A large number of teachers OF the

who spoke in part as follows:

MLENDON SAYS THE
JOB IS STILL HIS
Visits Office Daily and Insists on His
Rights.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 14.-S. G. McLen-
don, chairman of the railroad commits
sion, has stated to his colleagues on
that board that he does not recognize
the action of the former governor and
the legislature as legal and that he
still regards himself as the commits
sion chairman.
Mr.. McLendon takes the position
that the action of the house in depos-
ing him was extra wires and therefore
null and void. 1t seems that he will
continue to act as chairman of the
commission until the courts pass upon
his deposition.
Mr.. McLendon last week called upon
the state treasurer for the arrears of
his salary and the question whether
or not he is still in office was referred
to the attorney general, who has not
yet given an answer.
The railroad chairman has been at
his Office daily since his suspension
order, getting his mail and looking
over such matters as come within his
ken
In taking the position that he did
today with his colleagues, it is said,
that he is acting upon the best legal
advice to be had in the state
Able lawyers here and in other
cities having counseled him to do as
he did and to claim the office.

PROSPERITY'S TIDE.
washington POst.)

Now that the tariff has been settled
and the uncertainty of rates removed
from the industrial world, the tide of
business resumption has set in at a
pace which lends good grounds for
the assertions frequently made of late.
that the United States is entering up
on an era of prosperity such as it has
never before witnessed. The depres-
sion of the two years past has served
one excellent purpose of clearing the
field of wildcat speculation, and has
been severe but salutary test of val
ues. On the present safe and substan-
tial basis of business, it is in the finest
shape imaginable to ride the tide of
expansion now settling in.
From every section of the Union,
and from practically every industry
come reports of preparation for great
expansion of trade. Even at the pres
emf time of usual midsummer dullness
the commercial activity of the country
is much greater than the average at
this time of the year Wholesale CEN
ters report a flood of orders in every
line of trade. The most significant
and satisfactory feature of the stu
alton is found in the West, where it is
expected that the value of the crops
will this year pass the $4,000, 100000
mark, exceeding by $325,OOO,O0O the
value of the crops of last year.
The resumption of railroad building
on a large scale, particularly in the
Northwest, means the addition of
great area of fertile land devoted to
the production of foodstuffs and a big
corresponding demand on the East
for manufactured articles. Reports
and Oregon indicate tide of immi-
grafton which has already reached
large proportions, and which will in a
year or two materially increase the
population of these sparsely settled
States.
Every manufacturing industry
throughout the country reflects con.
ditions of stimulation and prosperity
following the settlement of the tariff
controversy. And nowhere in the
country is the industrial outlook
brighter than in the South. The decade
past has been one of wonderful de-
velopment in the South and the South
west, but this industrial evolution was
but laying the basis, clearing the
ground for the real exploitation of
the South's great natural resources
which is now about to begin
There is not a single discord in the
chorus of optimism which comes from
every section of this broad land. If
anything perhaps the industrial
prophets are a trifle too enthusiastic
in viewing the outlook, and there ia

TO TAKE SOMETHING
AND GIVE NOTHING
Grave Constitutional Question InvOly-
ed Corporation Income Tax.
(The New York Times J

(The New York Times)
After the United States has collect
ed tax from corporation in respect
to the transaction of it's business, will
it guarantee the privilege of doing the
business in respect to which the tax is
collected? If not, the United States is
in the position of taking something for
nothing, and taking it from one who
is allowed to do business while an
other is forbidden. For example, the
business of guaranteeing bank depos-
its is both lawful and popular, how
ever it may be criticised from some
points of view. But the attorney gem
eral of Kansas has just ruled that
company formed to guarantee bank
deposits at a higher rate of interest
than Kansas approves may be exclud-
ed from doing business in Kansas for
that reason alone
Would the United States collect the
corporation tax in respect of business
which Kansas refuses to allow? Or,
having collected the tax, would the
United States proceed to constrain
Kansas to allow what otherwise it
would disalloW? Recent litigation has
settled that it is unlawful for a state
to cancel a license to do business with
in a state because of appeals to Fed
eral courts against state legislation.
The right to litigate could not thus be
restrained. But can the right to do a
lawful business in respect to which
the United States has collected a tax
be withdrawn? The dilemma appears
to possess embarrassments for either
the United States or it's component
states. 1t was prudent to arrange the
enactment of such a statute in such a
manner that debate was impracticable.
