THE AUTOMOBILE TAI S MIL AND yoiD


The decision Of the Supreme Court in
the case Of State ". II. G.. Lawrence
knocks another Law passed by the Leg
islature to pieces. This Was tho act i'm
posing license Of from s. to $25 on
automobiles, the amount OF the license
being regulated By tho morse power Of
the machine.
Mr.. Lawrence runs m auto repair
shop in Jackson, deals in autos, and, ~
such dealer, pays ad valorsm and other
taxes on bis business and his stock. He
refused to pay the license for running
his auto on tho streets OF Jackson or
to place thereon the tag required by
the law, wherefore no was arrested.
tried on an agreed statement Of facts
and acquitted in Kinds county court.
The State appealed tho case, and tho
decision of the lowor court 10 affirmed.
Tho Supreme Court said in conclu-
sion: "Any clearly unnecessary ex-
pense imposed ID unreasonable. and its
imposition is an arbitrary exercise Of
governmental power. The only regu-
lation contained in this statute is tina
automobiles be registered and num-
bered. The expense necessary to be
incurred by tho State in registering and
numbering an automobile 10 loss than
$l.00, but the amount it desires to coli
lect. in order that it may be reimbursed
therefor. varies from s. to $25, accord
ing to horse power Of the engine by
which the automobile is propelled.
"It follows from those viows that the
statute is void under the due process
clause of the State and Federal Con.
stitutions. Affirmed"
This means that tho Auditor of the
State is going to have to return the sum
total of the many licenses he has col
lected, amounting to $28.50O. Just
what is to be done about the $700 or
$500 expense to which the Auditor has
boen put in furnishing tags remains to
be seen, but it is supposed the Legisla-
ture will reimburse him, as wcll as those
who paid the tax.

graduated on his victory.

"When your home merchant presents
you with his bill, do not allow the hair
on your head to rise like porcupine
quills and do not look as though you had
been insulted. The chances are he trust
ed you for the shirt on your back and
the groceries to keep your family.
Speak kindly to him who has accom-
modated you, for you know you like
prompt pay in others. A man whose
temper rises to 80 degrees in the shade
when asked for a just account and feels
his dignity has been trampled on is a
good man-not to trust"

Easy Money

Each week the exchanges OF the va.
ley tell OF merchants who have been
swindled by check forgers. There
seems to be regular wave OF this
branch of crime going on and some Of
the merchants contemplate taking
extreme measures to stop 1t. The
only remedy is to stop cashing checks
for strangers In order to add little
to your total sales. 1t is much bet
ter to miss sale to a stranger than to
cash a check for its payment and run
the risk OF losing the amount OF the
bill as well as the real money given In
change. Even though the forger Is
arrested and placed in jail, that don't
return what the merchant is out.
Ordway merchants have been for
tunate in this respect, or perhaps
their business methods are more con.
servativc. Not single forgery in
this immediate section has been re-
ported-and we predict is not apt
to be.

The bumpers at the pumping plant
are exasperated over the fact that at
the present time they are pumping
over 1000, 900 gallons of water each
day. aud they can't possibly get ahead
a single gallon OF water. They feel
that there is an enormous leakage or
else perhaps some are allowing their
hydrants to remain open the greater
part of the day, and the water is al
lowed to run to waste. This matter
of pumping water is a rather expen-
sive affair, because 1t costs money to
buy coal, to say nothing about the
wear and tear Of the machinery Incl

INDIAN PRAYS ON
CATHEDRAL STEPS
CHIEF THREE BEARS ASKS JUS
TICE FOR HIS PEOPLE OF THE
BLACKFOOT TRIBE.

New York, March 24-Hundreds of
persons in the Easter parade paused
before St. Patrick's Cathedral soon
after eleven o'clock and watched an
aged Indian, surrounded by nine mem
beFs of his tribe, pause at the top
of the steps, straighten his body,
clasp his hands and with gaze turned
toward the spires pray in his native
tongue that justice might be done
his race. It was Chief Three Bears,
of the BIackfoot Tribe, Glacier Park,
Montana, who with his fellow tribes
men is staying in New York
The Indians left their quarters on
the roof of the McAIpin Hotel and
walked up Fifth avenue to the cathe-
dral. Their picturesque costumes
gave an added touch of color to the
parade. All are Roman Catholics.
For five minutes Chief Three Bears
spoke in the Blackfoot tongue The
crowd which had gathered became
silent, and many persons bowed their
heads out of respect to the aged sup
pIicant.
What did he say?' I asked Chief
Big Top afterward
He pray for the government of
the United States and for justice for
his people, Chief Big Top answered.
Then he pray for the Great White
Father in Washington, and then for
the people of New York city He
say every one been so kind to US
here, every one so nice, and he ask
the Great Spirit of God to bless every
man, every woman, every little boy
and girl in all this big place. He
pray good luck for all of them. Then
he pray for Indians of Blackfoot tribe
way out in Glacier Park, Montana.
He ask that they have plenty to eat,
and clothing and good cattle and
horses
After leaving the cathedral the In
dams went to Central Park, where the
aged chief wept on seeing a buffalo.
TT remind him of when he see mil
lions of them and he so DID, Chief
Big Top explained
