who take their money abroad and
marry noblemen.
'On this matter of the immense ey-
portation of money from America to
Europe by means of heiresses, etc -
said Mr.. Morton, 81 have often be
lieved that some kind Of a tax should
be put upon 1t.

thought that q tax Of some kind
should be placed on the incomes
which American women carry to Eu
rope after their marriages to foreign
noblemen. Those good for nothing FL
lows marry American girls solely fol
their money and some taxation scheme
should be worked out to save at leas
portion Of this outgo. Besides, VIZ

An assessment of 100 per cent. on all
the stockholders OF the First National
hank. of Scotland, which closed its
dooss early in February last, has been
ordered by the comptroller of the cur
rency at Washington. Chas. c. King,
who recently was arrested in Chicago
and brought to Sioux Falls and lodged
in jail on serious charge preferred
by the government in connection with
the failure OF the hank, was president

degree, for unfortunately the bulk Of
the stock is held by parties who are
not financially responsible.
