Roscoe Bay, of Syracuse university, Syracuse, N Y., has, by his utterences defending meltimillionaires and their bsutness practices, come to be recognized as the mouthpiece of great wealth in this country. In view of that fact n€ tn order to secure an expressiam which would be representative of the holders of “swollen fortunes,” the editor of the Seatle Star asked Chancellor day “for a statement fer publication as w what, in his opinion, the rich men of the nation should do tf congress should enact an inheritance tax law upon the lines urged by the president.’ Chan- cellor Day replied as follows: BY JAMES ROSCOE DAY, D. o., SGHANCELLOR OF SYRACUSE!

President Roosotelt, in his speech before the National Editor ial Association, at thé Jamestown exposttion, said in my judgment the tnheritance tax fs both a far better method of taxation, and far more {mportant for the purpose I have in view—the purpose of having the swolles for- tunes of the Gountry tear in pro-| portion to their sive a constantly | increasing burden of taxation. These fortunes exist solely be cause of the protection given the owners by the public. They are a constant source of care and anxfety to the public, and it is eminently just that they should be forced to pay heavily for the protection given them. I believe that the tax should contain the progressive princtple. Whatever any individual recetves, whether by gift, bequest or devise in‘ life or in death, should, after a certain amount ts reached, be tn creasing! yburdened; and the rate of taxation should be increased ia proportion to the remoteness of | | blood of the man receiving from SOLE AGENCY POR CARMART'S WORKING CLOTHES But the vatués of the first of the week are still the Femember we guarantee every In our large stock (except pat and if you do not find them perfectly satisfactory, back and we will give you a new Now isn’t that confi dence?
