Suit for Taxes Against Southern

Suit has been filed in Frankfort by
State Revenue Agent Earl Huntsman
for back taxes for the years 19O6-07-
08-l 9 and 1910. The petition alleges
that the Southern Railway did not
make a correct report to the Auditor
in that it reported only 1915 miles IN
Kentucky when as matter of fact it
operated 1872. 10 miles, and that it re-
ported that the Southern Railway in
Kentucky operated the road in this
State, while as.at matter of fact, so
the petition says. the Southern Rail-
way.operated the roads and should paw
franchise tax on valuation fixed by
taking the prOportionate part of its
capital stock and net earnings that the
Kentucky mileage bears to the whole
road and its earnings and capital
stock.

Early Shopping.

Early Christmas shopping for the
sake of employees of the big stores
has been taken up actively in Chicago
by the Consumers League, the Girls
Friendly Society and various college
societies who declare that the strain
incident to the holiday rush must be
lessened. Already extra forces of
clerks have been engaged and the reg
ular Christmas delivery service inau-
gurated more than month in advance
of Christmas. This "shop early
movement was considered by the ma
tional convention of the Girls Friend
ly Society.
Mrs. Robert B. Gregory. president
of the Chicago branch, upon her re-
turn said: eff women realized the
strain undergone by girls who serve
them in the department stores during
holiday week and before they would
begin Immediately to do their buying.
Moreover many articles can be pur-
chased cheaper month or so in ad-
vance than during the holiday week.
Women who are interested in aiding
the sales girls should not be satisfied
when they have completed their own
shopping early; they should call up
their friends and point out to them the
advantages all around in early buying
and get them to do the same

It might not be so easy to compre.

While William H. Taft has reached
the goal OF every Americans ambition
and is President Of the United States,
It is said by those who are on terms
Of intimacy with linn that he would
gladly relinquish that position II he
could become the chief justice Of the
Supreme Court of the United States.
And when he named a new chief JUS
'tlce TO succeed the late Melville W..
Fuller; he sacrificed the greatest am
,bition Of ais life.
That the President has long de-
sired a place uponthe Supreme Court
is well known. 1t will be remembered
that President Roosevelt could have
gratified his ambition and appointed
Mr.. Taft to The bench. but that he in
stead was said to have persuaded Mr..
Taft almost against the latter's will,
that he should not take the place but
instead should make the race for the
presidency.
That he would gladly lay down the
care and responsibilities of the White
House and resign what is usually re-
garded the highest office within the
gift of the American people in ex.
change for Supreme Court appoint
ment is the impression he has given
intimate friends who have discussed

the President.

oh Christ, Thine eyes OF light and love
With Christians always go,
Alike on eartRs green fields above I
And In the icavesabelow.

Dost down sthe shaft descend;
Thou; while he plies his venturous
3,E, work, ssil ~
Art with him as his Friend.
No midnight gloom shuts out Thy face,
: No silence stills Thy voice;
Our Jesus in the DEAREST. place
Makes faithful souls rejoice.
Then hear us, Lord and always bless
Our brethren's toll and ours;
From dangers shield us, and distress,
From sin and satan's powers.
Add strength and skill to venturous
limbs; III.
Our homes with plenty cheer:
And bid our hearts sing gladstone

For Joy that Thou art near.
Then by Thy cross and sovereign

Exalt US, Lord at last,
To wake and see Thy unveiled face,
Where warkness all is past.
