Baby Kidnapping Case Set.

Offfceit have been busy serving pa
pers in the famous incubator baby
kidnapping cases which are set for
May at Holton. Half hundred wit
nesses likely will be examined in the
two cases, which consist of the case
against Mrs Barclay and the case
against Tillotson. The case was TAX
en- to Jackson county on a change of
venue because it was charged that
newspaper articles had prejudiced the
minds of persons in this city who were
likely to be chosen as jurors.
The incubator baby was taken from
the home of the alleged real mother
in this city last August after Clarence
Bellknap had been Rocked down and a
woman badly frightened. The child
was taken in autos and buggies into
Kansas City where the kidnapping
party was captured and later brought

OKLAHOMA TAX LEVY INVALID
State Officials Temporarily Enioined
From Collecting From Railroads
by Federal Court

Guthrie, Oklahoma. - In joint
opinion by Judges Cotteral and Camp
bell in the United States circuit court
here, the state of Oklahoma is tenn
porarily enjoined from collecting from
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
and from the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas Railroad companies the entire
state tax for 1908 and portion of local
taxes averaging II per cent.
The court holds that part and pos
sibly all of the state levy for the first
10 months of statehood is invalid be-
cause of unauthorized expenditures.
In granting the injunction Judge Cot
teral held that other property in the
state was undervalued, and apparent
ly Intentionally so, for the purpose OF
making the railroads pay more than
their rightful share of taxes. He also
ordered that within 40 days the rail-
way companies pay into the 20 coun-
ties treasures their county taxes on
the same basis as other property in
the state is assessed.

Hits County Clerks.

Reports from the sparsely settled
counties of the state indicate that the
amended tax law will work a hardship
on forty-nine county clerks and ham
per the transaction of county business.
"The law will make me one term
err" writes a county clerk from one Oh
the small counties, "and l presume
there are forty-eight other county
clerks in the same boat. Aside from
the blow to the clerks personally it is
bad for the public, because a county
clerk doesn't become useful until he
has had at least one term. 1t takes
that long to get on to the work"
The amendment that threatens to
make one termers of so many clerks
provides that clerks in all counties
having less than 10000 population
shall be ex-officio county assessors.
There are forty-nine counties in the
state with less than 10000 people. The
one term explanation lies in a state
ment by a member of the tax coln-
mission that no assessor. can do his
duty and remain popular with tax
payers.
