Indebtedness Depends on Payment
of Tax.
Madison, Feb. IA.

What is considered by many as the
administration mortgage taxation bill
was introduced in the assembly last
night by Mr.. Cady, chairman of the jul
dietary committee. The bill will
doubtless be passed by the lower
house, but will meet with more oppo-
sition in the senate. The provisions
Oh the measure are substantially as
follows:
There shall be levied and paid for
use OF the state and at the proper
county or counties hereinafter provid-
ed upon all mortgages of real estate
heretofore or hereafter executed a
tax or one per centum per annum for
each dollar of Indebtedness which is
or under any contingency may be Sc
cured by mortgage. Such a tax shall
in all cases be paid by the MORTGAGE
and shall be computed as to mort
cages heretofore executed for the I'M
expired term of the mortgage. Execu-
tory contracts shall be deemed to be
mortgages for the purpose of this act.
All OF such mortgages and the bonds
or obligations secured thereby shall
be exempt from all other taxation.
No mortgage subject to tax shall
be made the basis of any legal action
Or be received as evidence unless the
proper stamps are affixed thereto and
cancelled by the recording officer of
The country.
THE tax imposed by this act shall
be paid to the recording officer to
whom the mortgage is first offered for
record. All mortgages shall be pre-
sented to the register of deeds of the
county in which the property mort
gagged is situated and the recording
officer shall upon payment of the tax
enter a statement of payment in the
book of mortgages and he shall affix
to the mortgage and cancel an adhes-
i've stamp denoting the amount so
paid, and the mortgage so recorded
may then be recorded in any other
county without payment of an addi-
tional tax
The bill provides that the secretary
of state shall provide the stamps and
furnish them to the register of deeds
of each county and they shall give
bond which the secretary shall ap-
prove for the proper accounting OF
all stamps delivered to them
The registers of deeds shall return
the money they receive from these
into the general fund of the state and
he shall turn one-third of the receipts
into the genral fund of the state and
two-thirds to the county in which
these stamps were sold. The secre-
tary of state shall report in January
the full amount he has received from
each county.

cation and that this answer was en-
tirely satisfactory "to our noble, gen.
erous and humane secretary of war"
He also criticised the president. Sen
ator Kean spoke on the statehood
bill for short time when he yielded
to various senators who INDUCED in
reference of the Mormon church in

Washington, Feb. 13.-Under the
operation of special order which cut
off the opportunity to offer amend
ments, the house after debate of an
hour today by a vote of 241 to 6
passed the Elkins bill to prohibit re-
bates to shippers. The six members
who voted against the bill were dem
ocrats. Mr. Littlefield of Maine was
present but did not vote on either the
rule or the bill. The democrats pro
tested against the rigorous terms of
the rule. The remainder of the ses-
sion was devoted to the sundry civil
appropriation bill, which was practi-
cally completed, but no effort was
made to pass it, as there was no
quorum present. The house adopted
an amendment to the bill appropriate
ing $4,000 for additional land for a
site of the government sanitarium for
disabled volunteer soldiers at Hot
Springs, S. d. An immense crowd
was attracted to the senate to hear
the invocation of Gen. William Booth,
founder and commander-in-chief of the
salvation army. Among the occu-
pants of the galleries were Booth
Tucker, general chief assistant and
son-in-law, and a large number of SAL
vationists. When the statehood bill
came up Senator Depew resumed his
remarks. He attacked the Mormon
church, because, he said, he believed
that it's members still cling to the
practice of polygamy. Senator Rawlins
replied, saying that if the Mormons
were not interfered with they would
work out their own destiny.
