New York World, A morning newspaper says that “the Chicago convention declared against equal rights by proposing to tax men with certain incomes twice, once on their property and again on its profits.” - This is not a true statement of the purpose or effect of an income tax. ‘Lhe federal government does not tax men “on their property.” With- out meaning to be invidious, but simply for the sake of illustrating by examples, we ask what taxes for the support of the national government are paid by Mr. Vanderbilt, Mr. Aster, Mr. Rockfeller, Mr. Gould, Mr. Pierpont Morgan, or any of our very rich men? They havea vast amount of property which the federal government would defend in case of foreign war, or protect in case of riot and mob yiolence, as it did at Chicago. What return do these citizens make for their protec- tion? On theimported goods which they buy they pay an average duty of 42 per cent. But so does every farmer, mechanic, clerk, day laborer and all other consumers. LEight-tenths of all the customs duties are collected upon articles of universal use; so that wealth, while paying slightly more per capita owing to the larger de- mands of luxury, does not contrib- ute to the support of the goverment at all in proportion to benefits re- ceived or ability to pay. Nearly one-half of the national revenue is collected from internal taxes, chiefly on whiskey, beer and tobacco. The poor—that is to say the masses—certainly pay the larger portion of this. There are no federal taxes on property, nor any on accumulated wealth in any form. It was to reme- dy in part this inequality and injus- tice that a small tax on incomes above $4,000 was voted by congress. - The rich men who succeeded in nul- lifying this tax by inducing the su- preme court not only to go back on the decisions of a century, but to oe reverse its own previous ruling in the same case, made the poorest in- vestment that plutocracy ever indulged in. They could better have afforded to pay the tax ten times over than to have raised the storm which has beat down the securities and threatens them with greater losses still. Drank Water From an Embalming Jug. Sedalia, Mo., August 11.—George Stanley, Conway Fleming, Arthur Brown, John and Charles Fleming, all residents of Lamonte, Pettis Co., were poisoned today by drinking water from a jug that had contained embalming fluid. The five men left Lamonte for Dunksburg to engage in baling hay and took with them, for the purpose of carrying water, a jug that had previously been used by the village undertaker for holding embalming fluid, although the fact was not known. All drank of the water and were made deathly sick, three of them turning black in the face. Dr. Penquite was summoned and the patients are now pronounced out of danger. Clinton Democrat: There is a scarcity of home grown potatoes on the Clinton market, owing to the comparatiyely small acreage planted. One farmer who raised 200 bushels is reported to have refused 35 cents a bushel and is holding out for 50. In Kansas however, there is a differ- ent state of things. Twelve cents a bushel is the ruling figure in Law- rence, but sales have basen made as low as eight cents. In Kansas City -| Snake Hill, N.

Jefferson City, Mo, Aug. 12— Lieutenant Governor J. B. O’Meara arrived this morniog from St. Louis Louis and will discharge the duties of Governor during the absence of Governor Stone in New York. Acting Governor O’Meara this morning pardoned Isaac Levy, alias “Sheeny Mike,” sentenced at the May term, 1894, of the Clinton coun- ty circuit court to the penitentiary for robbery for 25 vears, for the reason that he considered the sen- tence excessive. Giris Faint at Their Post. Chicago, Ill., Aug. 11.—The con- tinued heat has greatly affected po- lice patrolmen and letter carriers About fifty of the latter have been compelled to quit work temporarily and two or three may die. Some of the big department stores have, dur- ing the past few days, practically been turned in hospitals. The girl clerks have fainted by the dozens at their counters and hundreds of them haye quit work on account of the heat. Removal. We take pleasure in announcing that after this date Parks Sure cure will re- move all traces ot rheumatism, kidney trovbles and liver complaint from the user.

L Tncker London, Aug. *10.—-The Athens correspondent of the Daily News telegraphs that a body of Mussul mans yesterday butchered 30 un armed Christians within the pre- cincts of the monastery at Anopolie, near Candia. One priest was burned alive. The correspondent adds that Col. Abdulab, a Kurd, who is now in Macedonia, will supersede Hassan Pasha, Governor of Candia.

It’s the grav el train that does the work in na- tional elections and that is why the republican bosses and manufacturers are threatening the laboring men in their employ and trying to hold them in line for McKinley.

Mansfield, O., Aug. 13.—Miss Celia Rose, a young woman 24 years of age, is in jail here, charged with killing her father, mother and broth- er with poison. Daniel Rose was a farmer and lived near Newville, O. He and his wife and son died recent- ly within a few days of each other.

The men who lifted the crates from the car to the delivery wagon thought they heard a peculiar noise in one of the cases and the top was taken off. There, crowded in the tiny square spaces meant for the egge, were four or five chicks, standing partly in their shells. Laporte, Ind., Aug. 12 —Northero Indiana was swept by a severe storm last night. Wm. Kupps of Monon was struck by lightning. His !ower limbs were frightfully scarred, total paralysis being produced. Near Ken- dallville, Elmer Roherty and W. E. Engle attempted to cross the rail- road tracks to find a place of refuge from the storm when they were struck by a train and instantly kill- ed. Ina other localities great damage is reported Fairbury, Ill, Aug., 12 —The out look for farmera is becoming serious in this section.
