There are Bryan men among these

vania delegates will get away from
Mr.. Guffey. Maryland, Virginia,

against Bryan, and it is expected
that no instructions will be given

BEAVERS or THE CONVENTION

Boston wants to know why Tx
managers have arrange. for FIVE
days OF music for the Chicago con-
,vention and only three days of pray
err. The Herald of New York thinks
it is because at the end of three
days it will be plain to everyone that
the convention is past praying for.
1t may be the thought was that
after three days the whcie country
would be praying for the convention
to quit And then Denver. What
form OF prayer will be appropriate
for Denver? Mr.Bryan is church
man, but if Judge Parker rises in
belief that Mr.. Bryan knitted him all
through the campaign four years ago
what kind of a prayer would Mr.
Bryan offer if called upon?-Salt

ABOUT STATE TAXES.
Interesting Figures Compiled to How
Last Years Taxes Compare
With Former Years,

AAASV ACaSE 1uAS6 SUuIIDuEC
With Former Years.
Every once in awhile, some CAM
paigner has made reference to the
matter Of state taxes, those Of stall
writ persuasion arguing that the in
surgents have added considerably to
the tax rate Of former years, since
gressiyes have been in power.
This was important to the tax
payer If true, and not long ago a
certain individual interested himself
sufficiently in the matter to look up
the records and see no wthe thing
stood in Pennington county. The
results of his investigation were
turned over to The Union with the
request that we publish them, and
the table Is given herewith:
State taxes, 1903, $13,499.41;
1905. s12,5s1.O2; 1907, 311,046.52.
County taxes, 1908, s21,o55. 90;
1905, $4,000 SO; 19O7.59,123 .92.
School taxes, 1903, $35.875.14;
1905, 37,140.12; 1907, 43,s15. Al
City taxes, 1903. $9,566.4S; 1905
$s,o74.7o; 1907, 15,73s.4s.
Twine plant tax, Pennington coun,
ty proportion, $4,6O2.72.
From the above compilation, II
will be seen that the state taxes
have gone down, while at the same
time county. school and city take!
have expanded in 1907. The twin.
plant levy is itemized separately, al
the tax was ordered made by direc
vote of the people.

by Fish of the Indian School team

faction of his dusky supporters.
