vanced Age.


Alma, Wis. Dec. 6.-Christian Kohl
heapp ST., aged 90 years, one of the old
est settlers in the county, died yesterday.

About five years ago Scharttle sold the
farm for $500. He was obliged to live

was sold for $500, cost him over $4,000.

TILLOTSON KNOCKED OUT.
Neenah Council Refuses to Grant Him
an Internrban Franchise.


Neenah, Wis, Dec. 6.-At meeting OF
the common council last evening the in
terurban franchise, so far as Tillotson
is concerned, was practically killed. The
members of the council who investigated
the proposed line were of the opinion that
Tillotson and the parties he represented
were not sincere in their intentions and
the whole matter was shelved. Another
proposition was presented by local peo-
pie, w. l.. Davis and Thomas Higgins,
asking that a franchise be granted them
similar to the one presented by Tillotson.
Mr. Higgins stated that if they were
granted the franchise asked for the road
would surely be completed and in opera
ton on or before September 1, 1895, as
they meant business. The proposed line
will run from Oak Hill cemetery to Brigh-
ton Beach, independent of the street rail
way now in operation. 1t is expected that
if the council grants an electric street
railway company franchise Messrs.
Davis and Higgins will be the favored
ones. The matter was referred to a
committee Of three who will report at
the next meeting Of the council

A TAX ONINCOMES.

Kok"mo Dispatch An income
tax IS the most equitable and Just
of all taxes levied
Sandersvilie [Ga.) Pee: A tax
on incomes is very popular mea-
sure with the masses, irrrsp, Give
If party lines.
Savannah Press: There is no
more reason why an inc rnp from
stocks should be taxed than an il
come from any source. Tax all in
comes above certain figure, no
matter how derived, or don't tax
any.
Atchiaon Patriot: An ireom'
tax is bur den, and it is relief.
A man who enjoys an income o!
$4,000 year ought to tie ready TO
help in saving the county. a man
with $500 year and ten children
has right to consideration and re
lief.
Atlanta Constitution: Tax irdi
vidual incomes along with the i :
comes OF the more powerful corp0-
rations. That is the democratic
policy. Compel the rich to pay
their fair proportion of tie tx
penses of the government that pr
tccts and -ourishes them.
St. Louis Posi-DispatcI': A tax
on incomes would be tax on the
profits of ali corporations, but :"
lax on the net profits of corpora
lions would not be tax on all III
comes. For this reason the former
ia the better. 1t is more conpre-
hensive and has no favor of dis
criminsticn.
Springfield Republican: Murat
IlaIstead is giving ont the claim
that an income tax would lie put
By the rich upon the poor in the
form Of increased rents, etc. He
ought to kuow that this tax, unlike
the present property taxes, Can not
he shifted. 1t stays right where it
is put, and that is one Of its vir-
tucs.
st. Louis Republican: An income
tax entails AS little of oppression
and as little of ipquisition as any
other. Every direct tax is disagree
able. 1t would be blessing if
tariff taxes came in more disagree
able form. Ii the people were
forced to realize the percentage OIL
incomes they pay every year there
would never be any billion dollar
congresses;
