MAY TAX COAL-At the coming
session Of the legislature another eff.
fort will be made to place a small tax
on anthracite coal, the money TO be
used to help the families of miners
who may be killed or manned in the
discharge of their duties. Several
members of the House from the hard
coal counties have exchanged view
on the subject, and although the coal
companies oppose the scheme lpgislat-
ors who favor such law will do their
best to effect its passage In past leg
islatures ex- Governor PeunypackeT and
ex-Speaker McClain favored such a
tax, but some of the best lawyers hold
that the law would be unconstitutiou-
