oners caught in such work, Creighton
and his little band Of Americans are
cutting tracks and burning bridges
south of Juarez faster than the fed

ed the insurrecto threat to cut off
Rabago and Cuellar from Juarez. and
they are also cut off from Chihuahua.
Juarez Is now garrisoned only by a
few hundred men, and the insurl &C

gathered along the border for an at.
tack on the town If Madero proves
successful in his campaign against
chihuahua. which he now has be-
sieged.
A battle was fought in the vicinity
of Santa Rosalia, Chihuahua, last
Friday. The insurrectos had pre-
pared to attack a train and rob It,.
believing it TO be merely a freight
train. When they got close TO It the
federals opened with machine guns
inside their armored cars and the in
surrectos retreated, leaving many
slain.

Washington, March 14.--The con-
stitutionality Of the corporation tax
provision of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
law, one OF President Taft's pet
measures, was unanimously upheld
by the supreme court of the United
States In a decision In Is cases arls-
ing In various parts of the United
States. The law brought in about
S27,0O0OOO last year.
The cases came to the supreme
court from the federal courts of Yer.
mont, New York, Illinois, Ohio Mas
sachusetts and Minnesota, and in.
cluded corporations engaged in real
estate business, mining. manufactur.
ing, transportation, life insurance
and merchandising. In each case
one or more of the stockholders ap-
piled to the courts for an injunction
to restrain the officers Of the corpo-
ration from paying the tax on the
ground that 1t was unconstitutional.
Day Gives Reasons.
First OF all, Justice Day declared
that the contention that the law was
unconstitutional because IT original
ed in the senate in the form Of an
amendment to the Payne law, was
untenable. He said the constitution
provided for amendments IN the sen
ate to revenue laws, though they
must originate In the house.
ut has been urged that this would
be a tax on the ownership OF bust
ness" he said. "As we construe the
statute, it is tax on the doing OF
business, not upon ownership.
"This Is an excise tax upon the
privilege of doing business. The pro
vision for an excise tax in the con.
stitution makes only one stipulation
that the tax shall be equal; that is,
geographically the same all over the
country.
at Is next contended that the at.
| tempted taxation Is void because II
levies tax upon the right of a state
to grant corporate franchises; be-
cause II taxes franchises which are
the creation of state in its sover.
eign right and authority.
I'VE think II is the result OF cases
heretofore decided by this court that
such activities, though exercised be
cause Of state-created franchises, arc
not beyond the taxing power Of the
| United States"

General William II. Carter, who is in

army now mobiizing in Texas, said
that the massing of 10000 troops

ment was simply pursuant to a de-
siFe on the part of the general staff
at Washington to test the new field
service regulations. In making this
statement General Carter broke the
scrupulous silence that he had main.
tained since his arrival at the big
camp at Fort Sam Houston on Sat.
utday morning.
Within an hour of the time that
General Carter thus explained the
reason for the hasty assemblage of
all branches Of the service along the
1900 miles of foreign border, a
trainload OF cavalry recruits from
Columbus, o., pulled into the rail
road yards a mile from the camp.
The recruits and their officers did
not detrain, but remained in their
cars. They left over the Southern
Pacific line for Eagle Pass, on the
Mexican border, this morning. They
go to swell the number of the Third

Carter Makes Statement.
This is what General Carter had
20 say:
at is untrue that we are holding
any cars on the railroad lines for
possible sudden dispatching of troops
anywhere, and If the railroads are
prepared to meet the demands for
the removal of troops there is no
significance in the fact beyond the
clerical spheres of the respective
railroads.
president Taft and Major General
Wood both told me before | left
Washington that the purpose Of the
present mobilization was merely to
test the new field service regulations
concerning this movement, in order
that It might be proved TO the gen.
eral that division mobilization in
quick time is possible. Upon the sue
cess Of this movement depends the
possibility Of the mobilization of di-
visions of the militia also"
Various Officers here, in comment
ing on General, Carter's statement,
said they had no doubt but that
everything he had said was true, but
that possibly he had not told every.
thing he knew.

HOW PUBLICITY PAYS.

The census of 19l0revealed the fact
that while both South Dakota and
North Dakota had made good growth
during the proceeding decade, the
percentage of increase in North
Dakota has been much more rapid
The population of South Dakota was
shown to be 5S2,SS8 which was an iu.
crease of 10 A per cent, while the
population of North Dakota was 577,-
076, or an increase of so per cent
While South Dakota was gaining
l82,3Sl in population North Dakota
gained 259,9lO.
There was just one reason for this
publicity North Ddkoth ad@ef;ized
during the last ten years; South Da-
kota didn't. The result was per.
centage of growth in North Dakota
nearly twice that of South Dakott.

his manag ment, North Dakota made
fine exhibits at the st Louis exposi.
tion, and other fairs, aud Mr.. Glbreatt
saw to it that few states bad better
exhibits than was the one offered
by North Dakota. He obtained the
names and addresses of the thousands
of people who called TO look at these
exhibits, and thus secured selected
list of interested persons. He was al
that time Publishing the North Da

what North Dakota was doing. Their
the story goes:
''The North Dakota Magazine was
sent to every visitor to the North Da

At the end OF four years Gilbreatt

For paper that is not progressive
the Argus Leader is taking much in
terest in what the progressives may
do in this state in regard to Taft
1t attempts to carry the idea that
it is well informined as to the state
of the progressive mind and declares
that many of the progressives are in
favor of the denomination of Mr..
Taft. The A. L. NAV have some IN
side information along this line, but
from what little we know of the
progressive sentiment we believe the
A. L. is uuwarranted in making the
claim that any considerable portion
of the progressives are in favor of Mr..
Taft. The record so far made by the
president is not at all progressive.
