TIE Pennsylvania Legislature passed an alien tax law providing that all alien laborers over q years old shall pay a tax of 3 cents for every days labor, half the sum rais- ed by such taxation to go to the school fund, and half to the county in which 1t is collected. The pnr- pose Of the bill is to force aliens to take out naturalization papers, but 1t is quite plain that man who is coerced into citizenship will be of little value either to Pennsylvania or the country. The law, however will never be enforced for the req son that reputable lawyers hold that it is unconstitutional and oppres- sive.

These branches are from the re. serve buds, of which all trees have a great number at every portion of their surface.

these shares are 10 receive their value in
money, except J. Harry O'Neill the value OF
whose bequcst is to be paid 60 the American
Hand sewcd Shoe Company, or 80 much OF
the Same as may be required TO cancel
