GENERAL apathy in both the great parties over the national election is explained by the Chicago Tribune as due entirely to the gen. eral operation this year of the public primary election laws. which have been adopted in nearly all the states. Until the primary elections are held to settle local nominations political workeIs are too busy at. tending affairs at home to pay attention to national politics. When local nominations are made then the local worKers will be free to turn attention to whopping up things for the national ticket.

NOT q SEVERE TEST.

ton Is given by the newspapers to
 the tests of physical capacity pres crlbed to senior officers of the army
 by order of the President; and it is stated that Major General Fred
 erlck Dent Grant has refused the
 test, while the assertion Is made
 that with a hope of eliminating
 him from the service it is to be applied 10 Colonel w. F. Stewart who Is a persona non grata with the
 War Department. The test is an easy one, and an officer who can
 not take it is unfit for active ser
 vice. The officer taking the test
 must ride ninety miles within twenty-one hours time, but the time stipulated Is not continuous.
 He can have three days in which to accomplish the task. That is thirty miles per ,!ay, seven hours in the saddle each day. Four miles and one-half per hour. Any mn who is in reasonably good condition, at the age of General Grant or Colonel Stewart can do it. This assertion Is made, of course. with the proyiso that the route shall be over roads reasonably travelled. Over lofty mountains on steep trails the job cannot be done, for three miles an hour is good travel under such conditions. But upon the roads about New York, where General Grant would have to take the test, the stunt ought to be very easy; or over the roads between Forts Grant and Huachuca, in Arizona, where Col onel Stewart will ride, the specified distance and time can be negotiated within forty-eight hours. instead of seventy-two. THE OASIS editor will wager any amount that upon THE OASIS mule, of some note, he can accomplish the ride between Hun cbuca and Grant within the time specified, and within forty-eigbt hours; and with relays of riding animals he can make the ride in twenty-one hours without rest. And the editor IS of exactly the same age as General Grant and Colonel Stewart-ffty-ni years. Riding the same mule the editor rode from Realto to Minas Prietas 10i miles within thirty eight hours, and he rested twelve hours half way. On the first day he crossed a lofty mountain chain over an unused trail. Twenty-four hours were the time actually taken to travel the 104 miles, so it will be seen at glance that the ninety miles of the test ordered for army officers was made easily within twenty-one hours, and in but little more than one-half the time pres cribed for the officers.

Stock in Private Corporations.
There is another class of property
that under our present laws largely
escapes assessment, and that is stock
in private corporations.
Section 517 p S. provides:
Returns by officers. The cashiers
of banks organized under the laws of
this state or of the United States,
and the executive officers, by what.
ever name called, of steamboat and
transportation companies, trust COM
pauies, moneyed and other corporal
ions, except railroad corporations,
whether taxable under this chapter
or otherwise, shall annually, on or be-
fore the fifteenth day Of April, trans
nit TO the clerk of each town In which
shareholders in such corporations re-
side, list of the names of such share
holder, with the number OF shares
standing in the name of each on the
first day of April and the amount paid
in on each share. and shall, in like
manner, transmit to the clerk of the
town where the corporation has its
principal place of business, a list of
all the shareholders of such corpora
ton with the number of shares stand
ing in the name of each and the
amount paid in on each share"
Bank officials we think universally
comply with this law. With this ex-
ception, it is more honored in the
breach than in the observance"
Many corporations make neither of
the returns required by this statute,
although the penalty for non-compli
ance is a fine of not more than five
thousand dollars
Your commission issued q circular
letter making inquiries of the corpor-
atoms Of this state, some ten hun
dred. and we received answers from
about four hundred, less than one
half of them. There was no law
compelling corporations 10 answer
our questions. and many Of them left
ur communications unnoticed, so that
we were unable to gather the Stats
tics as to their financial condition
which we desired We wish 70 ex-
press our appreciation however, of the
courtesy of those who did send in
complete answers. We are satisfied
that there are a considerable number
of corporations in the state whose
stock escapes taxation almost entire
ly because the executive officers do
not comply with the statute above
quoted and the listers in the various
towns have no knowledge who the
owners Of the stock are.

We couldn't-t would bankrupt u.s.
But we know the merits Of Kodol and we want
you to know
perfect dlgester must contain many ingred-

1t must be liquid, because all those ingred-

1t must be able TO digest any food or any

Kodol does that, even in glass test tube.

Kodol alone does all Of the work. 1t stops all

GENERAL DEBATE IN HOUSE
ALDRIcH BILL DENOUNCED IN

Washington, Feb. 26.-The climax of
general debate on the army appropria-
ton bill in the house came today when
Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania. recognized
as one of the foremost protectionists
of the country. delivered an exhaustive
speech in defense of the Republican
party and its policies. in which he up
held the principle of the protective
tariff system. and said that under II
the United States had become the
greatest of manufacturing nations. He
did not believe there was any necessi-
ty for tariff revision, but thought 1t
was we'll To recognize the claims of
those who think there should be some
alterations Whatever that revision
was. provided the Republicans were
successful at the next election, he as
sured his hearers. it would be in ac-
cordanee with the Republican theory
of protection to American industries
and the wages of American working
men.
The American tariff system was at
tackled by Mr. Houston OF Tennessee
who charged that the trusts owed their
being TO IL, and urged it's revision.
Other addresses were made by Mr.
Sherwood of Ohio in support of his
bill, and by Mr.. Boutell of Illinois, who
referred TO the fact that the gold in
the United States for the first time had
reached one thousand million dollars

WAR ON THE LITTLE BANKS
Los Angeles Clearing House Associa-
ton Looks Askance at the
Small Institutions.

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. ply the
terms of a resolution passed by the Los
Angeles clearing house association to-
day, before September l. 1908. twenty
seven banking houses now doing bust
ness in this city either must make
mergers among themselves, increase
their capital stock or go out of the
commercial line of business.
For many months conservative bank
ers in this city have looked askance at
the banking houses springing up in va
rious parts of. the city. including the
downtown section, with capital stock
not commensurate with what they con-
slider adequate protection for the de-
positors and for other banks forced to
do business with them.
This morniEg radical action was TAX
en- by the clearing house ASSOCIATE
1t was decided that after September l..
next, no bank having less than 5000. O00
paid up and unimpaired capital will be
recognized by the association or it's
members. There is little doubt that
this action will drive some of the
banks out of business unless they
merge or increase their capital stock.
