The Boise Chamber of Commerce, by resolution, has
accepted the proposition of President Bush of the Western
Pacific railroad, to raise a bonus of one million dollars
to secure the building of a branch from Winnemucca to
Boise. Two hundred and fifty thousand of this is to be in
cash and the remainder in right of way. If the branch is
built it will bring Boise several hundred miles nearer San
Francisco than at present. Boise possibly could raise the
money, but will it?

Vital Statistics
For Georgia.

Atlanta, February 23-Census
Director W. j. Harris has called
the attention of his fellow Geor-
gians to the fact that if South
Carolina passes a vital statistics
measure, which she is contemplate
Ing then Georgia will have the I'M
pleasant distinction of being the
only tate IN the whole union lack
ing legal provision for the keep
ing Of such records.
Mr.. Harris urges that vital
statistics measure be considered at
the coming session of the Georgia
legislature. All progress in sani-
tatlon, he points out, is directly
related TO the birth, health AND
mortality records. NO business
can De safely conducted without
accurate book keeping, and vital
statistics bear the same relation to
the business Of protecting health
that ledgers and cash books bear
to the banking business or other
commercial concern.
Other leading Georgians take
th&same view Of the situation and
it is predicted as a practical GER
talnty that some kind of vital
statistics bill will be passed this
summer.
Many states have had such
measures for more than a quarter
of a century.

A. B. { A. To Complete
Tampa Line, Is Report

Thomasville, March l. If the
Atlanta, Birmingham and Allan
tic railroad is sold April, as has
been ordered, will the purchasers
complete the Tampa Northern
branch from Thomasville to Tam
pa, is a question that many
Thomasville people would like to
have answered.
This line has been surveyed
and a portion of it built out of
Tampa but owing to financial
reasons it was never completed.
The necessary right of way was
secured here and all arrange
ments made for the entrance of
the line into the city md there
was much disappointment when
it failed to reach here.
With the opening Of the Pana-
ma canal the completion of this
line would mean great things in
a business way to the owners of
the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic and it would also mean
much to Thomasville and every
citizen would like to see it come
here.

EDUCATION INSTEAD
OF A JUNKET

Instead of giving the young
prize winners of the corn, can
ming, poultry and other agricul-
tural clubs of the country a trip,
to Washington. the Agricultural
Department recommends that a
years course be given in practi-
cal training at some Agricultural
College. In case the young
champions training would not
be sufficient to permit him to en-
ter the agricultural college of his
state a more elementary course.
in a school where agriculture is
taught, or a course in an agri-
cultural high school, is recon-
mended.
One of the first persons to
raise the question as to whether
the practical training or the more
spectacular trip was preferable
was a young man from Arkansas
who had won the corn club prize
for that state. Given his choice
of all the prizes offered by the
State of Arkansas, including the
trip to the National Capital, he
selected scholarship giving him
a years tuition in an agricultural
school,. This gave impetus to
the idea in Arkansas, and other
states, seeing the advantages
thus afforded to ambitious boys
and girls, have decided to include
a years tuition at some agricul-
tural school as the chief prize for
prize winners.

Predicted Snow Storm

Atlanta, February 2S-W hether
NATION Hermann, after proving
to the skeptical Atlanta public that
he actually could predict a snow
storm three days in advance of it's
arrival, and while a summer sun
was shining, has taken the public
into his confidence and is explain
ing how he tulns the trick that
is how he and Uncle Sam turn 1t.
Reading the stars and watching
the wild geese and suffering from
rheumatic aches or sudden twinges
in your corns have nothing to do
with the government bureaus
methods.
AS a matter of fact, explains
Mr.. VonHermann, the torecaster
tells of coming disturbances in a
businessllke way, very similar to
that IN which a man who has re-
ceived a bill showing a shipment
of GOODS would estimate the date
of its arrival.
elf man ordered pineapples
from the Hawaiian islands, he
would be able to estimate about
when they should arrive, barring
accident.
"Storms, like pineapples, as a
rule Go not originate in the United
States. They come, some of them,
from Japan, Siberia, Alaska, Can
ada and the gulf of Mexico. The
weather bureau gets cable, tele-
graph or wireless notice of the
foreighn storm. Station after
station, or vessel after vessel, re-
port the storms arrival, the way
it is moving, and the speed at
which it is moving, SO that the
general direction of rate and pro-
gress can be very dearly determin-
ed.
"But unexpected conditions may
delay the storms or divert them
from the straight track, Just as a
refrigerator car may be thrown off
it's schedule or derailed.
'The same system is used in
tracing the track Of frosts, and
flood forecasts are made in much
the same manner.

Postmaster General On
Top In p. @. Bill Fight
Attempts To Limit BurlesOn's Authority Meet With
Failure in Close Vote on Floor of The Senate

Washington, D. G. Feb. 81
All attempts to limit the authority
of the postmaster general to change
the weight, rates or zones in the
parcel post service were defeated
today in the senate during consid-
Grafton Of the post,ofice appropri-
alton bill. An amendment after it
passed the house proposed by the
senate postofice committee to pre-
vent the postmaster general from
making these charges were de-
feated by 33 to "a, Then Senator
Bankhead, chairman of the com
mittee, sought to forestall pro-
posed increase in the maximum
weight of packages to one hundred
pounds by an amendment provld-
ing that postal funds should not
be used to transport packages of
more than fifty pounds. This was
defeated by one vote, the roll call
standing % to 81. When Senator
Bankhead asked for elimination OF
fifty pounds for packages on star
routes Senator Clark, of Wyoming
who had fought for the original
committee amendment, declared
this would be an unjustifiable dis
elimination against rural patrons.
The amendment was voted down
81 to Is.
Senator Clark attacked pro-
vision of the bill granting $4,000
to the legal representative of
specified employees of the postoffice
service killed while on duty, and
succeeded in having stricken from
the list certain employees not en-.
gagged in the railway service. He
SAID if the bill as presented were
passed, the government would have
to insure the lives of employees in
every other department of the
government service. Final action
on the measure will be reached to-
morrow.

available witnesses States Atty
Hoyne has on crimes against the tax
laws made out case so strong that
the regular grand jury which heard
them will say to Judge Kersten that
the present grand jury should be CIV
en- powers as a special grand jury.
The question will again be put up
straight to the circuit judges of the
criminal court as to whether they will
give Hoyne the special grand jury he
wants. Hoyne argues that nothing
but special grand jury sitting about
six months can untagle the snarl of
trickery and crime in taxes by which
Chicago losses about $50, 100000 tax
money year.
Among organizations keeping tab
on the judges who will or will not
grant Hoyne the special jury are the
Woman's Party of Cook County, the
Chicago Teachers Federation, the
Illinois Tax Reform Assn and the
Federation of Men Teachers.
The suit against the Marshall Field |
estate for payment of $4,000 of |
taxes, lodged through action of tax
officials and the courts, may be push
ed at an early date. Maxwell Edgar,
the attorney who started the suit, has
held conferences lately with officers
of the Federation of Men Teachers
looking toward action on the case.
The November bulletin of the Fed |
Grafton of Men Teachers has this |
query: eff one wealthy man of the |
Rosenwald' type can evade the pay
men of 100000 of taxes in five |
years, what is the total sum evaded |
by all the wealthy taxdodgers of Chi |
cago in generation?"
A letter from Maxwell Edgar states
that the Illinois Tax Reform Assn, |
through complaints before the Board
of Review and civil suits during the
past five years has compelled pay
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-11-25


ment of $2,96O,OOO of taxes that for.
merly escaped payment. The Inter-
national Harvester Co. and the Mar
shall Field estate combined were
forced to pay over $2,000,000. This
has resulted, Edgar shows, in the
public schools getting $1,036,000
which would have slipped away if the
teachers and tax agitators had not
kicked up trouble at the Board of
Review and in the courts.
Enormous sums are lost because
corporations don't pay taxes on their
capital stock, as required by law, Ed
gar states. He writes:
'Such great and prosperous con-
Germs as the Crane Co., Butler Bros.
and the Western Electric Co., all of
which show very large profits in
their public statements, have never
yet paid the capital stock tax, nor has
the Board of Review shown the
slightest inclination to assess them.
This is one of the reasons taxes are
so high to persons who have no
friends on the Board of Review"
According to Edgar, the new meth
cd of Roy o. West and Fred w.
Block of assessing shares of stock at
one-tenth of the market value was
not begun until the last year. Before
that they were assessed at MOTH -
ING, instead of one-tenth. This is
Edgar's statement of the case:
"The Board of Review summoned
all parties interested on Aug. Z, 1913.
when a number of attorneys ap-,
peared in behalf of certain stock
holders. 1t was shown that Julius,
Rosenwald was the owner of record,
on April 1, 1913, of 147,701 shares
of the capital stock of Sears, Roe
buck & Co. of par value of $10O and
the fair cash value of $185 per share.
