was passed by the house and now goes
to the senate This bill provides for ex-
tending the limits about like the Smyer
bill. but eliminates the non-taXing fea-
ture.
Mr. Pitts of Perry wanted an investiga-
ton of an alleged cotton seed oil trust.
The bill providing for the manner of
assessing railroad property and that pro-
hibiting corporations from contributing
to the political parties passed.
The house also passed the Reynolds
vagrancy bill which was passed by the
senate. 1t was amended to make all pun
| ishment hard labor, eliminating the prison
feature.
The only interest In the morning ses-
sion Of the senate was the opposition
of Mr.. Leith to the revenue bill. The
bill was finally adopted with sewing ma
chine, lightning rod and stove agents
taxed 800 for each county and s25 for
each wagon Organ men were taxed 500
for each county when they had a place
of business Mr.. Leith objected, calling
this an unjust thing to the sewing ma
chine men, However, 1t passed with seven
votes against It,
Mr. Reynolds offered resolution to
have the members of all recess commits
sions paid the same. This was in view
of the fact that the code commission
had been set down for $40 a day and
the others 81.
1t was announced that the members Of
the recess commissions on the part of
the senate would be:
Code commssion-Lusk, Merritt and
Gardner.
Municipal Code Commission-Strother,
Gum and Teasley.
Fertilizer Trust Conmission-Leith and
Overton.
The conference report on the bill for
delinquent children was accepted and the
bill passed.
Those Amendments.
The governors amendment to house bill
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1907-03-07

No. 615 known as the charter fee bill,
spoken of elsewhere. is as follows:
Amend section 1 by striking out the
provisions exempting foreign money
lenders from the operation of the bill
The amendment is the same as was add
yocated on the floor of the senate by
Senator Reynolds last week and opposed
by Senator Teasley, and at that time the
senate by an overwhelming vote agreed
with Senator Teasley. They reversed their
action today, however, and placed for
egn money lenders under the operation
of the bill by adopting the governor
amendment
The change in house bill No. 2i5, the
University appropriation amendment, sug-
gested by the governor. is that no money
shall TO paid out under the bill till the
University board of trustees make requi-
sition for 1t, and state that they are
ready to use 1t. This will leave a large
part of this money In the state treasury
till 1t is needed and not put 1t In the
hands of the treasurer Of the university
for sometime to come.
The amendment was concurred in.
The governors amendment to house
bill No. 769, known as the tax commits
sion BILL relates to the clause of the bill
requiring any person, firm or corporation
to tell the tax commission what they
owe and other details of their business
This provision was regarded as inquisl-
torial and was opposed In the senate
committee by Senator Reynolds. The
senate, however, passed the bill as 1t
came from the house, but the gov
ernor adopted the recommendation of
Senator Reynolds and proposed the fol-
lowing amendment, which was adopted:
provided, where such person. firm or
corpora ton Is not engaged in a busi-
ness which Is subject to a tax on their
gross receipts or on the capital employed
by them in this state or to q tax on
their gross receipts or to a franchise
tax or a tax on intangible assets, said
commission shall not require informa-
ton as to liabilities. earnings, profits.
loss expenses or conduct of said bust
ness"
This amendment was adopted and makes
the bill much more acceptable to the
merchants of the state.
The amendment suggested by the gov
ernor to house bill No. Gil known as the
franchise tax bill and relating to the tax
alton on capital employed by foreign
corporations In this state, was that each
foreign corporation doing business In this
state, shall pay an annual franchise tax
of % per cent on the first 800 employed
or used by them In this state and 5
per cent on all amounts between 500 and
$1,000, and lilo of / per cent on all re-
naming capital so employed in this state
over and above $1,000. The amendment
was adopted.

Mr.. Chas. Parkill is stopping at his
mothers, having been called from his
home at Helena, Mont, by the death of
his father, Nathan E. Parkill. The fu-
neral of Mr.. Parkill, which was post
poned to await the coming of his son,
was held at the local M. E. church on

Mir. Chas. Parkill went from his home
near 20 years ago. Helena was then in a
wild tract of country near the top of
Rocky Mountain, 1877 miles from a rail-
road, and society preserved mostly by
revolvers and bowie knives. He en-.
gagged in surveying for the first years, af-
terward owned and run milk ranch OF
80 cows, doing the milking and selling
all himself assisted by his wife. He dis
posed of the business last spring and re-
tired. He will return to his home before

by his mother, Mrs. Martha Parkill.

OLD FOLKS
Can Renew Their Strenatl

Can Renew Their Strength.
While it Is impossible for the aged to
renew their youth we want to say to all
elderly people in Middlebury that they
can renew their strength by taking our
delicious cod liver preparation, Vinol.
Vinol, being rich in the elements of
life, is an ideal strengthened and body
builder for old folks.
Mr.. A. j. Barker of Evansville Ind,
says: There is no other medicine in the
world equal to Vinol for elderly people
| would not take thousand dollars for
the good it has done me-"
Vinol is not a patent medicine. but a
real cod liver preparation made by a
scientific extractive and concentrating
process from fresh Gods livers combining
with peptonate- of-iron all the medicinal,
healing, bodybuilding elements of cod
liver oil, but no oil.
Vinol tones up the digestive organs,
makes rich red blood, and sound, steady
nerves. In this way it repairs worn
tissues, checks the natural decline of the
aged, builds up the run down, tired and
debilitated, and replaces weakness with
strength. We ask every aged or weak
person in Middlebury to try Vinol on ouI
offer to return money if it fails to give
satisfaction. milford r. Burt, Druggist
