The Winthrop Street Universalist
church will be several hundred dollars
better off through the passage of the
law by the list Legislature eXempting
religious institutions from the collateral
inheritance tax. Hon. p. o. Vickery,
who died Nov 16, bequeathed $4,000 to
the church in trust, the income to be
used for the ordinary annual expenses
of that church. Under the old law
this sum, less $500, would be taxed 4
per cent. by the State, putting $3.50 into
the State treasury requests to religi-
Gus institutions being subject Ito the
collateral inheritance tax. The new
law approved March 26. referring to
collateral inheritance taxes, says.
''All such taxes heretofore assessed
or to be assessed upon legacies or be-
quests to religious institutions are
hereby abated." 1t is claimed by a
good authority that the clause which
abates all taxes heretofore assessed
upon legacies or requests to religious
institutions will require the return to
such institutions of all taxes heretofore
paid on requests in their favor. If so,
the State will be out very respectable
sum already turned into the state
treasury. The state, however. will get
1850 out of the Vickery estate, collateral
inheritance tax on requests to relatives.

COMMUNICATION FROM LEADING
DRUGGISTS.
o1er to Refund Money if Hyomei Does

oner to Refund Money if Hyomei Does
Not Cure Catarrh.
10 the Editor of the Kennebec Jour-
nal:
we nave been asked recently if the
advertisements printed in your col
umns regarding Hyomei were true.
where we offer to refund the money if
THIS treatment does not cure catarrh.
we wish you would please print this
letter In as conspicuous a place as
possible in your paper, saying that we
absolutely agree to refund the money
TO any purchaser of a Hyomei outfit,
IL IT does not cure catarrh. .,.,,.-.
This outfit consists of an inhaler of
convenient size to be carried in the
vest pocket so that the user can
breathe Hyomei air four or five times
daily. With this is included a medi-
cine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei.
The outfit sells for $1.00 and is a most
economical treatment, for the inhaler
lasts lifetime and there is enough
Hyomei for more than a months use,
while extra bottles can be obtained for
so cents.
We trust that this communication
will settle any doubts that NAV have
arisen as to our willingness to refund
the money for a Hyomei outfit, in case
the purchaser is not satisfied.
We wish to say emphatically that
our guarantee on Hyomei holds good,
and we will refund the money to any
dissatisfied purchaser who simply
states that he has used the treatment
according to directions and not been
helped.
Respectfully yours,

Grand total ....... 1885. 643.36 81, 90
The total tax assessed last year
amounted to the sum of 1886, S01.63 and
81, 500 for salaries and expenses of the
railroad commissioners, showing that
gain of $51 ,S41.73 has been made in the
excise tax and 5000 in the expenses Of
the commissioners.
It will be remembered, however, that
Is per cent. of the excise taxes upon
he Bangor & ArOOStoOk and the WASH
ngton County railroads are abated, in
accordance with the provisions of their
charters. Last year these attachments
amounted to $23,1S5.SS for the Bangor
& Aroostook and $1557.39 for the Wash
lngton County, total of 4.74327. This
year the attachments to be granted
these roads will be $30,SS3.66 for the
Bangor & Aroostook and $lS99.S7 for the
Washington County, a total of $751;
1888.
Last year, the Canadian Pacific failed
o pay the entire tax assessed. The
.omDany was assessed the sum OF $l5.-
l42.O2 as an excise tax. A controversy
,rose as to the basis to be used in the
assessment. Attorney General Seiders
rendered the opinion that the basis
;hould be upon the average income per
nile upon all the railroad lines of the
company; but the officials of the road
declared that the basis should either
BE upon the average income per mile
# the road located in the State OF
Maine. or should be based upon the
average income per mile over the en-
ire system. steamboat lines as well as
railroads. SO, for this reason, the COM
pany paid $4S0S50. leaving d balance
lnpaid of s1O,233.52. This sum has not
vet been paid. The same basis has
been used this year as last by the as
SCISSORS in laying the tax against the
company. 1t is understood that ar
rangements have been nearly COM
pleted for the institution of a friendly
suit in the courts to determine just
what the duties and powers OF the as
SCISSORS are in the premises. AS will be
seen by the above figures the tax
against the company has increased
materially over that of last year, which
is accounted for by a much larger vol
ume of business.
In fact, the tax assessed against
nearly all the roads shows that BUSH
ness was greater during the year end
ing June 30, 1902, than for the preced-
ing year.

RETIREMENT OF GENERAL MILES

In Washington. Throughout the
country, however, he Is unquestion-
ably popular and will be remember.
ed as man who got the thing done
he was sent to do. He was accused of
undue love of ostentation and of
thinking of himself more highly
than he ought to think As far as
the public knows these are the
heaviest counts against him. But
the public also knows he was a
brave soldier, risen from the ranks,
on account of meritorious conduct,
being promoted from lieutenant at
the age of twenty one to general OF
volunteers at the age of twenty FIVE
before he'w connected with the
Regulars" AS an Inaian fighter
he was among the best.
Happily for the country, If not
for the building of military repu.
tations, no great war has arisen In
the past thirty.eight years, and In
the small war we had Gen. Miles
appears to have been sighted. The
future historian may change, per-
haps, the judgment of the day, but
all citizens will accord him honor
and wish him the classical lease
with dignity" In his retirement.
