BEBEL WROTE OF
 SHATTERED STATE
 OF GERMAN ARMY

London, Aug. 21-Rep1ying to a question whether Germany's recent army increases meant an attack on France, August Rebel, the late Ger man Socialist leader, just before his death at Zurich on August 13, last, wrote the following letter which is published, today, in the Pail Mall Gazette:
 The German Emperor has seen during the Balkan war that our army has completely gone to pieces-that is, our officers are incapable of com manding and the material is absolute Iy impossible. If the French had wished to attack us they would prob ably have been successful for we were not strong enough at the frontier. If the French had guessed that they were strong enough they would have begun an attack.
 'tThe German Emperor saw that French arms had had much greater importance in the Balkan war than had German ones. He also knew that the military element from Germany that had helped the Turks was to blame for the misfortunes of the Turks It is an open secret that Ger many was to blame for this defeat.''
 These facts, Bebel asserted, had been obtained from the best sources

~ Judge Taber's opinion is far
reaching in its effects and if sus-
tanned by the Supreme Court of
Nevada as may reasonably be as
sumed it will he. then every ex-
press company, railroad or similar
carrier including freighters, may
be taxed for the privilege of doing
business in this state.
Since Lincoln county has raised
the issue and received favorable
opinion from the court, it appears
that any other county in the state
can impose reasonable taxes on ex-
press or railroad companies to dc
business if they so desire.
Whether the American Express
company will appeal to the state
supreme court is unknown.

ON COMMON CARRIERS WITHIN NEVADA
GOVERNOR MUM ON SCANDAL;
JUDGE DENIES; Lawyer RAVES

Mack, Green & Heer counsel for
receiver Wildes says: The report
contains nothing that cannot be
answered satisfactorily.
The attorney asserts that Attor-
ney Thatcher misstates the facts
when he claims that Receiver
Wildas has paid and accepted sal
ary as deputy state treasurer while
acting as receiver for the State
Bank and Trust Company.
"The attorney general knew"
said the lawyer today, that the
portion of his printed report, al
leging that Wildes received this
salary was untrue at the time the
report was prepared. The fact of
the matter is that Wildes did not re-
ceive cent of salary as deputy state
treasurer after his appointment
as receiver.
"On account of the failure of
Treasurer Ryan to appoint deputy
treasurer in Wildes place. warrants
for the deputy treasurer's salary
had to be made out in favor Of
Wildes. .Wildes. however, refused
to accept the salary and at the re.
cent hearing of Judge Langan we
challenged the attorney general to
produce proof in support uf his
charge that Wil1es was receiving a
salary from the state while being
paid as a receiver for the State
Bank and Trust Company. He
admitted that he had no direct
proof to this effect. ....
''The report refers particularly
to my testimony relative to a trade
negotiated between the receiver
and the Keane- Wonder and Francis
Mohawk Mining and Leasing COM
panies. The report distorts and
warps my testimony in such man
ner as to make me out palpable
liar. r ..
"No positive allegations of wrong
doing or illegal acts against Ell
ther Receiver Wildes or Judge Lam
gan are made in the report. It is
all done by inuendo and is more
of document of vilification than

Carson City, July, 2-The report
of Attorney General Thatcher on the
reeeivership of the STATE Bank and
Trust company has stirred UP the
people of the state and the officials
implicated by his report worse
than any other affair in the his
tory of the state. On every hand
there appears to be commentator
for the stand the fearless Attorney
General has taken. Just what will
come Of the whole affair is yet in
doubt for Governor Oddie is side
stepping. He refuses to make any
public statement regarding the
| affair or make known his po sition or
what he proposes to do. In view
of the Governors reported political
ambitions it is believed he will
dodge the whole mess if he can in
order to not be committed one way
or another. 1t is not thought pro-

Gentlemen:-We apologize for
not writing an earlier reply to
your letter and thank you for the
forest trees. We plead rush of
work.
The trees were set out in a nurs-
cry with other trees, planted in
rows four feet apart and ten inches
in theS eSrows. This was done to have
them where they could have good
attention for a year or two and
get good root growth and be where
they could be cultivated, etc.
Of the trees you sent we have
not yet found but two that have
not grown exceptionally we'll. The
ash, maple, and catalpa are all in
full leaf and have sent out numer-
Gus new shoots which are several
inches long already. They are
really very pretty sight especial
ly the catalpa with their big
leaves.
The land they were planted on
was some of the poorest we have
being heavy in alkall compared to
the balance of the tract but the
trees couldn't possibly look bet
ter.
You may send US years sub
scription to your paper.
Wishing you success and thank
ing you for your trees and apprec-
iating your enterprise we are,
Yours very truly,

Judge Taber today rendered one
of the most important decisions
in the history of Nevada. He
holds that the state can force the
payment of a license or tax on
shipments of gold, gold dust. or
other precious metals or valuables
by an express company or other
common carrier shipping such gold
or valuables from one point to an
other within the state of Nevada.
.Jnage Taber however holds that
- part of the Nevada statute
x}T'lh seeks to tax the transportat-
jig of gold or other valuabIes from
I points within Nevada to points out
side the state is unconstitutional
as set up by the express company.
The defendent in this action, on
the grounds that the state of Ne
vada has in no way any jurisdiction
over interstate commerce ship
ments which are solely regulated
and controlled by the federal gov
ernment.
Some time ago the Nevada legis-
lature passed law taxing all ship
ments of gold and valuable metals
within the state and also 20 points
without the state. The authorities
of Lincoln county sought to enforce
the new law but the American Ex-
press Company refused to take out
q license 10 do business in Lincoln
County. The case was taken into
the Justices court in Caliente town.
ship in that county from which il
was pushed into the District Court
and came before Judge Taber fol-
decision. After careful perusaI
of the decisions in many states an6
federal courts, Judge Taber today
decides that 80 much Of the Neva
da law as affects shipments within
Nevada is legal and finding upor
all common carriers, railroads OF
express companies-but that part
Of the statute which seeks to taS
interstate shipments or traffic is un
constitutional and cannot be Ell
forced by the Nevada authorities
Judge Taber's opinion is baset
on strong precedent laid down II

Supreme Court where it was helt
that a state had the right to re
gulate or tax corporations withir
