WELLS & HUMPHREY
When you buy your range—Buy a Copper-Clad
on the workers through in-
creased prices may be borne,
eVen though unequal and un-
just, while wages are good
and employment steady.
But with reduced earnings,
the shifted taxes become a I
serious item, and curtail pur- !
chasing power.
This in turn holds back in- I
dustry, since the workers are I
the great consumers. .
When public revenues de-
crease because of slackening
in business there is a hunt for
new kinds of taxes rather
than for economy. And*.in
keeping with the old maxim,
there is usually ah effort to
put the ne.w taxes on some
one who can shift them.
Just at this time the ques-
ion of taxes is receiving more ,
attention from the general:
public than ever before, and
it is very probable that the >
day is not far distant when I
some entirely different sys-
tem will be adopted.
An amendment to the tax
revision bill making tax re-1
turns subject to the inspection
of certain Congressional com-
mittees was adopted by the
House through the combined
votes of Democrats and Pro-
gressive Republicans. Opening
corporation tax returns to the
inspection of. state officials,
regardless of whether or not
the state has an income tax
law of its own, which is a
requirement of the present
law, was another controver-
sial amendment passed. Re-
publican speakers and defend-
ers of the Mellon plan met
the onslaught . as best they
could, but Congress has con-
cluded th^t this information
is necessary for proper guid-
ance of committees. ,
WHXN I GOT MARRIED
I married January the 24th, 1893 in
Palestine, Texas. I married a farm- ‘
er’s daughter, Lydik Ellen Lucas. I
married In the court house, the coun-
ty judge, McReynolds, officiating, f
After the wedding we went and
weighed. I weighed 199 and she tip-
ped the scales at 90 pounds. We
went to the f'estaurimJrand ate din-
ner. I then bought a Nouble-bit axe
a quart of whiskey and a bottle of
Kendal’s Spavin Cure. then got
In th<^wagon and started home fifty
miles. Oh, how I regret ever drink-
ing that hellish, damnable stuff, but
I did-and I can’t help that now. I
have often been asked when I drank
the last liquor. , I drank the last in
1897, in Oklahoma, getting on a bend-
er for a high lonesome. Then I took
in Velma, Area, and Tulsa, Oklahot
ma towns. I bought the ji<iuor from
a bootlegger. There is one thing in
my life that I am proud of, that is,
I quit whiskey" when there
open saloons in Bbnham, Texas. z
