the difficulties that has stood in the
way of clear comprehension of the
terms of the income tax law among
foreign investment brokers and banks
in regard to the procedure necessary
in the case of aliens who hold invest
ments in American securities.
In a ceircular letter to collectors. the
bureau points out that while coupons
or orders for registered interest paya-
bic in the United States representing
interest on bonds owned by non-resi-
dent aliens, must be accompanied by a
certificate to this effect, the certifi-
cate may be signed either by the owner
or in his behalf by a reputable banker
or collecting agency.
The certificate must give the name
and address of the alien and when
proper certificate is made the normal
one percent tax need not be withheld
at the source by the agency.

HAYS HANDS OFF

It is reverted here that Governor George w. Hays has served notice on all the candidates for United States senate that he does not intend to med dle in their fight. Judge Hays is re- ported as having said that he is friendly with all the candidates and that the people of the state will not relish political governor at this time. He says he is going to- make good his promise to the people and run the governors office on high plane, avoiding politics as much as possible. They have had too much bcssism in the Governors office, said Governor Hays recently, and I believe the people will appreciate a non-political governor for a while at least. Governor Hays is eminently correct. He will add dignity to the office of the chief executive if he eliminates politics from it.

Now that Senator James P. Clarke has accepted the invitation of Asso- ciate Justice w. F.

Judge Kirby is good campaigner and is fearless, and Senator Clarke has the reputation for being one of the most aggressive men on the stump in this state. He is styled as Tycoon Clarke at Washington and there ought to soon be some fur flying in the woods of Arkansas.

working for his appointment and he has the endorsement of a number of senators and congressman.
 The position is now held by Cap- tain J. N. Thompson, whose head quarters are at Louisville, Ky. Owing to Thompson's old age, it is not thought that he will be reappointed, although fight is being made by his friends to retain him.
 Captain Downs is peculiarly fitted for the place. There is no better river man nor none with more prac- tical experience than Captain Downs.
 The position, by precedent, right fully belongs to Arkansas. Captain Thompson lived in Arkansas when he was named under the Cleveland ad- ministration, but afterwards moved to Tennessee. He was appointed through Arkansas influence and after personal friends in this state and Little Rock had induced the late Senators James K. Jones and James H. Berry to insist on his appoint ment.
 Captain Downs is a sober, reliable, thoroughly competent and popular river man and would make an ad- mirable head for that special govern ment department.

More Reserves Are
 Asked By Democrats
Claims Are Made That Eight Regi- onal Banks Will Not Serve Needs
 of Entire. Country.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Owing to a feeling among Democratic senators that certain sections of the country may be neglected if only eight reg onal reserve banks, as now provided should the administration currency bill prevail, they are insisting ill the caucus that this number be increas- ed. When the caucus adjourned to- night it was generally believed that the number might be increased to not more than twelve, certainly to ten. The House bill provides for mot less than twelve".
 Southern senators par ticularly were insistant that their region De given one of these banks and the group of senators from the inter mountain states of the West were likewise clamoring for reserve bank Ten of these reserve banks probab- ly will be authorized.
 So much headway was made in the consideration of the pending blll to- day that instead of holding a night session, the caucus adjourned at 6 o'clock until tomorrow morning. Practically forty five pages of the measure were completed. All the so- called ''fundimentals" of the Owen bill reported by the Democrats, were agreed to. Public ownership and control or the reserve banks was voted down, although quite number of Democrats advocated this propO- sition of the Hitchcock sub. The argu- ment against this plan was that the

IS WIGGLING OUT.

1T. J. Collier, the unsuccessful anti
 Free Bridgeite and tax dodger, in a statement few days ago declared that he had not signed the protest petition, which was filed with the Board of Assessors of the Jefferson County Free Bridge District, in which, it is charged defamatory statements were made concerning members of the Bridge Commission. He also says that his father had not signed the petition nor had either of them au- tkorized their attorneys to sign it. Why, then, should Mir. Collier and his associates induce others to sign such petitions, when they would not do so themselves. He claims to have se- cured the opinion of big Little Rock lawyer, who told him that the state ment was privileged and was not li- belous, and for which information Collier says he paid $200.
 Even after securing this opinion, Collier admits he did not sign the petition get he urged other property owners to do so. It looks rather strange now, after the Free Bridge Issue has been for all time settled. that MT. Collier should come forward with q startling statement of this kind His attosneys signed the peti- ton fos him. he says, without author ity. More will come out as time pass es and Collier will continue to make himself ridiculous in the eyes of even those who have been misled by him in the Free Bridge fight.

Returning from ten days vaca-,
ton yesterday, States Attorney
Hoyne issued the following state
ment to the public:
To the People of Cook County,
On the Sunday afternoon when the
various owners, managers, editors
and detectives of the Chicago
Tribune met in the office of the Chi
cagO Tribune to discuss the shooting
of Alexander Bedford the night be-
fore, they decided apparently to
make Annenberg's case the Tribune's
case. Within the next two days, ac-
cOrding to a witness who overheard |
the conversation, r. r. Mccormick
in conference with Managing Bdi-
tor Edward 8. Beck, decided that
when the states attorney moved in
the Annenberg- matter, the Chicago
Tribune should begin to defame him
by a series of cartoons and news arti-
cles, charging him with protecting
gamblers, and to run sensational arti-
cles from day to day showing the
states attorney to be the cause of
the suffering of women and children
WIZ Wei ILL pON CbAAA .L4Ese5ACLL-
ed by reason of gambling losses by
those to whom they looked for sup
port. ... a
This lying and malicious campaign
having fallen fiat by reason of it's in
nate idiOcy and utter lack of basis
therefor, >-.--.-
Thereupon, "R. R." the wonder
child of journalism, brushed the dust
from the TribUne's chest of ancient
and malicious tricks and brought |
forth an attack upon the states at
torney through its news columns, its
briefiess and oficeless attorneys, and
refOTmers for revenue only, insin-
uating that the states attorney had
failed or refused to prosecute two
persons charged with offenses
against little girls or children, These
cases specifically mentioned were
