pressed surprise that the Americans talked such
good English.
The most serious problem facing Liberia, is
the boundary dispute with the British colony
of Sierra Leone. The Liberians claim that the
latter government has taken possession of about
$50 square miles OF their most valuable, most
productive and most thckly populated territory
on the northwestern frontier Important trade
routes center and the British are building a
railroad into this strip which will deprive Liberia

COMPLAINED OF Low TAXES.

IT He Chicago Telephone Company is re-
n markabe corporation. Few corporations
wish to pay more taxes than they compelled
TO pay and many individuals as well as corpora
tons think it very shrewd if they can avoid their
share Of taxes Many a man who might have
flag pole on his house to show his patriotism
would not think it unpatriotic to pay less than his
share Of taxes for the support of the govern
mcnt.
The Chicago Telephone Company asked the
authorities to increase its taxes as 1t has about
S3,ooo,ooo more in property this year than
It had last year The assessors had made only
slight increase in the assessment, but the presi-
dent of the company appeared before them and
complained of the low assessment. He said that
he wanted the people of Chicago TO know that
the company was willing to pay its share OF the
tax burden and was honest about it.
If all persons and corporations were OF similar
mind there would be no trouble about an in
come tax One of the objections to such tax
most frequently heard is that our people are so
dishonest that they would defraud the govern
ment by making false returns if an income tax
were levied.

ANOTHER POLE CONTROVERSY.

V1ovER has controversy over the pole
- 1t is not the apex over which the Cook
Pcary controversy is now being waged, but just
the ordinary, everyday telephone pole that to
find which no scientific expedition is required.
Dovers town fathers have found the telephone
poles so easily and numerous at the Capital
that they incline TO the belief that the poles
should disappear from the horizon. The Town
Council directed that all wires be placed under
ground, but the telephone and telegraph COM
panies are reluctant to make this change be-
cause of the expense involved. The Town Coun-
Gil has not rescnded its action, and the outcome
OF the Councilmens dash for the poles is await
cd anXously by residents of the town. Dover
is one OF the pretticst towns OF the State. with
wide streets and beautiful lawns Its landscape
will be improved wonderfully by the new street
pavements noY being laid and it cannot be de-
MED that the removal of unsightly telephone or
telegraph po9s would improve the appearance
y Of Dover or Wilmington or any other town.
That the Dover controversy is acute may be
CLEANED from an editorial comment in the cur
rent issue of The State News, of Dover "rwo
men and crosscut saw will settle the telephone
war in a day. says that newspaper While this
procedure might bring the result, il is not the
most commendabc. The Town Council has am
pie authority and recourse to law to enforce the
removal of poles if it really has an earnest desire
to make such Improvements. The resort to
axes and saws does not SAVIOR of civic dignity,
and is productive of long-drawn legal compca-
tions.
The Street and Sewer Directors of Winning
ton now giving the pole question serious
consideration. During the past few years the
public service corporations in this city have dis
continued many poles because of wires being
placed in conduits, but there arc yet myrads of
telephone and telegraph and electric light poles
throughout the city. 1t is impossible in the
practical operation of these franchises to clmi-
nate all the poles, for they will be needed as
distribution centres, no matter If the wires are
placed underground but many poles that could
be dispensed with to the improvement of the
appearance OF the city are seen on all sides.
The Street and Sewer Directors are acting on
this theory. Unsightly poles have been remov-
ed from East Front street, and the directors have
gone so far as to announce that no permits for
the erection of poles will be given hereafter ex-
cept with reservation that they shall be re-
moved whenever ordered by the Street Depart
ment. This method with plan of requiring
different companies to string wires on the same
poles will do much to decrease the number of
these sky-towering sticks on city streets, but
the better plan would be to eliminate all the poles
except those absolutely needed as distributing
points.
