When men affirm and swear to tho
truth of tax return, II Is reasonable
to suppose that II Is truthful re-
turn. This Is especially true when
such oaths and affirmations come
from some of the most respected and
substantial people in the city.
That's why the present case Is 50
sad. III tax returns are to be believ-
ed, then Marion, as a city. Is one Of
the biggest "fourflushes that ever
happened. why bless your soul there

Just that, FIFTY dollars seems to be
the prevsilihg" price. A few are in
for s75. a couple for 500 and one
at $3.50. And that's the best plano in
town. Can this be?
ssASuresit says so on the return.
And as to the matter of automo-
bTles. we'll there's only one machine
in Marion worth $4,000, about half a
dozen are In for 1900 and the great
bulk of them are on for amounts
ranging from $50 to $3.50. It's simply
surprising how much great. roomy,
showy ponderous automobile value
one can get for S400-if the tax re-
turns are 10 be believed.
Auto owners claim that running a
machine around block the first time,
knocks half the value out of It. That's
why 81 500 and $4,000 machines pur-
chased last summer are returned for
$3.50 and S4O0. This depreciation is
seemingly terrible. The records OF
the county clerk show that l47 licens-
es have been issued but the tax re-
turns do not show This many machines
some of them having apparently
deteriorated to such apolntthat moth
