High Water COndI-
tiOns

High water Is the all absorbing
topic at this time aud al watch the
gage that marks the Use in the river
and speculate as to whether the lower
part of the city Is TO be flooded or
not, aud whether the river Is likely
to come up high enough to go over
the dyke to the east of the city aud
flood cut the Milwaukee Lumbe
company's plant.
The planning mill furnishes the
power fort lectric light plant and
should the raise so as to go over
the dyke and~iood the planning mill
1t would Ont off the electric power.
This would not only plunge the in
tire city into darkness, but IL would
put the hundreds of motors in use all
over the city out Of commission and
practically paralyze business.
II the water should overflow the
dyke, much fear is felt for the safety
of the dyke, as 1t is doubtful If it
could stand the great pressure once
the water began to run over it, The
bursting of this would do incalouahle
damage to the farmers in the rich
valley protected by the dyke.
The damage already done to the
farmers on the flats down the river is
but a drop In a bucket to what tnis
would be.
Is It any wonder then that the citi-
zens of the entire valley are very bit

On the contrary. in its selfishness
It kept Its gates closed until the wat

of the dam. Without 10 any way in
terfering with its business, the bear
trap could have been left down all
winter aud the lake would then have
afforded a reservoir for the surplus
water that could not pass through the
dam during the high water stage, In
stead of forcing it to back up the rlv

still worse.

only Inference from the result is that

people who vote las DISTINGUISHED

noise) have made up their minds to
accept the measure of tariff reduction
provided in the present bill. This
conclusion is especially inferable
from the fact that apparently about
five thousand republicans didn't vote.
cit ought to be recorded that the
democratic victory was helped by the
fact that protective tariff republi-
can, Mr. Richard II. Long, who has
been in politics himself, who has
tried to get to congress as a republi
can, aud who, as a shoe manufactur.

Of The INCOME TAX
Author of Bill Says Measure Will
Pass Law Tests

Washington. May 2s.-nouble-riv
ed, air-iight. bomb-proof and safe
from any assaultsl That is the condl-
ton of the new income tax law, ac.
cording To its author. Representative
Cordell Hull, of Tennessee. He says
the bill is absolutely impregnablo
against attack in the courts.
THE TWO chief features Of the bill
which have been under fire." said
Representative Hin, are the clauses
fixing the graduated taX--the surtax
upon incomes according to their size
and the provision for taxation of
dividends at insurance companies
Both are beyond criticism of any fair
reach of persons who would attack
their constitutionality in the federal
courts"
As to the second contested feature
If the new law, which relates to tax
ing "divdends" of insurance compan-
protests from the big insurance COM
panies OF the east, Hull said:
In drawing that part of the hill
We used exactly the WOrd prescribed
in federal court decisions, To prevent
any test ot the law in the courts. II
you will examine the bil carefully
you Will note that We declare that
dividends OF the insurance compan-
les are taxable We did not use the
word revenue, or income. or proceeds
bat the word dividends This has
teen construed by the federal judi
ciary in the case Of knowlton versus
Moore. 20 mean the actual profits Of
the companies, derived not from over
charges to policyholders upon their
premiums, but ON their actual pro.
Ceeds from Investments. loans, real
estate rentals, etc. The courts de-
cided that the question of dividends
is u question of fact and not of law.
