The seeIey Bill.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: The Seeley
bill exempting from taxation the
stocks and bonds in foreign corpora
tions held by Iowa persons is very
Just and creditable measure. There is
no logical excuse for the double taxa
ton which some of the states now i'm
pose upon values represented by stock
in corporations. Property that pays
tax in one state ought not to be sub
iect to a like tax in another state
where the owner of the property hap
pens to reside.

Trip the keokuk Motor Boat Club
Men Expect to Tack in Aug
ust, Covering 600
Miles.
THE SCENERY is GRAND
Trip Will be the Same as Taken
by the Peoria Yacht Club
During the Month Of
July.

Those who have not been over the
course cannot well appreciate the
trip that will be taken by the Keokuk
Motor boat club in August down the
Mississippi to the Illinois, thence up
that stream to Peoria and from the
Peoria races home by way of the Hen
nepin and Mississippi.
This cruise, stated by one of the
members of the Keokuk launch club,
will take all of twelve days and will
be one long to be remembered by
those who make it. During the entire
trip, the waters which are to be trans
Iversed are bordered on each side by
some of the most beautiful scenery in
the country, especially up the Illinois
river where on both sides the scenery
is grand, and of course as every river
man knows, the scenery between st.
Louis and Rock Island is such that can
not be surpassed any where for
grandeur and nature.
There are at present half dazen
launch men, locally, who have signif1ed
their intentions of making the trip as
a club from this city. 1t is the inten-
ton of club members to procure
good pilot who is familiar with both
the Illinois and Mississippi and can
pilot the Keokuk fleet through safely.
The Peoria boat club will make the
same trip in July leaving that city on
June Goth going to the Hennepin,
thence down the Mississippi and up
the Illinois and home. A number of
the boats from that city, or those that
so desire will go to ST Louis, accom-
Ipanying the st. Lotus Launchmen
home The distance from Grafton,
(mouth of the Illinois) to ST. Louis is
but forty miles. The St Louis
launchmen will accompany the Peori-
rms on the trip in July, arriving from
st. Louis about the last of June and
leaving with the Iyys on June Goth.
Following is the itinerary of the
Keokuk motor boat club and other
nearby cities which will probably take
part in the trip by water. Tho exact
mileage of the trip is SIS.
