According to Mr.. Hull, manufactur-

with the government and have waxed
fat For more than half a century
there has been a constant struggle by
the wealthy to shift the burden of tax

those weaker, poorer and less inHuen-

Statistics OF property valuations were
given by Mi. Hull to show that wealth

Its fair burden.
The census investigation, 1904, in
New York reported that the city had

The bank statement to the comptroller
tor the same month placed these de-
posits at S133, 100000.
The mayor Of Philadelphia recently
told the councils there that property In
that city had been undervalued more

In 1904 valued all real property at

ELEPHANTS AS WORKERS.

Since 1886 the export Of lockwood

price of the wood. it would not be
profitable to work 1t, even In these
days, without the elephant. In this
trade the Burmese elephants, massive
animals whose strength is almost un-
limited, are seen at their best as beasts
Of burden.

are purchased, before the trees are
felled, to the hour Of export on the
