IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.
Which Means Thousands TO The State In
come.

State Auditor Lafollette has
prepared a circular letter which
he will send out to all corpora.
tions organized in this State,
which have their principal Office
nominally at Charleston, while
the business they conduct IS in
other States. informing them
that they must pay taxes in this
State upon all their property in
other States. including the full
amount Of their capital stock. A
great many corporations charter
cd in this State have a nominal
Office at Charleston. while their
business is in other States. This
is done in order to avoid paying
the extra charter tax, which is
$40 more on foreign corporations
THAT is, corporations with prin-
cipal offices in other States than
on home corporations. While
they have, by making their prin.
cipal Office here, avoided the
extra initial tax, they have made
themselves liable to pay taxes on
all their property, just as indi-
vidual citizens are required to
pay taxes.
The Auditor now proposes not
only to force them to pay their
taxes in the future. but to collect
delinquent taxes for five years
back. This will amount to humid
reds Of thousa ads of dollars.

The universal article Of diet in
that country. depended upon and
indispensable. is bread or bis.
cult. And to make the bread
and biscuit. either In the camp
or upon the trail, yeast cannot be
used-it must be baking powder;
and the powder manufactured by
the processes OF the Royal Bak.
ing Powder Company, miners
and prospectors have learned, is
the only one which will stand in
that peculiar climate Of cold and
dampness and raise the bread and
biscuit satisfactorily.
These facts are very important
for every one proposing TO go to
Alaska and the Yukon country
to know, for should he be per.
suaded by some outfitter to take
one Of the cheap brands Of bak-
ing powder, it will cost Just as
much to transport ii, and then
when he opens 1t for use, after
all his labor in packing it over
the long and difficult route, he
will find a solid caked mass or a
lot of spoiled powder, with no
strength and useless. Such q
mistake might lead to the most
serious results. Alaska is NO
place in which to experiment in
food, or try to economic with
your stomach. For use in such
a climate, and under the trying
and fatiguing conditions OF life
and labor in that country. every.
thing must be the best and most
useful. and above all it is impera.
tive that all food supplies shall
have perfect keeping qualities.
1t is absurd to convey oyer such
difficult and expensive routes an
article that will deteriorate in
transit, or that will be found
when required for use to have
lost a great part of its value.
There is no better guide to fol-
low in these matters than the
advice OF those who have gone
through similar experience. Mr..

little or no game to speak of in
this and adjoining counties, for
there are too many sportsmen
and too little protection to what
is left. One afternoon a few
weeks ago there being a light
six inch snow on the ground, |
went rabbit hunting with two
neighbor boys and in one hours
time we killed 16 rabbits without
a club, dog or gun, and never
had so much genuine sport for
so short a time in my life. Rab
bits increase very rapidly here
and one of the great winter sports
when there is enough snow on
the ground to impede their travel
is for a number of men and boys
armed with clubs alone and a
few boys to make it livelv for the
rabbits to surround a field and
kill all the rabbits in it and dur
ing the melee many a lsughable
accident happens. In one hunt
of this kind last winter near
Bently, this county, over one
thousand rabbits were killed.

That Chicago Platform upon
which Bryan ran for President and
which has been reahrmed this year
by western and southern demo-
Gratis in their conventions contains
the following language in its mon
ey plank ''And we demand that
all paper which is made y legal
tender for public and private debts,
or which is receivable for duties
to the United States shall be issu-
ed by the government of the Unit
ed States, and shall be redeemable
in coin" That was the language
that Disguised all true Populists
and Greenbackers who long since
have turned away from redemp-
ton money ideas. There is not q
Populist paper published in Amer
lea to-day that favors a redeemer
for money. There is not Popu-
list speaker who faV0rs it nor q
Populist voter who believes in it.
1t is q demo-republican idea as
stale as d last years market report
and as unsightly in the eyes of a
true Populist as am old reap hook
in a modern 40 acre wheat field.
III. Nj. Brooks says his Bible teach
es him that nothing but the damn
ed need redemption, and Brooks is
right.
Why should a good dollar be re-
deemed in coin ? Let some Acorn
reader answer this 2 And did not
the Supreme Court decide that the
Government can i'm time of peace
as we'll as in time of war, issue
treasury notes and make them .
full legal tender
Then why are our democratic
friends holding out the argument
that their platform embraces all
the reforms which we favor 2 Non
| sense.
Whenever the Populist party
fails to find itself at least twenty
| years ahead of the democratic par
ty in political science and the stud,
