SENATE FILE NUMBER FOUR.

With singular ease and silence a
bill has passed the senate and is on
the house calendar proposing con-
stitutional amendment for the
aVowed purpose Of taxing those
elusive creatures, the sleeping car,
telegraph, telephone land other
companies. Mr.. Cant, with a frank
avowal of hardly creditable motives,
first drew attention to the bill and
stimulated curiosity about it. An
examination of the bill justifies the
statement of its introducer and pro-
moter, Senator Stevens, that cit was
drawn by some of the best lawyers
in the state" and does credit to their
skill in using language to conceal
thought, and, possibly, purpose. AS
a lucid expression of purpose it is
not so creditable.
Briefly, the bill proposes an amend
ment to the constitution that will
give to the legislature the exclusive
taxation of sleeping car, telephone.
telegraph, express, insurance and
boom companies and ship owners.
Down to line IL all is plain sailing.
Here it gets foggy. The bill con-
tinues the authority ito impose
taxes" upon the property in this
state Of all other companies and
corporations whatever, except rail-
road companies, which property. by

The Providence Journal prints three
solid columns of the names of deposit
tors in a single savings bank in that
city, who are credited with dividends
that will have to be turned over to
the state unless they are soon called
for by those who are entitled to them.
Presumably they belong to depositors
who have not been heard from of late
years, though it seems impossible that
so many hundreds of names of this
class Of people should be on the books
of a single savings bank.

Senator Allison is the latest promi-
nent politician to take refuge in that
cyclone cellar euphemistically called
"bimetallism by international agree
ment." From now on we may look
ITO see the possibilities of '96 flocking
to it in hot if undignified haste. 1t
is one of those ambiguous and in
definite expressions that politicians,
doubtful which way the wind is set
ting, so dearly love to use because
it means so much and so little, and
reads one way to one man and the
opposite to another. 1t is a platitude
borrowed from the lumber room of
the platform builders. No conjunc-
ton of nations can do what one alone
cannot do, and one alone can do what
all of them could. Any one nation
can utilize any suitable money metal
in its coinage by adjusting it to the
commercial ratios, and no nation or
congerie of nations can utilize it by
a false adjustment of ratios. There
are laws superior to the edicts Of one
or a combination Of nations. When
this fact is grasped all the intricacies
of this muddled question vanish like
the visions of a nightmare on waking.

The most beautiful spot in Muskegon is in

Hackley has been IL. the lumber business con-
tinuously since 1856, and in that time has

among the wealthy men of the nation. But
with wealth there did not come that tightening

marked characteristic of wealthy men.

pierced by stone walls emphasizing with their

its browning pride towering soldiers monu-

who died that the nation might live. Sur
rounding this park are the magnificent Hack

its $4,000 volumes, and the equally stately

children. Other elegant buildings testify like
