that the people of the United States are

Japanese Taxes v
A little publication sent out by tba
Bureau of Commerce the either day deal-
ing with the Income tax. threw some
interesting light on this question of actual
war with Japan because of the California
anttaUeu land law. . The weight of taxa-
tion under which Japan la now otmggllng
has been frequently cKed aa .one of the
reasons why that Nation would not hasti-
ly plunge Into a- clash at anno with a
strong Nation and the recent enactment
of a new income tax law In Japan gtves
added emphasis to the assertion.
U. S. Orfrtofff laey. '' "V--While
a howl Is going up in this coun-
try over' the Underwood .bill's terms of
taxation on Incomes ranging from 1 to 4
per -cent Japan la being saddled with an
Income tax which ranges frora fl-a per
cent to SI per cent. On private Incomes
the taxing begin with a minimum of
BUM on which a tax of 1 1-1 per cent
ia paid; From this point the tax rises
gradually until It reaches l.t on all an-
nual incomes above f60e up to KOOO. The
tax then increases aa follows: . Income
above 17600 pay It per cent above tlO.m
14 per cent above 116906 It per cent
above $laOO0 18 per cent above tIe.OC?
SO per -cent above WO.000 XI per cent.
These figures make the ' rate of taxa-
tion In the Underwood bill now pending
before the - Senate look cheap regular
bargain counter rates.
Nor Is this all Japan la doing la th
way of taxing her people In these piping
time of peace.' Commercial Income are
taxed almost aa heavily. Theee rate
tart with Income above 12500 which
pay a 4 per cent annual tax .and advance
s-raduallx un to incomes above . lloe.OOo.
which under the new law passed last
March are comoelled to nay
IB per
Joint stock companies are - also taxed
4 1-4 per cent on their Incomes.
Theae figured ought to give those who
appear to sit In dally fear of having
Japan Jerk a few feathers out of the
American eagle something to Juggle with.

a few hours the dogs were wanting about

been disturbed.
Aooording to Dr. carrei me same eouia
be done to the human system and he Is
authority tor the statement that blood
vessels and other organs can be success-
fully transnlanted and will continue to
grow In the human body.
Another local physician predicted Walk-
er's recovery although be might be par-
alysed for life. This doctor said he had
several cases Just like tbe Macon one
snd in only one of them did the patient
die.
Other high medical authorities here to
