claim, that 1t puts too great a tax on the people and, also, at the same time, and almost in the same breath, that the law, as it now stands, already provides for just what this measure is seeking. This may be true in the ab- stract, but it is evidently not doing what it's friends and advocates claim for it, for it is too well known, for controversy or denial, that property is taxed at not more than half of it's value, and a great deal of 1t IS not taxed at all We admit, that, in sub stance, there is good deal of differ ence in the details, in the machinery for carrying it into execution, and hereby hangs the tale of woe that overwhelms the man who does not want to bear his portion of taxation. If every mans, every corporations property of every species is placed on the tax books as it should be done, un- der the machinery of the T.-J. bill for carrying it into effect, then there will be no one man or one corporation pay ing more tax than another on the same kind of property, and there will be no property escaping taxation that ought to be taxed When this is done the rate goes down and we will then be paying less money on full value of our taxable property than we are now paying on the half value; and for the simple reason that there will be four times as much property on the tax books as we now have on them.
 Every man who has sense enough to stalk an old buck on a cold frosty morning or chase bullfrog for fish bait in the good old summertime knows that the state has to raise more revenue from some source, since its expenditures are greater than its in come. and this extra amount of money must either be raised by placing more property on the tax books or by rais ing the tax levy. To raise the tax levy would only increase the burdens of the present taxpayer, to put th' tax-dodger on the tax books would only make him come up with his enc
 of the log, and would bear heavily ol
 no one. This is the claim made fo1
 the T.-J. bill by it's friends, and fo
 this reason it is well to lay all dema
 goguery and baldface assertion
 aside and investigate it closely Monticello Monticellonian.

THAT SORE TOOTH.

That sore tooth needs your atten- tion as much as a sore on any other part of your body. If you had a sore hand or foot or ear, you would have it attended to, wouldn't you? Your sore tooth is as important as any of these organs. Have it attended to now, before it gets worse. EXamina- tions free.

THE TURNER-JACOBSON BILL

The above measure will not come up for solution and settlement in the prl- mary election. but since it is being generally discussed by candidates for office, it will be a good time, and af- ford an excellent opportunity for the people to consider it and familiarize themselves with it's provisions and principles, in order that they be able to vote upon it intelligently at the September election. The object of the bill is to place all taxable property in the state on the tax books at it's fair value, as the constitution requires should be done as every revenue law since the adoption of the constitution has specifically provided, and as the oath of both the assessor and the as sessed demand.
 If this is not legitimate, just and right, the Turner-J acobson bill ought to be defeated, the former revenue laws repeaeld and the constitution amended.
 Those who oppose the Turner-Ja- cobson bill do so for the reason, they

Unde- liverable perishable matter which does not become offensive or injur- ious to health may be turned over to local municipal authorities to be dis tributed to hospitals, asylums or other similar institutions.
 Provision is made in the law for the indemnification of shippers for lost packages. The law prescribes that by insurance the actual value of lost packages will be given to the senderS. Postmaster General Hitch cock has devised unique system for handling insured parcels. consisting of a shipping tag printed with two coupons, one of which is torn off and given to the sender, the second re- tained by the postmaster at the sending office, the tag itself being attached to the parcel and bearing the name and address of the person to whom it is to he delivered The fe,. for this insurance is ten cents.

Jap ARTIST HIS OWN MODEL
Has Carved Figure Of Himself In
Wood Which Appears to Be ldcntI-
cal With Original.

One Of the most marvellous work.
men in the world is Hananuma Ma
sakichi of Toxic, Japan, who has
carved a figure in wood, so like him
self, that when the two are placed
together, side by side, it is said to be
also impossible to tell which lives
and which does not.
BY several connosseurs in art this
wooden figure is pronounced the
most perfect and human image of
man ever made. Masakichi has faith
fully reproduced every scar, vein
and wrinkle to be seen on his own
body. The figure is composed of
two thousand pieces of wood, dove
tailed and jointed with such wonder
full skill, that no seams can be de-
tected.
The japanese artist posed be-
tween two mirrors while modelling
this figure, and for some time after
its completion, he posed frequently
beside it, to the confusion of spec
tators, who we're often entirely at
loss as to which was the artist. The
figure stands with a little mask in
one hand, ard an instrument for
carving in the other; the lifelike
eyes are apparently gazing at the
mask, and the face wears a look Of
intense absorption.
