THE QUESTION OF TAXATION
National Grange For Tariff Revision
and Collateral Inheritance Tax.

National Grange For Tariff Revision
and Collateral Inheritance Tax.
The committee on taxation OF the
national grange submitted an extend
ed report at the recent meeting of the
national grange at Denver, in which
these recommendation were made:
That whenever any of our man
ufactories are using the tariff laws TO
enable them to sell their surplus prod
ucts in foreign markets ut less price
than they are sold at home, thereby
making our own people pay more for
their goods by reason of competition
being prohibited. we demand the re-
vision Of those laws along the lines
that will prevent such abuses. Under
present conditions IL is impossible TO
reach certain classes OF property for
taxable purposes, and under the laws
as they exist today hundreds of mil
lions OF dollars worth of property pay
virtually no tax at all; therefore. If 1t
cannot be done otherwise. we favor
changing the constitution Of the Unit
ed States in order that graduated J l.
come tax law may be enacted, which
we believe TO be one of the most just
and equitable of laws, as 1t enables Il
tax TO be placed upon property that en-
rely escapes at the present time.
We would advocate that all laws for
the assessment of taxes In all the

MiSSOURpS ATTORNEY GENERAL
WOULD DISSOLVE MERGER
OF GOULD ROADS.
usO SEEKS TO REVOKE CHARTERS
SUBSIDIARY CONCERNS ORGAN.
IZED BY RAILWAYS CON-
TRARY TO LAW.

St. Louis, Jan 10.-Suits to dissolve
the alleged merger of the Wabash,
Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain
Railway companies and the Pacific Ex-
press company and to revoke the IL
censes and charters ofkhe Pacific Ex-
press company, American Refrigerator
Transit company, Western Coal and
Mining company, Rich Hill Coal Min
ing company and Kansas Missouri Ele-
vator company have been filed in the
supreme court by Attorney General
Hadley.
The petition alleges the stocks of
the companies named are owned by
the same interests, the Goulds, in vio-
lation of the provisions of the constitu-
tion and laws of Missouri. Concern
ing the nature Of the suits Attorney
General Hadley said:
'These suits are brought for the
purpose of forcing a discontinuance of
the ownership of the stock of the Wa
bash, Missouri Pacific and Iron Noun
tain companies and the control of
these three companies, two of which
are paralleling and competing lines,
by the same interests and to force
discontinuance of the ownership of the
stock by these companies in the Pa
cific Express company, American Re-
frigerator-Transit company, Rich Hill
Coal Mining company, Western Coal
and Mining company and the Kansas
Missouri Elevator company. By this
stock ownership these roads have, in
fact, been engaging in business not
authorized by their charters and pro-
hibited by the constitution and laws
Of the state. The forfeiture Of the
charters Of the coal mining companies
and of the kansas-Missouri Elevator
company is prayed for, the license of
the Pacific Express company and the
American Refrigerator Transit COM
pany to do business in the state is
asked, but the forfeiture of the char
ters of the railroad companies is asked
for only In case they should fail to
discontinue, within definite time,
these usurpations, should the courts so
order. Illegal practices exist to a
greater or less extent In the case of a
number of other Missouri roads and
other suits will be begun as soon as
the work in my office will permit"
Chief Justice CAN'T of the supreme
court made quo warranto writs asked
by Attorney General Hadley return
able In the supreme court on Jan. %,
upon which day the defendants must
appear and make answer to the alle-
cations In Hadley's petition.

fiabit-fOrming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as TO many
Of the so-called patent medicines con.
taining injurious ingredients as broadly
published in some journals of more or
less influence, this publicity has certainly
been of great benefit in arousing needed
attention to this subject, 1t has, In .
considerable measure, resulted in the
most intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected of containing the injurious ingre-
dents complained OF. Recognizing this
fact some time ago, DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo,
were, and published broadcast all the
ingredients of which his popular medi-
cines are composed. Thus he has COM
pletely forestalled all harping critics and
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against his medicines, because they
are now OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper, it will be seen that
these medicines contain no alcohol or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the. roots OF
medicinal plants found growing in the
depths OF our American forests and Of
well recognized curative virtues.
Instead OF alcohol, which even In small
portions long continued, as In obstinate
cases of diseases, becomes highly objec-
tionable from its tendency to produce a
craving for stimulants, DIR. Pierce EN-.
ploys chemically pure, triple refined
glycerine, which of itself is valuable
remedy In many cases OF chronic diseases,
being a superior demulcent, antiseptic,
antiferment and supporting nutritive.
1t enhances the curative action of the
Golden Seal root, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark and Bloodroot, contained In
"Golden Medical Discovery" In all bron.
chial, throat and lung affections attended
with severe coughs. As will be seen from
the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover
Coe, of New York; Bartholow, Of Jeffer-
son Medical College, Phila.; Scudder, OF
Cincinnati Ellingwood, of Chicago
Hale, of Chicago, and others, who stand
as leaders in their several schools OF
practice, the foregoing agents are the
Uery best ingredients that DIR. Pierce
could have chosen to make up his fa-
nous Discovery for the cure OF not
only bronchial, throat and lung affec..
tions, but also of chronic catarrh In oil
its various forms wherever located.

Gladstone when the Liberals split on
this question. Mr.. Harcourt's wife is

about the only thing can see is
the fact that Mr.. Hadley failed to in
clude International and Great North
ern and the Texas and Pacific rail-
ways. He ought to have known these
were Gould interests also.
WELL" he continued, "Mr Hadley
may be right. He lives In Missouri,
the state where people have to be
shown. He will find that nearly all
the stock owned by the Pacific Ex-
press company and the coal mines
mentioned are not Gould interests"
He refused further to discuss the
suit and retired to confer with his
business associates.
