THAT STAMP TAX"

Western Spirit: "The Republi-
cans were in power in 1870 and
1871, when the Franco-PruSsian
war was on, and they didn't pass
an extra revenue tax like we have
now" remarked a prominent local
Republican politician in the court
ROOM a few days ago. No, they
didn't pass such a revenue tax
law because they had one still
running" replied a Democrat.
~The stamp tax you're talking
about wasn't taken off until Oc-
