TAXATION or MORTGAGES.
Bill 10 Make Northeastern Capitalists
Pay Their Share.

JEFFERSON CRY, Mo-, Feb. L.
Senator Francis Wilson, OF Platte
county, introduced a joint and con-
current resolution In the Senate this
morning which lie Of far-reaching i'm
porbAnco. IN brief, it provides for
the assessment and taxation OF al
mortgages and deeds Of trust provided
for by law. The idea OF the Senator's
resolution is to bring under taxation
hundreds Of millions Of dollars worth
OF mortgages held by persons in othel
States, which now escape taxation, OF
the taxes upon which are now paid
by the persons who are in possession
Of the property mortgaged. II "An
owns a farm worth $4,000 and "B'l
holds a mortgage Of 5000 on it, under
Senator Wilson'S resolution @A'
would pay the tax upon the 5000
interest which be actually possesses
in the farm, and "Bn would pay the
taxes on the 5000 mortgage be holds.
II "An pays the taxes on both, the
amount Of the tax and the mortgage
lie credited to him against the mort
gage, and If "B" pays the tax on
both, the amount of the tax on the
farm lie added to the amount of the
mortgage. If "B" declines to pay
taxes on the mortgage, and cap does
not pay it, the amount of the tax is q
lien on the mortgage, which may be
sold to satisfy the lien.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters OF congratuis-

the merits OF Pe-ru-na as a catarrh
remedy r pouring in from every
State In the Union. DR.. Hartman
lie receiving hundreds Of such letters
daily. All classes write these letters,
from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor srti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the states
man, the preaeher-al agree thai Pc
ru-na lie the catarrh remedy OF the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing
catarrh as their greatest enemy, are
especially enthusiastic in their praise
and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only
absolute safeguard known. A cold lie
the beginning of eatarrh. To prevent
colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh
out Of it's victims. Pe-ru-na not only
cures catarrh, but prevents. Every
household should be supplied with
this great remedy for coughs, colds
and so forth.

sdmirer OF Pe-ru-na. He keeps il con-

made after the crop failures have FOL
the past two weeks been paid on Al
the rate Of $1,000 a day. For three
months last fall farm loans we're also
