Jordan IN TRIAL FOR WIFE AtURDER Medical Examiner! Are Said to Have Found Evidence That Mrs. Jordan Wai First Beaten with a Blunt Intrument. Boston, Sept. 5. That Insanity will be the defense of Chester S. Jordan when he is tried for the murder of his wife, llonorah Jordan, Is indicated by the movement in his la-half. His brother-in-law, Jesse L. Livcrmore, the cotton market operator in New York, has en gaged Attorney William S. Srharton, and th4? latter has etated that he already haa evidence of Jordan's mental derange ment several weeks before the murder. The prisoner's confession was remark ably clear in the main, although there was ft slip or two. Evidence throwing new light on the probable manner in which the woman was killed haa been gained, it is said, by the medical examiners for Suffolk and Middlesex counties, who performed an autopsy on the dismembered boely. Jordan, in his confession to the police, said that his wife was killed by being knocked down stairs at their home in Somerville, and that he then cut up her bexly and placed it in the trunk in which it was found Thursday by the police on Hancock street. While neither Med ical Examiner U. B. McGrath of Boston nor Medical Examiner T. IL Durrel of Somerville will make public their find ings at present, it was learned that the examination indicated that Mrs. Jordan was struck with a blunt instrument, possibly ft flatiron, on the head, causing fracture of the skull sufficient to cause death. Then, it is alleged, she was stran gled. Jordani story of aphasia following the blow which knocked Mrs. Jordan down stairs is also a point upon which the police have, laid particular stress in their Instructions to the medical exam iner during the latter's examination of Jordan himseitV a it wa-fppowfl that I might be ft victim of drugs. This latter idea he denies. A BUSY SESSION BY JUDGE HARVEY There Were Four Cases Two Breach of the ePace and Two Intoxica tionUp Before Him To-day.

FURIOUS RIDE BACKWARDS Aay Result In Death of Prof. A. N. Henshaw ACCIDENT IN BURLINGTON With His Wife and Son He Wai Ascend ing Howard Street When He Lost Control of Hii Auto mobile. Burlington, September 5. When his automobile, over which he had lost con trol, backed down hill and dashed against ft hydrant, Prof. Alon.o N. Hen shaw of the Plattsburg normal school waa badly injured yesterday afternoon and now lies in a critical condition at the Van Ness House, where he was taken shortly alter the accident. Mrs. Hen shaw and their twelve-years-old son, who were riding with him, were not injured, save for some scratches. The party were riding up Howard street between South Willard and South I'nion streets in their Stanley runabout. When they had nearly reached Soutii Willard atreet the machine became in some way uncontrollable. It started backward and Prof. Henshaw was unable to prevent it from gathering increased speed as it went its backward course. By the time. South I'nion street was reached ft tremendous momentum had been gathered and the machine dashed against a hydrant at the corner of SenTth I'nion and Howard street. Prof. Henshaw was thrown violently under the machine and was extricated withi some difficulty and taken to the home of F. L. Lane, nearby. It waa at once apparent that he had sustained serious injuries to his head. Dr. G. Al. Sabin was called and Prof. Henshaw was removed to the Van Ne House.

The machine was splintered and smash ed from contact with the hydrant aud is considered practically fi total loss. A THEORY EXPLODED., DeclaXe Editor -Halvosa Who n mo Licked For Congress. The result of the congressional elec tion in the first district where Con gressmnn David J. Foster of Burling ton was re-elected by a tremendous niajeirity calls forth the following com ment from Editor Phillip J. Halvosa of the Vermont Union Signal who was a, candidate for the office: "An indication of the support which a labor candidate may reply upon in this district, the vote received by Editor Halvosa makes an interesting study. The total cot of his ewmpaign being only $1.95 all told, $1.75 for printing his nomination papers and 20c for pos tage stamps, he feels that the know ledge gaine-d was well worth the out lay. And, what is more, be not only thanks those who supported him at tne polls, he also thanks those who did not, Ins candidacy being a mere experiment to test the "labor should run its own men" theory advanced by the radicals. An analysis of the congressional vote cast in Rutland, Fair Haven, Poultney, Pawlet and Burlington (the well or ganized centers), proves the truth of Editor Halvosa s former contention that, while the number of strictly inde pendent voter istjttpparently increasing each year, the "labor should run its own candidates" theory is so absurdly impracticable that it is not deserving of serious consideration as a political palliative. It was $1.5 well spent. An ounce of actual results outweighs a ton of theorizing." TO EXHIBIT BARRE BIRDS.

ASSERTS PLANTS HAVE MEMORY, Son of Charles Darwin Classes Them as Animals Growth as Habit. London, Sept. 5. Francis Darwin, son of the author of "The Origin of Spe cies," who delivered the presidential ad diess at the ojiening of the llritixh a' sociation at Dublin yesterday, is the first botanical president at the associa t:ons annual meetings for 40 vcars. Few more imaginative and more orig- nal speeches nave been delivered from the presidential chair than his, though the scientific audience shook their 'leads. Mr. Darwin said he appeared as the champion of a lost cause the doctrine of the inheritance of acquired charac ters. His argument was that plant must be elassed as animals in the way they respond to touch. He advanced proof to show that plants have memory, can develop habits and behave differently according to what we may call their mood. He went so far, in fact, as to argue that there is in plants something that corresponds very nearly to the nervous Bjstem in animals, and he as serted that plants are quite as sensitive tJ certain agencies as animals, and piite as capable of telegraphing from one part of the organism to another. We must believe," Mr. Darwin said, "that in plants there exists a faint copy of what we call consciousness in ourselves." Growth itself, in his view was a sort of habit, made possible bv mem ory in the cells, so that growth could bo changed at any period of progress bv the surrounding if not by a sort of free will. CONFESSES MURDER THAT HE DID NOT COMMIT. Butler Tells Court That He Killed Mrs. Luard in London. London, Sept. 5. A well-dressed man who refused to give his name, appeared at the Bow street police station the other evening and announced that he was the murderer of Mrs. Charles Ed ward Luard, who was mysteriously killed in a wood near London Aug. 24. He explained that Tie had been wan dering about the country since the crime. Scotland Yard was informed. nd an investigation of his Rtory was t once begun, winch resulted in learn ing that the man had been a butler in family of prominence, and that he was sufiering trom alcoholism.

B. The program c( the international conference on tu lerculosis, which will be held in this city this month, was made public today by Dr. Lawrence, b. Hick, lieud of the l'Lipp institute for poor consumptives snd chairman of tiie conference. The in ternational congr.-ss on tuberculosis, which will be held in "Washington this month, will be under the direction of Dr. Flick. The conference, Dr. Hick explained, is an organization made up of represen tatives of national associations for the study of tuberculosis from all parts of the world. The society was formed in 1902, when the first conference met in Leriin. Since then the conference has met yearly, in Paris in 1003; in Copen hagen in 1904; in Taris again in 1 it The Hague in lOOtf, and in Vienna in 1!'07. .Its seventh session will be held in Philadelphia this year, Sept, 23 to 6. "Each year sinoe its inception," said Dr. Flick, "the inemlier of tiie confer ence have had a story' to tell of great strides made toward the eventual con quering of consumption, and the confer ence this year will be remarkable for the telling of a progress twice as great as has been nwde in any vear before. In Philadelphia Blone, a reduction of 300 has been made in the deatn rate of the last six months from the same months in the year before. The total numlier of deaths resulting from con sumption last year in the city was ?..C00, and if the same rate of progress is kept up for six years to come, con sumption will lie abolished." "I am cure tnat in fifteen years or ss tuberculosis will be wiped out. All tiiat is needed is a wider knowledge of ow to prevent its spread. If we could each every one the simple methods of reventing contagion we would imme diately stop all further progress of the disease, and in a few years it would be gone. Their wide educational value is the reason for "holding the national con ferences. Thus we intend to reach as many people as we csn, through the papers, through exhibits to cost hun dreds of thousands of dollars, and through popular lectures." Among the countries to be represent at Philadelphia by from one to fif- een delegates are: Belgium, Denmark, if rmany, England, France, Italy, Greece, the Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Roumania, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland Spain and Hungary, (Mess, Sept. 5.

New York, Sept. 5. The Sun, in a di-patch from Dublin, says: VcHtcrday'a session of the British as sociation produced several most interest ing declarations by scientists in the Va rious scctioir. In the anthropological section, Professor Itidgevtay asseverated that no attempt to eradicate the ten dency to iinbilie alcohol in northern lati tudes could succeed, because the univer sal love of strong drink there was not the mTe outcome of vicious desires, but of climatic law. Philanthropist and legislators could not do any more than control it. Professor Ridgeway raised a warning that the tendency of present day legis lation Is toward a reduction of the mid die class element of society, which is greatly superior to the other classes, legislators if they wihh the nation to prosper, he said, must conform to the principles" followed by the stock breeder and discourage multiplication of the worst. Yet statesmen of both parties in Great Hritain had adopted the very opposite policy. Children of working men and women were educated at the cost of the state; free meals were given to them and probably some of them would be clothed at the expense of the taxpayers. The taxe entailed by this system so burdened the middle class that they postponed marriage and shrank from bringing up families, with the re sult that their numbers were falling. "Our legislators are bad stock masters, said the professor. "They are selecting those physically and morally most unfit to continue the race, while they are increasingly discouraging the propaga tion of what has been proved to be the mainstay, of every state." Mr. C. Walter Jones, an expert Illuminating Engineer of the Holophane Company, New York, will give informal talks on the subject of Ilium-; ination at No. 120 North Main Street Tuesday, September 8th, both morning and afternoon. Mr. Jones will discuss with the people of Barre, without charge, the application of the va rious high. efficiency lamps and reflectors in the saving of waste light and the proper illumination of stores, offices and residences.

Suit Case Outfit Included Single Hat and Three Pair of Hose. New York, Sept. 5. According to Mrs. E. C. McAllister, a wealthy busi ness woman of Miami, Fla., the follow ing articles of wearing apparel are all that is necessary for any practical woman for a three-months' tour of Europe: One pair tan shoes, three pairs of brown hose, one brilliantine skirt (double frill), three gauze union suits, one silk shirt waist, one brown silk I'.lon suit, one small hat, to match suit, one brown veil, one umbrella, six pocket handkerchiefs, six collars, three pairs of gloves, one lace waist (for evening wear), four white tailored waists, one rair corsets, three corset covers, two night dresses, one raincoat. "I made no mistake when I confined my luggage to one Binall suit ease," said Mrs. McAllister. "For ordinary wear I had a brown Eton suit with a small brown hat, veil, shoes and hose to match. I purchased four pair of hose, but found I only meded three. As a change from my brown suit, I carried half a dozen waists, one of lace for evening wear, cne of silk and the other four, the white kind which ere easily laundered. 'The party of tourists of which I was a member included many women and ec.eh was supplied with one or more bug trunks, and bags and boxes in numerable. I had hrard of the style and fashion alTected by the northern women and feared that they might re gard my wardrobe with disapproval. In stead, they made a heroine of me and said I was blazing the trail for women's comfort." Lecture on Hlumination. There will be a series of informal hetures given at the offices of the Consolidated Lighting company at 120 Torth Main street on Tuesday, Scptem lier 8th, morning and evening. Mr. C. Walter Jones, expert illtrml niitins engineer of the Holophane com pany, New York, will demonstrate to nil "'ho are interested in the subject of illumination, the application of the various high efficiency lamps nd re factors for efficiently and economically lighting stores, offices and residences. The subject of illumination is re ceiving more and more attention from all users of artificial light, and it is appreciated that as much money can bo lost through wasted light duo to in correct arrangement of outlets, as through a leaking gas meter or a noio in your pocket. The local lighting company lias assumed a very broad minded attitude on this subject, and hove arranged this series of lectures '.vilh the idea of educating the people of this city to the proper use of elec tric light. Mr. .loncs will take upjndi vidual installations with any merchant and advise him, without charge, as to the proper method of lighting his store. It is seldom that an opportunity Is effered to study the subject of illumi nation irt this manner, and it is to be hoped that the merchants and house holders of this city will take advantage of these lectures. Aside from its ed ucational feature, Mr. Jones' lecture is extremely interesting, as hp is iMpnppeci with various paraphernalia for demon strating the effect of the different lamps and reflectors on the eye. Mr. Jones has recently given his lec tures in New lfawi. New London, liridgeport, Springfield and other New England cities under the suspiees of t lie" local lighting companies, where t'irv have been largely attended. A Prophecy.

One hears many objections to the use of furnaces. The most common one is that rooms on 'the north side of the house are hard to heat. If the house is in an exposed situation and there is a heavy air pressure against one side of the house, the heat is naturally driven to the other side, for not only is the cold air forced in on the one side, but it is drawn out on the other. It fre quently happens that such a house should not have been heated by hot air, but by hot water or steam; a mistake which the heating engineer should have avoid ed. A frequent cause of trouble comes from having the furnace set in the mid dle of the cellar, or perhaps on the opposite side from the cold rooms. This is a mistake; it should be on the cold side, making the distance to the coldest rooms as short as possible.

Taft is such a servile cringer before Theodore Roosevelt a some of the newspaper dispatches would iiavfi it appear does not seem probable. It docs not comport with the general estimation of the man who displayed such signal independence and resource fulness in the Philippines and in Pana ma. Taft is a victim of too much Roosevelt. IF THE VERMONT DEMOCRATS HAD BEEN' DO W N -TO-DATE. Just how much of the Republican suc cess in the last campaign was due to down-to-datc methods of campaigning is merely a mater of conjecture. Never theless, to newspaper workers who have followed the progress of the pre-election canvass, it seems that the conditions were such that the voters could scarcely been been stirred from their lethargy had not the state committee had re course to printer's ink. Notoriously slow to be awakened, the Republican voters of Vermont were more than usu ally so this year, because there was not a decided enthusiasm for the party can didates and there were no live, stirring isues to be fought out like, for instance, that of local option. Hem, left alone, the voters would naturally have re mained away from the polls last Tues day, and Prouty's plurality would have been seriously trimmed from what was actually given him. Here, then, comes the evidences of n wide awake publicity committee, composed of newspaper writ ers who by skillful portrayal of dead matter aroused something like luke warm interest by the time the election came around. Had it not been for this work, we wouldn't have given a sou for Vermont's "barometer"; it would have been knocked into a cocked hat. That naturally leads to what the Dem ocratic party of Vermont might accom plish if it should adopt similar lines of campaigning, as skillfully carried out as done by tho Republicans.' We are liimty of the opinion that the Republican plurality would have been materially cut down, for there are in Vermont a lot of non-alliliated voters, wlw swing with their convictions or else with the cur rent. There was no Democratic anneal to their convictions, save for a rally here and there; and the current set de cidedly agnim-t that party. Therefore, there was no hope of cutting down the normal Republican plurality of a presi dential year. A little judicious adver tising would have gone a long way toward stemming the tide; and there is scarcely a newspaiter in the stale (Re publican as they all are with two or three exceptions) that would have re fused to accept legitimate advertising. If the party hopes for more success, it will have to compete with modern weapons. W I B.1 n III aMMHMM H I j CURRENT COMMENT. (icuiul, loyal, heurty, public-spirited lied 1..

With the experience of town after town this week trying to choose a rep rrscntative in tin legislature tv a vote of the majority as required by Vermont's ancient law, it will be small wonder if there is not another serious attempt made at tho next session to tt least so modify the statute as to permit a choice by plurality on the second ballot. The aggregate of ex pense, unnecessary expense, incurred in the several towns that this year ballot ed i many times without result would go a long way toward aecompliching tome practical and longneeded local good in other directions, if the matter is to be looked at from the economic viewpoint at all. But, back of all that everybody that knows anything at all iildmt the human nature of which he liinmelf has a part, knows that these fierce and continued contests leave a h'gacy of political jealousy and dis trust In-hind them that for tbe two yars intervening more or less affect local relations and conditions and then blossom out again in a renewed feud at the polls. It is not free government, it js a vendetta. St. Albans Mcsscn- If You Have Hot Yet Begun to Save Get Started Open an account of one dollar in our Sav ings Department, then keep adding to it.

The Middlebury Register expresses the opinion that "the time is rapidly approaching when automobiles will, be practically banished from the people's highways; that is, when those using them will be obliged to build their own roads." The automobile is so practical and has already become so much of nec essity that it will bo many year be fore the predictions of the Register comes true. I nfortuiiately, there are drivers, reckless and regardless of rights of others, that have placed the big whis cars In mere or less disfavor, but if this class can !c curbed and brought to A realizing sense of what is safe and sane in driving their nwuhincs there will lie little cause for complaint. The automobile parties from outside the state have been numerous this sea son and they are coming right along, spending lots of money very freely, and enjoying our splendid scenery to the full. To banish the automobile from the highways of the state would be killing the proverbial goose laying golden egs. Keep on improving high ways and let the automobile use them. Reckless drivers will las regulated and curiied in time, in the meantime wel come the auto Vermont's attractions are being adiertisvd as they never were before. Kwanton Courier.

REYNOLDS. BEN A. EASTMAN, Pres. F. G. HOWLAND, Treas. I Editor Halvosa'a View of District Politics. Every section of the country hss a peculiar ethical code that determines just what may be done politically in that section without giving olfenie, lint the code current in this congressional district has them, all climbing at the qnarter-pnle for out and out commer cialism, the rule being that no man ss permitted to put up an active fignt egaintt the Republican nominee if the Democratic district committee can pre vent it. Editor Halvosa evidently over stepped the dead line when challenging Congressman IX J. Foster to a series ct joint debates, and, he made a bad matter worse when proving beyond the shadow of a doubt that the Hon. IT. Henry Towers had in reality" performed r-ine-tcnths of the work that the pre9 ent Republican nominee claimed credit for. Chairman Donnelly of the Demo rratio district committee, lias stated in the presence of reliable witnesses, that republican. Fosters influence undoubt edly turned the trick neeessarv to place a third candidate in the field the straw Democrat and this, merely becau Halvosa had run Foster up in a corner on his past record and was prepared to gc on the stump and finish up the job in a heart-to-heart talk with the voters The fact of the matter is, that beyond a few 3ionest men, such as James E. I'-iivke of Burlington, James E. Burke of West Rutland, and O. llerliert Tape of Barre, the leading Democrats of Vermont are part and parcel of the political machine that controls the sit uation in this state by crooked deals and fake fights. The ethical code -current In this district is certainly a pc- cviliar one! Who said that you couldn't fool the people all of the timet John Thompson. Democrat and D. J. j Foster.

The application of shade and Bern. shade to tobacco plants has worked considerable of a revolution In this Important crop. In Connecticut by the use of expensive Binding mothods It has been possible to greatly change the character of the crop, while In other sections by simpler methods of natural shading liuportnut modifications in typo are attained. The department of agriculture reports a simple corn-to- bneco pluntlng experiment at the Ken tucky experiment station, covering a period of three years, where the tobac co was planted between rows of corn, The tobacco was of a finer texture and brought a higher price. Most soils which have been cropped to tobacco for any length of time are deficient in Tcgetable matter. At the eame time commercial fertilize are necessary la the production of such a highly spe cialized crop as tobacco, bat it Is only COOLBX HIBBID TOBACCO. o by the incorporation with the soil year fter year of a considerable amount of vegetable matter that its proper phys ical condition can be maintained and improved. An ideal tobacco soil Vlll produce heavy yields of almost any crop. Such a sol) la stated by George T. McNelsa, tobacco expert of the de partment of agriculture, as one "of good depth, mellowness and water holding capacity, and In order to pos sess these a soil must contain a con- alderable quantity of decayed regf table matter." without these. basfr conditions it Is not to un expected "that full benefit to tobacco or any other crop can be derived in tbla way. r" '"A Sure-enough Knocker.

With very few exceptions the whole of the hind under grain of any kind If absolutely flat If It Is not so by ua ture tbo Jnpnncs farmer levels and banks It up till it Is horizontal. In the narrow valloys there are elaborate aeries of terraces running up the slope of the hills -till the fields become sc mall as to accommodate but a dotibls row of plants. Tbe more typical grain A MOBAIO COLD AKD OKBEJI. country, however, lies In broader val leys or along tho coast, where there are many wide plalua which were once be neath tbe water. If one looks dowr on these from a slight elevation they appear like some elaborately designed mathematical figure or as though a cloth had been spread over the earth with mosaic patterns In gold and greea Each little field Is as nearly rectnngn lnr as circumstances will allow. Many of them, therefore, are perfect rectan gles, for where tbe plain Is broad it Is easy to (it into It small fields of twen ty or thirty feet In length. Many of tbe pints are even less than this. Som barley fields are only alx feet by a dozen or so. The pattern of this mosaic Is vividly marked out by the coloring of the varl ous crops. Today the barley Is ripe and stands golden in the sunshine. The riceflelds, however, are but bare ex panses of mud or water, for the rice is not yet planted out. but Is growing In small, oblong fields by itself, which how a vivid enicrald green growth of little plonts only three or four inches high. At tbe end of May some of th farmers are beginning to reap theli ripe barley and wbeat. and when this Is finished they will be free to plant out what Is to then tbe much more Important crop, the rice, neaping and planting of grain together one may see In the same acre. There Is no broadcast sowing of grain here. Each seed grain has an Individuality and Is separately tended Tbe barley Is planted In rows, perhaps three feet or six feet long, and each row Is a foot or eighteen Inches from the next, so that a worker can pas between the rows to tend and weed and finally to reap each Individual plant In many cases epch row grows on a little semicircular ridge four or five feet horizontally and about a foot high, so that tbe barley Is well drain ed, though the next little field may He under several Inches of water. In the whole district of Okuna there wa only oae of the ripe fields "laid" by the wind, and that was one of the lar gernearly thirty feet across. It is not to be inferred from this that the Japs neso farmers lo not hare to contend with heavy winds and pitiless, beating rains. Japan is a particularly windy country, and this year hes been a very bad season, for even in April there was heavy snow snow so thick that it entirely disorganized the telegraphic and railway communication for a few days. The wheat and barley are all sown in the autumn, so that they get the benefit of the winter sunshine, which Is clear and brilliant and very hot. This, of course, is the chief cause Japanese ccttincj the qbaix. of the early ripealng of the grain, for from the time It is sown till the time it is reaped it never has a spell of dull weather that lasts more than a few ays. Japanese men and women cut their rows of grain by holding each plant'a etalks together in one hand and cut ting them off with a sharp, bent knife at the end of a straight handle n foot or more in length. The handful is laid tidily on the ridge where it has grown, and Its neighbor Is placed beside It till tbe small field Is covered by tbe straws. To thrash, the beads are cut off the stalks and then pounded with a heavy wooden mallet Franklin's Press. Tbe press upon w hich Franklin worked in Lenden ia 1725 Is preserved In the patent Bee at Washington. It Is a clumsy strut-lure almost entirely of wood and Is known as tbe Ramsge Sress. jjajpasBaawiaaa-i- i in mtaannK:tta8ammaaattJ ABOUT THE STATE iunmmnmmRiinimumt: The resignation of Burt lluhl, road imuU'r of the Central division of the Central Vermont railway, tmk effect September 1.

Judge Seneca Huselton of Burling ton has handed down a decision of the cases of the state against the Rut land and Central Vermont railroad companies for taxes which were claim ed to be due and unpaid, awarded the state the full amount of its claims. The amounts involved are: Rutland rail road, $22,000? Central Vermont, $35, 000. The cases will be carried to the supreme court at the October term. Suits were brought May 20 by At torney General Clark C. Fitts against the Central Vermont railroad and the Rutland railroad for taxea which were claimed to be due and unpaid, amount ing in the case of the Central Vermont to $60,000 and in the cftse of the Rut land railroad to $30,000. The suits were returnable at the Grand Isle county court at the August term. The statute imposes an absolute tax of i per cent, on the appraised value of the Central Vermont and its leased lines in the state is $91,179, but a railroad corporation may, in lieu of the 1 per cent, tax, pay a minimum rate of 2Vi per cent, on tho gross earnings when they do not. exceed $2,000 per mile of the roadbed of each railroad lo cated within the state. Then this rate increases as the earnings per mile increase.- The Central Vermont railroad com pany for the year of 1007 figured in all of its side track and spur tracks as roadbed, making the roadbed for Vermont 410 miles. The returns pre viously given by the company to tlie smte commissioner oi taxes maue mileage 207 miles. The increase in oadlMd increases the taxes and makes the difference of $20,000 a year. The attorney general and the com missioner of state taxes contended that the mileage of 297 miles was the cor rect basis upon which the taxation should be figured and they further claimed that inasmuch as the company had not paid what Mas due on the gross earnings it no longer had the option to pa v on the gross earnings, out, musi pay the 1 per cent. tax. amounting to S3P.0O0 above what had already been pit id. The statute also imposes a penalty of 100 a day lor tne lauure iu when due, and the accrued penalties in this instance were figured at $20,000, but the court has the right to remit th penalty. The Rutland railroart company al so elected to pav on the gross earnings. Tb law requires thst the taxes be jaid KEEP YOUR HEAD UNCOVERED. rbe roaataat Wearies; ef a Hat Freea. gatea Dandraff Germs.

Tho contention of tho commissioner of state taxea and the attorney general was that the strict letter of the ataue should bo adhered to, in making the computations, that the yearly earning of the Rualand railroad do not conic within the minimum rax rate, and that tho proper rate would increaao the company's taxes $10,000 a year, also tlat the company had no option but to pay the full tax on its valuation, mak ing a difference of I22..00O.
