DOUBLE TAX IS !.
RESULT OF BAD
LEGISLATION
18th Assembly Does Bungle.
some Piece of Attempt
ed Reform.

Bismarck, N. D., May 23.-A large
portion of the money and credits Of
retail and wholesale merchants, ele-
vators, mills, manufacturing con-
Germs, etc.. which are operated by
corporations organized under the laws
or this state, will bear q double tax
as the result of an attempt Of the late
lamented sixteenth legislative as
sembly to amend Chapter 2110 of the
Compiled Laws Of 1918. It was. the
intent Of the Legislature to amend
mis- law so that the corporate cess
would be subject to the general
erty rate of taxation. But in amend
ing the law in other particulars.
either willfully or a a result Of a.
blunder, the legislature changed the
term personal property to tang.
ible personal property" The law
worked something like this: II a cor
poration's actual going conce; value
was 100000 and its assessed real and
there was a residue of $4,000 Of COR
porate excess franchise value or
"watered stock" subject to the gener-
al property tar rate. The tax payer
was allowed to*deduct his money and
credits assessed under the money and
credits act but the injection OF the
word Tangible" into the amended
law allows him only to deduct cor
poral property-he may not deduct
intangible property, THAT is money
and credits {.
The result will be that all corpora
tons organized under the laws Of this
state will be compelled to pay the
hgeneraf@ tax~rate,sswifch last year was
more than fifty mills, upon alarTEee
portion, Of this money and credits as
sessed upon the fifty per cent basis.
They will also have to pay three mills
upon the actual value of the money
and credits. The corporation is fur
Their subject to an excise tax of fifty
cents upon each thousand dollars Of
issued stocks and bonds. !
This change in the law will work a
distinct hardship on all corporations
ofganized under the laws of the State
of North Dakota and will doubtless
result in any future corporations or
ganized to do business in this state
being organized under the laws of
another state. hey may hope to
avoid the tax in this way. But for
those already organized under the
laws Of the State of North Dakota,
their tax burden will be increased by
tens of thousands of dollars.

CHICAGO. Jan. 2O.-Sharp criticism |of government ownership of railroads was made here tonight at a meeting of the National Gamers association and allied associations, by United States Senator l.. M -Fernden of Maine, former president of the Ma tional Gamers association.
 Since the government took control of our railroads. freight rates have ad- yanced 40 per cent; passenger rates 50 per cent and the poorest service ever experienced, has been given to the people of this country" said Sen ator Ferndell.
 He said that when war ceased the senate passed a resolution to abandon housing projects. no longer needed and costing between three and four hundred thousand dollars a day. The resolution was sent to the house. he said
 The house deferred hearing until January s, when it was taken up. But the president is still abroad and the bill cannot become a law without his signature. Thus expenditure of at least SS00.O00 a day has been going on. since early in December

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE
 PH0SP HATE
Nothing Like Plain 6itro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to increase Strength, Visor
 and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatments which are contin- ually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy. develop ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their ex- cessive thinness.
 Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contain ed in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so we'll as the organic phos- phate known among druggists as bitro- phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by J. Nj. Ball in Bisbee and most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by sup plying the body cells with the neces- sary phosphoric food elements, bitro- phosphate quickly produces a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing
 This increase in weight also carries With 1t a general improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness. soon disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health.
 CAUTION: = Although bitro-phos- phate is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleeplessness and gen, eral weakness, it should not, owing to its remarkable flesh-growing prop critics, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh.

 NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Ban Johnson and John A Heydler presidents respectively, of the American and Ma tional baseball leagues. decided at a conference today, not to sign at pres ent a tentative agreement with the minor leagues.
 Heydler said that he and Johnson would not sign the agreement until they had time to go into the subject more fully.
 John H. Farrell, secretary of the Ma tional Association of Professional Baseball clubs, who had remained here to get the signatures of Heydler and Johnson. was greatly disappointed.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 20-An- nouncement that it had dropped it's in vestigation of charges of irregularity in the prosecution Of Thomas J. Noon ey and related cases, filed with the de- partment of labor by John B. Dens- more, director general of employment, was made to the county grand jury here today. The department of labor refused the request of the grand jury that Densmore appear before it. MT Densmore departed and refused to an- swer either the subpoena of the grand jury or the request of the foreman that he return to San Francisco for the purpose of assisting in investiga- tion, said the grand jury report
 Our investigations led us to believe that the report is at least inaccurate in many important details Conversa- apparently been distorted and garbled Facts have been misstated and circum- stances miscoRstrued-
 The grand jury of the city and county of San Francisco therefore begs to report that it can find no evi- dence tending to show either miscon- duct in officer or maIfeasance in of flee or the commission of any crime on the part of the district attorney or any. of his assistants
 .'The Densmore report remains an unconfirmed and unsubstantiated document,
 1t is to be regretted that any of ficial of the United States government would be permitted to come to San Francisco, or any other city, and give publicity to a report reflecting not alone on the officials, but upon the morality and integrity of the commun- ity and then deliberately fail to assist in substntiating the charges and re- fuse to support them.
 This grand jury has found itself in the peculiar position of being op- posed and hampered and blocked in its efforts by officials of the govern ment and more particularly by the very officials who male and gave pub licitE to the charges.t

RED CROSS TO SEND RELIEF TO
 WAR PRISONERS
lRy Revier Leased Mirel


 PARIS, Jan 20.-The American Red Cross will begin immediately the work of providing relief for Russian pris- oners in Germany, who are said to number 100000. Large sums of mon ey have been contributed for this pur- pose by Russian societies and indi- viduals in France and Scandinavian countries.
 Opt. W. B. Webster, of the American Red Cross, is in London supervising the loading of the steamer Nero with shoes, blankets and clothing. The yes sel will start for Copenhagen in a few days. Negotiations have been com pleted with Herbert c. Hoover, lirec- tor general of relief, who will supply food up to the limit of the money sub scribed for the relief of Russian pris- oners through Rotterdam and Copen- hagen
 This relief work possibly is the re- suit of a clause in the new armistice conditions and will be under the gen eral supervision of Brigadier General Harris of the American army, who is in Berlin in connection with the re- patriation of American prisoners
 The Russian military prisoners in GcIuldul lOldl 1sEOOsOUO W0ll6 tue civilians number 100000. Most of them are in large camps, there being zoO,- 900 at Danzig alone. There are 14,- 900 officers. Sanitary conditions among the Russians are said to be very bad because of the lack of soap. disinfectants and medicines.
 The Red Cross is sending hospital and disinfecting units and kitchens and canteens with the first relief ship.
 It is reported 100000 Russian pris- oners are in hospitals and that 50,O00 more are invalids, chiefly from con sumption, because of the lack of prop CT food. The Red Cross will supply fats and other foods to supplement the relief furnished the prisoners by Germany.
 Most of the prisoners have not yet received any clothing except paper un- derwear and wooden shoes and the Red Cross will try to supply at once warm clothing and nourishing foods Distribution of the food and clothing will be supervised carefully to insure that it reaches the prisoners.
