be Occa sion indeed to pat ourselves on
the back and incidently do consider
able advertising of that fact in eastern

But the statement that the per capita
merely a trick of bookkeeping. 1t is
the result of ruling that bonds drawn
in anticipation of taxes do not constl-
tute a debt. Under such system, it
could readily be shown that state had
no debt whatever when the true facts
might be that the people were stagger-
ing under taxation extended to take up
bonds that had been issued in anticlpa-
ton of taxes.
Icwa's per capita debt is far greater
than three cents. AS mat
ter of fact, on the bonds already issued
by the state for the purchase of the
big tract about the capitol, the per
capita debt is about forty cents. The
state has sold practically $9OO,OOO
worth of bonds They must be re-
deemed by the taxpayers of the state
and regardless of any legal quibbling,
they constitute debt upon the people.

Now there are those who will
doubtless come back and say that the
supreme court has decided that the
warrants issued by the state in antlcl-
patton of taxes, are not debt. Then
it will be up to the court of last resort
the people-to say what is debt.
The argument that these warrants
are not a debt is like that Of the man

it was possible to get it. The colony
will be located near Woodward on the

most and that is certainly most accept

Nothing is more appropriate than that

into Mr. Magee's ken, suggested winter

About the great black shape that

Silenced Mr. Magee followed the
lantern of Quimby over the snow to
the broad steps, and up to the great
front door. There Magee produced
from beneath his coat an impressive
key. Mr.. Quimby made as though to
assist but was waved aside.

told him, "some day Sunday news

He placed the key in the lock,

The coolest blast Of air Mr.. Magee
had even encountered swept out from
the dark interior. He shuddered, and
wrapped his coat closer. He seemed
to see the white trail from Dawson

the dwindling provisions, the fat

The two retired to the next room,

he awaited their return. Presently
they reappeared.

He continued to smile into Mrs.

Magee had the type Of smile that
moves men to part with ten until Sat

Mr.. Magee entered into no dispute
on this point. and for half an hour he
was the pleased recipient of advice,
philosophy, and food. When he had
assured Mrs. Quimby that he had
eaten enough to last him the entire
two months he intended spending at
the inn, Mr.. Quimby came in, attired
in huge before the war" ulster, and
carrying lighted lantern.

"Good.by," smiled Mrs. Quimby.

In the timely comment is the fol-

The opinion still prevails that at
whatever price the early deliveries
from Cuba may be placed, there viii
be a rising trend to values later. This
feeling is based upon the fact that
neither Great Britain nor France have
thus far made provision for supplies
beyond May 1st, and the United States
has made no provision whatever for
any future supplies. The three coun-
tries may, therefore, come into com
