The Alaskan Railroad, post offices, forts, arsenals, etc., are not taxed, nor is any property used or controlled by the United States and state governments assessed for taxes, j The income now derive. 1 from taxes paid by the railroads ! and which would be lost under government control would have to come from some source, and the experience of gov-ernment control of the railroads during the war suggests a deficit instead of ;i profit. How would the national, state and municipal governments make up this loss?

Did It Ever Occur to You That a man would be far bet-ter off serving a jail sentence than having to live with some women. i That it is unwise to demon-strate your cheap car's speed limit. That a person who would take a toy from a baby's buggy is mighty small. That any business man is loser when he advertises something that never happens. That some people would have appreciated seeing the erection of a $35,000 apartment house in the "Old Reliable." That lots of trouble can be dodged, but there is very little chance to escape the fellow who insists on telling you about his vacation. That "Babe" is making it as hard on Andy as some of the girls are doing here for some of boys. ; - . : That any time you get into deep water, don't open your mouth, but swim. That it's high time; that Utah's knockers put away their ham-mers and help build their state. Has California any better at-tractions? That a New York physician says: "Every kiss is a step nearer the grave." Evidently there-ar- e a number of girls dead who don't know it ; been to heaven and only thought they had. That it has been said that every bachelor who remains so "is cheating some girl." But just cast your eye over the bachelors you know and you will dismiss that thought. That Ben has put, not the fear of God, but the fear of a gun, into the hearts of a number in Bingham. That there is no immodesty in dress when there is modesty in thought. That we read the other day of a horse who stepped on a man's face. When we look In a glass we are reminded of the fact. . That when you refuse to do a mean act your enemies think you can't. That statistics say there are 7,000 widows in Pasadena, Cal. Must be unhealthy down in that country for husbands. That the less a woman's hat looks like a hat, the better she likes it. That insects have brains-other- wise how would they know where you intended to camp. That John D. and his son deny the statement their homes have been mortgaged. That it has been said the er is rewriting the Bible. Maybe he will be able to write one to his liking. That if you do housework at $6.00 a week, that's domestic ser-vice; if you do it for nothing, that's matrimony. That every employee of the U. S. Mining Company should appreciate the fact they are soon to have a real change room. That we should be thankful the cloudburst didn't drop here on Monday night. That a deputy should be per-mitted to play a game of "sluff" if he so desired. . That Captain Dick took the prize by reason of our inability to participate. SILENCE kl AUCT10M SALES ttn Employ In He4bn4 WqM Fund f Valu in th United Stat. Auction sales can now be carried on by electricity through a method i that baa been tried out In Holland, The proverbial taciturnity of the peo-ple In that country account for the aucceaa of the method there, and no doubt most people would be glad to do away with the objectionable noise that prevails at auctions. In the present case, the method is applied to selling eggs In the weekly markets which are held In the agri-cultural districts. The eggs are sold In lots of 2,500 In this case. Each bid-der baa t numbered teat provided with a posh button and electrle wiring that goes to the seller's stand. A large dial Is set up here and It contains fig-ures around It ranging from lowest to highest prices. Near It Is a board with corresponding sets of figures and each one of these can be lighted up by an electric lamp. The seller explains the nature of the goods and then make a contact to motor device so that the hand move very slowly over the dial. When at certain figure, a bidder presses his button and this light up tha corresponding figure oo the board and the band atop. Then It goes on again and a second bidder can Indi-cate a larger figure, and so oo. The board shows at once which 1 Che high-est figure bid and an electrle register also Indicate the number ot th seat occupied by th bidder . .. . . Large Heads and Brain. It I not the lse of the brain but the texture that determines the qual-ity. We have the authority! of emi-nent surgeons for the statement that the majority of large heads generally contain a spongy, watery brain. ' Significant Silence. You never hear the mnn, who Is lucky laying anything about the proverbial' luck of the fool. Boston Evening transcript... |
