QUEER TAX QUESTION.
Does Failure to Pay It Keep Man Out
of Court

A case involving the occupation tax
of the city of Wellington was argued
in the supreme court Wednesday. 1t
comes up in a peculiar way. a farmer
several months ago bought a binder of
an implement dealer in Wellington, but
after testing it for a while and getting
his wheat crop pretty well harvested,
he brought it back and said he didn't
want it, refusing to pay for it Now
Wellington has an occupation tax or
dinance which provides that when a
merchant neglects the payn ent of his
occupation tax he has no standing in
courts and cannot bring a suit to col
lect money. The farmer discovered the
implement dealer had not paid his oc-
cupation tax, and when the dealer filed
a suit against him to collect the price
of the binder, the farmer raised the
point that as the dealer had not paid
his occupation tax he had no business
trying to sell implements and collecting
for them. Judge Mcbride in the Sum-
ner county district court upheld the
farmer. Then the dealer appealed to
the supreme court. He claims that the
state law authorizing the Wellington
ordinance is invalid; that a city can
force the payment of taxes by civil ac-
ton and by tax sales, but it cannot
deny an individual his rights in court
simply because he has not paid his
taxes.
Other towns have similar occupation
tax ordinances and the outcome of this
suit will be watched with interest

DIR. FISK ON EDUCATION
An Excellent Lecture by the Brilliant
Preacher.

'sWho's Who and Why?" is the dou-
BILE interrogatory under which Rev d.
NJ. Fisk until recently pastor of the
First Congregational church endeavored
to answer the question to what part
a college education plays in the make
up of the successful men and women of
the present hour. The lecture was de-
livered in DR.. Fisk's old church to an
auolence large but only half as big as
the production deserved.
From the point of popularity there is
the first strong recommendation to it
sonageS of the present tense, those who
today are taking a hand in the worlds
events, and that in it's scope it is linn
tied mainly to the United States. Among
the slides thrown on the screen there
are the likeneSSeS of a few Europeans,
but their appearance is only an Incl
dental matter and does not materially
strengthen the presentation of the sub
ject- The pictures are the latest that
has meant no small labor to DR.. Fisk
in the preparation of his lecture to per-
form this part as we'll as he has done.
1t is interesting to know that in doing
so he has Travelled extensively in the
eastern states and has met in a ajor-
ity of instances the people about whom
he talks. The likeness of John d. Rookie
Teller was not secured in this way, but
in a manner equally as difficult, for
Mr. Rockefeller never allows his pho
tograph to be sent outside of a small
circle of friends and the one which was
shown was obtained through the kind
ness of William r. Harper, president of
the University of Chicago. When Mr..
! Rockefeller's picture came on the

ANOTHER DANIELS.
Wyoming Authorities Think
There Are Two of Them.

Denver, Feb. 6.-The police authori-
ties of Cheyenne. Wyo., do not believe
that Benjamin Daniels. who served three
and one half years in the Wyoming PEN
itentiary charged with stealing govern
ment property from Camp Carlin ana
Fort Russell in 1879, is the same person
recently appointed by President Roose-
Welt to the marshalship of Arizona The
last heard of Daniels was from New
Mexico, where he was in the ranch bus
mess. This was within the last few
years. This Daniels had no middle mi
tial whereas the Arizona man is report
ed as having one. Friends of the Ari-
IONA Daniels living in Cripple Creeh,
who have known him for over 20 yea rs
deny emphatically that he has any pris-
on record.
