ST. IGNACE, Mich, AIg- 25.-"Gen-"
J. S. Coxey, who. since he led his army

OF it while on a visit to the upper lake
country during the week.
His march of years ago was simply
designed to procure work for the I'M

roads and public Improvements. he ex-
plains. The main feature of his idea
now Is the State absorption and opera
tior Of railroads and other utilities
necessary TO the peoples welfare.
Would Buy Corporations.
Coxey's scheme provides for the pur-
chase of the holdings of great corpora
tions in a manner TO make special taxa
ton to that end unnecessary. This, he
claims, can be done by the issue OF
loug-term bonds on the credit of the
State. to run without interest, and to
be deposited with the Federal Govern
ment in return for an issue Of cur
rency to the face value Of the securities,
less ] per cent for the expense Of dota-
ton.
Further celebrating his plan, he pro-
VideS for the gradual abolition OF State
taxation. The loan from the National
Government is to be Hquidated from
the revenues accruing from the opera
ton OF the public utilities acquired. and
from this source also are 10 be paid the
running expenses of the State, there

roads and other public works. and the
purchase and operation OF street car
lines, water systems and lighting

CoXey declares the Administrations
policy Of controlling the big corpora
tons is doomed to fail. He calls il abb

latlng these great concerns when the
ownership rests with private interests.
He looks upon public ownership IS the
veritable salvation of the country, and
he Is convinced its adoption Is only a
question OF time.

ZION CITY TO BE SOLD.
Judge Lands OverruIes Objections Of
DoWle's Wife and Son.

Chicago, June 3--Overruling objec.
tions made by Mrs. Jane Dowie and
her son, Gladstone Dowie, Judge Ian
dis has entered an order granting
authority to John c. Hately, receiver
Of the Zion City property. to sell the
property. 1t is expected that the con-
tests OF Mrs. Dowie and her son will
be overcome by compromise soon and
that then the trust estate will be dis
posed OF to the creditors, almost all of
whom are connected with the church.
The order Of Judge Landis will, in
all probability. 1t is said, result in
the complete reorganization of the
estate and is expected by Deacon John
A. Lewis. named by Dowie as his sue
cessor and trustee OF the estate, to
result In the restoration Of peace
among the warning factions OF Zion,
the disruption Of which Deacon Lewis
lays to Overseer Voliva.
One Of the reasons assigned for the
urgency OF selling the property in the
receivers hands and bringing about a
reorganization Is that In the present
state Of disorganization the Zion City
property. including the industries OF
the city, Is deteriorating.
