Nation Wide APP
peal to Modify the
Income Tax Law.

indianapolis, Dec. 12.-The indianapolis
movement for a nation wide appeal to
Congress to suspend or modify the pro-
visions of the income tax law providing
deduction of the tax at the source and
the substitution of methods enabling the
government to obtain from taxpayers.
More than 1000 letters containing a copy
of a memorial recently adopted by the
chamber were sent to many cities, yes
terday advocating the change and So
Letting cooperation.
The memorial declared that the law
has been made unnecessarily obnoxious
by unreasonable and impracticable re-
quirements for deduction at the source,
and that the endorsement of it's require
ments will have disastrous results to
American securities, entailing losses
which will probably run into hundreds
of millions of dollars through the de-
moralization of the foreign market for
American bonds
The memorial further declares that the
requirements for deduction at the source
are impracticable; that the law is unjust
and that it is bewildering in its COM
plexities special committee has beer
appointed by the chamber to make plans
for obtaining concerted action on the
part of commercial organizations
throughout the country.

Plans of the Madawaska Training

STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Regular Meeting of tho Governor and
Council. at 10 A. M, tuesday, Dec %.

The officials in the Office of the secre-
tary Of State are at work getting out
tho blanks for the primary elections,
which will be held June Is, 1914. 1t Is
eouired by law that no papers can be
signed until after the first of January,
and that all must be returned to the
office by May 4, 1914. =
The law states that "all nominations
of candidates for any State or county
office, including United States Senator,
member of Congress and member OF
the State Legislature, shall hereafter be
made at and by primary elections to
be held in accordance with the proV1s-
ions of this act. The term political
parties" as used in this act, is here
by declared to mean such polit1cal
parties as at the gubernatorial cleo
ton next preceding any such primary
election polled at least one per cent OF
the entire vote cast in the State for
Governor. Nohing in this act shall be
construed as preventing the nominal
lions of candidates under Section of
Chapter Of the Revised Statutes.
In 1912, the entire number of votes
cast for Governor was 141, 002-so only
parties polling l per cent. of that num-
Der may take advantage of the prma
ries. The Prohibitionist candidate,
william ]. Sterling, received but 1911
votes and so this party is shut out OF
the primaries. And according to that
law the Progressives, who were not in
the last gubernatorial fight, are also
left out. Thus the only parties which
can take part in the primaries are the
Republicans, Democrats and Social
lists.
Attention is called to a change in the
law, limiting the number of ballots to
be printed for an election. At the last
state election there were printed for
the Socialists, who polled only 2081l
votes, $4,000 ballots, the same number
as for the Republicans and Democrats.
The new law, aimed to cut down such
needless expenses on the State print
ing bill, states Chapter ~, Sec. 81 of
the Public Laws of Maine) that there
shall be provided or furnished by the
secretary OF State for each voting
place or precinct at which an election
is held, not less than 60 Of each party
primary nominating ballots for every
60 votes and fraction Of SO votes cast
by that party in said voting place or
precinct at the next preceding cleo
ton, city, county, State or national,
corresponding to the election for for
which said primary election is to be
held and for which said ballots are
provided II the city. town or planta-
ton clerk deems that more than the
above number of ballots may be re-
quiIed by any party on account of an
increased enrolment, he shall so GER
tify, en- or before the date for fling
primary nomination papers. to the sec
rotary of State, who shall add the
number SO asked for the number OF
primary nominating ballots sent to
that city, town or plantation.
