A Pioneer Settler Of Bates County
Passed Away.
Virginia R. Darby, nee Jennings,
departed this life Nov. 10. 1909 after
a long and painful illness Of dropsy.
She was born three miles west of

known as the old Horn farm, east Of
the Miami. She was the daughter Of
William and Margaret Jennings who
were early settlers of Bates county
when emigration was moving west

was converted under the preaching
Of Rev. j. Cal. Littrel many years
ago, at meeting held in what was
known as the old Pierce school house,
located where the town of Foster
now stands, but long ago has decay

years in the service of the Lord pre-
pairing for her entrance into that life
eternal. She had no fear of death
but was ready and willing to 90 when
the death summons came. Her hus-
band and sister were constantly at
her bedside and all was done that
loving hands could do to alleviate her
suffering but to no avail. A few
hours before her death in a clear
voice she sang the song 1--WE Praise
the o God for the gift of Thy Son"
and at 1:30 p. m. "Wednesday she
crossed the valley Of death. The high
esteem in which the deceased was

It's Our Move.
We want every person in Salt
Lake and vicinity to know
that we move in August five
doors below our present To-
cation.

This move has become possible be-
cause the business has steadily grown
in popular favor until today it is the
largest popular priced shoe business in
the middle west
This business has grown to its splen-
did proportions not only through our
own individual efforts. but through the
sympathetic help of our employees, who
each and every one has been a contrib
ut0ry cause in helping to build up this
business to its splendid volume.
Another great factor, and one that
we consider as one Of our strongest as
sets, is the splendid help that has been
given US by our patrons i'm recommend
ing their friends This item, while q
courtesy seemingly Of little import
anCe to the person rendering it. is one
of inestimable value to US. for, like an
endless chain. il continues to grow.

Revenue Estimates.

Mr. Flint said It had been absolutely
impossible to make any estimate as to the
amount of revenue to be derived from the
corporation tax
Il am satisfied he said. that the esti-
mate made by the president of 81, 0Q0, 600
annually is altogether too low. In my
opinion the revenue to be derived will be
from forty to fifty millions of dollars
More like 500 1000" interpOsed Sen

Senator Dixon declared his belief that
the inheritance tax was the best form for
raising additional revenue.
And vet he continued, lin all this de-
bate hardly a voice has been raised in de-
Tense of the inheritance tax, which l
think all of US agree is the best of ALL"

Of the United States and the leader Of
the Republican party has asked for it.
shall vote for the corporation tax amend
ment."
Turning to the Democratic side OF the
chamber Mr.. Dixon declared that if the
minority would vote with Republicans
who favor the inheritance tax provision
of the house bill. it would become a law
Advocating an income tax, Senator
Owen declared that not only tens of mill
lions, but hundreds Of millions of dollars
might be brought into the treasury by
just and properly graduated tax Of that
kind.

an income tax bill as either of those in
trOduCed by Senators Bailey and Cum
Minis. The committee had, he said. aban-
dOned the idea of an inheritance tax, be-
cause such a tax was so largely imposed
by states, and they did not wish by MAX
ing double tax to have it become bur
densOme.
The inqUisitOrial features of the bill. he
explained. had been reduced to a mini
mum by the provision that the investiga-
tions contemplated could only be had of
such books and papers as were necessary.
Senator Buckley argued that the pro-
posed corporation tax would be double in
its operation when applied to insurance
companies.
Mr.. Aldrich and Mr. Flint agreed that
where building and loan associations are
properly corporations for profit" they
would be subject to the tax.
IF they are corporations for profit
said Mr.. Aldrich, they ought to be taxed
as other corporations for profit are
taxed"
Mr. Cummins believed these associa-
tons were corporations for profit" but
Mr. Flint declared that in his judgment
they would not be so declared so long as
they receive and divided earnings among
their mem bers only.

Comment by Aldrich.

During Mr.. Cummins' comment on the
receipts and expenditures OF the govern
ment, Mr. Aldrich declared that with ad-
ditional revenue to be provided BY the
corporation tax, he would be greatly sur
pTised II there is any deficit next year
His estimates Of expenditures for the
present year when the tariff bill was re-
ported to the senate, he said, were about
100000 too high, and he had, he said
congratulated himself that he had esti-
mated within 100000 Of the annual re-
ceipts. The deficit of the present year.
he added, would be about 100000
Again, he declared that If the tariff bill
becomes a law in its present form. IL
would next year produce an income OF
$3.50 go 600.
Mr.. Flint, in an explanation of the in
come tax amendment, said the finance
committee had not been united on the
question as to whether it would be neces-
sary to have revenues in addition to those
produced by the pending bill
