The State Tax Commission has al
ready discovered hundreds of corpor-
ations that escaped paying special tax
es during Republican administrations,
and new ones are constantly being
forced to disgorge. Recently 13 for
eign corporations, that Republicans
had permitted to dodge the capital
stock tax, were certified for collection
They will pay into the state treasury
So, $50 54-a clear gain in revenue.
From certihcations SO far made. it
is probable that the states income
from foreign corporations will exceed
$345 900, compared with $214,842 last
year. The tax commission has certi-
fed 129 more corporations than were
found by the secretary of state in
1909
The figures show that the negli-
gence of Republican officers in collect
ing the Willis capital stock tax cost
the state $125,00O. 1t would startle
the public if figures could be obtained
to show the aggregate taxes that cor
| porations escaped paying in former
administrations. Anyway Republican
campaign funds were always large.

The entire cost of the convention
excepting the printing was s172,4966s,
which was, as usual, S2,496.6S in ex-
cess of the appropriation. The print
ing cost was $2,9OS.72.
The members of the convention were
paid only SIS day for the time the
convention was actually in session
Their per diem with the mileage to
which they were entitled to amounted
to $138,396.74, and that of the officers
of the convention to $11, ,254.16.
The delegates to the coming con
vention are to be paid just as members
of the legislature are, which is $1,000
year with mileage to and from home
every two weeks.

The whole tax program of the pres
ent administration and it's history can
be set forth in perfect clearness in
just II words, as follows:
Governor Harmon and the legisla-
ture said,
If all property be fully and honestly
returned for taxation; and,
If tax-dodging corporations be COM
PEELED to list their property at full
and fair values; and,
If expenses be kept within reason
able bounds of economy,
Then, will a much lower tax rate
even a low rate in many places, be
adequate to raise sufficient money to
run the government.
And this has been accomplished.

stood solidly by the Smith law and
Mr.. Hunt was elected. The returns
indicate to me concusively that the
people are in favor of a law that will
reduce the taxes of home owners. 1t
makes another thing clear to me. The
Democrats are going to sweep Ohio
next year, beyond doubt, unless
something now unforeseen happens.
Senator Johnson, who led the fight
against the Smith act on behalf OF
the Republican state organization, was
candidate for city solicitor. He went
down with the rest"
Henry T. Hunt, mayor elect Of Gin
cinnati, is one of the strongest young
men that has come to the front in
Cincinnati in many years." said Mr..
Devanney. "He is incorruptibly hon
est, is popular and his work in public
office has demonstrated he stands for
good government.
But the popularity of the Smith low
tax rate law and the approval that the
people have given to Governor Har
mon for practically forcing it through
the general assembly and their desire
to endorse the policy, were factors
that contributed to the success of the
Cincinnati ticket. In saying this l dt
not desire to detract any Of the credi
due Mr.. Hunt. After the result wal
known, Republican leaders publicl.
acknowledged they erred in attacking
the Smith law and its sponsor, thereb,
making it vital issue in the cam

Columbus. O., Nov. 16-Efficient
work by members of the State Tax

while railrods pay per cent. Estimat-
ed earnings of railroads for 1910 were
$392S9,521, while the reported earn
ings for this fiscal year are $44,911,-

Judge r. M. Dittey of the State Ia,
Commission, and j. w. Devanney, o
Cincinnati, executive clerk in tn,
Governors Office, both say the election
result in Cincinnati demonstrates tina
the low tax rate law is popular in th
Queen City.
"The lection in Cincinnati demon
strated to my mind beyond a doub
that the people stand for and believ
strongly in the l per cent tax law,
said President r. M. Dittey of tn
State Tax Commission yesterday.
''The issue was failly and squarel
presented. In all their advertisin

OUR GRAND JURY.

Yesterday the grand jury which con- venes every spring about this time was sworn in and immediately commenced to take up their work. There ia a little work for them in cases that have come up in the commissioners courts through the Second judicial division. since last fall, and their attention no doubt will from time to time be called to matters pertaining to the welf of the city as well us Seward Peuinst
 During the past winter Nome has been what could be termed a model city, peopled with law abiding citizens. so there appears to be little work to be taken up during the present aes- sion of the grand jury. But from the number of mining. business and pro- fessional men constituting the grand jury there should be nothing overlook ed in the way Of trying to better the conditions of Alaska as a whole.
 There are many needs in the way of reforms that are of long standing and should the grand jury find time to take up some Of them, they win be forum ate in having the assistance of United States District Attorney E. k Rodey to advice them in such matters. Mir. Rodey Is man of large experience in drafting petitions for reforms. having gained the same in his pioneer life in the United States and in some of our recently acquired possessions.
 There is no question Of doubt but what Alaska, as well as Seward Pen insula is in dire need of drastic re- forms in the way of legislature. espe- cially applicable to our mining laws. Stalking and holding Of claims and the proper manner 10 perform the annual labor required by the government to vest title in the holder. We need spe- cial laws to meet the peculiar existing conditions of this country. SO far re- moved from civilization for nearly eight months out of the year.
 There are several mining men on the grand jury and good strong recom- mendation endorsed by that body call ing attention to some of the reforms needed in the way Of legislature, would not come amlss in the near future when there is a favorable chance for congress to act. Also such recommen- dations from the grand jury would be it and proper to present to the con gressional committee when they visit our section of Alaska this summer.

ningham, seamstress, who had been
 knocked down by an automobile and
 had her leg broken. But they provided
 a chair for her and generously per
 mitted her to shiver and suffer in the vestibule while she waited for an am bulance. Real charity" seldom goes as far as that. They could have wait ed until they received a doctors cer- tificate that the woman's leg really was broken and that she was not imposing on them. That is the right procedure. especially with injured and starving people.
 Now. the vanderbilts are quite right in not wanting people suffering and dying all over their home. They really have bother enough in that line. with men, women and children inconsider- ately being slaughtered on the New York Central or on Death avenue. Must the shadow of suffering always pursue them? Besides. they got no profit from the accident. It was one of those minor things that happen outside the routine of money making and business.
 The woman, writhing with pain and numb with cold. sat for over half an hour in the vestibule before the ambu- lance arrived. A policeman held her upright and did what he could for her Several ladies came to the inner door. looked through the glass. shuddered and went away. When the suffering woman was carried of. servants spread carpets from the door to the curbing. automobiles came along. and the Van derbilts departed for the opera.
 Fortunately. they are good, sensible people. or the sight of a stricken, poor. suffering woman might have taken the edge off their appetite for an evenings feast of music. But perhaps they con slider this all part of the worlds his tory, for scarcely a day passes in the business from which they draw their enormous revenue that there is not an item to the effect that some worker has met death pr mutilation creating wealth for them. So why intrude the sufferings of others upon them?
 Furthermore. the yanderbilts are charitable people and possibly give as much as one cent out of every hundred dollars income for the relief of the suffering poor. But the poor to de- serve this bounteous handout. have to be mighty poor and really deserving. They have their hospitals, to which they may be admitted if there is room. They have their out relief. Above all. they have various excellent men and women who are paid to give them good advice

 another old familiar land mark has been obliterated in connection with Nome. This is a year when Father of Time Is paying strict attention to those who have lived the age limit as set 10th fin the Bible. and until he has performed his work we are not liable to appreciate in full just what these old familiar land marks mean to any camp, city or town. When you come across a person who has lived the allotted three score years and ten. you can take it for granted there has been lot of goodness and moderation mixed in with their lives for the age limit Is an ever living monument Of such facts.
 Nature is a wonderful piece of ma chinery as exhibited in the human race, but like any other piece of ma chinery it will stand just SO much abuse. and no more. The greatest of sins should be a violation of one Of natures laws and modern society real izes this in it's struggle for a perfect race.
 Should the government once tumble to this fact. as the German nation has. l the United States would be productive of race of people that would cause the shades of the olden time gladiators to blush. But if the government allows trusts to sell and preserve artificial food stun, even under a somewhat ob- scure label. we. or this country will develop into a race of dyspeptics that will in time be lost in some other nation much the same as the GauIs after the standard Of civilization was started northward and westward bv the Romans.

 It is all we'll enough for boys 10 go trapping and fishing. but there are so many accidents in connection with guns that they should be forbidden to pack them around. not only through the streets but out on the tundra and into the hills.
