ment i'm town these last thirteen years
for any charitable or benevolent pur-
pose that he has not assisted, and he
has spent days in working on pro-
grams of this sort where any other
man in town has spent hours; his
name has been on every subscription
paper that ever struck the streets,
and his money is invested in the car
riage works, i'm the gas company, in
the Riverside park, in the Marble
works. and in every other enterprise
that was ever started for the good of
the town; he has always stood up for
lola and tits one of the best advertis-
ed towns i'm the State for the reason
that scores Of the best papers quote
freely and frequently from the lola
REGISTER; he has printed columns OF
complimentary things about lola peO-
pie aud never line that w9s
mean or spiteful;-all these things are
true even if he does say it las perhaps
shouldn't So he doesn't see why
he should be abused as if he were a
public enemy. And then there are
the mayor and the city council. They
are all good men and they are spend.
ing lots of their time without any pay
in work for the good of the town. And
yet some thOughtless people criticise
Tn EN- and complain about them as il
tn ey were a set Of thieves in conspir-
acy against the general peace and
prosperity. That isn't right. These
M en- have a hard and thankless job
They are doing it to the very best of
their ability ami with entire honesty
of purpose. We ought to help them
in every way we can, and not stand
Off and abuse them. Just imagine
how much pleasanter the town would
be if every honest man in it spoke
well of every other honest man, and
there was never any mean or spiteful
or abusive talk.
lola is getting along all right. Rus-
in ess has been better here the past
three months than il has during the
CORES bonding three months for ten
years. The town is growing prettier
every year. The schools are getting
better. The churcues are increasing
their membership. We really have
mighty little TO grieve over or to COM
plain about. Let us simplp hang on
to the z oud things we have and get
rid OF the few bad things and all the
time, as cur little poem put it last
week, Ak eep a-goin' -, and we will
come out all right.

Two Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, III. was told by her doctors she
had consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles of DR..
Kings New Discovery completely
cured her and she says it saved her
life. MIR. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida
st. San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching consumpt-
ion, tried without result everything
else, then bought one bottle of DIR.
Kings New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. He is naturally
thankful. 1t is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the won
derful efficacy of this medicine for
coughs and colds. Sold at Evans

THE TAXATION QUESTION.
MORAN, Kans. June l, 18I

MORAN, hanS. June Il 1910.
ED. REGISTER Mr.. Cooks assess
ment figures in the REGISTER of May
81 are exactly in line with those 1 fur
nished You from Marmaton township
in 1890. AS you will see by reference
to your files for that year. And it is
very evident his motives in publish
ing those figures were the same as
mine for those given the public in
1890, i. e. to show the great injustice
of our present system of assessment.
A large share of this injustice is caus-
ed by the exemption of $780, on each
statement. Although this is law, it
is nevertheless unjust, as is almost
universally admitted even by those
who escape taxation under it. An
other source of injustice is the practice
of the assessors agreeing upon basis
of valuation below actual value. This
is not law and works as much hard
saip upon taxpayers as the exemption
law does. Assessing property at 60
per cent of actual value and giving an
exem ption of $4,000 really gives
1884 where the law says $500. The
last cause is easily removed. The
first can be by properly presenting
the matter TO the people. My answer
to your question, "How to make all
property bear its just burden of taxa
ton" is, repeal the exemption law;
assess all property at actual cash
value; deduct each mans indebted
ness, and the burden would rest
where it belongs and every one would
pay according TO the value of their
property. Nothing more, nothing
less. l think figures from all the
townships, along the line Mr.. Cook
has followed, together with sum-
ming up of totals for the whole coun-
ty, would be interesting reading for
the Taxpayers at least. Resp'ty,
J G.. STRONG.

ANnTnEI, mGuSHER -

Ifany additional evidence was need
ed to establish the fact that lola is
the center of the natural gas field in
Kansas, it was furnished this week
when the parties drilling a we'll for
Mr.. Northrup, under the supervision
of l.. G. Beatty, "struck gas" This
we'll is located a short distance east OF
the one heretofore drilled by the same
parties and is veritable "gusher,'
being equal if not superior TO the first
one, and establishes beyond doubt
that the supply of natural gas in lola
is unlimited.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the incan.
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gem
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and |
want 1t done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send

them what you want.

this line and have just received a lot of the

In the case of the sun we can zee, with
the aid Of the spectroscope, in about what
order some of the constituents of its shell
are placed, but we can only scratch the esur-
face Of the earth, and we know by direct
observation far less Of the order in which
the deeper parts of its crust are laid down.
Here, however, the study of the sun comes
In to help us in the study of the earth.
On the sun metallic elements abound un.
derneath the lighter substances forming
the upper or outer portions of its incandes-
cent shell. There is reason to think that a
similar order prevails in the crust Of the
earth, and that deep down beneath the sur
face, if we could penetrate there, we should
find Il much larger proportion of the heav-
Ter metals than we find near the surface. -
