TAXES VS.. PROFITS.

If anybody refuses still to acknowl-
edge eX- Governor Larrabee's assertion
that railroad rates are tax levied up
on the public let him witness the pro-
cess of increasing the levy which is
about to be made to overcome certain
deficiencies due to the slow business of
panicky times. In all other lines of
business there has been cessation of
operation in order to meet q decrease
In the volume of sales. Investors have
not dreamed OF making the profits that
they once did and each manager has
considered himself fortunate If he
could run his factory and play about
even this year. In every line prices
have sought lower level.
Not so with the railroad business.
We are told by the managers that the
tax levy must be increased or wages
of employees cut Even the federal gov
eminent has been willing to face a de-
felt without proposing a cut in wages
or an increase in tax levies. knowing
that when business prosperity returns
things will right themselves again.
1t remains only for the railroads In
the enjoyment of their taxing power,
which is not submitted for approval to
the vote of the people, to increase their
tax levies whenever dull times reduce
their volume Of business. II the profits
Of railroads are to be inviolable and
are to be guaranteed by the right to
increase the tax levy whenever busi-
ness gets dull let's put them in the
government bond class and call for a
reduction of their tax leyies When-
ever net income rises above two per
cent The argument which assumes the
right to tax the public with higher
rates whenever business falls off and
when almost every other industry on
earth is glad of the opportunity to
drift, will Justify the corollary that in
times of prosperity railroad incomes
should not be permitted to rise above
these of guaranteed securities. The
plea that they are entitled to the man
ufacturer's ten per cent in good times
and the right to raise rates when the
must suffer his lean year
Is one on q parity with the alternative
offered by the fellow who proposes that
Heads win, Tails you lose"

AUTOS AND ROAD TAKES.

LullOT
l see in your most priced daily paper
that there is to be held meeting in
Waterloo to talk good roads and to
help the public at large to go from
place to place over the different states
and towns. would like to say few
words in regard to this matter.
If it were not for the large auto
mobile manufacturing establishments
that sell their death cars, we would
not hear so much about the roads be-
ing impossible. The auto is driving
the farmers to send off to the mail or
der houses rather than expose their
families lives to the death car in going
to or coming from town. I ask once
public at large, the growth Of our
towns or the auto?
There is no farmer or laborer but is
willing to help build up our towns and
roads, but we do not care to give aid
to something that will bring death and
destruction to our families.
1 have been watching this road
problem and have not seen an
article printed yet where the COM
panies that make those cars have Of
fered to help build road. or person
owning one of the cars say he was
willing to pay a special tax for run
ming his auto They think the farmers
ought to do that. have lived in Iowa
since 1855 and I think that our roads
have kept pace with our improve
ments the state over, including our
schools and state buildings. Our heavy
taxes have driven many a family from
Iowa that would be here yet only for
high taxes.
Now shall we hold the people and
live a little economically, or is it best
to put more taxes on the people and
have them leave the state! We are
feeling 1t in our district schools.
Schools that had twenty and thirty
scholars are down to three and five
scholars. Our towns are not building
up as they should. Extravaganza
takes away more than it benefits. If
this little article is too small and of
little thought, cast it in the waste
basket. want to say your paper is
the best and cleanest of all the papers
ever had come into my family.

hand at ono of these progressive CO

What Is progressive conundrum,

Of vaudeville. The curiosity of those

this woman simply because she has
had notoriety in police circles, makes
a person tired Of the human race.

stunned the public eye.

IOWA OPINIONS AVID NOTES.

Saws the Pocahontas County Sun:
"a doctor few days ago said that
he had several cases where the pa
tients had all the symptoms OF ty-
phoid. He found that they had been
using water from tile ditch. There
is wide spread belief that the wa
ter from tile drains is the purest wa
ter that can be had. Nothing could be
farther from the facts. As a general
thing the water in tiles Is the most
impure. They drain the foulest and
nastiest places Imaginable and there is
nothing to purify the water. A shallow
well is bad enough but the water from
drains is much worse"

from native roots and herbs.
No other medicine has such .

Vegetable Compound.
For more than 3Oyears it has been
the standard remedy for feminine
ills. Inflammation, liberation, and
consequent Spinal Weakness.
Ithas relieved more cases Of Back
ache and Local Weaknesses than
any other one remedy. It dissolves
and expels tumors ID an early stage
Of development.
Irregularities and periodic pains,
Weakness Of the Stomach, Indiges-4
ton, Bloating, Nervous Prostitution,
Headache, General Debility, quickly
yield to It; also deranged organs,
causing pain, dragging sensations
and backache. Under all cdrculn-
stances it acts in harmony with the
female system.
It removes that wearing feeling,
extreme lassitude, don't care and

dizziness, faintnessr sleeplessnese,

5 KILLED WHEN
CAR HITS WAGON
Children FrightfuIIy MangIed,
but Woman Escapes by
Jumping
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

LOS ANGELES, July 5.-Four chill
dren and a man were killed instantly,
four other persons were seriously in
jured, and one woman escaped by jump
ing when the wagon in which they
were riding was struck and demolished
by a car on the Santa Ana line of the
Pacific electric railway early this
evening. The accident occurred at Lyn-
wood station, ten miles southeast OF
Los Angeles.
The dead are:
JOSEPH oLLER, driver of the wag-
on.
His two sons, Joseph, IA, and Thomas,
s. OF Linwood-
THEODORE KEUHNER, age 9, and
his sister Elsie, age s, of Los Angeles.
Peter Keuhner and three others OF
his children were cut and bruised His
wife, who leaped from the wagon, es-
capped injury.
The bodies of the children were
frightfully mangled, and it was with
difficulty that they were identified.
The Keuhners had gone to Linwood
for a day with the Oller family and
were on their way to board the car
that figured in the tragedy. Think
ing the swiftly moving car would stop
at the station, Oller drove across the
track directly in front of it
In another instant the vehicle was
tossed high in the air, several of the
occupants landed on the track, and
were run over. The horses were un-
injured --------- --------
