his tears. and there was a quayer in his voice

M'KINLEY'S WORDS.
His Message to the Ohio Legis-
lature Today.
Tax Legislation Proposed to
Make Burdens Lighter
NOT "A FAIR SHARE.
Corporations Do Not Bear Tax
alton They Ought,
But the Governor Doesn't Want
Capital Driven Out

COLUMBUS, o., JAN 1.-Governor Nc
Kinlcy today in his message to the legis-
lature says:
.Your honorable body meets at time
when the state is suffering from pro
longed industrial depression, for which.
unhappily, there appears no immediate
prospect Of relief. The people Will de-
mand that their representatives shall
practice economy in public expenditures
which necessity forces upon them in their
private expenditures
"a short session and but little legisla-
ton would be appreciated at a time like
this.
ssReal estate and other tangible prop
erty, now,' he said, ''pays the large share
of the taxes, while other varieties of
property which are intangible either
wholly escape or bear a disproportionate
share" He suggests that the tax com
mission which was appointed TO, and
which did make report, recently, upon
the subject of tax revision be continued
for such time as it may be deemed wise.
cit is a bipartisan body. It's report
shows that the burden is very unequally
distributed and inclines to the view that
corporations as a class do not bear their
fair share"
The governor warns against tax legIs-
lation framed so as to confiscate capital
or drive it out of the state.

An honest ignoramus in the judges
stand can do lots Of harm.
In the trotting business, as in all oth-
ers, ''time'' rights many things.
People often seem to forget that many
of the cheap prices realized for horses
today are for very cheap horses
At the present time it does not pay 20
breed inferior stock, and it is to be sins
cerely hoped that it never will again.
1t will not do to argue that because 8
trotter or PAGER is the best Of bis day the
man who drives him is also the best
driver.
Generally community that raises
good horses shows progress and intelli-
gence and viii almost surely become
prosperous.
1t is human nature to long for that
which the possessor values highly and is
reluctant to part with ia horselesh as in
all other things.
If you own q well bred stallion and in-

season. remembe that at q small cost
you can publish the fact.

this c0mmissi0n He was employed be-
cause Of lis executive and organ

employ two assistants before he would
agree to accept the position He has
never given detailed attention to the in

his assistants and has been able to ac-

If is presumed therefore, that the work
will be prosecuted as before, aud that the
increased time necessary to be given to
the affairs of the AtchisCn under re-
ceiver VIII not interfere with the govern

WAsHINeToN, D. G. Jan. LIT is gem
orally agreed among democratic senators
that the financial question viii be al

posed Of.
Senator VOORHEES, replied to a question
concerning his silver bill today, that no
effort whatever would be made to press
it until the tariff bill should he out Of
the way. Then, he said, the bill would
receive attention and he thought it
would prove the solution Of the problem.
III is known that the silver men, who
approved the bonds suggested by Secre-
tary Carlisle, will be prepared to use
vote for bonds against any man
who favors silver and to make the war
all the fercer on account Of the bonds.
Hence there need be no surprise if the
taking up Of the bond proposition may be
deferred SO long as TO render it impolitic
to take it up at all.
