact one
might be led to think he re-
ferred to Mr.. Gladstone him
self. On the contrary, such disoyalty
as that displayed by a subject of the
''t hit little island" should prejudice his
+, olution. A subject of Great Britain
V o would give aid and encouragement
~ 4 foreign country to wrench from it's
side one of its most valuable provinces
must have a nefarious and selfish design
at heart
But nevertheless since the filibusterins
spirit has moved from the South to the
ANOilu, lue duNcISe spirit Ol acquiring
more domain has also changed locality
from the North to the South. In 1914
the North opposed the annexation of Tex
as, when Texas was thoroughly an Amer
lean republic, and there were then some
strong arguments made against the terri.
torial enlargement of the United States.
which would apply with much force to
the annexation of Canada. There are,
too, other potent reasons against any such
scheme Canada is not homogeneous in its
traditions with the United States, and if
it was annexed the difficulty of adopting
our form of government to the Canadians
would be almost insurmountable. But the
greatest impeachment in the way of such
thing, if it was desirable, would be the
fact that it would involve the United
States in war with England. That of
itself ought to settle the question and con-
sign Mr.. Gallinger's resolution to the
pigeon hole in the desk of the committee
on oreign affairs, to which it was re-
ferred.

Congressman Boutelle, the blatant
noisy fellow from way up in Maine, has
raised old Harry by claiming that he, as
navigator of the federal gunboat Sassa
cus-sassy- cuss-directed the aforesaid
cussed boat in ramming the Confederate
ironclad Albemarle, in the Albemarlc
sound, during the war. 1t is asserted
to the C n'rary that Admiral Roe, now
living in y aslington City, D. G., was in
command of the Sassacus and was at his
place on the wheelhOuse commanding her,
when she rammed the Albemarle and dis
abled her. The probability is all in favor
of Roe aud the claim of Boutelle is but
another evidence of his mendacity.

The New York World says that Gov
erner Flower of New York has deter
mined not to grant the Texas requisi
ton papers of the officials of the Stand
ard oil trusts on indictments found
against them for conspiracy under the
Texas antitrust law on the ground thst
it is not shown that they were ever n
Texas. The World adds that in a sin
liar case three years ago requisition "a
pers were granted by the governor of
New York. In November, 1891, |. b.
Duke and William A. Marburg of the
American Tobacco company-knowl as
the cigarette trust-were indicted Tor
conspiracy under the antitrust LAYS of
Texas, and although they fought Stra-
dition to the last ditch and in SITE of
the absence of proof that they eve were
in Texas, they were turned over the
sheriff and taken to Galveston They
pleaded guilty to the indictments gainst
them and were fined $3.50 each. Since
that conviction Texas has beenhe one
state in the Union where the Igarette
trust has not dared to carry on usiness.
This being a fact, it seems TIT Rookie
Teller has some pull on the gernor of
New York that Duke and hislssociates
did not have.
