TIRED OF "FAKIRS'
chic Business Men BaVe Resolved to AdVsr
Use In N~eWspapes Only

The Business Mems Association OF
Cayton, o., is tired of fake advertia-
ing schemes. says the Louisville
Courier-Journa in a recent editorial.
Il has announced that in future ii
will discourage any form of adver-
Using other than in newspapers. I'm
questionably business men waste a
great deal Of money in buying adver-
Using space where It does them no
appreciate good. The world il full
Of so-ealled advertising snaps" and
schemes. The wonder is not that the
business men Of Canton are tired Of
them, but that they have been so pa
tent under long suffering.
Merchants are often called upon to
buy space where there IS small
pretense Of being beneficial. Under
the thinIy-veiled assumption Of pur-
chasing something valuable the mer-
chant simply is worked" in order to
help out some individual or organiza-
ton of individuals. He may believe
or suspect that he is buying some-
thing which will do him mn pood in a
business way, but he buys because
he has become accustomed to it, or
because Of the assurance that a com
petitor has bought. The amount may
small, but where, as in most cities,
there II an unending number Of such
sche hes the aggregate outlay is large.
is a part Of the newspapers basi-
neg to serve The advertiser. The
ue Of newspaper advertising has
Aen demonstrated. The merchant
aho spends money for newspaper
space with judgement need have no
apprehension that he is buying a
gold brick. The purchasing public to
the business man looks for pat
ronage is accustomed to GO to the
newspapers for information as to
what the men Of business have to of
fer. 1t does not take serious account
Of the myriad advertising snaps
that are in constant circulation. Il
does not trouble itself to read all the
stuff that is put on the billboards or
do more than give it passing no
lice. The newspaper is the natural
source Of information, the logical
medium Of the advertiser, and the
sensible purchaser concerns himself
.ut little with other forms Of public
ty.
The business men Of Canton are to
% congratulated on their determine
ion to emancipate themselves from
advertising snap"

To the Honorable President and Mem
bers of the Parish Board of
School Directors Of the Parish
of st. Landry:
Gentlemen: We, the undersigned
members Of your Finance Committee,
respectfully beg to report as follows:
The books Of the Secretary and
Treasurer, insofar as examined by us,
are in splendid shape, the best, in
fact, that we have ever found them.
At this time of the school year it is
not advisable, we believe, to attempt
a thorough check; enough, however,
has been done to justify the above
statement. After a careful estimate,
based upon the receipt of last year
and the current monthly expenses for
this session. including October, No
Yember, December and February, we
find that we can reasonably anticipate
the revenues to be received as fol-
lows:
State apportionmen S34, 10000
Police Jury appropriation. 100000
Poll taxes 10000
Interest on 18th Section. 10000
Fines and forfeitures 100000
Rent Of school lands $500
Total 77,325.oo
The current expenses for the past
five months will approximate $I0,-
10000 per month, not more, distri-
buted as follows:
Teachers salaries So, 10000
superintendent salary, Of
fee expenses, per diem etc 10000
Total 49,. $4,000
In conclusion, we therefore, recon-
mend that you continue the schools
Of the parish for a term of eight
months, or until May 10th, 1910.
Respectfully submitted,
W. j. BOUDREAU,
A. NJ. BITTLE.
On motion of Mr.. Hawkins it was

On motion of Mr. Erich, ii was re-

FILE BRIEF IN
SOUTH AMBOY
COAL TAX CASE
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, June 16:-The claim of
the mayor, common council and tax
collector of South Amboy, of the
right of the city to collect some $780,
600 in taxes from the Susquehanna
Coal Company, Is filed today In the
United States Circuit Court by Fred
erick M. P. Pearse, counsel for the
defendants.
The suit was brought by the coal
company to restrain South Amboy
from collecting the personal taxes
assessed against it in 1909, 1907
and 1908, on large quantities of coal
stored in the city, and also to have
the taxes declared unconstitutional
and Illegal. The suit was argued
two weeks ago and the defendants
were given leave to file their brief.
The case Is important because the
state courts have already held that
coal stored In, this manner Is taxable
in the district where found. The
chief point raised by the Susque-
hanna company is that the coal is
under interstate commerce regula-
tions and therefore Is not subject to
taxation by the taxing authorities of
New Jersey. OF course, IL this con-
tention shall be upheld, 1t will de-
feat the collection of taxes from any
of the big railroad or coal compa-
MES under the decision of the state
courts.
Counsel for South Aniboy disputed
the contention of the plaintiff that
the coal has no situs in this state,
but is in transit through the state.
His argument is that when the coal
arrives at South Amboy it's trans
portation has ceased and it becomes
personal property, having a situs In
this state, receiving the protection
of the laws, and therefore, taxable.
1t is further argued that the pay
ment of taxes on the real property
of the company in Pennsylvania does
not relieve it from the payment Of
personal taxes in this state because
the coal, after being mined in Penn
sylvania, was personal property, but
the tax paid in Pennsylvania was on
real property and not upon coal.
The brief. argues further that the
plaintiff is barred from contesting
the taxes of 1906 by the judgment Of
the New Jersey Supreme Court.
The Susquehanna Company, al
though a foreign corporation, sub
mitted to the jurisdiction of the New
Jersey courts and applied to have
the taxes of 1906 set aside. The
courts held that the tax was valid
and the defendants contend that
the complainant is barred from call
ing upon the United States court to
relitigate the matter.
One of the points made by the de-
PENDANTS Is that the coal Is shipped
to South Amboy and there unloaded
and stored to await purchase orders,
when 1t is reshipped. 1t is held that
the company, therefore, occupies no
different position from any ordinary
wholesale dealer who buys goods
and holds them until delivered upon
sales orders. Judge Rellstab has the
question under consideration and
will decide 1t later.

The United Lead Company will

learned, In an unofficial way, the
chemical concerns, which are vir-
tually one, will introduce the manu-

500 men and 500 girls.
The Roessler & Hasslacher Chem

high as eight and six story build
ings. The piling for the foundation
of the first of these will be driven
Monday. This building will be three
stories high, which is equal in
height to a six-story dwelling house.
buildings used as chemical factories
are usually large, owing to the large
Vats, tanks, etc, they often contain.
Just what the chemical companies
are going to do with the new build
ings remains secret, known only
to those of high standing in both
concerns. The utmost secrecy has
been kept in preparing for the vast
additions. Architects have been at
work upon the buildings and wharf
for the past year and both local and
out of town contractors had been
bidding that long. 1t is estimated
that nearly two years time will be
required to complete the work.
One large building, approximately
400 by 200 feet and four or fivo
stories high, will be erected for the
United Lead Company, on tract
recently purchased for the purpose.
In this will be manufactured a com.
plete line of firing cartridges, such
as is being made by the Union Me-
tallic Cartridge Company, the lar
gest makers of cartridges in the
country. Approximately 500 girls
and several men will be used in this
branch of work.

the United Lead Company, until
some months ago, when they erect

time of completion of their new shot
tower they manufactured all their
own products. even to the shot, and
orders to the United Lead Company
are reported to have ceased
With that the United Lead con-
cern decided to start in the manu-
facture of cartridges A suitable
building to cost approximately
100000, has been designed and
work is expected to be started in
short time. 1t will be in charge Of

of the sub-contracts are to be exc

ROB STORE OF
LUDWIG WOLFF
DURING NIGHT

Through a rear window protected
from thieves by a crossword of iron
bars, someone last night or early
this morning entered the furniture
store of Ludwig Wolff at 104 and
106 Smith street, and disregarding
valuable rugs and furniture, entered
the office, ransacking and scattering
about valuable papers In a search
for money. Fortunately for the
owner OF the store, there was no
cash lying about and the thief had
to content himself with about two
dollars worth of postage stamps.
The robbery was reported to the
police this morning.
The window through which the
thief is thought to have entered fur
nishes light to a lavatory in the rear
of the store. 1t is level with the
ground, and gazing out Of 1t one can
see a wagon passage leading In from
Jefferson street.
1t is thought that the marauder
was boy, as the space between the
bars on the window would not be
large enough for man of ordinary
proportions to pass through. Reach
Ing through the bars the thief push
ed open the window and climbed
through, and, making his way among
the furniture, reached the office.
In leaving the store the thief did
not care to squeeze through the bars
again He calmly unlocked the rear
door, unfastened the bolt and pro-
ceeded along the driveway to Jeffer-
son street A clue in the possession
OF the police lead them to believe
that the thief will be arrested today.
