Chief Financial Center.

1.-The main reason, why the citizens OF
New York will pay SD large a part of the
tax is thai New York city is the chief
financial and commercial center of a great
country, with vast resources and indus
trial activity. For many years Americans
engaged in developing the wealth of all
parts of the country 'ihave been going TO
New York to secure capital and market
their securities and tol buy their supplies.
Thousands of men who have amassed
fortunes in all sorts of enterprises in
other states have gone to New York to
live because they like the life of the city
or because their distant enterprises re-
quire representation at the financial CEN
ter. The incomes of New York are in a
great measure derived from the country
at large. A continual stream of wealth
sets toward the great city from the mines
and manufactures and railroads outside
| of New York.
THE United States lis no longer a mere
| group of separate communities embraced
| I'm a political union. 1t has become q
| product Of organic growth, a vast indus
| trial organization covering and including
| the whole country: and the relation OF
New York city to thee whole organiza ton
| of which 1t is a part Is the great source
| Of her wealth and the chief reason why
| her citizens will pay so great part OF
an income tax. We have the wealth be-

the same proportion in which we share

Present Power Of Congress.

1.-THE Congress already has power to
impose taxes on incomes from what
ever source derived. subject to the
rule of construction, which excluded
state securities from the operation of
the power: but the taxes so imposed
must be apportioned among the states.
Under the proposed amendment there
will be the same and no greater power
to tax incomes whatever source deriv
ed. subject to the same rule of con-
Istruction, but relieved from the re-
quirement that the tax shall be ap-
portioned.
1T appears. therefore. that no danger
to the powers or instrumentalities of the
state is to be apprehended from the
adoption of the amendments
1t would be cause for regret II the
amendment were rejected by the legisla-
ture of New York.
1T is said that very large part OF
any income tax under the amendment
would be paid by citizens of New York.
That is undoubtedly true. but there is
all the more reason why our legislature
should take special care to exclude every
narrow and selfish motive from influence
upon its action and should consider the
proposal in a spirit of broad national
patriotism. and should act upon ii for the
best interests of theswhole country.

The premium resulting from the issue of

bonds is shown in the General Balance Sheet.
In view Of the large numher of investors hold
ing the stock of yenr Compsny. your Board
deemed il wise to pay dividends on the capital
stock quarterly instead Of semi annually. and
the necessary action was taken TO carry the
same into effect. In accordance Herewith. dvi-

81 do not consider that the amend

large the taxing power of the national
government or will have any effect eX-
cept to relieve the exercise of that tax

the tax shall he apportioned among
the several states. The effect of the
amendment will be, in my view. the
same as IL it said, The United States
may lay tax on incomes without APP
portioning the tax. and this shall be
applicable whatever the source of the
income subjected to the tax leaving
the question, What incomes are sub

Insurgency has gone so far that the New York World. Demo- cratic, says: No matter what Big Dictators Roosevelt and Bryan may be or may not do, whether they sulk or whether they fight. the next House of Representatives Is to be Demo- cratic.
 1t is to be Democratic not be. cause of the superior virtue of Democrats or because there is the utmost confidence in Demo- crats, but because there are tens of thousands of Republicans of independence and courage who will vote to bring it about.
 A Democratic congress is nec- essary to open the books and to turn on the light. It is neces- sary to ascertain what Senator Aldrich meant when he said

These conditions have appeared as result of downright incapa- city and neglect in high places, of false ideas, of profligate habits, of low morals and of plain stealing and grating on the part of a crowd of favorites ever increasing in numbers and rapacity. Republicans as well as Democrats want to know the truth.
 A Democratic congress will investigate, expose and so far as possible punish those who are responsible for these scandals and injustices:
 1. The colossal sugar funds.
 2. The Panama Canal cor ruption.
 3. The extravaGance Of gov ernment expenditures, amount ing now to $1, 098, 847, 184 in one year.
 1. The amount of money that CortelyCu and other cabinet members for corporations squeez- ed out of the plutocrats for cam psign purposes when Roosevelt ran in 1904, and how much Hitchcock raised for Taft four years later.
 }. The enormous expense of jingoism, wars past and to come, now costing $431, ,000, 900 year.
 The country wants facts. The people want truth. They can get neither from a Republican congress. They will elect a Democratic house of representa- tives in the belief that 1t will open the books, that it will at least check obvious wrongs and that in some degree it will pro- mote honesty and justice. There is no partisanship in publicity. Only rascals fear it or suffer from it.

Waldron, Ark, Oct 9, 1909 Mr. Wm Brooks, Prop,
 Brooks Med. Co.,, kusseilville, Ark.
 My Dear Sir: For several weeks have been intending to write you Tn re- gard to your Baby Balm.
 If you remember, when yon were here this summer 1 told you that ouf baby was sick. He was then having his third attack of bow7l trouble this summer. They were very severe. The first two were exceedingly alarm ing and suggested to my wife t.at we try your remedy, but she was pre- judiced against patent medicine, sc was I, but l knowing you, gave me confidence to some extent, (pardon the modified clause
 In the last case however my wife agreed to try your Baby Balm. went to my doctor and told him that wanted to try it. He said that he did not know what 1t contained but to give 1t trial. We dld, and 1t worked like a charm. Now my wife will got be without it and the baby has not had bad case with his bowels since we began using 1t.
 You know how parents are about the baby. We watch him and if any trouble is indicated Brooks Baby Bowel Balm is put into service prompt ly and 1t has not failed to keep him straight so far.
 have been at the drug store here on different occasions when parties come n for baby medicine and just cant (and don t try) to keep from "buttin il" and telling them to get your Baby Balm. Just night before last a man came into the drug store here to get badly medicine. My wife says tell him to get Baby Balm, but he had already learned ts worth and that was what he Was after.
 You yourself know that have al ways found objection to the publishing of patent medicine advertising in my paper and never thought l would be q person to write recommendation for a patent medicine. but l could hardly resist in this casa, since feeling the great benefits received from your Baby Balm.
 Very respectfully yours,
 w l.. Baker.
 The above is one one of the thou sands of unsolicited lerters received in support of Baby Balm and this baby IS one of the 50, 00G Arkansas Babies test ing Baby Balm last year, among which was not single failure or complaint.
 Mir Baker Is Editor and Proprietor of the Advance Reporter of Waldron, Ark, one of the largest and best weekly newspapers in the state. His letter is given space because of his known prejudice against patent medi- cines.
 The manufactures otfer 5000 for a formula or prescription producing a greater percent of cures than Baby Balm. They also offer SlO0 for case of bowel infection in children that will not yield to Baby Balm ifgiven under specific directions from beginning.
