TAXATION OF FARM PRODUCTS
SHOULD BE ABOLISHED.

The lack OF uniformity in regard to
the taxation of farm products in the
various states is another reason why
such taxation should be abolished. II
the farmers Of state in which these
products are taxed are selling in COM
petition with the farmers of other
states in which no tax of this kind is
imposed, the producer Of the taxed
articles is evidently at disadvantage.
While the difference may be small,
II is still handicap and may often
be the means of determining the pro-
-duction and sale Of certain products.

lNoUIsIToRS A SOCIAL CRIME.
Ohio and Iowa have long been the
home OF the tax ferret This plan Of
hiring an inquisitor on the commis-
sion basis to ferret out tax dodgers,
has accomplished some temporary
gains and produced some permanent
losses. Kansas has recently tried the
plan, where It has been pronounced
by capable observers "a social crime"
Tennessee is the youngest offender in
this tax lnquisitor system. Prof.

TOWN WIPED OFF THE Map
SUNDAY SELLING
Law OBJECTED TO
On Account Of Its Making a
Part Of Monday Some Of
Sunday and So On.


An undue hardship is inflicted by
the Sunday closing law to become ef-
fecttye May 2s many saloonists be-
lieye: They all express themselves
perfectly satisfied to have their
saloons closed Sundays so far as cell
ing or giving liquor away is concern
ed, but they complain against that
feature Of the law that undertakes
to convert part of Mondays into
Sundays,
The law Is Intended only to pro-
hihit the sale and giving liquor away
on Sunday but 1t states that saloons
shall not be open from Saturday mid
night until 5 o'clock Monday morn
ing and that none, not even the pro-
nrietor, shall enter saloons during
that time.
In most bars three to five hours
are devoted to cleant Z the saloon for
the next week. This will have to be
done after the saloons open Monday
mornings. This seems to be the
main objection and because the law
extends Sunday several hours, "a test
is soon to be made OF it in the courts.
Just where the test case will be
brought has not been announced but
1t is thought 1t will be in Wheeling.

IS to Be the Subject of a Spec
iaI Grand Jury's
Attention.

FAIRM0NT,. Apr. 15--IL Is re-
ported that Judge John w. Mason
has decided 10 have a special grand
jury Investigate the alleged election
frauds in the Fifth ward in Marion
county, and from what he said in
regard to tho matter yesterday after
noon the rumor is credited.
Judge Mason is known to have no
sympathy for men Of any party who
Violate the election laws and is said
to have been disappointed that no in
dictments were returned in similar
selection two years ago in which fraud
Us charged.
u this is true It Is likely that the
guilty parties will receive the punish
ment they deserve.
It was said last night that the re-
count for the senate in the Fifth
ward developed the fact that &c
votes which were cast for Rev. Archi-
bald Moore had been counted for
Meredith and Fleming.
Frauds said to have been discover
ed In the Fifth ward will lead to a
recount in the various precincts of
the county and It is possible that the
real result of Saturdays Republican
primary will not he known before the
end of the week.
The recount in the Fifth ward In
dicated that there had been all kinds
Of Juggling at the precinct. w. E.
,Arnett was forty or fifty votes shy
IN that ward from what he felt he
ought to get and the recount showed
that his suspicion in regard to crook
ed work were well founded. Some
Fleming votes were found which re-
duced Judge Meredith's majority to
46 and last night the changes in the
Fifth ward and other precincts made
, q. H. Brownfield 8 votes in the lead
for district committeeman.
It is thought there was crookedness
in the Fifth ward two years ago and
when 1t was concluded that the same
thing had been practiced this year the
better oloment OF the Republican
party was naturally Indignant.
Chairman Geo NJ. Jacobs and a
u. Lehman left town yesterday bu'
the report that there was something
doing in the political line which let

leave town was denied last night.
