SUBSTANTIAL
 QUALITY

QUALIFY Houses and Clothes have little ill common but ''Solid Brick and a "brick veneer' look pret- ty much the same from the outside. But a few years later the difference will be easily seen. High quality clothes, such as we sell, and the more or less flimsy grade, may also look much the same through the windows,- but in a very short per iod of service-and the difference will be all too apparent.
 Doesn't good, honest qual- itv, kept down to the min- mum price, appeal to you?

Iansing, Feb. 24.-i'riends of State
Insurance Commissioner John T. Win
ship, who by virtue OF his office is also
state fire marshal, are today smiling
more or less at the expense of the COM
missioner.
The state fire marshal has issued
numerous proclamations urging clean
up days, and has called specific atten-
tlon to the fact that rubbish causes
many bad fires.
Consequently officials in the state
house were greatly surprised and
many were amused when r. II. Stan
ley, an engineer from Philadelphia
inspection bureau who visited every
nook and corner in the capitol build
ing for the purpose of pointing out
fire hazards, called the attention of
the state board of auditors to condi-
tions i'm washroom adjoining Com
missioner Winship's office, CLAIMING
that they need remedying.
The inspector also reported that
there is danger of a serious fire in
the state library unless the wooden
shelves are removed and steel shelves
installed. He also advocated fire
drill for the capitol watchmen.

F'xpressn again the attitude of the
mining companies that the Western
Federation Of Miners must be elimin
ated from the dispute and that the op-
orators never viii recognize the FED
Grafton, Attorney Rees at this morn
ing's session of the strike" investi-
CATION replied TO Attorney Hilton for
the Federation. Hilton had told the in
vestigation committee that if the men
were permitted TO return to work re-
fardless Of their afiliation with the
Federation they would Immediately be
willing to end the strike
In a long dissertation, in which he
set forth the attitude of the Fedora
tion, Hilton concluded with the state
ment; "This offer is made on condi-
tions that | believe to be eminenuy
fair and honorable. We are willing TO
shake hands to end this controversy
here and now
Admitting that the crux is the West
ern Federation of Miners and that
their so-called grievances have long
been passed into discard, Hilton asked
that the men be permitted to return TO
work without question as to their
membership in the Federation. He
said. Il am certain and | feel it Is
the attitude OF the men to get back &c
work We are not disposed to continue
the differences. | am warranted IN
making a fair and honorable offer on
our part"
Chairman Taylor responded-"I am
very glad to hear YOU"
Hilton replied: Il speak this with
the honest purpose of going more than
half way. The offer that the company
posted on Dec. 1st satisfied the msn
and the subjects it concerned are no
longer a matter of difference. The
schedule of wages in force Dec. / Is
satisfactory. The question of hours
has been settled it is no longer Il
-ricvance and both subjects are out of
the way, They are satisfactory to the
men II the eight hour day and scale of
wages continue. There ought To be no
discrimination against the miners be-
ing reinstated by reason Of previous
afiliation with any organization or So
ciety.
Congressman Casey interposed with
the question:
What are the real grievances
The reason l ask is that l want a
satisfactory statement as 10 he real
differences. Hilton replied that the
crux is insistance on the part of the
operators that the men should not be
members of the Western Federation
All that we ask is for them to return
without discrimination. We do not
ask the operators to deal with the
Western Federation Of Miners. Con-
gresham Switzer asked:
DO you want the committee TO
make a report that the alleged man
killing machines are satisfactory, thlt
the mines are not unhealthful and that
mans life underground is limited to
six or seven years? Are those things
to he reegated to the rear?'
Hilton replied. Anything that seems
wise to the committee"

TO
PAY S5,244,O25


Lansing, Mich, Feb. 2i.-Public
service corporations assessed on an
ad valorem basis viii pay $5,244,O25.S7
in state taxes this year and this money,
under the provision of the constitution,
will be turned into the primary school
fund. The state tax commission has
completed the final assessment ana
the figures show that the various COM
panies must pay $274,SS3.99 more in
state taxes than they paid one year
ago
Since the tentative assessment was
announced January Is, the state tax
commission has been sitting as a board
! of review and the companies have had
the ria ht of appeal from the tentative
figures. Some Of the companies failed
TO send representatives to Lansing, be-
ing apparently satisfied with the initial
work of the commission. However,
practically all of the railroad COM
panies appealed from the tentative as
sessment and i'm some cases they sue
cccdcd in inducing the tax commission
to pare off few thousand dollars from
the assessment.
Total Valuation $214, ,356, 500.
This year the companies will pay
taxes at the rate of $21.76 per $1,000
assessed value. The total valuation Of
all railroad property in the state is
placed at $214,356,5O0 The tentative
assessed valuation made last month
placed a valuation of $21S02l, 800 on
the property, but apparently the power
ty pleas of the corporation lawyers
have some effect as the final assess
ment was reduced 1000 from the
first figures
The Pullman company's tentative as
sessment was $650,00O, but the repre-
sentativcs of the company succeeded in
convincing the commission that it was
not worth more than $625.000 and a
reduction Of $4,000 was made. The ex-
press companies succeeded in securing
reduction Of $109.uJ) over the tcnta-
tive assessment. the ear loaning COM
panies were reduced $314,700, while the
telephone and telegraph companies
succeeded In having the commission
cut off Sill, 500. AS compared To tho
tentative figures the assessed valua-
ton of all the property was reduced
$3,927, 800.
