Brilliant Record Of the Sixth United
States Infantry.

The one hundredth anniversary Of
he Sixth United States infantry was
recently celebrated at Fort William
Henry Harrison In Montana, and this
regiment has had history worth re.
calling 1t was organized in 1898,
made q brilliant record at Queenstown
Heights in Canada In October, 1912,
and occupied that early frontier which
Iowa was in 1919, and established the
hrst army post west Of the Missouri
river. The regiment had engagements
against the Indians in the west, and
later hard fighting In FLORIDA. II was
well represented in the war with Mexl-
co, and again In the Indian campaigns
along the border, which was then
steadily creeping westward In the
civil war the Sixth infantry took part
In many battles and incurred heavy
losses. After that war there was more
Indian fighting, and recent history has
included service by the regiment In
Cuba and two periods of duty in the
Philippines. The review of hundred
years proved to be of inspiring inter
est to those who now compose the
regiment.

FOUND BIG NUGGET OF GOLD,
Larger Than Mans FIst---Washed Out
of Old Placer.

A nugget OF gold weighing more
than FIVE pounds has been found in an
old placer in the Highland district by
John Kern, and has been deposited in
the bank of W. A. Clark & Co. in
Quite. says an Anaconda (Mont.) cor
respondent. It's exact weight is 60
ounces and II pennyweights. troy, and
II is probably the largest nugget ever
seen In Butte or mined near this city
1t is a beauty, larger than an ordinary
fist and OF irregular shape.
II was washed out one day last week
by Mr.. Kern on the site of the once "a
nous old town of Highland City, Is
or 20 miles south Of Butte in the old
Highland district. Mr.. Kern has been
residing In that district nearly 40 years
and has washed out a great quantity
OF gold In that time, but never enough
at any one time to make the recovery
remarkable, and the nugget which he
has just brought to Butte is the big
gest find he has ever made.
When II became known among the
old placer miners they visited the
Clark bank in numbers to see the pre-.
cious lump OF the real stuff. They
touched it tenderly, patted it admir-
ingly and lifted and weighed 1t envi.
ously. Men who have never seen gold
in its native purity also called to get a
peek at II.
Its value is $l,186.95.

CRobinsons History of Taxation, N.
H., Page $50
In addition to the criticisms we have
made upon the practical operation of
the Offset features of our present law,
1t is open to the further objection that
in principle 1t is absolutely indefensi-
BILE.
There is no good reason why Offset,
II allowed at ALL should not apply to
all taxable property. both real and per
sonal. II can only be justified upon
the theory that the taxpayer should
pay Oh his real worth, which is ascer-
tanned by deducting the debts he owes
from the value Of his property.
Governor Barstow. in his message
to the legislature In 1882 said, Offsets
should be abolished, or made uniform
upon every species of property;
in any event, justice demands that the
owners of real and personal property
should be put on the same basis of
equality"
II 1t should be urged that, with the
offset feature abolished. there are still
opportunities for fraud and conceal
ment under our present law, ii may be
said that no law has yet ever sue
ceeded in producing exact Justice and
uniformity in the distribution of the
burdens of taxation, but II all prop
erty is taxable. II will be the fault of
the listers if the tangible part of ties
capes.
We unanimously recommend that
the law allowing Offsets be repealed.

New Llaht on Pneumonia.

Before the Chicago Medical associa.
ton DR.. II. M. Fish has substituted a
new method of treating pneumonia,
which he says effects a sure cure In.
side Of "a hours He asserted that the
seat Of the trouble in pneumonia cases
is not in the lungs, as generally sup.
posed, but in the bony framework at
the top of the nose. The germ of pneu.
mococcus is harmless except when put
up in a cell Of this kind. Then 1t
acts like an explosive, expands and
poisons the blood. From these cells
the disease works rapidly down to the
lungs. but the fuel still comes from
the germ cells in the nose SO says
DR.. Fish, and adds that the remedy is
simply to draw the pus from the nose
cells. BY doing 80 he had cured one
OF the worst cases of pneumonia.
