TAX on COTTON BUYERS,
Auditor Henry Writes letter ant ays
Law Means to Tax Everybody En-
gagged in Buying Cotton

Replying TO query relative to the
cotton buyers privilege tax State Au-
ditor Henry today addressed a tax col
lector the following letter;
4 think the law clearly means to tax
every person engaged in actually buy
ing cotton. The phrase whether for
himself or as agent or employe Of an
other is susceptible Of no other mean
ing
Il do not think a, could employ B.
to buy cotton under AS license, B be-
fore buying cotton, should have a IL
cense in his own name. The object Of
the law was to prevent a firm Of buyers
from having agents in various parts Of
the state operating under the him's IL
ccnse
Only one municipality is allowed 10
tax them for the reason that if each vii
lage, town or city were permitted to as
sess them with fifty per cent. of the
State tax, the same would be prohib-
tive.

ID. Il. DOugan, of the United States
Coast and GeOdodic survey, with a
helper, are in the city this week. after
having been between here and the
headwaters of the Wisconsin river es
tablishing levels for two weeks. They
are looking for possible locations for
water power along the Wisconsin river,
and are estimating the amount of
water power that river can develop.
They report that there are several
places along the river where good
water power can be secured, the best
Of which is above Merrill, and is known
as Grandfather falls. Here it is esti
mated there can be 1000 horse power
secured. This would be the greatest
amount developed from any dam in
this state. The OR eatest amount de-
veloped now, is at the Consolidated
dam in uhis city.

FREE DELIVERY SERVICE

We received the following letter
from the post bffice department this
morning, Friday, relative to the free
delivery service for this city. The let.
ter explains itself. 1t reads:
'The report of the post office in.
spector who recently visited your city
to ascertain whether or not it was en-.
titled to free delivery, states that a
portion of the city is not provided with
good side walks. 1t will be impossi-
BILE, therefore, to order the establish
ment of the service till all the require
ments of the regulations have been
met"
While the inspector was here, we
understood him to remark that the
sidewalks had been put in on certain
streets that he had asked to have so
provided, and that all the work would
be far enough along by the time the
service was established, and we be-
lieve this was the substance Of his re-
port to the Department. We believe
this is simply a technical excuse to
delay matters, as the Department is
rather lOath to establish this service
in any city. The facts have been
presented to Congressman Brown.
who will take up the matter with the
Department, and we have confidence
that he will bring bout an early
Strengthening out of this matter.
