REPRESENTATIVE GOLDSMITH DECLARES
 THAT NEW REVENUE ACT IS VICIOUS

nor justice in exempting any man from his just proportion of the burden of tax. ation, simply because he chooses to lend out his money on solvent security at good interest or to speculate in pig iron.
 T know there is class that would place the spirit of Mammon upon throne of gold and cruelty all who refused to exalt commerce above human liberties, or
 place justice beneath the almighty dol lar.' Yet. am persuaded that no Demo- cratic Legislature could possibly have enacted such a law had the individual

 real effect and practical working of the
 measure.

 MT. Goldsmith, who was in Montgomery yesterday, has announced his opposition to four features of the law. The illumi- hating oil clause, the witness certificate clause, the exemption of pig iron and the special mortgage tax he declares are His chief attack, however, is made on the mortgage tax subdivision of the act This, he declares. should have been en- titled An act to exempt money lenders from taxation and to place upon the bor- rowers of money an additional burden"

"Corianton" is the attraction an
nounced by Manager Hayward for the
latter part of the present week at
the Auditorium. 1t is a play treat
ing of the unusual theme of ancient
America, and is therefore a conspicu-
Gus novelty in the dramatic world.
The story is founded upon the folk
lore tradition that this country had
attained a high state of civilization
prior to the Christian era. "Corian-
ton" is described on the play bills
and the prophet"
1t is said to be a happy blending
of all of the best and most dramatic
elements in the Antony and Cleo

A mass meeting of the citizens of
Spokane will be called early in March
to begin active preparations for fit
ting celebration of the coming Fourth
of July Those who are chiefly inter
ested in the character of the program
that is to be arranged stated last
night that the sooner the matter was
taken up the better as the committee
in charge should be allowed ample
time to prepare the exercises Of the
day.
The main reason In my estima-
ton" said Dan Darling, for stirring
up interest now and for desiring to
call the mass meeting so early is be-
cause in order to make the celebra-
ton a telling success it is necessary
to begin advertising in outside towns
several months ahead.
AN effort will be made to have
the celebration confined to one day
instead of three, for experience has
proved that the latter method is far
from satisfactory. The three-day pro
gram was chiefly the cause of the
bitches which occurred last year.
1T is the committees desire to
render the coming Fourth one that
will always be remembered. In other
words, we wish to make it red hot
in every particular. Things should
never be done by halves, as has been
characteristic of the past We want
it brought out strikingly that we
shall leave no stone unturnad tO Sc
cure the services of the best orator
in the country. This is going to be
the main object, and no expense will
be spared to realize it."
