 Louisville, Ky, Oct. 1s-The recent campaign against Breckinridge has re- suited in more bloodshed. Buchanan Berry is thought to be dying at Turner, forty-four miles east of here, from a pis- tol wound in the stomach inflicted by C. B. James, foreman of construction employed by the railroad.
 The two were discussing Breckinridge yesterday and James said: "Breckin- ridge is a man I fought through the civil war with. He carried a Bible on one shoulder and lewd women on the other"
 This angered Berry, who was strong Breckinridge man, and he struck James on the left shoulder with a chair. James then drew a revolver and as Berry struck him again he fired. Wit nesses say James shot in self-defence. He is kept under guard at the hotel awaiting the result of Berry's wound James is from Alabama and cousin of Jesse James.

AND IT'S TRUE.
Kindly Comment on Mankato's Bust
ness Prosperity.

The last issue of the improvement
Bulletin, the well-knoWn Minneapolis
Trade paper, contains the following
kindly mention of Mankato's business
prosperity:
Minnesota is blessed with some
mighty enterprising cities, big and
little. Among those less in size but,
not less enterprising is Mankato 1t
is genuine pleasure to visit this busy
little Metropolis, as representative
of this paper did last week. Ii this
hard times epidemic has struck Man
katO at all, it must have been a very
gentle love tap. The traces of it are
hard to find now. The numerous firms
and individuals in the building trades
who were seen had nothing to say
about it or show for 1t. They all
seemed to be busy and clipper. The
architects have their hands and heads
full. Mankato, by the way, is coming
to be the recognized building trade
headquarters for a large section of
Southern Minnesota, one of the most
prosperous and progressive portions of
the northwest.

The Income Tax.

The Wilson bill imposes tax of two
per cent on incomes in excess of 1000.
1t is interesting, says the I11deT-Ap-
peal, to contrast this tax with that
which was originated and maintained
by republicans. In 1868, the income
tax was first levied. 1t began. at the
bottom with the man whose income
was above $12 week, and taxed him
per cent. 1t taxed all incomes above
$4,000 a year 5 per cent. Later on the
per cent rate was raised to per cent.
and the per cent to 10 per cent on all
incomes above $4,000. Finally in 1867,
it was changed to 5 per cent on all in
comes above $1,000 year. In 1871, six
years after the close of the war, it was
repealed. In the Senate the majority
was 1. Senators Sherman, Morton and
Howe, among the greatest of republi
can leaders, were the ablest champions
of the tax. What the Ohio Senator
will do now will hardly be consistent
with his views in years gone by when
he contended that "there never was so
just tax levied as the income tax''-
and that "a system of national taxation
which rests the whole burden on con-
sumption and not one cent on property
and income is intrinsically UNJUST
Senator Sherman, we should think,
would be embarrassed when he comes
to discuss the pending measure.
