PLEA FOR INCOME TAX
Governments Brief Upholdins Con-
stitutionality Of Law Submitted to
United States Supreme Court.

Washington, March 15.-The govern
ment's defense Of the constitutionalty
of the corporation tax was submitted
to the United States supreme court in
brief today. The government claims
it is not direct tax upon property,
but is an excise tax upon carrying on
or doing business" The statute, it is
claimed, shows the transaction of bus
mess to be the subject of the tax and
income of the business is used merely
as measuring the amount of the tax.
Several decisions are cited to sustain
this contention.
1t is also claimed this tax Is not
direct tax upon the shares of stock
holders nor upon their income. Also
that 1t does not become a direct tax
in the special case of a company deal
ing in real estate. Another point made
is that the tax is not an infraction of
the general power of states to author
ize the formation of corporations. In
dividuals and partnership are exempt
because they are without the aid of
the legal rules applicable to corpora
tions and joint stock companies. says
the brief Exemption of labor and fra
ternal societies is justified on the
ground that they are not organized for
profit.

ROTHsCHILD's STRANGE FAD.
Prince of Wealth Is the Worlds
Greatest Collector of Fleas.

Prince of Wealth Is the Worlds
Greatest Collector of Fleas.
A strange fad for a wealthy man
is flea collecting, yet Charles Roths-
child, that prince of wealth, has been
for years the worlds greatest collect
or of feas. He it was who first oh
tanned and described the Oriental
rat flea, which comes from the Nile
This rat flea is the true carrier to
man of the black death, which has
murdered untold millions of people.
| The disease occurs in rats, and one
! Oriental flea can carry it from rat
to kill a man.
Egyptian or rat feas have been
spread all over the warm countries
of the world by the rats which they
worry and ride. 1t has been proved
| that man fleas and cat fieas can carry
| plague, but not so strong or deadly
as the rat fiea's plague. One flea s

plague germs. Fleas suck the rat
blood and so get white cells from
! the rats. Both rats and fleas become
so charged that the plague stops,
owing to immunity.
Charles Rothschild years ago start
led the world by paying $4,000 for
pair of rare, almost unknown, Are
tic feas.
All human fleas originated in north
Europe, and lived on the badger be-
| fore they learned to like to live on

served in small tubes of alcohol, and

saw, for one flea bite will give a
man the plague.
The Egyptian flea does not thrive
in cold climates, for the plague

most powerful thing for its size that
grows, barring some bacteria that
can hit red corpuscle so hard they
can send it spinning through the

the columns of one of the prominent

A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.

ONE GREAT LARGE FOOL.
The Germans Mental Attitude Was
All Right, Anyway.

Herman Seiferth, a wood turner
from Germany, was among the first
of a score of applicants seeking pa
pers" from a federal judge in Kan
sas recently. Herman had been in
America seven years, and his CONVEX
sation, albeit a tritie warped, was
quite understandable
So it was with no great effort that
the Judge and others understood
Norman solemnly to assert that lib
erty was the capital of Missouri and
that Abraham Lincoln was the first
president of the United States.
So far, so good. The questions of
law and morals proved a bit more
difficult.
What do you think of polygamy?"
the assistant district attorney in
quired.
"vot iss?" parted the examinee,
puzzled.
MISUNDERSTANDING" the inter
locutor repeated. DO you believe
it is right, proper and lawful?"
Herman was stumped. There APP
peared to be no word in the lexicon
of the Vaterland that sounded
enough like polygamy to give Her
man even a false start. The judge
ventured a hint.
E"What do you think of man that
would have several wives at the same
time?" the court asked.
That was easy. Herman looked
vastly relieved.
ooh" he rejoined, positively, Il
think such a man would be one great,
large fool" And the court was so
well satisfied with Herman's moral
attitude and right intent that the
papers were forthcoming despite
the applicants minor inaccuracies in
history and geography.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Appropriations!
The amount of debate that one item
is capable of precipitating in the
house of representatives couldn't be
computed by any sort of mathemat-
les. 1t is incalculable.
Hence, there is the rosiest sort of
a prospect that for nearly an entire
week the house will be divided
against itself and graphing in re-
lentless combat on this very ques-
ton. The house spent most of to-
day on special appropriations, pass
ing one bill, defeating another and
then sending to the table all other
measures of a similar nature which
came before it. Friends of these
measures probably feared that they,
too, would be defeated.
The house passed by 1872 to 27 the
bill of Mr.. Vinson of Baldwin appro-
priating as additional maintenance
fund to the state sanitarium $4,000
for 1910 and $4,000 for 1911. 1t
was stated this money was needed
on account of increase in the num-

EGYPT's COTTON CROP.
Egyptian Planters Have Had Very
Bad Weather.

Bad Weather.
Henry S. Reed of Atlanta is in
receipt of letter from Apost G. Bar
on, planter and buyer of Egyptian
cotton of AbOu-Kebir, Egypt, which
gives a clear insight to the cotton
situation in that country. Judging
from the letter Egyptian farmers
contend with many difficulties SINH
lar to those of southern planters
the worm, bad weather, low prices
when there is cotton to sell and high
prices when it is no longer in the
producers possession. Indications
are that the Egyptian cotton crop
will be about the same as that of
last year, which was considerably
smaller than usual, because of the
worm and cold weather, and that this
season the crop will be later than
usual.
