Onitting the Hill ore land leases, the
minority hndS that the steel corporation
still controls so to So per cent OF the
Lake Superior high grade ores and 35 to
90 per cent Of the ores In the Birming-
ham district
On the ground that II can not be done
without injecting a political dispute. the
minority does not discuss the absorp-
ton Of the Tennessee Coal & Iron COM
pany by The steel corporation, which
Mr.. Young discusses this in his report.
The minority says 1t Is definitely OF the
opinion that the true remedy Of the
in compulslon OF federal incorporation,
but the minority admits the American
people may not yet be ready for this
remedy and suggests one more try OF
the Sherman antitrust law. after IL is
radically strengthened.
The Republican members agree In sub
stance with the bills amending the law
as prepared by the Democrats. although
the minority expresses the view that still
more amendment may be needed.
Young's Dissent.
Representative Young filed d dissent
ing report concerning the restrictions
against the ownership Of common car
riers by industrial corporations. Young
says the interstate commerce commits
sion is now empowered to deal with this
situation. and he Furthermore asserts that
the power to fix prices of industrial cor
porations is not necessary to the effi-
cheney OF federal control
In an individual report Representative
Sterling. a Republican. says he cannot
concur in all the recommendations for the
Stanley committee, He approves federal
Incorporation to eliminate 'watered"
stock. but emphaticaly dissents from the
plan TO have federal regulation OF prices.
II the price Of the finished product Is
fixed by the government. he argues. the
price OF the labor and raw materials must
also be regulated by the government.
Such a condition to my mind. would
be subversive of the principles OF free In
sttutions and free men,. says Sterling.
He also disagrees with the minority when
they state that dissolution OF trusts Will
meet the situation.
81 am Of the opinion that dissolution OF
great industrial combinations into their
integral parts would do much to restore
trade 10 a natural and healthy condition. "
he adds. The federal government by
proper legislation. Sterling asserts, can
resolve corporations into integral parts
ano by just regulation of corporations
powers restore proper conditions in trade.

The Eject Of the Courts Decision ir
The Case Against
Smith.
Means m Addition to the States Re
eeivers Of About 100000
Per Year.
A Statement Of the Issues Dec ided
By the Court.

CHARLESTON. W. Va. Feb. T.
The decision Of the Supreme Court
yesterday in the case brought by the
State Tax Commissioner against
Sheriff Smith OF Kanawha County Is
regarded with great satisfaction about
the State House. In the Tax Commits
sioner's once today. IL was said that
the decision was a complete vindicat
ion OF the policies OF the Tax Commits
sioner's Office. State Tax Commits
sioner Fred o. Blue. in discussing the
matter stated to a Representative o.
the Intelligencer:
The questions involved in the case
were the following:
-(a)-Whether or not the sheriff is
entitled TO interest on taxes collected
by him where the taxes are paid az.
ter the first day OF January.
-tb)-Whether the law requires
sheriffs and other county officers to
pay Is per cent fees into the county
treasures.
tc)-Whether the sheriff is entitled
to ~ per cent OF per cent for col
lecting road taxes
The court holds the sheriff must 40
count for the interest and must pay
the fifteen per cent into the treasury.
and that he is entitled TO seven and
one half per cent for collecting road
taxes.
This decision Is of far-reaching ef-
feet, as IT means about s250.0OO. OF
public moneys now held by the pres.
ent sheriffs and the immediate ex
sheriffs will have TO be paid into the
treasures OF the several counties, and
that hereafter about S125 900 TO $685.
600 Will have TO go into the county
treasures every year which has not
heretofore been going there. The
sheriffs won on the point OF compen
sat.on for collecting road taxes, which
means TO them about $4,000 each
year.
The finding in favor OF the sheriffs
on the road commission does not ef.
feet anw OF the audits made. for the
| reason that We have never required
the sheriffs TO account upon the basis
of seven and one half per cent. but
! have reported IL as an open question
and. besides. the act did not 10 into
effect until May. 1909. and therefore
does not relate 10 any OF the former
sheriffs
In my opinion. no more important
case has been decided by the Supreme
/ Court OF this state since Us organ
! ization."

WHERE he STANDS.
intimstes Ne 10 Paying No Attention
to the Charges" and "Has Not
Decided"

NEW YORK, Feb. with the cor
respondence OF Abraham Lincoln as
text book and six newspaper reporters
~ pupils. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
addressed to-day what he called his
'frst class In applied decent politics"
Colonel Roosevelt prefaced his talk
with the declaration that he mad tried
to take Lincoln's letters as a guido
for himself. and he thought that ex-
cerpts from many or the maryred
Presidents letters would make proper
replies to questions that are being
asked him daily.
One of Lincolns letters especially.
Mr.. Roosevelt thought. would apply
10 conditions confronting him to-day.
This was n letter written at Spring
field on April s, 1860. to e. r. Mcneil
The part emphasized by Mr.. Roosevelt
reads as follows:
Il have made this explanation 10
you as friend: but | wish no expla-
nation made 10 our enemies. What
they want is a squabble and n fuss.
and they can have Il IL we explain.
and they cannot have II if We don't.
Can't Force Declaration.
Another missive read by Colonel
Roosevelt was Lincolns confidential
lstter TO A. Jonas. written on June
Fl. 1860. In part, IL said:
And now word OF caution. Our
adversaries think they can gain a
point II they could openly force me
TO deny the charge. by which some
degree of offense would be given 10
the Americans. For this reason il
must publicly appear that | am pay

London, July 2s.-seven girls were killed, five were fatally injured and several others severely~injured in 8 fire today in g four story building in Moor Lane. in the heart of the city, occupied by celluloid Christmas card manufacturers, who employed many females. The fire started in 8 front room on the top floor and spread quickly. To reach the stairs the girls in the back room had to pass through the front room. and before they real fixed their danger the flames had cut off the means of escape.
 In few minutes the back room was ablaze, Some of the girls managed 10 reach the roof and escaped by crossing 2. plank to the next building. ten feet distant. but one lost her footing and fell. Two were seized by the flames before they could gain the bridge, and large number leaped from the win doWs to the pavement, several of them being horribly mangled. Five of the girls were burned to death.
