THE SOURCE OF SUPPLY.
Man Who Buys Goods Away From,
Home Town Is a Detriment.

One Of u citizens is going to build a
house next spring. He expects to buy
the lumber in Illinois, the mill work in
Iowa and the furniture somewhere
else. The paint also he will buy by
mail. He doesn't expect to buy any
thing in this town. All he expects this
town to furnish is the money to pay
for the stuff.
He is one of those fellows who be-
lieve it is more blessed to receive than
to give. He believes that the accept
ance of a thing carries with it no OBJ
legation to reciprocate. He thinks it is
entirely right that the town should
support him, but entirely wrong that
he should be expected to help support
the town.
When he asks you to stop a moment
to admire his new house you might
also stop a moment longer to admire
his gall.
There IS one con~solation-he will
probably get stung.-American Lum-

A decision, which if sustained
by the supreme court, will be far
reaching in it's effect, was hand
ed down last week by Judge j. A
Coffey, Of the jamestown Dist
riot. Judge Coffey holds that the
fees paid into county courts by
estates is in fact a tax, that the
property has been previously tax
ed for the general maintenance
of the county, and that tins fee
is double taxation, and therefore
unconstitutional. The salary Of
the county judges and clerks are
paid directly out Of the general
fund Of counties, and the fees col
lected from estates while theore-
tically collected to pay for such
salaries and the maintenance Of
the court, are converted directly
into the general fund Of the
counties. If this decision should
be sustained by the supreme coul'
to which body it has been APP
pealed, it would result in cutt-
ing down county revenues inn
