ABoLlsHlNc PERSONAL TAXES.

Chicago is said to have definitely
abandoned trying to collect personal
taxes amounting to less than $25 a
year. It has found that the expense
of collecting such taxes is more than
the receipts. Many other cities have
had the same experience, although
most of them still keep UP the. pre-
tense of taxing all personal property,
accepting such money as comes easily
and ignoring the rest. New York
has drifted into the practice of as
sessing the personal property of citi
zens known to be wealthy, and ignor-
ing the rest-which means that the
vast majority of citizens in New

NO TIME TO FOOL.

It is reported from Texas that 116
of the state militiamen. recently cali
ed into the field for duty upon the
Mexican border, have fatty refused
to take the oath of enlistment, thus
putting vexing question UP to the
war department.. TO courtmarial
these men, or boys mostly, would
bring down upon the head of the war
department the wrath of their par
ents and friends, many Of whom are
loyal Democrats 5 Of large influence.
To not punish their dereliction would
be to establish precedent which
would render the whole national
guard system innocuous.
But politics aside and looking at
the proposition from a purely mill
tary standpoint, which,, by the way,
is the only standpoint the grave ex-
igencies of the situation will admit,
stern necessity demands that a salu-
tary example be made of these sol
diers, for soldiers they became when
they enlisted in the National Guard
The Dick bill is quite clear upon the
point and leaves no question but that
they are subject to courtmartial and
punishment. That punishment need
not necessarily be severe, but should
be sufficient to deter the young. men
of America from enlisting in the Ma
tional Guard as "peace soldiers only.
1t is no time for fooling, that's
sure.

JAMES J. HILL.

James J. Hill, the greatest human
force in colonizing and developing
the Northwest, is dead. He saw a
future empire in the praries when
others beheld only desert. His gen
JUS for transportation and for the
promotion of agriculture fastened
North Dakotas development. No
Subsidy enriched him. Every mile OF
the Great Northern that now grid
irons the state was built without aid.
His only guaranty was splendid
copfidenggln the boundless resources
of .this fate i.n ID the entire North ''''
west. "a s ss~7 ,.@
His first trip through the Red River
valley il ts70 was tile turning point
in u career that was to make Mr..
Hill the greatest of American railroad
builders. While he was intimately
connected with the development or
this state. the Empire Builder has
been a national figure for years. The
systems of roads which he dominated
linked the Pacific with the Atlantic.
His genius opened up new avenues OF
trade between the Occident and ORR
ent. The termination of his career,
crowded as it was with commercial
triumphs, found him in. the harness,
planning fresh conquests in the field
of banking.
James ]. Hill retired only in Pick
wickian sense. He was at his office
daily when in st. Paul. Although he
delegated much to others, until the
day of his death he guided the poll
cies of the Great Northern and it's
allied interests.
North Dakota feels deeply her loss
today. This state was the scene OF
Mr.. Hills early success. 1t gave
him a start" as it were. He believ-
ed in it's future and that confidence
reaped rich reward.
Hundreds can attest to his deep in
terest in this state. For years when
actively connected with the operation
of the railroad, he spent much of his
time in North Dakota and formed
close friendships that lasted until his
death.
He was one of the first railroad
men to realize the necessity of edu-
eating the farmers served by his sys-
tenn in the most improved methods Of
agriculture. Mr.. Hill spent millions
in research and demonstration work
to improve the quality of livestock
and increase the yields of the various
crops.
The carping critic may say that his
motives were selfish and that more
tonnage was the direct objective. Ad-
hitting that this might be true, the
fact remains that in helping himself
he helped others. He put into effect
that big idea later adopted by other
railroad systems, that success lies in
strengthening the reciprocal relation
shin, between the carrier and the ship
per. Publicity, demonstration farms,
land departments and many other
agencies were employed by him to
impress upon the public the kind of
service his road desired to give.
North Dakota has lost a good friend
and advocate in James j. Hill. His
critics in this state have been many
and bitter, but today their attacks
arc feegotten as the great achieve

DOCTOR BY THE YEAR.

That the physician of the future
will work under contract system
was predicted by a speaker at the
recent convention of the Ohio State
Medical association. He explained
what he thought was an ideal sys-
tenn. Each individual would pay a
yearly tax for sickness insurance
and the doctors would be remunerat-
ed by the state A stage preceding
this will probably be the hiring OF
physicians by individuals and fami-
lies on yearly contracts. The physi-
clan will be. paid so much month
or year to keep the patient well. No
diminution will be allowed during
health, no increase during sickness.
It's not very unlike the Chinese
system, by which the physician is
paid during the health Of the patient,
but his fees are stopped upon the
approach of illness.
This would put stop to the abuses
of the fee system. The doctor would
not starve if his people were well, nor
would he keep on coming unneces-
sarily, nor would mercenary opera.
tons be advised.
This plan is growing in favor
among medical men. DR.. Otto v.
Huffman advised it before a conven-
ton in Chicago this winter. and a bill
for compulsory health insurance is
to be introduced into the Ohib legis-
lature next winter. 9s9k

S. X. Elliott. aged 49, a farmer liV-

field Saturday afternoon.

end came to him. Mr Elliott went 70

soon became uneasy over his absence
and went out to search for him, find

rently had fallen and expired without
a struggle. Whether he was overcome
by heat or was seized by heart trouble
is not known.
The deceased leaves a widow and
two sons. He had lived in this coun-
try about u years. having previously
resided ia Texas. Mr Elliott was q
Confederate veteran and enjoyed the
complete confidence and respect Of his
nesghbors.
