Warren @. Harding

President Harding has passed on.
For week the nation has been under
the shadow Of death. The first re-
port Of the death dazed the nation,
and then universal sorrow followed
and still continues.
The funeral train bearing his bady
has crossed the continent from ocean
to ocean, amid manifestations OF sor-
row unequalled In the annals OF men.
From foreign capitals came mes
sages Of sincere sympathy; from men
OF all parties came tributes to his
memory; while the common people
and the children thronged the
stations as his remains passed to
weep for one they loved and who
they realized had loved them-for he
was one Of them.
Now is no time to fix his place IN
history as a statesman; the wisdom
OF his policies may well wait Tor time
to vindicate or disprove them: but
this we may confidently assent as a
fixed opinion OF all meR that he was
great. kindly man, With a sincere,
purpose to serve all the people, and
lead them into paths Of peace. pros
perity and happiness
The world Will never call him
super man, but 1t will call nin all

General Pilsudski Is Both
Hated and Adored by Poles

fessor of engineering at the University
of Zurich, Switzerland, as president
of the Polish republic. On December
16, Elias Niewiadomski, another pro-
fessor, assassinated NarutowIcz in
broad daylight TO the slogan OF Down
with Pilsudski!" The murdered man
was n friend and distant cousin of the
former chief of state. Whether he
was also a tool in the hands Of his
cousin, who wanted to rule through
him, as claimed by the right, is more
than doubtful.
For a moment after the assassina-
ton Of Narutowicz there was grave
danger of riots and progroms. But
troops appeared at all critical points
as il by magic. A strong hand. evil
IDENTIFY, was directing the forces of
order. and that strong hand necessar-
lily must have belonged to either Pill
sudski or Sikorski. 1t came into evil
dence again during the skirmishing
between Poland and Lithuania in the
so-called neutral zone near wilma. At
that time Pilsudski was often noted
near the scene of action.
To give an unbiased idea OF the
character Of this extraordinary man is
not easy. His strength and honesty
are perhaps the only two attributes
oil which all writers agree. Although
given innumerable opportunities for
graft. exploited literally by some OF
his friends. the marshal himself is
now as poor as when he began.

NEW BILL EXPECTED
TO STRAlGHTEN OUT
TEXAS GASOLINE TAX
Refiners and Importers Will
Haze to Pay One Cent
Per Gallon.

Austin. Tex, April 2S.-Refiners
and importers of gasoline will be
required to pay the one-cent per gal
lon tax on gasoline under the terms
of q bill being prepared in the at
torncy generals department which is
expected to be introduced in the Legis-
lature next week.
The conclusion has been reached
that imposition IL the tax on the re-
fineries and the importers of gasoline
is the only solution of the question
as TO who is to pay this tax.
Under a recent ruling by the at
torney generals department ii was
held that every person, firm or cor
poration that deals in gasoline. from
the refiner 10 the retailer shall be
required to pay the tax.
II is evident that this would result
in one gallon of gasoline being taxed
several times which was not the in
tention of the Legislature in the
passage of the law.
The bill now being prepared will
solve the question, il is stated.
f. II. Pierson, chief of the tax
division of the comptroller's depart
ment is proceeding under the ruling
of the attorney generals department
and over 10000 blanks have been
sent TO refineries, wholesalers, iobbers
and retailers of gasoline upon which
they are to make q report and pay
one cent on each gallon of gasoline
sold during the month of April.
The law provides that those held
to he subject to the tax shall have
utnil May - in which to remit the
amount due the state.

Berlin. April 28.-Feople in all
parts of the old world who own shares
of stocks of any kind were startled
and envious recently when the Kan
erich Foundry in Berlin declared a
dividend of 1915 "a per cent "to be
paid in dollars" Investigation OF
the circumstances which permitted the
company to pay such a dividend re.
veals, however that the holders of
Kamerich stock are not SO lucky
after oil. All that the company paid
out was $4,000 in German government
gold bonds.
Macmillan Kempner, chairman of
the board of directors of the Kam-
erich Foundry explained today how
it was possible for his company to
declare this dividend.
Our profits in paper marks were
Quite high" he said, "because we
have been doing normal business
with several countries, including Italy
and Spain. The principal reason We
were successful last year was that
We were able to build new plants
with money paid by the federal gov
eminent for our Alsatian factory
which, of course, went into French
hands. The new plant was put In
operation several months ago dnd we
have been manufacturing pipes there.
The dividend was paid in government
dollar bonds because the government
asked what We could still do for its
gold loan which was such a failure a
few weeks ago. So we bought $1,000
worth of bonds which we distributed
among the stockholders"

HEAVY WOOL CROP
Del Rio Section Expects to Market
100000 Pounds.

Del Rio, Tex, April 2S.-Conser-
vative wool men estimate that this
year Del Rio will market 5,000OOO
pounds of wool. and 1000, 900 pounds
of mohair. and that the combined
value will be close to $4.O00,00O.
1t Is also estimated that the range
this year will accommodate 100 per
cent more sheep and goats than it has
at present. and for that reason there
will be very little selling. and cor
responding increase next year in the
output of wool and mohair. as most
of the lambs and kids will be kept on
the ranches.
