New York city alone has outstand- ing $1, ,45O, ,000O0O of tax-exempt bonds. and there is a total of $8000, ,000, 900 of tax-exempt municipal bonds outstand- ing at the present time. Hundreds of million of this amount are invested in electric light plants, water works. mu- nicipal docks subways and other large income-producing properties.

 OCRATIC MEET
To Be Elected by State Central Com
 mittee at Meeting Next Tuesday


 The State Central Committee, at a meeting next Tuesday, will select four delegates at large, IA district dele gates and IA district alternate dele gates to the Democratic national con yention at San Francisco.
 It is not considered probable that there will be any effort made to in- struct the delegation from this State, inasrnuch as the Stase committee has no authority or power to pledge the delegates.
 There will be four delegates at large and two delegates from each congressional district. There also will be two alternate delegates from each district, but it is improbable that alternate delegates-at-larg will be elected.
 Ninety-fve reservations have been made on special train to- be run from here to the convention by the Missouri Pacific Railroad, it was an nounced by R. P. Allen, one of those in charge of getting up the train, Wednesday morning. The special train will break up at San Francisco, as some of the Arkansans are expect ed to want to return by one route and others by another.
 It is expected that at least 15O Ar kansas people will make the trip on the special tram, as the 95 reserva- tions do not include any reservations for the delegates or alternates. The train will leave here June 21. Oscar H. Helbig, general manager of the Prescott and Northwestern Railroad will be in charge. The train will have through dining and baggage cars. and will include six Pullmans arkansas Democrat.

He said that the joint stock land banks now pay an income upon the profit on their stock the same as these other in- stitutions.
 Mir. Huston also explained that eleemosynary Institutions which carry $400, 0,000 900 of farm mortgages pay no income tax
