THAT SPECIAL SESSION
Hon. Frank H. Reighard Explains Eff
feet of Legislation Enacted in Re-
duction of Taxes Tax Levies-
Tax Levies Compared.

have received many inquiries as to
what was done by the extraordinary
session of the legislature called by
Gov. Cox, July 20, and what effect
the legislation enacted then would
have in the reduction of taxes as
compared with other years, and
whether or not the public schools or
good road movement through the
state would be injured or improved
by the same. To answer a few of
these questions submitted, will use
the public press.
In the message which Gov. Cox
sent to the legislature upon its con-
vening, July 20, he calls attention
particularly to the increase in the
valuation of the total state tax dupli-
cate and to the surplus in the state
treasury, and asks that the state tax
levy be reduced. 1t must not be for
gotten that no matter, can, be con-
sidered at special session of the leg
islature but such as the governor calls
attention to in his message.
TAX LEvIES.
The state levy for the year 1918
was .961 mills and the valuation OF
the total state tax duplicate for the
same year was $6,719, ,068, $4,000. The
state levy for 1914 was the same as
in 1913 while the valuation of the tax
duplicate for 1914 would be increas-
ed about one billion dollars accord
ing to the governors estimate. He
recommended that the state levy be
cut from 1851 mills to .450 mills
which was done.
The state tax levy is made up OF
the following items:
Sinking Fund .0335 mills
Common School ......... $3.50 mills
University .U925 mills
Highway ............... $1,000 mills
Iotai ..Sol Hills
The governor did not propose that
all the items making up the levy be
reduced but just certain ones. The
reduction made by the governor was
in the Sinking Fund, Common Scnoo
and Highway. With his changes tht
state levy as enacted into law is as
follows:
Sinking Fund ..s........ .0025 mills
Common School ..0550 mill.
University .0925 mills
HIGHWAY 5000 mill.
Total ..45O mill.
This shows that the state levy fol
1911 was reduced mere than orle-half

KATE HEARING

Washington, Oct 1T.-Rehearing Of
the application by the railroads for a
5 per cent horizontal increase IN
freight rates will begin on Monday
before the interstate commerce com
mission and the railroad presidents
and shippers are lined UP for a bitter
battle.
While it is impossible to forecast
what action will be taken by the com
mission the railroad heads are hope
ful of success, In view of the stand
taken by President Wilson when the
true statement Of facts was pre-
sented to him by the delegation rep
resenting the carriers.
The order for the rehearing pro
yides that the railroad officials will
be limited to the presentation of facts
disclosed and occurrences originating
subsequently to the date upon which
the records previously made were
closed.
1t is the contention Of the railroads
that revenue conditions have become
SO acute as a result of the European
war that additionaI revenue from
freight traffic is imperative. althougn
the feeling Of the members of the in
terstate commerce commission is said
to be that the demand of the rail
roads for a general increase in freight
rates is not justified, there is a strong
sentiment in Washington in favor Of
the railroads.
Financial authorities, not only in
America but in Europe, have declared
for many months, lono before the war
broke in Europe, that the revival Of
business enterprise in America de-
pended on the granting Of the rail
roads demands.
In the hearings which will begin
next Monday, the shippers will have
equal opportunity to present their pro
tests, and it is expected that they will
present large volume of evidence
against the propriety and justice Of
increasing freight rates at the present
time.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured


by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that Is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition Of the mucus lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to It's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; ni1e
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
fIammed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

SUFFRAGEI7ES A
PATRIOTIC
BUNCH
THEY GIVE UP CAMPAIGN IN
ENGLAND TO HELP DUR
ING THE WAR

London, Sept. 25 Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-The wom-
en- suffragists are doing fine work in
relieving distress caused by the war.
The votes for women propaganda
has been abandoned completely for
the present and many of the organi-
cations are placing all their resources
at the service of needy women. In
London alone there are some $4,000
women who were earning their own
living before the war but who have
since become destitute, many facing
starvation.
The active service league of the
National Union of Women's Suffrage
societies, which includes in its ranks
over 600 societies which have been
working for suffrage by constitutional
means, has an organized relief bureau
in its offices in shop on Parliament
street, and the branch offices through
out the country are also filled with
suffragists working for their country.
The workers distinguish themselves
by wearing uniform consisting of a
dark green coat and skirt, green felt
hats, with badges and ties of red and
green-the unions colors
The assistance of German women
and girls stranded in London is in
cluded in the relief program,
The union has many offers of hos
pitality for stranded people, and many
private school mistresses have offered
free education for daughters of of
ficers killed in action. Several work
rooms have been ftarted where out Of
work women ere paid 10 shillings a
week Of 40 hours-the trade union
rate-for making garments which are
given to destitute people.

One woman offered hospitality to
a Belgian for zone month certain, =
explaining that her small income had
dropped one-third and she did not
know whether at the end of one
month it would drop altogether or not.
She was anxious while she could af-
ford it to have so great a privilege as
that of giving shelter to Belgian

Titled Lady's Aid
Lady Beatrix Barclay, the wife Of
Sir George Barclay, British minister
at Bucharest, is one of the principal
workers in the ambulance department
of the order of St John of Jerusalem,
which is the senior Red Cross organ
ization of England. Lady Barclay is
an American, the daughter of the late
Henry G. Chapman of New York, and
great great granddaughter of John
Jay, the first American minister to
England.
Five thousand men belonging to the
st. John ambulance brigade have been
modified and are serving with the
British army and navy as hospital or
derlies, and several thousand more
have volunteered for the work. The
society has sent out 1888 highly train
ed nurses to tend the wounded on
the field and many more are in wait
ing. Much of the work of the amDu-
lance bearers, and even the nurses, Is
performed under fire
The Duchess of Bedford and the
Earl of Plymouth are two of the most
active workers in the organization.
It's activities are not limited to Brit
ish soldiers and sailors, but its work
ers are instructed to tend the wound
ed of all nationalities without discrim-
ination.
Think Uncle Sam Generous
Major D. w. Ketcham, one of the
American army officers sent over 10
London to administer the fund appro-
priated by congress as a loan to
stranded tourists, relates this expert
ence, illustrating the faith of certain
class Of Americans in the generosity
d Uncle Sam:
One day a young woman called at
the majors office and said that she
wanted the $500 due her.
Thinking that she was one Of those
for whom money had been deposited
by friends with the state department,
the officer asked for proof. He got
it. The tourist produced a letter writ
ten to her by her father. In this let
ter the father said that congress had
appropriated $3OO,OO0 for the Amerl-
cans in England, and dividing it by
the number estimated to be there he
thought her pro rata should be $500,
advising her to insist upon her rights.
The applicant admitted having suf-
ficient funds, but safu she considered
the money form Of compensation for
the nervous strain of being caught in
Europe in war time. She left Major
Ketcham's office with the air of one
who had been deprived OF her dues.
Kitchener Wont Talk
At least two American newspaper
men have tried to make the Sphinx
talk. They have tried to interview
Lord Kitchener. 1t is a task no Brit
ish reporter would set for himself.
One American reporter received a po-
lite note from a secretary saying Lord
Kitchener was too busy. With that
he can prove that he tried the impos-
sible.
The one cabinet minister who is
easy to interview is the First Lord of
the Admiralty Winston Churchill. In
deed when on September rs the press
bureau announced that it would have
a statement at 7 o'clock in the even
ing the reporters were ready as usual.
But when it turned out to be an in
terview that Mr. Churchill had given
to a representative OF a Rome journal,
their faces fell, as novelists say Only
few of the papers seemed interested
in it.
