TAX COMMISSION

OLYMPIA, April 23.-The state
tax commission is mailing letters
to all the county assessors in the
state directing them to disregard
the act of the last session of the leg
islature, chapter 4S, laws 1907,
eXempting all moneys and credits
from taxation.
The letter is sent to the assessors
upon the advice of the attorney
general, who gave the commission
a voluntary opinion on the law and
instructed it to notify the asses
sors to disregard the act.
This chapter of the session laws
relates to exempting moneys and

bank examiners and will go i'll as
soon as the stockholders ratify the
contract. More than sixty nation
al banks have requested examlna-
ton and others have called stock
holders meetings to determine
the policy of the bank.
1t is predicted-by those in posi-
ton to know-that within short
time practically every bank in the
state will have taken advantage of
the insurance.
The Bank of Commerce, of
Shawnee, Okla, on the 10Th of
February, inserted the following
advertisement in local paper:

lection of the Depositors Guaranty

deposits have grown to be, s27O,-

An increase of 39,7SO.55.
No reason to worry.
What more do you want''
Who will say that the Oklahoma
plan is not succeeding? 1t has
been said that the banks would go
out of business rather than to incur
the risk of having to pay the de
positors of other banks. E.xper-
lence does not support this. The
state banks have come in, and the
national banks are trying to get
in, and deposits are all ready in
creasing. The people feel that
they have a safe place to deposit
their money.
The deposits are going to be
protected; the big bank will not
much longer be permitted to build
up a prestige at the risk of the
depositors of the country and the
welfare of each community.

WE are glad to know that our
readers are taking a Philosophical
view of the matter of squaring up
delinquency on The Dawn and get
ting on the right side of the ledger.
Each knows full we'll that we have
never refused credit and have at
all times been as liberal as possible
and had we not been forced into
doing so, no statements would have
been sent out, but as it now stands
every reader one year in arrears
was sent a statement of account
this week, and of course, the
reason for doing so is made plain
therein.
AS matter of fact only a small
percentage of Our subscribers are
in arrears and those that are in ar
rears are so because of oversight or
neglect, in neither case criminal
the great majority having put
themselves to the good on The
Dawn. We dislike very much to
be forced into sending out such
statements of account, but we
either had to do that or cut the
names off our list and we would
not cut the names off until we had
complied with requirements of the
law and gave each one that respect
due one man to another.

An Oklahoma Success.

The Oklahoma law providing
for the insurance of bank deposits
has been in operation less than
month but, so far, all indications
point to its success. Four hun

Gates being denied to twenty

The Postmaster General has issued an
edict that publishers Of newspapers may

subscription list to the new conditions.
BY this ruling it becomes necessary for US
10 settle with our subscribers and collect
that which is due US before we are called
upon by the Postal authorities 10 produce
our subscription. Each person owing US
can learn just the time they are paid to by
looking at the date set opposite their name
on the little red mail tab on The Dawn To
illustrate: II it reads like this:
JOHN JONES Fl Jan o.
you are in arrears four years and owe US
81. II is simple and easy TO figure out and
understand and il all in arrears will come
forward and Iiquidate and adjust their little
accounts they will confer favor by
so doing. We cannot afford TO print and
send you The Dawn twice week one year
lO4 papers, put one cent stamp on each
copy, all for 81, and will not do so. We
have no desire 10 buy subscribers, neither
will we do il. and we shall regret very much
10 have TO strike from our list even single
name. but we must live up 10 the postal laws
and regulations and urge each one in arrears
10 come forward and settle up soon.
The Ellensburg dawn. [volume] (Ellensburg, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1908-04-24

WANTS TO SHOW HIS KIDS.
Tar Heel Believes He Can Re-
cover From Crop Losses by
Sending Triplets to Fair.
Dispatch.

blopdICH.
A pathetic plea is made by a
North Carolinian for permission
to exhibit his triplets-two boys
and a girl-four years of age, at
the Virginia State Fair next
month. In his letter to General
Manager Lloyd he says that for
three years in succession his
crops have failed twice through
drought and this year by food,
and that he has met with other
reverses. The children are
handsome and sprightly, and he
dislikes the idea of making an
exhibition of them. but his pow
erty-stricken condition compels
him to lay all such repugnance
aside. Unfortunately, the State
Fair Association has no place
whe.e such a display of North
Caolina, products could be made,
but if there was a building on
the grounds adapted to the pur-
pose a successful baby show
might be conducted, as this ap-
plication from North Carolina is
not the first that has been re-
ceived for the privilege of put
ting infants and small children
on exhibition.
Several years ago a baby show
was conducted in Cincinnati
which was a memorable affair,
more than five hundred children
having been entered for compe'
tition. The cash premiums
amounting to 81, 200, and there
were many special prizes con
tributed by business men. Re
Gently the Presidents son-in-law
Representative Longworth, was
called upon to oficiate as judge
at a baby show in New Jersey
and he declared, after he wa
through with the arduous task
that it had been the most siren
uous undertaking of his life. Z
popularity of most baby show
is that the judges are usual,
bachelors.

Hypocrisy and Cheek.

Chatham Record.
The platform adopted by the
Republican State convention dis
plays most forcibly the "cheek"
of its trainers. It begins by ap-
pealing to the people of this
State to set the welfare of our
State apove party and above pre-
judice; to exercise their freedom
to vote according to the dictates
of conscience, and to choose
those men for public office whom
they deem best fitted to serve
the public interest" Now, is
not that rather cheeky for a
party that, when it had the
power, elected to office the most
INSCRIPTIONS set of men who
ever disgraced our State!
This platform also pledges the
Republican party against "the
injustice which permits the
wealthy corporations and indiyid-
uals to prey upon the poor" and
YET LlllS IS the same party that
enforces high protective tariff
law THAI Expresses the poor anc
enriches the wealthy! What
rank hypocrisy!
This remarkable platform alsc
denounces the Democratic party
for not keeping it's repeated
pledges to provide our Confed
} crate soldiers and widows will
5 suitable PENSIONS" when tn,
2 truth is that our last Democrat,
Legislature (which the Republi
l cans so much denounce) increas
ed our pension appropriations t,
four hundred thousand dollars
year, a sum four times as muc]
: as the pension appropriation
I made by the last Republica
: Legislature!

Fifty-Nine Years in Office.

d1lISDOrO observer.
Why, certainly, Mr.. John Laws
was re-nominated by the Demo
cratic county convention held on
Saturday, August 10Th, for regis
ter of deeds of Orange county,
and that, too, by reclamation and
without a dissenting vote. The
Democrats Of Orange have about
made up their minds that this
Office belongs to Mr.. Laws by
right of possession, and they are
going to continue to elect him as
long as he lives. Mr.. Laws re-
corded his first paper as public
register for Orange county in
August, 1849, SO years ago last
month. The Orange County OBJ
server will pay a handsome re-
ward for the names of any mar
ried couple who are now living in
this county or elsewhere, who
were married in Orange county,
and whose marriage license was
not issued by Mr.. John Laws.
