The Tax on Aliens.

10 is estimated that one of the laws
pas sed by the Legislature, and which
viii 90 into effect July 1st next, will
bring to the county treasury consider
nble revenue and may be the means
of partially solving a perplexing
question that has agitated the people
OF the state for some time, especially
iu the coal regions. 1t provides for
the levying of a tax of three cents a
day upon every alien male employed
iu Pennsylvania Under the terms of
the law employers are required to
deduct from the pay of such laborers
the amount of the tax and turn the
same over to the county treasurers,
and to submit to the County Com
nissioners quarterly reports. Failure
to make these reports is punishable
by heavy fines.

coal regions, where a larger number

visions of the law are employed than

productive Of good results, There is
nothing unjust in its provisions.
There is no good reason why every
man earning IA livelihood in this
country should not equally bear the
burden of taxation its enforcement
will enhance the value of citizenship,

treasures throughout the state.
There are hundreds working in and
about the mines in this county, com
peting with American citizens, who
pay nothing toward the support Of
the county.
The fact that the employer must
collect the tax and render a report as
to the number Of foreigners in their
employ, under heavy penalty for
violation Of the law, will cause those
who employ this class Of labor to
think seriously whether or not it
would be more profitable and conven-
lent for them to employ American

case in which Charles MoslIer, pres.-
dent Of the Gefunct Capital Nauona
bank, Of this city, figured to the cS-
tent of stealing something over Sl,0O0.-

His bank closed in 1891. Ten years
prior to that time the Capital Natonl
had been paying immense dividends
amounting in the aggregate to $500 Oo0
The stockholders We're mostly Illinois
people. Receiver HAYDEN, of the Mc-
sher bank, now has brought suit
against these stockholders to force
them to return the dividends paid by
Mosher, on the ground that they were
not earned, but were paid out of the
money of depositors. He says that the
books show that the bank never made
a dollar. Similar suit has just been de
cided here against a New York stock
holder, II. Ward Howard Of New York
eity who must return S2S coo paid him
m dividends by Mosher.
Mosher declares that the dividends
were earned, and that If the books do
not show it they have been mutilated
since he left the bank. The law is
clear that IL the dividends were un-
earned they must be returned to re-
imburse the depositors. Mosher is now
living in Chicago, It is said. in regal

ate way might be called kidney anuoyances,
but if they are neglected for any length Of
time the consequences assume a serious
nature This is demonstrated in the case of
Mrs Wolfe, for her heart became affected and
did not act properly. Kidney troubles pro

many other complications dropscal cOndi-

from Doan's Kidney Pills were just tho same
as everywhere they have been used. Mrs.

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys
is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So
the womb like the bladder was created for
one purpose, and if not doctored too much
is not liable to weakness or diseased except
in rare cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the b'odacr, therefore any pain
disease 'r ilcouyouience manifested in the
kidney back, bladder or urinary passage is
often by mistake attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort The
error is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. To find out correctly, set you
urine aside for twenty-four hours; a sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or bladder
trouble The mild and the extraordinary
effect of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root. the great
kidney liver and bladder remedy is soon
realized. If you need a medicine you should
