SIT is mistake to advertise only at
intervals. The man who does this
loses the cumulative benefit Of publicity
His business name is not kept con.
sttutly before the public. He is virtu.

The Supreme Court has decided
against the Government on the ques-
tion of the tax on export bills OF lading
imposed by the War Revenue law, on
the ground that 1t imposes a tax on ex-
ports, thing strictly forbidden by the
Constitution. The decision, from which
two justices dissented, is considered OF
Importance, as throwing some light on
che probable attitude OF the court in
che Porto Ricau cases.

A Columbus paper says Toledo is not
q good place to hold the Democratic
State cenyention, because 1t is SO far
from the center of the State. The
reason assigned is poor one as every
body can easily reach Toledo by rail or
steamer. The only possible objection
TO Toledo. is the poor quality of the
water supply OF the city, but 80 long as
the Schmitt brewery continues to make
beer the convention visitors would have
no reason to fear any bad effects from
drinking water.

filtering out of household goods and
the lessening thereof Applied to the
multiform savings of the attic and cell
lar the sentence is literally true, for
no one, however courageous, can move
often and carry along the vast accum-

All the tenets of economy will arise

DISTURBING TAX ROLL.

The Norwegian storthing recently
passed bill which, having received
royal sanction, constitutes serious
menace to property owners in that
country. The bill provides for an eX-
tension of the municipal suffrage
granting to non-taxpayers the right to
vote. Under existing laws the munic-
ipal government are authorized to
levy limited tax on real estate and
net capital, besides an unlimited tax
on income. When the majority of the
taxpaying citizens have been voted
out of the municipal councils through
out the country the non-taxpayers
will have it in their power to levy
taxes and apply the funds thus raised
practically as they see fit.

THE GIRL WIN TEE HOE.

Adown through the Lone Star cotton
lands,
In the fields wherever 60
She is there, she is fair, she is every
where
The matchless girl with the hoel
And love to think as I ride the lanes,
And she leans on her hoe and looks,
OF the times gone by and the Muller
tale
That read in my childish books
"A form more fair and face more
sweet"
Are words that ever occur,
And again and over I find myself
Applying the line to her.
She may not see in the skies Of night
The things that a Lockyer sees;
She may be blank on Platos themes
AS she is on the Pleiades.
APut she plants the flowers in the old
home yard,
And not on the sands of Mars;
And she gives her love to the folks at
home,
While Tesla talks to the stars
A soldier brave in the bloodless war
That makes for the good of men.
She wields a weapon of higher worth
Than the man with the sword or the
pen.

GOLDEN AGE A NtYrH.

A certain popular conviction OF the
day ascribes to the condition of the
workman, urban or rural, constant
deterioration. His wages are held to
be declining and his comforts lessen
ing; his security of employment is de-
clared TO be less stable. and his eco
nomic freedom to be disappearing.
Growing out OF this conviction has
arisen the notion OF sort of golden
age somewhere back In the early days
OF the republican age when the work.
ere OF town and country enjoy life
OF almost idlyllic comfort and indie
pondenco, The mass OF testimony
however from the time OF Yorktown

uur FRE1eHrs THE THING.

about three-quarters of a railways
receipts come from the freight depart
ment The passenger department sup
plies nearly all the rest, the income
from mail, express and other privileges
being comparatively small Carrying
passengers is a simple matter, or would
be if state legislatures did not now
and then take hand in prescribing
added specifications for railway pas
senger service. In Ohio law was
passed decreeing that the height be-
tween the platform and the lowest
steps of passenger coaches should not
exceed twelve inches. This cost the
railroads. nearly one hundred thousand
dollars, and the reform led to the
abolition of a number of flag stops
where the passengers had been quite
willing to scramble up off the ballast.
Legislatures in the west have been
known to hamper and exasperate rail
way men apparently for the pure
pleasure of the art, a state Of things
that seems almost Uncomfortable in
some eastern states, where the legisla-
lures represent themselves. Compared
with the freight business the passengr
traffic presents few complications.
The great simplifying factor is that
passenger rates are stable, while
freight rates are not Passengers pay
a fixed rate per mile for transportation

tion. But the price of freight trans
portation varies according to the kind
of freight, and according to the size
OF the lot. 1t is curious to notice that
the freight trains, scarecrow process
sions of shameless packing cases on
wheels, Unfortunately squeaking
through our streets, are the ones that
really count when you come to make
up the profits. The magnificent trains
OF vestibuled Pullmans which glide
swiftly through the country on velvet
roadbeds make ten times the show
that their real value to the road war

reputable in appearance than the pro-
cession of battered freight cars that
jolts and creaks into the yard in the
sunny mist of a Sunday morning

pair Of brakemen trailing their legs
over the roof Yet the train is doing
something more than its share toward
keeping the line going. The two row.
dies on the roof are, after all, gilt
edge conductors in the making. 1t is
a democratic business. Freight brake

ductor to passenger conductor-that is
the order of promotion on most Ameri-
can roads. So the freight train man

To Catch Tax Dodgers.

Assemblymau Frost has introduced
bill in the Legislature to tax mort
cages, copied after the Massachusetts,
law, which has been in force for eigh-
teen years without amendment. If
the measure is passed it is believed
that it Will be the means of locating
much property Of this class which ha.
hitherto been in hiding and has es-
capped taxation, as one of its provls-
ion. is to tax only that portion of
real estate which is not covered by a.
mortgage, and to tax the mortgage
just as other property. The intent Of
the bill il to tax all mortgages equal
ly aud to make the borrower and
lender pay taxes according to their
holdings. Mr.. Frost in. preparing
the bill has been in close consultations
with the embers of the tax commits
sion; and the provisions of the meas
ure conform to the commissioners
ideas. The feeling prevails that the
bill, in some form or other, will be
passed Tho old mem bers in both
houses are in way familiar with
feel that it should become law
Sect on | taxes the mortgage in the
place where the land lies, and exemptS
like amount from the mort9agor's
tax on the land, Mr.. Frost holds
that the mortgagee and mortgagor
being in reality joint owners of the
property, it is right and just to tax
the equity of each. 1t is also proper
he adds, to tax it where located, rs
there it is protected. He believes
that this provision avoids double tax
alton, which must result where the
full value Of the land is assessed to
the mortgagor and the mortgagee is
also assessed the amount of the mort
gage, as our present law provides.
! Should the mortgagee fail to pay
| the tax assessed to him, section 3 pro-
vides that the mortgagor may protect
his title to the real estate by paying
! the tax himself, but the amounts SO
paid by the mortgagor shall be, in
the absence of an agreement to the
contrary, a lawful offset for interest
or principal due or to become due,
the holder Of the mortgage
j The other sections provide the
manner of listing mortgages, the tax
alton OF mortgaged properties, partl-
tion or divided, and the time when
! the bill shall take effect. Section 8
provides that the parties may stipulate,
in the mortgage who shall pay the
tax thereon.
