tariff bill to be amended materially
IN the senate He told his callers
today that he did not credit the re-
port that wool would be taken from
the free list. He has heard the views
OF many who desire retention of

him.

MERGER AGREEMENT OK'D
DISSOLUTION OF U. p. COMBiNA- TON APPROVED BY WILSON.
Sale of $ss.ooo,ooo of s. p. to Penn. sylVania, and Acceptance by U. p.
 of $42,ooo.ooo of B. & o.

St. Paul, Minn., July 1.-Bearing the o. K of President Wilson and Attor- ney-General McReynolds, the South ern' Pacific-Union Pacific merger dis solution plan was presented to the federal court here. It provides for the sale of $3S,000,000 of Southern Pacific stock to the Pennsylvania railroad and acceptance by the Union Pacific in return of $42,000,000 stock in the Baltimore X Ohio railroad the bal anCe of the Southern Pacific stock held by the Union Pacific to be held by trust company and not voted except at the direction of the court, and with the privilege of the share holders disposing of their interest or accepting Southern Pacific stock. In detail the plan provides:
 Sale of $3S,292, 400 Southern Pacific stock to the Pennsylvania railroad for $42,547,200 in Baltimore & Ohio stock.
 The trust company prior to Novem- Der 1 to offer pro rata to all Union Pacific stockholders the right to sub- scribe to certificates of interest repre- senting Southern Pacific shares. By January 1, 1916, certificate holders may receive the number of shares of Southern Pacific stock, represented by their certificate of interest with divi- dends from April l, 1913, without in terest, provided the certificate holder makes affidavit that he claims the shares in his own right and is not acting for any stockholder of the Union Pacific.
 After January 1, 1918, the trust company may at the direction of the court, sell outstanding certificates and proceeds to the lawful holder.
 The trust company at all times to be under the direction of the court and to apply to it for instructions at frequent intervals.
 Attorney-General McReynolds sub mitted a brief approving the plan. He holds that the exchange and transfer of stock to the Pennsylvania railroad obviously goes far to separate the merged railroads and divests the Pennsylvania of a large amount oe the capital stock of an active competitor, and thereby remedies a highly objec- tionable condition"
 He recommended also that the plan be sanctioned only under the express understanding that the government grants no immunity from possible fu- ture actions based on any future laws as to stock ownership. A carefully drawn decree is to guard this feature of the plan.

philanthropy.
President Wilson deals at length with
the Roosevelt, or third party. pro-
gramme. regarding the regulation of
trusts as outlined in the platform of
that party in the last Presidential cleo
ton
The phrase, the national administra-
ton having for sixteen years been vir-
tually under the regulation of the
trusts" indicates clearly the Presidents
ideas about the administrations of his
two predecessors.
The article, in part. is as follows:
Our purpose is the restoration of free
dom. We purpose to prevent private
monopoly by law, to see to it that the
methods by which monopolies have been
built up are legally made impossible.
We design that the limitations on pri-
vate enterprise shall be removed, so
that the next generation of youngsters.
as they come along. will not have to
become proteges of benevolent trusts,
but will be free to go about making their
own lives what they will; so that we
shall taste again the full cup. not OF
charity, but OF liberty-the only wine
that ever refreshed and renewed the
spirit OF a people.
Wants No benevolent Master
"Mr. Roosevelt's conception of govern
ment is Mr.. Tafts conception. that the
Presidency OF the United States is the
presidency of a board of directors
am willing to admit that IL the people
of the United States cannot get justice
for themselves. then 1t is high time
that they should join the third party
and get it from somebody else. The
Justice proposed is very beautiful: it is
very attractive! there were planks in
that platform which stir all the SYM
pathies Of the heart; they propose things
that We all want. to do. But the ques-
ton is. who is going to do them?
Through whose instrumentality? Are
Americans ready to ask the trusts TO
give us, in pity, what We ought, in
justice, to take?
THE third party says that the present
system of our industry and trade has
come to stay. Mind you, these artificially
built up things. these things that can't
maintain themselves in the market with
out monopoly, have come to stay, and
the only thing that the government can
do. the only thing that the third party
proposes should be done, is to set up
a commission to regulate them.
Don't You realize that this is a blind
alley? You can't find your way to liberty
that wav.
Shall We try to get the grip of monop-
oily away from our lives or shall we not?
Shall We withhold our hand and say
monopoly is unsuitable. that all we can
do Is to regulate it? Have we come to a
time when the President of the United
States or any man who wishes To he
President must doff his cap in the pres
ence Of this high finance and say, You
are our inevitable master, but We will
see how we can make the best Of it.
IT don't care how benevolent the mas
ter is going to be, I will not live under
a master. That Is not what America
was created for. America was created
in order that every man should have
the same chance as every other man to
exercise mastery over his own fortunes

Care Taken in District to Prevent
Selling Property to Pay Taxes
System of Collection in District Treated in Article in the Bos
ton Transcript-Two Years Are Allowed Delinquent
to Redeem Property After 1t Is Sold.

The Boston Transcript in a long article
refers to one phase Of the tax-collection
system in Washington as follows:
''No tax bills are sent out. and the
owner who ignorantly falls to send for
his bill finds himself assessed an addi-
tional charge of % per cent on personal
estate and l per cent month on real
estate. His own house may be sold over
his head for taxes or special assessments
without word of notice to him that
any charges are due"
In explanation Of the above the follow
ing information from the office OF the
assessor Is Of value:
Each year tax books are prepared and
completed before November !. at which
time the collector inserts an advertise
ment that he is ready to receive taxes
These taxes can be paid one-half in Mo-
vember and one-half In May, a. the OPP
ton Of the owner. otherwise the whole
amount is required to be paid during
May or before June l of each year. The
assessments are levied against the
square and lot or parcel of ground and
in the name Of the owner. and bills are
only delivered by request. This practice
The Washington herald., 1913-04-02

is followed in most of the large cities
and In New York, where we have the
heaviest taxpayers. they not only do not
deliver the bills. but they do not even
assess by the name Of the owners and
require the taxpayers to call for their
bills by the lot and square number.
Penalty Is Added.
II bills are not paid in Washington be-
fore the first of June a penalty of per
cent is added for each month thereafter
until the bill is paid. and a pamphlet. Civ
ing list Of all delinquents. is published
in February of each year. Several weeks
before the publication OF this pamphlet
notices are sent to all delinquents and
every effort Is made to reach all tax
payers before the time of sale, which
occurs in March.
After the sale the delinquent party is
allowed two years to redeem his prop
erty, and before the end of the redemp-
ton period another notice Is sent out.
stating that deed will be issued to the
purchaser unless the property is re-
deemed before a certain date.
In cases OF all special assessments for

with you that there are some men In

An act requiring a delivery of the bills

needless expense and would be source

WILSON'S Stand

President, in Fourth Article
on "The New Freedom"
States His Attitude.
THIRD PARTY IS RAPED
Wants No Master, No Matter How
Benevolent He Is, Says
Chief Executive.
THIRD PARTY IS RAPED

President Woodrow Wilson makes a
declaration of his attitude toward mo-
nopolies and indicates what is believed
by many to be the course the admin
istration will pursue to secure pos
sible remedy for this condition by the
terse, but specific, statement: I'VE pur-
pose to prevent private monopoly by
law in his fourth article on THE New
Freedom" which appears in the current
issue of Worlds Work.
The President declares that under such
