DAWSON ON TAX LAWS.

Governor W. M. o. Dawson con-
tributes an interesting and instruc-
tive article to Coal, Pittsburg pull
LEGATION, dealing with the tax re-
form movement in an able manner
And in referring to the benefits of
the new tax laws, he says:
's'The new tax laws have already
vindicated themselves in the rcduc-
Tfonof taxes. The state tax this
wear is twenty cents, whereas here
tofore it has always been thirty-fiVe
cents on the 800 of valuation. The
new tax laws. strictly limit the eN-
penditure by counties, districts and
municipal corporations. 1t is con-
servative to say that out of every
one-hundred tax payers of the state,
ninety of them have had substantial
reductions in their taxes this year,
and next year, when the new laws
have gone fully into force, there
will be still greater reduction.
ct was certain, under the old
laws, that the great wealth of this
state contained in coal, oil and gas,
was not paving anything like Just
share of taxes. If this had not been
so patent, tax reform never would
have won against the tremendous or
ganization and the large expenditure
of money that opposed it. Tax re-
formers as they are called in this
state, are neither cranks, anarchists
nor haters of corporations. Every
member of the Tax Commission was
a large tax payer, a man of proper
J.. nd ,,,,nD.r tbp most conservative
in the state. A few of them were
corporation attorneys. One, the
largest farmer in the state, another
the largest individual tax payer in
the state. 1t is ridiculous to refer
to such men as Hubbard, Holt,
Davis, Thompson and Williams as
other than eminently conservative
citizens"

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge Of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children; It ruins childs DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is duo to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely nnf1t to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like hrebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency. 1.-THE blues" sleep
lcssness. and nervous irritability OF
women arise from some arrangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits OF depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, SO that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbid1y sensitive TO light and sound
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost

WEBB's QUEER DEATH
Developments in the Case of the Man
Found Frozen to Death at OskaIoosa
Make it Advisable to Hold an In

quest.
Special to Times Republican.
OsEaloosa, Feb. 3.--The body of the
old man, Robert Houston Webb. who
was found frozen to death about l: 30
o'clock p. M, Wednesday, in a field
near Muchakinock yards. was brought
to this city and cared for ut the un-
ger. The circumstances surrounding
the death of the old man make the
holding OF a coroner.s inquest neces-
sary. and the inquiry will be conduct
ed Saturday morning at the court
house.
The body was found near large
log in the field and that the tracks in
the locality indicated that the deceas-
ed had travelled around the log IN Il
circle time after time before he had
finally fell down exhausted and died.
The old man was supposed to have
been out all night Tuesday but the
tracks We're like those freshly made
and had they been made before We'd
nesday morning they would have
been covered with snow, for a fall
Of couple of inches OF snow occur
red between 1 and 5 o'clock on
Wednesday morning. Hence, 1T is
possible that the old man did not
start home at the time indicated, when
he left the wagon Tuesday afternoon.
No snow was found on the clothing
which fact indicates that he fell
where found after the snow had ceas-
ed falling early Wednesday morning.
1t Is said that the deceased was not
at the home of his brother, Samuel
Webb Tuesday night, and that no eff
fort was made to hunt for him.
| Another circumstance in connection
with the affair that is somewhat
strange is the fact that only the
hands and feet OF the corpse were
frozen when the body was found and
investigated The body and the
limbs were quite timber and only the
extremities were frozen. This fact
would indicate that the old man had
not been dead as long as had been
supposed.
Coroner Fiehlinger investigated the
home where the old man had lived
and found it so destitute that he
brought the body of the deceased to
OslIaloosa and placed 1t in his under
taking rooms. The funeral will be
held from this place Saturday after
noon at 1 o'clock. and interment
will be made in the Old cemetery.

Manson.
The Manson coal dealers have been
practically skunked in the coal bust
ness the past two months owing to
the fight that has been ON between
the dealers at knierim That town
has been advertising and selling Iowa
coal at 1910 and Illinois coal at $4.35,
below cost the dealers say at Manson
John Dieterick has been doing consid-
cradle business hauling coal from
hHleTlIH 10 CuSlollieiS az 1nshiiSoii' iiiebt>
ing a little over dollar a ton. The
Manson dealers refuse to demoralize
their business by going into a fight that
only concerns the dealers at Knierim.
In any event it has practically ruined
the business of the Manson dealers
as the farmers from the whole coun-
try go to Knierim for their coal and
while they are there they are
also doing other business, so it is
not only coal business that is hurt in
Manson by the coal fight at Knier1m
