competition from Kentucky
mines, stopping at once the de-
velopment of our own coal beds.
We need not close our eyes to
the origin and purpose of this
measure. The st. Bernard mines
are operated by non-union labor.
They are owned by a corporation
organized under the laws of New
Jersey, and it is believed this tax
will close the st. Bernard mines.
The Evening Post is not oppos-
ed to union labor, but this prop
osition is an injury to organized
labor. 1t would not advance
wages, and it will not III any de-
gree strengthen the position of
organized miners. Not only would
it harm those directly employed
in coal mining, it would do vast
harm to labor employed in other
related callings. We do not be-
lleve that organized labor in any
of the branches should counte-
nance legislation of this kind ;
class legislation; special legisla-
tion, which will at once and to a
marvellous degree check the prog
ress of the State, and at the very
beginning of a new era of mate
rial development turn us back to
the old and barren fields. We
do not want to make a hermit
State of Kentucky; we do not
want to close our doors either to
labor or to capital from other
States. Louisville Evening Post.

One Feature Of the Revenue Bill.


levied and collected for public
purposes only. They shall be
uniform upon all property, sub
ject to taxation, within the terri
torial limits of the authority
levying the tax"
Any provision of any revenue
law violating these requirements
will be null and void.
In the new revenue law, page
79, section go, is the following:
"All corporations or associa-
tions not organized under the
laws of this State engaged in the
occupation or business in this
State Of owning or operating a
coal mine wherein camel coal,
bituminous coal, or other coal, is
mined and put on the market for
sale, shall pay to the Common
wealth of Kentucky a license
tax thereof as follows: For each
ton of coal of standard weight, 10
cents"
That is not revenue measure,
though it is in the heart of q rev.
enue bill; it is Il prohibitive
measure, forbidding any coal
company organized IN Illinois, or
New Jersey, or Connecticut, or
any other State, from owning or
operating a coal mine in Ken
lucky, and for their development
we need far more capital than
we have in this state. We are,
through the press, through the
Legislature, through the execu-
tive departments, and through
our commercial organizations,
striving to bring this foreign
capital to Kentucky.
Around Pineville there are ev-
licences of a new era Of develop
ment; around Middlesboro, in
the neighborhood of the Bird
Eye property, and in the west
ern field, there are numerous in
vestigators and prospectors, rep
resenting foreign investors and
companies, organized in other
States, who are coming to Ken
lucky to operate coal mines.
This movement means imuch
for the State, and..for all the cit
izens of the State. 1t means
traffic for the railroads and a
greater demand for labor on the
railroads. 1t means more mines,
and more labor at the mines and
more money for wages. 1t
means more coke ovens and more
iron furnaces, and after awhile
more rolling mills.
Yet it is proposed now by an
act Of the Legislature to stop all
this development, for a tax Of 10
cents a ton will close any mine
in America. This tax would
shut out of the State all compa-
MES organized anywhere but in
Kentucky, and it will prove dis
astrous to all concerned.
1t is plain that this provision
violates the sentences we have
quoted from Section I'll of the
State constitution. 1t has, we
believe, been declared that State
laws imposing burdens on inter
state commerce violate Article |,
Section 10, of the constitution of
the United States, and there are
other provisions of the Federal
constitution which could be in
voked; but the State should not
pass laws merely to involve men
engaged in business In endless
litigation. Corporations now here
with capital invested would have
to stay, and would test this act
in the courts, but no other com
panies would come here, and so,
by our own act, we would pro-
tect the mines of Pennsylvania,
West Virginia, Virginia, Tennes-
see, Indiana and Illinois from

ing for proposals and letting contracts
for the erection of wireless telegraphy
stations in Alaska was deeper than
the mere establishment Of prompt
communication in the far northwest
territory. The chief signal officer

onstration what system Of wireless
telegraphy was best suited for mill
tary use OF the FIVE proposals receiv-
ed, three were rejected as unsatisfac-
tory and two were accepted-those
submitted by agents of the Fessen-

sender company has been given the
contract for communicating over
water and the Marconi company the
contract for communicating over land.
General Greedy had intended that the
systems selected should undergo pre-

waved. General Greely himself wit

No doubt is felt by signal corps Of

suits can be obtained over land. II
the Marconi system demonstrates its

AS soon as the army appropriation
bill becomes a law Secretary Root
will take up the question of the or
ganization of the Army War college.
This college is to be established at
the Washington Barracks, District of

mediate direction of a board of five
Officers, two of whom will be Major
General s. B. NJ. Young and Brigadier
General w. II. Carter, and these ex-
officio members: Brigadier General
10. L. Gillespie, chief of engineers;
Brigadier General w. F. Randolph,
chief of artillery; Colonel A. l.. Mills,
superintendent of the West Point Mill
tary academy. and the commanding
officer OF the general service and stan
college at Fort Leavenworth. Secre-
tary Root is going to Europe in
August and General Young will leave
for Germany in the same month, so
mat it is not likely hat the War col
lege will be completely organized this
fall. A number of officers, however,
will be detailed to duty at the Wash.
ington barracks where they will take
under consideration plans which will
permit the most effective distribution
Of troops in time of war. Genera,
Young has been collecting a list OF
field Officers and captains which will
be the basis OF assignment to duty
here.
II is the purpose of the secretary OF
war to shortly convene a board Of offi-
GERS 10 select officers who have ex-
hibited superior capacity, application
and devotion to duty whose names
shall be placed on a register with Of
ficers who have specially distinguish
ed themselves by exceptionally meri-
torious service and officers reported
as doing specially meritorious work in
the schools already organized. This
register viii be the basis Of selection
for details as stan officers, military
attaches and for special service requir-
ing a high degree of professional ca
pacity.
The recent reduction in the enlisted
strength OF the army will enable the
