1t is the contention of the express
and telegraph companies that the fore
going language is decisive in favor Of
the opinion that the law contemplates
with Indifference the contention of the
parties to a transaction requiring a
stamp as to which of them shall pay
the tax.
It has been said by some that it
makes little difference who actually
purchases and aff1xes the stamp. as
the burden in any event ultimately
must fall on the patrons of the COM
panies in the form of increased charges.
This is not necessarily so. The stamp
tax on kilograms is 1 cent The rate
for the shortest messages is 25 cents
1t is not certain. if the courts decide
that the companies must bear the tax,
that they will revise their schedules of
rates so as to shift on to the sender
a tax of cent on a message.

CAUGHT IN sFRocKEr WHEEL.
Salina Men Victims of Two Painful
Accidents.

Salina, July 15.-Guy Hammer, the IA
year-Old son of Rev. and Mrs. Jesse
Hammer, met with a painful accident in
Frank Whites bicycle shop by having
the second finger on his right hand
badly cut and mashed.
The accident happened in a very pc
culiar way. A bicycle that was being
repaired was standing upside down on
the floor, and as the workman gave one
of the wheels a rapid spin the machine
became unbalanced and almost fell
over Young Hammer, who was sitting
on box near by, reached to prevent
the bicycle from falling and got his
finger caught between the sprocket
wheel and chain. The speed at which
the wheel was going caused his finger
to be badly cut and mashed.
While visiting at Judge Lampkin's
farm in the county, Isaac Winchester,
who is visiting friends and relatives in
Salina and vicinity, stepped on the
tines of an inverted rake, the teeth go
ing clear through the foot.
He was brought to the city to the
residence of E. G. Dodds, on Gypsum
avenue, where a physician was sum-
moned to dress the wound, which is
quite painful and dangerous.
