THE INDIGNATION MEETING,

Tuesday evening last was tn
occasion of the assembling OF
large number Of business men il
all walks of life who met In mass
| meeting at the City Hal to pro
test against the action of thu
Southern Pacific Railroad in in
| terrupting and causing delays tt
the construction Of the Iberia, st
Mary e. Eastern Railroad in theil
efforts to cross their tracts in the
lower limits of the City and also
to protest against the effort be
ing made to annul the tax voted
Lin aid Of the Southwestern Trac-
Ltion Company. Mayor Power
bcalled the meeting to order and
was elected chairman, it being the
sentiment that he act in that
capacity inasmuch as the meet
ing had been called by the City
Council. Addresses were made
by Messrs. Jules Dreyfus, X. y.
Mcmahon, L. T. Dulany. Edwin
Broussard. A. j. Cammack, F. M.
Welch and others. These gentle
men conceded the rights of the
Southern Pacific officials to resort
to the Courts for final adjustment
of the matter at issue, but took
the position that owing to the
fact that these railroad PROPOSE
tions had been endorsed, almost
unanimously by the property
holding voters Of the Sixth Ward,
that it little became the great
Southern Pacific Railroad to put
obstacles in the way so as to
hinder and delay improvements
that would rebound to the benc-
fit Of all the people. All of the
speakers during The evening ex-
pressed themselves as having no
desire to criticise unjustly the
Southern Pacific, contending
that there was room for all and
New Iberia was determined to get
As many railroads as it was pos
sible too under the circumstances
Mr.. Welch said that were the
Pacific to move their
shops here he would be the first
TO see that proper bonuses were
given and an exemption to the
Southern Pacific for twenty-five
years from all taxation would be |
assured them were they to locate
heir shops here. At the conclu-
ion Of his talk, Mr.. Ventress j.
Smith asked for the privilege of
stating that he had just been
wired that matters with reference
o the iberia, st. Mary & East
I'm were being amicably adjusted
which was more than satisfying
o those in attendance. At the
of Mr.. w. L. Grant, a
committee. consisting of Messrs.
Jules Dreyfus. Henry L. Smith.

Teeth in Their StomachS.

Whatever it may be that the lobster
and the crab, rapacious. never dainty,
are eating they always see something
else that they want and can't wait un'
til they have masticated the first be-
fore attacking the second. But they
don't give up the first, not by any
manner or means. Nature. humorlng
this rapacious bent, has fitted the lob
ster and the crab with teeth in their
stomachs. and they swallow their half
masticated food and finish the chew
ing process with their stomachs while
they seize and chew the other thing
that has attracted them. HOLSTERS and
crabs have no teeth in their mouths.
They chew with their claws what they
have time to and hand the unfinished
Job down to their stomachs to do the
rest Of the chewing.

Power to Tax itinerants.

The supreme court today defined
the term transient merchant" sc
that hereafter city and town coun
ellis can have no trouble in ascertain
ing what merchants can be com
PEELED to pay an itinerant merchants
license.
The case has an interesting feat
ure in that while the court reversed
the judgement of the lower court, the
lower courts judgement must stand
so far as the results Of the trial are
concerned.
The case was that of the town OF
Scranton against Lewis Henson and
J. L. Black, accused of being itinerant
merchants and selling goods without
obtaining the license provided for
by the town council.
They were convicted by the mayor
but appealed to the district court
which acquitted them. The SUI
preme court reversed the district
court as to it's propositions Of law
but as the offense was semi-criminal
the results of the, acquittal cannot be
changed.
The court, dening an ''itinerant
merchant" uses the following Ian.
guage:
Three things must be considered
First, the kind of business; second
the place where it is conducted !;
third, the duration or intended dura-
ton thereof. If the business was or
was intended to be intermittent in
character and not. permanent, then
the seller is an itinerant vender and
not a permanent tradesman. And it
makes no difference that he has his
residence in the city or town where
he offers the goods for sale"
The ruling is important as it set
ties the question of whether a man
living in a city can buy stock of
bankrupt or other kind of goods,
open a store for a siXty-day sale and
then quit business and yet escape
the license tax which many cities
and towns place on itinerant mer-

Northwestern improvements.

Boone Democrat: Announcement
has been made of proposed plans of
the northwestern to ballast their
double tracks between Chicago and
Omaha with crushed rock and stone.
This work is rendered necessary by
the increased business along the line,
which makes the present system Of
fine sand road bed impracticable.
The company is now operating a
crushed stone plant at LeGrande
near Cedar Rapids and is already
shipping out 1900 yards per day
along the main line. They, expect
to start operations at the stone plant
at Cedar Rapids soon. When this
ballasting is completed the North
western will have the finest stretch
of road bed in the world between
Chicago and Omaha.
Three track System.
The company has already started
to lay three track system on the
main line in Iowa also. This is rem
dered necessary by the increased
volume of freight business in Iowa
In this, as in everything else, the
Northwestern will lead, as this will
be the first three track system in
the, middle west.
Division Cut Up.
Over against this good news of fu
ture prospects for Boone in connec-
ton with the Northwestern has come
the unexpected announcement this
week that the Iowa division is to be
divided and that new division is to
be created at Belle Plane. This
division is to cover all the eastern
part of the state up to the east line
of the Boone yards, including the
Ames, Des Moines. The west
ern division will extend from the east
line of the Boone yards to Omaha
and include the Audubon and Harlan
lines.
Superintendent Hammill, however,
will remain in Boone and have charge
of the western division, which will
be good news to the people of Boone,
for Mr.. Hammill has in every way
possible shown himself interested in
the future of Boone and has assisted
materially in upholding the future of
the city and the Northwestern
mutually and we would very much re-
greet his being removed from here.
Mr. H. Wallister, now stationed al
Winona. is to be transferred to Belle
PLANE as superintendent of the new
division. We understand that the
company has been contemplating this
move for some time and has at last
decided to make the change. We are
satisfied, however, that it will make
no difference in the improvements al
ready announced and contemplated
for Boone and we congratulate Mr..
Hammill upon being relieved from
these duties.

Regular Sale Of Dynamite.

The necessity of better regulation
of traffic in dynamite must be thor
oughly reinforced on most people by
recent events. The fatal experiences
that have been encountered of late
are sufficient to impress that. All
over the country the sale and use of
firearms are subject to certain re-
strictions and great hue and cry
has only of late gone up against even
the lax enforcement of the laws con.
trolling them. No doubt restric
tons on the sale of dynamite vary in
different places, but manifest either
one or two things is true-those reg
ulations are not, what they should
be, or they are not enforced.
1t should not be possible for an
unidentified derelict to buy all the
deathdealing explosives he has the
money to pay for Before anyone
bought an ounce he should have au,
thority from accredited sources, and
be able to satisfy the merchant as to
the use he intended making of it. If
the law were so framed as to impose
a responsibility for misuse of the ex,
plosive upon the merchant it might
help to bring about the desired re-
suits.
In the California cases that came
to light soon after the appalling de-
struction of life and property in Los
Angeles last autumn, evidence was
adduced to show that men neither
known to nor identified by San Fran
cisco merchants walked in and
bought all the dynamite they pleased
1t is folly to say that this traffic
could not be regulated. 1t might
not be possible to secure absolute
proof against perfdy, but certainly
there is room for great improve
ment. The gun habit is bad enough
but it is nowhere near the potential
evil of the dynamiter. One need
not jump to premature conclusions
in any of the cases now before the
public to appreciate the need of bet,
ter regulation of the sale of dynamite

Taxino Moneys and Credits.

The new bill affecting the taxation
of moneys and credits, passed by the
Iowa legislature recently, has been
signed by the governor and is now
the law of Iowa. 1t brings radica.
change in our system of taxation. In
brief it fixes the tax on moneys, mort
cages and all kinds of credits at five
mills; that is, no matter where you
live in Iowa, in city or country, if you
hold mortgages, notes or cash, you
will hereafter be required to pay tax
of only five mills on the amount. Here
tofore the tax has been extremely
burdensOme. If one lived in town and
had 81 900 loaned out, the tax has been
from $40 to $52, according to the
levies of the various municipalities
For instance, the levy in Traer this
year is eighty-two and half mills, or
over eight per cent. The tax on a
$1,000 note or mortgage is over 800
If the money is drawing six per cent
the tax is one-third of the income
Hereafter the $1,000 note will be
taxed only IS and if you live in the
country or in Toledo or any other
town your tax will be just IS on every
$1,000 you have loaned out on land.
This is small reduction to money
lenders in the country where the levies
are from twenty-five to forty mills, and
great reduction in towns whose
levies run from fifty to ninety mills.
The advocates of the law claim it will
bring much more money to the sur
face for taxation and result in lower
interest rates; that it will hold money
in Iowa instead of driving it into 9TH
err states that impose less tax upon
money or none at all. We believe
they are right. If the law makes mon
ey cheaper it will increase the value
of land and city property. 1t will
stimulate investments in Iowa. 1t will
be boon to the widows and retired
farmers who live in town and have
few thousand dollars on the in
come from which they are trying to
live. 1t will reduce perjury about
1000 per cent. In will increase thou
