SAY, MERCHANT!
"Do You Carry Life Insurance
and Fire Insurance 2"

Then why should you or any
other merchant who insures his
life, his buildings and his stock OF
goods, neglecr to insure the safety
of the money which he spends his
life and sells his goods to get?
YOU WORK HARD, EARLY
AND LATE for the money that
comes over your counter in ex-
change for the goods you sell.
And yet you place that hard-earn-
ed money in a drawer unprotected
in any way against carelessness
and possible dishonesty.
A NATIONAL CASH REGIS
TER will prevent this for you. 1t
costs you nothing to call and in
vestigate.

MINNESOTA'S EXPERIENCE

Carl l.. Wallace, chairman of the
Tax Committee of the Minnesota
house of representatives, brings a tax
message to the people of Ohio. Mr..
Wallace had been in the forefront in
the campaign to secure the adoption
of constitutional amendment for
Minnesota, and, since it's adoption,
has been leader in the work of en-
acting laws under the provisions of
the amendment.
The amendment practically does for
Minnesota what the constitutional
amendment of 1903 (and which was
defeated) proposed for Ohio-permits
the classification of property for tax
alton.
Mr.. Wallace says:
In 1857 Minnesota was about to come
into the Union and the wise men were
gathered together in a constitutional
convention; they looked around and
about them and they saw that the latest,
most approved, up-to-date constitution
was the one that had been adopted by
the state OF Ohio In 1851, and they
reached out and gathered 1t In bodily.
Now, can't say here that one good turn
deserves another. because 1 don't think
Ohio did US good turn in that instance:
but at any rate, we copied Ohio, and
now for gracious sake, Ohio do turn
around and copy Minnesota by amending
your constitution on the subject of taxa
tion, as we have done.

GREAT YEAR FOR FLYING.

am more than pleased with the
aeronautic achievements of 1906 and
feel that Americans have outstripped
competitors in foreign lands, writes
Leo Stevens in the New York World.
Within one year the motor has grown
wonderfully, and we have now suffi-
fient power to drive giant craft.
Next year there will be three types OF
air machines-the aeroplane, the con-
trollable balloon and a combination Of
both.
believe that the machine with bal
loon attachment will be the most i'm
portant, while the lighter machines
will be utilized for pleasure and for
carrying light weights. Changes in the
balloon will not be many nor very sig
nificant. Doubtless the balloon will be
made to point more steadily and to cut
the winds with much greater resist
ance.
The experience of the better class of
aeronauts during the past season has
had the effect Of interesting many
wealthy men who are already prepar-
ing for flights next season. The gov
ernment is also planning tests during
1907. Army officers throughout the
United States are procuring their own
balloons for observation purposes and
getting accustomed to the new mode
of travel. The winning this year by an
American of the cup offered by France
has resulted in arrangements for a
great race In st. Louis during the COM
ing year, which will bring together the
greatest number of air travellers ever
seen at one time in the history of the
world.
Americans will see far more ascen-
sions next year in the United States by
all classes of machlnists than France
or any other country has ever known.
The day is not far distant when all
large American cities will have their
balloon factories, and air transporta-
ton will become as common as auto
mobile travel Is now

REPAIR THE STEET.

If Spring ever does come and the
streets get enough sunshine to dry
them, it will be we'll for the village
council to look after the condition of
Front street. The people have paid
a large sum of money to have the
street improved and, while the i'm
proyement has never been satisfac
tory, it neyerthe-less has cost too
much money to be neglected and al
lowed to become entirely ruined. A
little expense now will save much
greater expense year later. The
street is being badly cut and repairs
should be made at once and if
thoroughly rolled and then given a
dressing of crude oil much future ex-
pense will be saved and the road will
be preserved.
Don't delay. Get an action before
the street is entirely ruined.

LARGEST HIGH SCHOOL.


The largest high school in Ohio is
at Toledo. 1t has an enrolment at
present of 1900 pupils the largest in
Its history. Of this number 800 are
boys and 100 girls. Principal W. B.
Guitteau does not ascribe any reason
for the fact that there are more girls
than boys, but it is figured that boys
who would ordinarily attend school
are working in office buildings, stores
and workshops. The next largest
high school in Ohio is the Cleyeland
Genital high. In other cities there
are several district high schools, Of
which there are none in Toledo.

the corporation 1t must be equally clear
to us that the soundness or ,unsoundness
of the system of providing for the re-
ceipts and expenditures for state is
equally important to the growth and
proper development of any subdivision
of n state.
Every state in the Union is hard at
work on tax problems, and Ohio must
soon witness universal uprising against
a system, conced I'd by public writer's and
statesmen everywhere, to be as bad as
the worst.
we have in force in Ohio a tax system
which is but relic of the day when the
world was agricultural. The General
Property Tax was the first development
and at first served fairly well the de-
mands of the time. But history shows
that the General Property Tax decayed.
The whole world met the difficulties and
the system has been practically abol-
ished in other countries as being in no
way adequate to our present compli
Gated conditions The United States is
the only great nation that is today hold
ing out against the warnings of history,
but the day is slowly arriving when He
shall reconstruct our system. When that
time comes we shall take care to guard,
as far as possible, consistent with equity,
the principles outlined in this paper,
which are as unalterable as the rising
sun. There can be no doubt of the dis
astrous effects on the progress and pros
peritv of our whole state of our present
system of tax laws. Who, among us,
does not know that hundreds of millions
of capital have been taken away from
Ohio on account of oppressive tax laws?
Who is there who is not ready to believe
that as much more capital has been pre-
vented from locating here? What induce
ment is there for capitalists 70 come here
where they must Immediately begin Il
system of perjury and evasion in order
to secure what their conscience tells
them is but just? Plenty of capital
means increased prosperity; loss of capi-
tai means less activity in all lines A
great many men get along as best they
can, but as many more make their home
elsewhere who might otherwise be with
us Our tax laws are not adequate in
that they repel instead of attract cap
ital.
Tax laws should be framed with the
end in view to attract capital The in
terest of all classes throughout the state
is the same. The prosperity of the city
creates better market for the farmer;
the greater prosperity of the farmer in
creases the trade of the city Increased
activity brings larger business houses.
This means increased opportunities and
more wealth for all
LAS to what the remedy shall be is not
within the scope of this discussion. Let
us first be sure that we understand the
nature Of our troubles"

Jones, former chairman of the board
OF county commissioners and a promi.
nent ranchman of this vicinity. this
morning began sowing oats and wheat
on a tract of land plowed last fall.
The lane is in excellent condition and
Mr.. Jones informs your correspondent
that he expects a large return. He
advises fall blowing and early seeding
for this section, believing that crops
not liable to serious injury by frost will
to better If sown at this time.
Has Not Lost Any.
Mr.. Jones says his cattle have come
through the winter without loss of a
single head-"not even the customary
and minimum one per cent" he said
today. The grass is %springing up and
promises to be ahead of any spring for
some time. A ranchman who has re-

he has never seen a more promising
March for stockmen.

in their migrations, and seldom are
they caught by nature in her merry
pranks. There are other signs of re-
turning spring.

Country Districts Isolated.
Communication with the surround.

is impossible to reach many of the
points in or beyond the flooded dis.
