BILLS PASSED YESTERDAY.

There is prospect of a beautiful
hight in the house when the Miller
express company bill comes before
that body for action, which it prob
ably will in the course of day or
two. And thereby hangs a tale.
Early in the session Representative

Grant county, and a Republican re-
former of great pretensions. intro
duced resolution demanding an
investigation into the matter of
charges for the carriage of express
matter. The resolution was adopt

delegating to the committee the au-
thority to demand papers, summon
witnesses and perform such other
acts of authority as seemed to them
wise and advisable.
The committee had several meet
ings, listened patiently to the ar
guments of aggrieved persons and
the briefs of counsel, and at last
submitted a report. 1t was the gem
of the session. According to it. the
express companies of the state

able system of government, and. in
short, approached about as near

committee had only found i'm it's in
dustrious search for evils in the sys-
tenn one instance in which an over
charge had been made, and in this
instance investigation disclosed the
fact that the shipper himself was to
blame, having boxed his consign-
ment in such clumsy manner as
to render it difficult of tyansporta-
ton. The report closed with a glow
ing tribute to the admirable system
in vogue in the express business,
and with tears of regret streaming
down their cheeks at the thought
that they had ever entertained a
harsh suspicion of these public ben
efactors, the members of the house
adopted the report of the commit
tee and proceeded with other bust
ness.
The cost of the investigation $50
far as the state was concerned) was
only $3.50, and Mr.. Foss was literally
congratulated upon having conduct
ed an investigation which was SO
ineXpensive-to the state.

the supreme court on the income tax
law, an extra session of congress

eral Moloney was much surprised at
that part of the decision which exempts
rents under the income tax. AS to the
section of the act relating to bonds
the attorney general rather expected
an adverse decision of the court on the
recent proposition as having been
taken on technicalities, which. he be-
1eVeS, will not stand the test of time
and cannot remain the permanent law
Of the land. On all other points the
government, he believes. has no serious
cause for complaint. 1t is unanimously
regretted that there was not a full
bench to hear. the case, and should
Justice Jackson resign, there is very
good reason to believe his successor
would almost certainly be favorable
to the law, in which event another test
case would very soon be brought to
the court for determination.

CUTS REVENUE HALF
Treasury Officials Much Dis
turbed by Supreme Court
Decision.
LANDLORDS A LARGE CLASS
Their Exemption Will Serious
ly Affect Receipts From
Large Cities.
LITIGATION WITHOUT END
Sure to Result Because Of the
Divided Condition Of the
Court.
LITIGATION WITHOUT END

WASHINGTON, Apru 81 he
treasury officials are greatly dis
turbed over the supreme courts de-
cision in the income tax case, and
while admitting that they have no
reliable data upon which to form
an accurate estima te, they express
the belief that the net result of
the decision will be a loss of at
least so per cent in the receipts from
incomes. In some cities the loss
will be far greater than in the city
of Washington, where the loss is
expected to reach rs per cent.
Washington, however, is ex-
ceptionally a renting city. The
proportion of rented houses in other
cities of the country also is very
large. In 1890 the rented houses in
New York city were nearly "a per
cent Of the whole. In Boston it was
81 per cent; in Brooklyn 81; in Gin
cinnati so and in Jersey City 81. In
the other large cities the percent
ages ranged down to Sc at Roches-
ter. In New York city there were
292, 1856 rented houses; in Philadel-
phia 157,S0S; in Chicago 156, 1856; in
Brooklyn 139,04O. The total num-
Der of rented houses in the United
States in 1890 was 1,120,4S7, which
during the last five years has I'M
doubtedly increased very material
ly. Dwelling houses, however, re-
present only a small part of the
capital invested in buildings of
every character which produce
ENORMOUS RENTALS.
Comparatively little was expected
from interest on state, county and
municipal bonds, but the total loss,
IT is thought, will not fall short of
Sl9'Veo,OoO, of S20,0O0,0G0, for the first
year, and this is expected to increase
IN succeeding years, should the law re-
main unrepealed. The loss of this
revenue, however, is not the only
cause of regret among the officials.
The fact that the court was evenly di-
Vided on the main constitutional ques-
ton, 1t is said, will result in almost
ENDLESS LITIGATION,
thus very materially adding to the ex-
pense of collecting the tax. Neverthe-
less the internal revenue officials will
proceed at once to prepare supple
mental regulations to conform to to-
days decision, and from now on until
next Monday, when the time ex-
pres within which returns may be
made, any returns in which incomes
from rents and bonds are deducted will
be. regarded as full compliance with
the law.
Persons who have already made their
returns and paid the tax will be adj
Vlsed of the change in the regulations,
and as soon as possible the proportion
ate amounts of tax paid by each one
on rents and bonds will be refunded to
them under the general law which
authorizes the commissioner of internal
revenue to-

Another argument for reform in our

courts last week. A person who had
been indicted for the illegal sale of beer
was put upon trial. 1t was clearly prov
en- by reputable witnesses that he was
guilty, and no defense whatever was Of

and it retired to deliberate. The next
morning the twelve men returned TO the
court room declaring that they were un.
able 10 agree upon verdict. They were
thereupon discharged. II is no secret
that eleven of these twelve jurors were in
favor OF bringing in verdict for convic-
tion, in accordance with the evidence and
in obedience to the oath they had taken
to fairly and impartally try the case, but
they were made impotent by the twelfth
juror who could not see his way clear 10

two-thirds vote TO return verdict is
needed. Failure in such cases should
not rest with one or even two or three

The market is full of cough mixtures,
but one trouble with the most of them is
that when they do little good the patient
has to take so much that he gets TO loathe
the taste. The Pineola Balsam is super
Tor to other cough remedies because it is
agreeable to the palate and its good eff
fects are immediate. In few DAYS an
ordinary cough is gone altogether. Bron-
chitIs and asthma are more stubborn, but
they too are cured by Ely's Pineola Bal
sam. A remedy worth trying. Twenty.
five cents is all it costs.

Somebody has started TO talk up the

up. Interest will be redoubled in a drive

where people live whom you know but
not their places of residence. An ex-
