2. BARLEY attended the bankers
convention at Madison last week.
Mr.. BARLEY found that the big bank
ers of the state are opposing the income
tax law and are doing what they can
to make the law unpopular. No
doubt. Any law designed to make a
certain class pay just proportion of
taxes is obnoxious to them. Mean.
while, the poor and middle class and
rich whose property is all in sight
pay much more than their just
proportion of taxes. An income tax
ought to help some in getting at tax
dodgers.

VIM. Hammond are building a barn
for John herman, on the west
prairie, this week.
