DAVID H.. MOFFAT DEAD.
Colorado Capitalist and Railroad
Builder Sucscombs to Attack of
Grippe

New York.-David H. Moffat, bank
er and railroad man of Denver died
here Saturday from the after effects
of grippe.
David II. Moffat was in his seventy.
second year at the time of death. For
many years he had been recognized
as Coiorado's leading citizen. His
connection with the development OF
the state had gained for him the name
of empire builder" Perhaps his
greatest recent work of development
was the Denver, Northern & Pacific
railroad, known as the Moffat road, in
honor of the builder. This road, ex.
tending from Denver TO Salt Lake
through a rich but undeveloped section
of northern and northwestern Colo
RADIO, vas started in the year 1903
and has been completed beyond
Steamboat Springs, Colo. Since traf-
tic started over the line several years
ago the road has been a money maker.

TAFT OUTLINES MESSAGE.
Recommendations Will Be Confined
to Canadian Reciprocity and
Permanent Tariff Board.

Columbia, S. C.-President Taft,
according to present plans, will con-
fine his message to the extra session
of congress to Canadian reciprocity
and the establishment of a permanent
tariff board.
He is convinced the country de-
sires, and ought to desire, a further
revision of several schedules of the
Payne-Aldrich act. He feels the
wooden schedule indefensible, it is
said, and is anxious it shall be revis-
ed soon.
The president is equally convinced
that the country desires that revis-
ions of the tariff be made in the light
of scientific information which it is
the duty of the tariff board to collect.
1t Is said he rather inclines to the
idea that no schedule should be re.
vised upon which the tariff board is
not ready with it's information.
He has directed the temporary tar
if board to make a report on the
wooden schedule by December l. Per-
sonally, he would like for congress to
wait until that time and not attempt
to revise any schedules at the extra
session. He will give the matter fur
Their consideration, however, after he
reaches Washington.

A FEW VOTES
MORE STATES MUST FAVOR IN
COME TAX BEFORE coNsTITu.
TON CAN BE CHANGED.
Utah, Rhode Island and Vermont Have
Refused to Ratify the Amendment
This Year, While Question
Pending in Seven others.

New York.-Nine more states must
ratify the proposed income tax amend
ment before it can become a part OF
the federal constitution. Reports re-
ceiyed here from the capitals OF the
forty-six states show that the amend
ment has received favorable action
in the joint Legislatures Of twenty-six.
Vermont, Rhode Island and Utah have
refused to ratify the amendment this
year, while New Hampshire has tax
en- favorable action in only n
branch of the Legislature. Among the
sixteen which have not acted, the
question is pending in louisiana, New
York, Massachusetts, Maine, Connec-
ticut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The matter is scheduled to come
before the Florida legislature next
month. West Virgiana has post
poned" action, Arkansas, Tennessee,
Wyoming, Minnesota and Delaware
have not considered the matter.
The constitution provides that pro-
posed amendments to become valid
must be ratified by three-fourths OF
the states. This necessitates favor
able action by thirty-five of the forty
six states. There is no limit to the
time of such ratification and mega
tive action by a legislature is not con-
elusive, a state having the right to
reverse it's judgment.

There is only one way to cure deaf

inflamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube is inhamed you have a

and when 1t Is entirely closel, deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the in
