three men, who afterward turned out
to be prohibition candidates to some
kind of a convention. At a little sta

COULDN'T DODGE THESE TAXES.
Births, Marriages and Deaths Once
Source of English Revenue.

Pleased with his mornings work
he had sworn off no less than $4,000
in taxes-the capitalist leaned back in
his chair, lighted a cigar and talked
agreeably.
"In the past" he said, governments
were wiser. They levied taxes that
could not be sworn off. There was,
for instance, the English birth tax of
the seventeenth century. A laborer
paid two shillings as birth tax; a duke
paid ego. You couldn't get round it.
'Burials were taxed, according to
the station of the dead, from a shilling
to 925. That, too, could not be
lodged.
Marriages we're taxed. A duke, to
marry, paid $50; a common person,
like yourself, paid half a crown.
In those days you paid a tax on
every servant, on your dog, on every
horse, on your carriage, your hearth,
your windows, watches, clocks, wigs,
hair powder, plate, ribbons, coal.

The claim now put out by Taft's
managers when subjected to re-
vision on account of inevitable
contests, do not indicate his NOM
ination on the frst ballot. but
they do to show that he will
be so far ahead of all the other
candidates that ID will be extreme
ly difficult If not impossible to
effect a combination against him.
If it were a distinct administra-
tien and anti = administration
fight such a thing might be pos
sible, but everyone knows that if

be nominated with q whoop.
