THERE is trouble in Dickinson co,m-
ty between the city of Abilene and the
grangers. The city has, like many
other Kansas TOWNS, and also of its
own making, a debt under which it
fairly staegers, and casting about for
relief hit upon a plan that enabled ~
it's farmer friends to help out. The
city council levied an occupation tax
and every farmer who came into town
with a basket of eggs or Il bushel of
wheat was compelled to pay his Occu-
patton tax. Last week the farmers
held an indignation meeting, at which
over $40 were present, in spite of bad
roads and bad weather. They de-
nounced the passage of the ordinance
levying the tag and decided to boycott
the merchants of Abilene unless the
obnoxious measure was repealed.
