'The Bell Company doesn't want
the automatic only for the purpose of
junking it. And this in view of the
fact that the automatic is a probable
success.
"The Chicago Telephone Company
has been cheating the city for years.
For instance, why is it that Marshall
Field and other big stores in addition
to the newspapers are allowed to get
their service so cheaply? I'll tell
you, it is because we pay the differ
ence.
"Mr. Stroud is very clear in his ex-
PLANTATION that penny service is pos
-s1ble. We ought to adopt that as our
slogan in this fight.
Nov is the time to fight this pro-
posed steal of the automatic and this
rape of the peoples rights. The
merger is a violation of the Sherman
antitrust law and should be pre-
vented.
TITS getting so that the telephone
costs so much we can't afford to use
it. The service should be made so
cheap that we could all call our
butcher, or our baker or call any
thing that we need.
"The Illinois Tunnel COMPANY.
owners of the automatic, have been
gradually creeping on with their tun-
mel so that there is now go miles of
it underneath the ground. A 6O-mile
rathole! And the rathole that started
quite innocently in the backyard of
a saloon has now come out on the
lake front! And we can stop this
crime by revealing it to the people of
Chicago, for rats cannot stand light.
1T will be the everlasting disgrace
of Chicago if our aldermen become
the magnates' partners in crime"

Users Association and

DR.. Clarence B. Strouse made a
vigorous protest against what he
called the gigantic robbery of the
tunnel and the telephone service.
We're simply up against a ques-
ton of politics." he said. "And it's
the political side of it we've got to
fight. People haven't understood
how important this deal is. We've
fought the beef trust, the Standard
Oil Company and other monopolies
simply because the fight against
them seemed more vital to us. But
the telephone is necessary to So
ciety and no body of individuals have
right to control it.
"The American Telegraph & Tele-
phone trust practically controls the
situation in Chicago and every one
here tonight knows how bad the ser
vice is.
81 doubt that the establishment of
the automatic was really sincere. l
don't believe those behind it started
it for the purpose of conducting a
rival company to the Bell. 1 believe
If you looked far enough into 1t you'd
find the same hands that control the
Bell trust on the lever of the auto
matte. 1t was the subway they are
after and they don't care how they
get it.
"They first were granted fran
chise by their promise to Immediate
ly install 1000 telephones. Then they
started to dig their tunnel, in the
back yard of saloon on Monroe
street, Mr. Stroud says. Then when
they had enlarged their tunnel so that
it was big enough to carry freight
they asked for another franchise
They wanted to enlarge their system,
they pretended. And they got the
new franchise on the agreement that
they were to install 1000 telephones.
And they never have. It isn't the
telephone they want, it's the tunnel

One of the most attractive sub urban homes in the valley is that om J. L. Irwin, the wen-Enown Phoenix real estate man, located on South Central avenue about one mile and , half south of the bridge. Not only is the Irwin home most commodious one as indicated in the illustration, but is strictly modern, possessing many of the convcniences that arc usually found only in city homes. Among many desirable features is the complete acetylene lighting sys- tenn which Mr. Irwin says is q com plete success. lighting a total of thirty fixtures, as well as furnishing gas for a hot-plate in the kitchen.

The close observer of the progress or the development of Phoenix can not but be impressed by the number Cr large buildings now in the course CT erection in various parts of the city.

CURES PIMPLES EASILY.
Simple Remedy That Clears Skin
Quickly of All EruptiOns.

For several weeks past Peil, the
Druggist, has done big business in
selling Hokara, the skin healer that
has won so many friends in Homes
dale.
1t has been found to heal not only
all minor skin troubles, such as PIN
pies, blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly
scalp, complexion blemishes, itching
feet, piles, etc., but also the worst
sores, ulcers, or even chronic
eczema and salt rheum. There has
yet to be found any form of wound
or disease affecting the skin or mu-
cous membrane that Hokara does not
help, and it's action is so quick that
those who try it are simply delight
ed with it right from the start.
In spite of its unusual curative
powers, the price is trifiing. To con-
vince every one of its merits, Mr.
Peil will sell liberal sized jar foI
25c. And remember that if you dc
not think it does what it claims, you
get your money back. You certain
ly can afford to try it on this plan.

The Ohio Legislature has recent

There is one smooth-talking swim
dler who should give Sidney, N. Y,
a wide berth in the future. He
called at numerous houses in that
village and after asking if they had
a carpet sweeper, requested permis-
sion to examine it. Many Of the Ia
dies granted the request, and of
course upon examination stated that
there was something wrong with the
machine and asked permission to fix
it as the manufacturers desired to
keep them in repair and good work
ing order so that they might compete
with the vacuum cleaners. Where
the permission was given to make the
so-called necessary repairs, that is
the last the housewife has seen Of the
machine or the smooth talker. Just
now there are a number of Sidney
ladies who have resigned the use of
the broom to clean up their carpets.

INCOME TAX WILL ADD
BURDEN TO RAILWAYS.
Companies Declare $6,5OO,OOO Levy
VIII Be in Nature of Penalty
Fear For Their Credit.

companies Declare S0,OOO,OOO Levy
Will Be in Nature of Penalty
Fear For Their Credit.
The following article is taken
from the New York Sun of Tuesday,
May 27, and shows how the new in
come tax law will affect the railways
of the country by adding huge
burden.
The proposed income tax law will
impose an additional burden of
S6,500,000 a year on the railroads
of the country.
OF this amount, between $3,000,-
900 and $3,500,000 a year will have
to be paid by the railroads on bonds
issued by them with the understand
ing that the interest is to be paid
free of any tax collected at the
source.
Another $3,0OO,OOO will be drawn
from the railroads on account of
double taxation features in the bill,
which do not appear in the present
corporation tax law.
These facts were disclosed this
week in a brief by Walker D. Hines
on behalf of twenty-five of the big
railroads of the country with the
subcommittee of the Senate Finance
Committee, which is considering the
income tax bill.
The brief warns Congress that the
tendency of pronounced and con-
tinuing increases in taxes upon the
railroads is a matter of grave con-
cern to the people of the United
States. 1t shows that the taxes per
mile of line on the railways of the
United States have increased since
1900 by IA per cent. and that the
ratio of taxes to net operating rev.
enues has jumped in the same period
from $40 to 1886 per cent.
Effect on Railroad Credit.
" The cumulative effect of the in
come tax imposed on the railroad
companies" says the brief, "even-
tually will make itself felt in the
matter of railroad credit and then
will have its effect on impairing the
development and improvement of
railroad service"
One of the features of the pending
bill to which the railroads object
particularly is that which imposes a
tax upon dividends received by hold
ing companies from other corpora,
tions notwithstanding that the tax
already has been paid once by the
subsidiary corporations.
The railroads contend that this is
double taxation and imposes a bur.
den on them which does not appear
under the present corporation ta2
law and which does not fall on in.
dividuals under the terms of the
pending bill.
Members of Congress acknowl
edged frankly that the purpose Of
this additional burden on corpora
tions is to discourage the formation
and continuance of holding com
panies. The railroads contend tha
the tax will not accomplish this end
They point out that not only the
exigencies of financing the construc
tion of a new road but also the law
in many of the States compel the OF
ganization of separate corporation
They contend that a railroad com
pany in holding the stocks of othe
corporations is obliged to adopt thi
course to unity and extend it's sys
tenn in the public interest.

kOI6tuOg way 49,
The people of this place have no
ticed a great improvement in The
Citizen. 1t is surely the paper OF the
hour.
Butcher Clemo gave the residents
of Waymart a free circus last Friday
afternoon which proved very interest
ing before the last act. Mr.. Clemo
had been out in the country and
purchased a very vicious bull which
acted the part of wild buffalo in the
streets of Waymart. Mr.. Mills, who
is a resident of the latter place, has
in his possession a large, vicious
bull dog, who on getting his optics
on the butcher and buffalo, started
in to give the residents along Main
street a circus free of charge. Mr..
Mills entreaties with the dog were
all in vain as he made rush at the
bull who in turn stood his ground
while the butcher gave up possession
of the bull and climbed over nearby
fence betting at the same time that
the bull would make mince meat OF
the dog in a short time, while at the
same time Mr.. Mills across the
street was betting his last dollar on
the verocity of his dog to win out.
For the first twenty minutes the bull
seemed to have the advantage of the
fight, but in the next ten minutes the
bull had lost his wind while the dog
seemed fresh as ever which soon end
ed the fight in favor of the dog as he
soon got the bull dog grip on the
bulls nose and floored him and held
his hold until the bull was shackled
and time was called. The bull was
taken to the pen where his fighting
was ended.
Martin Novak was quite seriously
injured one day last week. He had
started from the barn to the field
with a load of manure and in some
manner he lost his balance and fell
off headfirst in front of the forward
wheel which passed over his head.
He was picked up unconscious with
blood running from his mouth and
nose. At this writing he is slowly
improving.
