Tax Bank Deposits?

Gov. La Toilette, in his message to
the legislature last winter, advised
the taxing OF bank deposits. This
item-money in bank lis listed under
the head of personal property The
amount of property listed for taxa
tion in this city is $749,873. of which
$1S4,631 is personal property. The
statement of the two banks Of the
city, made at the request Of the state
bank examiner at the close OF bush
ness Dec 10, shows that there was on
deposit in these two banks the sum OF
1921 900 Al, an amount Of money larg-
er by over 100000 than the value of
all the person al property on the tax
roll. How does that look on the face
of the returns? Does it intimate
that there is considerable amount
OF cash that doesn't figure to the sup
port Of the government on the tax
roll? Should this money be taxed?
Some of it probably should be; some
of it should not. In the first place
the money does not all belong 10 citi-
zens OF this city. 1t is probable that
such proportion Of the money on de-
posit belonging to citizens Of the city
as was subject to taxation at the time
Of assessment Of property was listed
by the assessor. The larger part OF
this money is probably not subject to
taxation, as may readily be seen. The
treasurers of the different towns,
the county and city treasurer, the
treasurers Of the school districts,
treasurers Of the benevolent, frater-
nal anC charitable institutions, treas
urers of cemeteries, churches, and
perhaps the holders of other funds
not subject to taxes, keep the moneys
belonging to the bodies which they
represent in bank. It will readily be
seen that the aggregate Of these de-
posits would comprise the larger part
Of the money in the banks.

as directed every ten minutes until he

How High Birds Fly.

A Strassburg aeronaut says he has
seen an eagle at the height of 5000
yards, and again a pair Of storks and a
buzzard 900 yards above the sea level.
On March 10, 1890, some aeronauts
observed lark flying at a height Of
1000 yards. On July IS, 1899, another
balloon met a couple Of crows at an
altitude Of 1,40O yards. These, how
ever, are exceptions. Birds are hardly
ever seen above a height Of 1000 yards;
even above 400 yards they are not fire.

The pacing habit is common among
animals, says a writer in Scribners
Magazine Many animals pace-cattle,
for instance. and, among dogs, settlers.
I believe pacing to be rather more
natural gait than trotting. Trottlng'
as it exists in our fast horses, is scarce
ly natural gait. but is rather the re-
suit of breeding and education.

of q despotic ruler who, as far as we
can Judge, is animated in his Irish pol
icy by the views of Il little gang of
anti-Irish absentee landlords who are
able as they choose to move the ma
chinery of Dublin Castle. In SOME
respects the political situation in Ire
land at this moment is absolutely
laughable. Consider what happened in
the last week or two. First of all the
landlords enter into What they call tire
Land Trust, to wage war upon the
National organization and upon the
tenant-farmers Of the country and
Immediately afterwards, hot-foot on
this act Of the landlords of the coun-
try, one Of their body comes forward
with proposal for an amicable con-
ference between the representatives of
these landlords and the tenants, in or
der to settle the veXed question of the
land by compromise (cheers), and the
next day after the mine counties are
proclaimed under the Coercion Act.
And then There is a further change.
The landlord convention met the other
day in a back room mere in the city
of Dublin, and they solemnly declared
that they would have no conference of
any sort or kind; they would not have
one word of conciliation, and they lit
orally danced upn those Of their mem
bcrs who had made the proposal. And
now within the last day on two a new

say that there is no portion of the So
