yesterday replied to McMillan's letter.
The governor denies that he is waging
destructive warfare On certain forms
Of investment" and characterizes such
statement by the senator as presump-
ton and an insult to the people Of the
state. In response to McMillan's sug-
gestion for the appointment of COM
mission to investigate these subjects
the governor says: THE whole tenor
of Senator McMillan's letter indica es
that the old game to gain time en-
ployed for the past ten years is to be
worked again, II possible, and have this
vital question Of fair railroad taxation
postponed again until the peoples at
tention is diverted. Senator Mcmillan,
in his published letter, has not only
presumed to set his authority above
that of the governor and even the peo-
pie of the state, but above the courts
of Michigan. Delays of this sort mean
the pulling of millions of dollars out
of poor peoples pockets that ought to
be supplied for property taxes by the
rich railroad companies.
IF this legislature does not pass the
Gill that will be introduced we'll GER
tainly have a brand new legislature

There is not one portion of our organism
that is so overworked as the kidneys; on
them is placed the important function OF
filtering the blood of the impurities which
naturally form in the regular action of life
and digestion The kidneys are consequently
termed the sewerage of the system; clog up
this sewer, and the blood becomes tainted
with poisonous uric acid. which brings on
disease in many forms. The back is the first
to show this stoppage. From there comes
the warning note; it should be Needed and
the kidneys receive prompt attention.
Doan's Kidney Pills will right the action of
the kidneys quickly, relieve the back of pains
and aches and cure all troubles of the kid

Days Which VIII lie of General Interest
to Michigan People.
Detroit, March 21.-United States
Senators Mcmillan and Burrows have
replied to letters sent them by Gov
ernor Pingree, in which the influence
of the Michigan senators was solicited
in behalf of the governors bills to in
crease the taxation upon railroads. Sem
ator McMillan's letter admits the pos
sibility that railroads. telegraph COM
panies, etc., are not taxed in proportion
10 the property they own, but says 1t is
also possible that competition or legis-
lative enactment has so reduced the
rates charged fer public service that
the people receive the same benefits
more surely than they would through
increased taxation. Defining his posi-
ton Senator Mcmillan wrote: ANY
intelligent and well directed efforts to
bring about a readjustment of the
burdens of taxation will have my earn
est support; but 1 will not join in a
destructive warfare against certain
forms of investment. and by so doing
work the greatest injury to the state.
Proposes IA Committee of Inquiry.
1.-THE subject is not one to divide
political parties or to be used to make
political capital. If you desire to bring
about a real reform you will ask the
legislature for authority to appoint
commission to investigate the system
of taxation now in force in Michigan,
and to report to the next legislature
and to suggest such charges as seem
advisable in order. properly to ad-
just the burdens of taxation. Then
and then only will the Legislature have
the information necessary to rectify
and perfect the system. If you shall
see fit to use your influence to these
ends will be glad to cooperate in the
good work of reforming the tax system
of Michigan" Senator Burrows simply
states that he has no knowledge of the
proposed measures, but that the gen.
eral proposition that all individuals and
corporations should bear their just and
equitable share of the public burdens
does not admit of controversy and re-
ceives his support.
