TAX OBJECTION UP
TO STATEOFFICER

An appeal has been made to the
state comptroller for ruling ON the
legality Of taxing the Pullman Com
pany for property within the city of
Pensacola. The company answers
their tax notices from the city thai
they no longer exist as a company
after being taken over by the govern
ment and that the taxes should be col
lected by the government. City au-
thorities are loath to accept this view
since the railroads have paid taxes
without representations OF any kind
since being taken over by the govern
ment. The ruling from the state au-
thority is expected to set the matter
straight.

The Ambitious Aim.

The editorial task is ambitious, extending 10 a
desire to present to readers not merely the of
new books but the material of new books, and to
introduce to them not only new and good writing
but new and able writer's Hence such features as
the verses and letters Of CHARLES DIVINE, the es-
says of GEORGE GORDON and the letters, versimiIi-
tudinous, humorous and touching, of small boy
to his uncle, written by EDWARD N. TEA1L.
The task of the editor does not stop with new
writer's. lie must strive to get the right person to
deal with the right things He accounts himself
fortunate, therefore, when SOPHIE KERR discusses
the costuming of heroines by the men who write
our novels; when SAMUEL MERwN talks about
book by CLAYTON HAMILTON on the writing Of
fiction; when ROBERT CoRTEs HOLIDAY considers
the work of BOOTH HARRINGTON as exhibited in
collected edition Of twelve volumes.
These are pleasant and exciting tasks; if they
contribute to Tighten the readers task or even 10
make It no task at all It i work well done. -,
