Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin

by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

Washington, Nov. 12.-Eugene E
Prusslng. a Chicago lawyer, former
president of the Citizens association
there. called on the president yesteI-
day to present views on corporate re-
forms.
The president discussed with in
terest the brief statement which
Prussing submitted in part as fol-
lows:
THE change Of state banks and
trust companies to national banks,
which can be accomplished by a sin
gle amendment of the national bank
ing act and can be along state's
rights lines.
THE proposed change would give
the national banks two additional
powers and their consequences.
81. To accept and execute trusts.
by complying with general state laws
on that subject wherever they exist
and In the District of Columbia.
"2. To accept trust. savings and
time deposits, to keep separate ac-
counts of these, making Sroper rules
for notices of Withdrawals, to allow a
small percentage of reserves as to
these deposits. and also the making of
solid bond and mortgage and other
savings bank investments Of funds so
received
"Thus every national bank becomes
full competitor of state bank and
trust companies and soon the latter
will be forced to become national
banks.
GO at the general corporation
problem in a similar manner. Enlist

At the end of the interview the
president said: "And now, my dear
sir. want to pay compliment. I
did not expect you to give me a sin
gle thing. instead you have given me
several practicable suggestions, some
of which are entirely new. l shall
study them with pleasure. l may
say you will soon see them reflected

larger the percentage OF personally
than In the strictly urban counties:
Garrard county ....... 25 per cent
Allen county .......... 20 per cent
Marion county ........ 30.5 per cent
Adair county ......... 81 per cent
Knott county .......... 1886 per cent
Monroe county ........ SO per cent
Through the entire state the rule
generally holds and where the con.
trast is not so marked, the exceptions
will generally be found due to unus-
!ually high valuation of farm lands.
Who Pays the Freight
There is still another way of ascer-
tanning that the present system does
not make things easier for the farmer.
For the year 1906 the assessment Of
the state divides itself as follows:
Per Cent
rdrn lands .................... az
Farmers personally Give stock,
implements, etc) ........ IL
Moneys. etc, assessed to farmers 80
Total for farmers .......... 52.7
io"u Iots ................... 81. D
Town personality ....... 14.S|
Total town property ...... 47.3
In arriving at the percentage of
moneys. etc. set down as given in By
farmers for taxation. only that given
IN by counties having no town larger
than the sixth class is included, and
a small percentage of this character
OF personally given In by counties
having larger towns and yet distinctly
agricultural. The figures probably
are under, rather than over the mark.
Farm property, therefore, by a con-
servative estimate pays nearly SO per
cent OF the state taxes exclusive of
franchise taxes. while town property
pays only about AZ per cent. OF thu
state revenue collected by the sherius
OF the state from assessors lists. 43k
per cent is paid by farm lands, 30 per
cent by town lots, about az per cent
by money and securities. about ~
per cent by live stock and farmers
implements. etc, and per cent by
other personally. 1t is time the Ken.
lucky farmer realized that the present
system bears heavily upon him.
Equivalent to 10 Per Cent Income Tax |
The tax commission of the state OF |
California has this to say about the !
operation of the general property tax
on farmers In that state:
The taxes paid by farmers in Call |
fornia are equivalent to an income tax
OF 10 per cent This is in contrast |
TO many other industries; for exam. |
pie the taxes paid by manufacturers.
which amount only to per cent on
income. The persons engaged In |
agriculture. with an average yearly |
income OF about $500. pay $50 per
capita per annum in taxes. The per.
sons engaged in manufactures. with |
an average annual income of $3.50, |
pay $3.50 per capita per annum."
The California system here denounc.
ed Is the same that we have in Ken.
lucky, and from which the legislature
can AFFORD us no relief without a |
change Of the constitution.

School Supplies.

A citizen of Richmond who has had q
that the pupils in the public schools are
using only the very poorest materials
and tools, except in comparatively rare
Instances. He says. moreover. that tho
pupils are paying tho highest market
price for inferior articles. There Is but
one remede FOR this. in his view, md
that Is ii the hands OF the State Board
OF Education. That body has full au-
thority to decide 3ust what appliances
may be used in the public schools. and
our friend insists that II 1t would select
line OF SCHOOL appl!ances--a line of lead
pencils, pens. pads, etc.-ot proper
quality 1t Is certain that the makers o!
those articles would be willing to con-
tract with the board to sell the articles
TO the school children at reasonably low
prices-at prices, to say the least. which
would be far lower than tho children
are now paying for materials of inferior
quality.
It would seem that the argument II
favor Of {. single list Of textbooks. o!
the score OF economy, would apply will
equal force to tho purchase of schoo
supplies.
The suggestion appears to us TO b'
sensible, and we commend It to thu
Board OF Education.

The Proposed Electrical Plant,

rhe question of erecting municipal
electric plant in Richmond will come up
before the Council at its next meeting,
and we hope the matter will be disposed
of one way or the other.
The Passenger and Power Company
proposes to furnish the city with oil the
electric current it may need for lighting
and pumping purposes at n. cost as low as
the city could make 1t at q plant OF It's
own. tho price to be determined by three
3isinterested experts. The Council should
accept this offer to investigate ana let
the question of cost be settled before any
thing else is done. 1t is contended by
some that the purpose of the Passenger
and Power Company Is to delay matters
and that Il this offer IS accepted 1t could
dilly daily for a year or more. we know
nothing about the purposes OF the Pas-
senger and Power Company, hut 1t is very
easy for the Council to stipulate that the
investigation must be made and the re-
suit reported within thirty days or at the
outside. sixty days. we should think tHlr-
=. DAYS ample allowance for such work
With this report before 1t, the Council
could then determine whether it would
be expedlent TO erect q plant Of its own
or make ten-year contract with the Pas
senger and Power Company. For our part
We can see no sense in erecting a plant
when all the current needed for all city
purposes can be purchased from the Pas
senger ana Power Company as cheaply
as the city could make it. But whether
so or not. tho city would have all to
gain and nothing to lose by having the
whole subject thoroughly investigated by
board of electrical experts, and the cost
of erecting and operating the plant ac.
cura,ely determined in advance.
