empted for the reason above stated.
On incomes not exceeding $4,000 the
tax Is 21-2 per cent; not exceeding
100000. 8 per cent; 100000, 312 per
cent; $4,000, 4 per cent; 100000. 5
per cent; on incomes exceeding $780,
900, per cent
From a practical standpoint, how
ever, it really makes little difference
what either the Cummins or Bailey
amendments provide. 1t is doubtful if
income tax legislation will become al
reality until there is a majority of
democrats in both houses to pass such
measure. The public may as well
understand from the outset the repub-
lican party proper has no intention
whatever of Incorporating an income
tax provision in the Payne bill.

SENATORIAL DECKS
CLEAR FOR ACTION

There is one move Senator Cummins
could make, however, that would de-
feat in the opinion of many, the eff
forts of Aldrich to prevent him from
winning the plaudits of the entire
west.
If. after seeing that he could not
succeed in having his income tax
amendment adopted, Senator Cummins
would induce his followers to vote for
the Bailey income tax amendment, it
is the opinion of many it might be
master stroke for the Iowa senator.
Whether he would do this is the
question. Some say he would and some
say he wouldn't.
The democrats VIII vote almost SOL
idlv for the Bailey income tax amend
ment. The democrats are in good faith
in their efforts to give the country
such a law, which would require the
rich to help bear their proportion Of
the expenses of the government and
tend to tighten the burden of the poor.
If the democrats can not have the
Bailey amendment passed at this ses-
sion they viii make income tax an is
sue in the next congressional cam
paign If Cummins and those progress
sive" senators cooperating with him
vote for the Bailey amendment, it will
become a law, as the democrats and
insurgents outnumber the stand
patters."
The only objection being urged to
the Cummins amendment is that, &C
cordng to its critics, it allows to es-
cape from taxation foreigners holding
stock in American corporations.
The Cummins amendment provides
that corporations shall not be taxed,
but that all stockholders whose in
comes from all sources exceed $4,000
shall be taxed. Senators Smith of
Michigan and Gaynor of Maryland
take the position that half the stock
in American corporations is held by
persons not legal residents of the
United States, and over whom an in
! come tax law would have no jurisdic-
ton Incomes of this class of persons,
it is claimed would go untaxed.
It is contended that the Bailey
amendment guards against this alleged
defect of the Cummins amendment by
providing for a per cent tax on all

corporations and individuals This pro-
vision would result in the taxing of
incomes of aliens by levying on the
incomes of the corporations in which
the aliens might hold stock. Senator
Cummins contends the Bailey amend
ment would result in double taxation
on the incomes of Americans, as a du-
ty would be levied on the income of
the corporation and again on the same
money as the income of the individual
stockholders.
Cummins believes his bill would
produce about $40,OO0,000, while Bail
ey's income tax would bring in about
$50 900 in revenue.
The Cummins amendment eXempts
incomes below $4,000 On incomes not
exceeding $4,000, a two per cent tax
is levied. This applies to the income Of
all individuals. generations being ex

Novel INQUIRIES.

Many novel inquiries are made of
the department of justice. The fol-
lowing from a commission house in
Willow Springs, Mo, was received the
other day:
can egg company has taken out Ii
cense in our city under the name of
United States Packing company. AS
they are using the name of the United
States in their company. I would like
to know if the government is back of
them and If l should sell them eggs, If
the government would stand good that

Here is another one, received in the
same mail from an anxious inquirer at
Frisco, New Mexico:

used Matched 1876 per cent of the eggs
and the hens 96.5 per cent.
But the most vital point is that the
chicks Matched out under hens weighed
heavied than those Matched in incuba-

chicks was but 10.S per cent. While the
mortality of incubator chicks was 33.5

greater gain in weight than incubator
Matched chicks whether brooded by
hens or brooders. All experiments
showed that the hen-hatched chick is

SlNALoA STATEMENTS.

Work at "La Prosperidad" the new American colony on the line of the railway some thirty miles below Culiacan, is being pushed apace in clearing the land and making preparation for cultivation. Some thirty of the colonists are there at work now, and when the rainy season has passed they will be joined by many of their asso- ciates from California.
 In the latter part of April the Sinaloa Land Go. commenced con- struction of a canal that will be fifteen miles long when com pleted, and will cover about 75,000 acres of fine land in the valley of the Culiacan river below the city of the same name. Of the fifteen miles to be built two and one half miles are completed already and it is anticipated that all will be fin ished with the dam by the begin ming of 1910. The intake and dam will be at a point on the north side of the river about 100 feet below the railway bridge at Culiacan, and as soon as the rainy season is over work will commence on the dam which will be completed by the time the canal is finished. The canal will be 8! meters deep, two metres wide at the bottom and six meters wide on top.
 MT. w. A. Butchart, from the City of Mexico, where he repre- sented the Sinaloa Land Company a number of years, has removed recently from the federal capital and has charge now of the land sales department of the same com. panY within the republic, with headquarters at Culiacan. About four weeks ago Mir. Butchart ar rived in Sinaloa with his lures anC penateS, and is located now in tht capital city.

In the United States the sales department is represented by Messrs. w. E. Wood, T. NJ. Farrand and c. w. Rhodes of Pasadena, California.
 During the past three or four months Sinaloa has been visited by Mir. F. M. Olmstead Photographic engineer for the Southern Pacific Company Consulting engineer also for the Richardson Construction Company who has made an ex- haustive study of the river system of the state, their flow, availability of conservation of their waters and their application to the irrigation of the great areas of rich and fertile lands embraced within the limits of the great literal that skirts the Gulf of California and Pacific Ocean the entire length of the state. In the work, which was done for the information of Mir. Hartman. Mir. Olmstead collected very great amount of interesting and accurate data that is reported to have led the gentleman to important and favorable con- clusions with regard to the future development of the great natural resources of Sinaloa.
