WEALTH IN MIDDLE WEST


The commissioner of Internal reve
nue. made public the estimates or In
comes for the middle west.
These estimates show that far more
wealth Is distributed In Illinois out
side OF Chicago than In the city. The
commissioner of Internal revenue is
inclined to believe the reports are so
far from correct that he will not use
them to any extent in his plans for the
collection OF the income tax.
According to his statement. IL. 900
citizens of Chicago have incomes
ranging from $4,000 to $4,000 per
year, while 1880 citizens OF the
Eighth district, which has its head
quarters In Springfield, have incomes
within this scope. Only 5000 individ-
uals In the Fifth district, with head
quarters at Peoria, are listed.
Likewise In Indiana there Is a great
variance In districts. The collector
for the Sixth district reported over
5000 taxable incomes. and the col.
lector for the Seventh district reported
only 5000.
Large Fortunes In Iowa.
Iowa's incomes will be largely taxed,
the collector for that state reporting
nearly 1900 taxable fortunes. Wis
consin has a few over 10000, Michigan
close to 1000, and Minnesota about
1000.
A feature about the Minnesota In
come estimate is that the collector de
clares there are $50 men In the state
with incomes upwards of 800, 900 an
nually, while in Chicago the collector
reported only 35 persons with incomes
above the 800. 900 mark.
Large fortunes seem to predominate
In Minnesota, for there are 1000 men
rated with incomes between $40, 900
and Sac. Q0oz cas- AGAINST 500 in Chicago
and 1000 in the whole state of Iii
nois; 500 with incomes between 500,
600 and 500. 1000. as against It's 10
Chicago and 275 in Illinois, and $50
over 100000. as against so in Hi
nois.
Indiana and Michigan are also re.
ported as having large income bear
Ing fortunes over the $4,000 mark.
Figures for the Middle West.
The following table shows the va
rious taxable incomes In six middle
west states:

Another subject of discussion, and
one which is likely to introduce much

Uses to be the most significant that
has Yet been held by the Episcopal
church in this country.
There are d number OF questions con-
fronting the convention which are Of
vital importance to the church One Of
these is whether or not the House of
Bishops shall meet in open session
hereafter. 1t has been the custom for
FPS years for the House of Bishops to
meet behind closed doors.
At the forthcoming convention, how
ever, there will be a motion introduced
TO make the sessions open, not only to
the newspapers, but 10 the general pub
lie. as is the House of Deputies. A mo-
ton to this effect was offered by bish-
Op Potter many years ago at a cOnven-
ton in Baltimore 1t was voted down
at that time by an overwhelming ma
Jority. However, the present day lead
ers of the Episcopal church are said
to be in favor of the open session plan,
and it seems likely when the measure
is offered, it viii be quickly adopted.
AnnOintinEs Question Revised.
Another question almost certain to
arise, is that of instituting the prac-
tice of Amounting the sick with oil as
accompaniment to prayer. This cere-
mOny was advocated with great vigOr
by some of the younger members at the
Cincinnati convention, but the late J.
Nor laYman of the church, had so little
patience with the advocacy of this cere-
mony that he left the church with the
remark that he couldn't sit there and
listen to any more nonsense"
Morgan'S attitude, however, did not
alter the opinion of a number of young
clergymen who are champions of the
amounting ceremony, and there is ev-
cry likelihood that they will make an
issue of this wanted innovation.
There are also many elderly church

1t is not only dangerous, but need

There is no more effective remedy
known for kidney, bladder trouble, and

preparation, because it removes the
cause. 1t soaks right into the kidneys,
through the walls and Innings, cleans
out the clogged up pores, neutralizes
and dissolNes the poisonous uric acid

joints and muscles and cause those ter

utmost confidence that nothing on

that it is practically impossible to take
it into the human system without re-

Cimarron, Kan, April 1S.-The
CimarrOn Jacksonian, one of the lead
ing Progressive newspapers of western
Kansas, is making a hard fight on
Governor Hodges plan for commits
sion state government. The Jack
sonian says that all western Kansas is
against it Continuing it says:
1.-THE commission scheme is sup
posed to be progressive But is it
really progressive to deprive counties
of representation in the lawmaking
body of the state? If the commission
idea is all right, it would be exactly
as well for the eight congressman to
get together and make the laws for
Kansas. Why not save the state some
money by having the congressman
make laws between sessions of the ma
tional congress? This body would
represent the people every bit as well
as a commission such as suggested by
Governor Hodges, and the congress
men are just as able as any other men
that could be picked in similar man
ner."
