The town council at its meeting
Monday evening took decided step
in the right direction. Centre
Square has remained practically
treeless for 100 years, when, if some
interest had been manifested in
time past in planting out trees it
would now be a beautiful shaded
lawn and an adornment to the town
Council has now concluded to rectify
this neglect and will have planted a
suitable number Of trees which in
time will furnish shade and make
the Square an attractive spot. For
this act it will have the sincere
thanks Of our citizens and posterity
will rise up and call it blessed for its
public spirit.
It was also resolved by Council to
repair the sidewalks on the Square.
There are several places where after
a shower water stands and makes
pedestrianism unpleasant, This will
be remedied. Now that council has
taken this matter in hand every
property owner should in justice to
himself and the public, wherever
necessary, repair the walks so that
they will be free from mud puddles
and standing water, just a little
care in this matter and a trifling
expense will demonstrate spirit of
progress which will be heartily
commended and have its reward.
The matter ofplacing seats around
town and in the glen has been con-
sidered and will receive attention.
Steps have been taken to procure
seats and some will be placed at
convenient places for public use.
Every one should be interested in
their care and preservation, and see
that they are not dishgured or
wantonly or carelessly injured.

The able article elsewhere printed
on taxation in Pennsylvania is from
the pen of x, P. Huddy, Esq. 1t
shows how this, the foremost re.
publican state in the union, protects
and fosters the interests of her
citizens by relieving them of all
taxes to raise money for schools,
state, roads and expenses of the
state generally yaud places the burden
on corporations. This State is
pioneer in this form of taxation
which operates directly to the
benefit Of the farmer, by relieving
him from taxes. The state is gene
rous to the public school system, has
made large appropriations for road
purposes and gets all the money
from corporations. At the induction

THE STATES POWER TO TAX

CONTINUED from First Page)
on foreign held corporate bonds. This
statute was presented to the Supreme
Court of the United States for con,
sideration and in 1872 that court
decided that the statute was uncon-
stitutional. This decision, resulting
from Pennsylvania legislation has
had far reaching effect and is one
of the greatest decisions of the
highest court of our land concerning
the subject of taxation and the place
where property is taxable
Under an act passed in 1891 and
amended in 1926, Pennsylvania pro.
vided for the taxation of resident
bond holders of private corporations,
and made it the duty of the corpora
ton to assess and collect the tax for
the state This statute has many
times been upheld and construed by
the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
and may serve as model for
similar statutes to be enacted by
other states of the Union.
From an examination of the laws
passed by Pennsylvania and those of
the different states it is apparent
that no state has exhibited such
alertness aud has exercised its
powers to such a searching extent in
reference to taxation as Pennsyl-
vania. This is indicative of progress
in the administration of govern
mental functions and it shows that
the law making power of Pennsyl-
vania has kept pace with the many
business inventions of the age, COM
pelling them to contribute their just
proportion to the support of the
government which affords them pro-
lection in the carrying on of their
business enterprises.

with all the means within the limits
of the law of nations"
The proclamation briefly narrates
the recent negotiations, declaring the
integrity of Corea and, China to be es-
sential to permanent peace in the Far
East, and that Russia has disregarded
her pledges as to Manchuria. 1t
says Russia never met the
Japanese proposals in a spirit of con-
ciliation, and concludes:
I'VE cannot in the least admit that
Russia had from the first any serious
or genuine desire for peace. She re-
iected the proposals of our govern
ment. The safety of Corea was in dam
ger and the interests of our empire
were menaced. The guarantees for
the future which we failed to secure
by peaceful negotiations can only now
be obtained by an appeal to arms.
TT is our earnest wish that by the
LOYALTY and valor of our faithful sub
iects peace may soon be permanently
restored and the glory of our empire
preserved"

RUSSIA IS INDIGNANT
AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN.
Thinks That England Is Aiding the
Japanese.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 11.-Secretary
Hays note to the Powers has attract
ed much attention in diplomatic cir
cles here.
At the Foreign Office the Associated
Press learned that no response to the
note had been made, and it was con-
sidered extremely doubtful whether
Russia felt herself in a position to make
any declarations now, as these might
hamper her military operations. The
question was said to be one for the
military authorities to decide and the
representations of the Uniaed States
probably will be referred to Viceroy
Alexieff.
The following clause in Secretary
Hays note is considered here to be
Important:
60 - proposing joint representa-
tions to Russia and Japan to prevail
upon them to circumscribe the war
opinions as far as possible, with a view
to preventing disorders in China, which
might threaten international trade and
10 the preserving of the integrity of
China"
The prompt decision of the neutral
ity of the United States, although ex-
pected as matter of course. has made
a good impression here.
The bitterness against Great Britain,
already great during the negotiations
between Russia and Japan. is assum-
ing almost alarming proportions The
supposition that Great Britain evacu-
ated Wei-Hai-Wei to give Japan a
base whence to attack has called out
the deepest Indignation, which has
been still further infiamed by the pub
lication in Great Britain of blue
book on libel, containing the offensive
language Of Lord Lansdowne. Even
in less stirring times this would have
caused a public sensation.
