CONS EPTiN
BY THE UNRIVALLE
Cured by Four.
Prevention of Consumption, early*
warfare with its germs, before the
lan have aetually become involved
in active ravages of the bacilli, can
he suceasfal only by ose of meams
that render tisues sound and capable
of resisting the disease germs whiek
must always and lodgment and nour
ishment in order to net up their well
known process of destruction.
To thus forestall this enemy two
properties must be possessed by the
sucessfal treatueate-one to protect
the tissues, until they are made Arm
and strong, from germs that may be
present; and one to restore the nor
mal tone and resisting powers of
weakened tissue cells.
The Arst of these properties is germ
icidal: the other is building or res
torative. Predisposed and actual
consumptives also should learn that
there is no remedy known to science
which possenses the building and pro
tective powers of the spiendid Emul
sion prepared in the great laborator
tes of Dr. Slocum in New York City.
This wonderful food remedy in the
moast potent to forestall consumption
or any wasting diseaset it builds the
tissues beyond the power of germs to
assail them and it boldU all germs at
bay while it builds.
In the matter of care. the treatment
of Dr. Slocam embraces four distinct
preparations. itseluding the wonder
ful Emulsion, and is positively unap
preached by any other system in
point of perfection of results.
The preventive and curative poteney
of the great Slocum System of Treat
ment account largely for the fact that
fewer than 40,000 graves were dug

VE=RAL RESOLUTI DOT
One Opposes Personal Tax Meas
ute Pending in Congress.
MR. RAL-TON'S REMARKS
The Board of Trade met in the hall of
Mdsonic Temple last evening. and consid
ered the bills pending in Congress for a
personal tax law and relating to the pay
ment of taxes.~ The board adopted a reso
lution in opposition to any personal tax
bill. Another resolution favored the pas
sage of the bill providing that taxes may
be, paid either in annual or semi-annual in
stallments, and that no' penalty- shall be
Incurred until after the-end of the year.
The meeting was called to orde* by Mr.
Thomas W. Smith, president of the board,
Mr. George H. Harries being secretary. Mr.
Smith announced that the meeting was
called to consider the report of the commit.
tee on taxation and assessnient. Mr. Jesse
B. Wilson, chairman of that committee,
referred briefly to his report, already ren
dered and printed in the annual report of
the board. His committee, In addition t6
that report, presented resolutions which the
committee had adopted.
Mr. Jackson H. Ralston, from the same
committee presented the resolutions to the
board. he first of them approved the bill
now Pending in Congress Providing that no
penalty shall be charged against taxpayers
Until the close of the tax Year, but allow
ing the payment of taxes in two annual
installments. This resolution was adopted
by the board unanimously
Mr. Ralston then reported the following,
which had been adopted by the committee:
. "Resolved, That, believing a tax on per
sonal property ais inimical to the best In
terests of the District of Columbia. we are
opposed to this bill or to any bill which
proposes to tax personal property."
Mr. Ralston Critietnes Commissioners.
Mr. Ralston spoke at some length on the
personal tax bill pending in Congress, and
said the committee was as greatly opposed
to that as it was to the first bill intro
duced. In commenting on the measure he
said he expressed his personal ideas rather
than those of the committee.
"The Commissioners of the District " he
said. "have reported favorably on the pres
ent bill. with amendments. and the papers
of today contain a defense of their action.
I speak of It as a defense, because, with
all due respect to the Commissioners, it
must be clear to them that they are not
following the wishes of an immense major
ity of our citizens. I do not believe there
is any considerable numner of citizens of
Washington who believe in a personal tax.
I do believe they are entirely opposed to
this bill. and to that extent the stand the
Commissioners have taken has placed them
in opposition not only to the wishes, but
to the best interests of their fellow citi
zens, and In saying that I do not reflect
upon their integrity of purpose.
"They say in the. first place that it is nec
essary that this should be done; that the
revenues of the District of Columbia are
lacking to such an extent that they must
be pieced out in this manner. I venture to
say that statement is erroneous for this
reason: Before any personal tax law can go
into effect in the District of Columbia I
am advised by the assessor that we will
have a large increase, a very material in
crease, in the landed assessments in the
District of Columbia. There are complaints
at the present time, and I think well found
ed, that large tracts of land in the District
of Columbia, according to the present meas
ure of value, are undervalued. Our reve
nues from .that source .will be largely In.
creased by the assessment to go into effect
next July. That being so, we have a nat
Ural and a proper source of revenue for the
District of Columbia without any Personal
tax whatsoever.
Declare* Assessament is Inquisitoria.
They say further that the proposed tax
Is not inquisitorial. I am at a loss to un
derstand What is meant by the term Inqui
sitorial if it does not apply to this pro
posed tax. It means, I suppose, an in
vestigat'ion into private affairs. There is
no investigation of the debits and credits
of the ledger of the business man, but there
is involved in the tax an investigation into
his private property. The assessors may
reject a statement of a citizen if they are
not satisfied as to its correctness and the,
board may examine into the personal prop
erty involved. The mechanic is to have his
tools inspected, the merchant is to have his
stock inspected mnd the citizen may have
his furniture inspected. I do not know
what the word Inquisitorial means if that
is not inquisitorial.
"The personal tax the CommIssioners
favor Is a tax on honesty. The man who
turns i4 his report is placed at a disad
vantage as compared with his dishortest
neighbor. I undertake to say that any law
which has no better foundation for its cor
rect enforcemnent than the honesty 'of the
community to be subjected to that sort of
temptation rests on a shifting and uncer'
tam~ foundation and cannot operate equally.
"But there are more Important objections.
There are such things as principles of tax
ation. The Commissioners' plan is where
you see a head hit it. There should be
something better than that. They say that
personal taxes should be paid because per
sonal property is protected and that is the
reason foi- this- tax. I thirnk if that argu
ment is good at all it would apply to a poll
tax, for men are protected before property.
But that is no measure of taxation. The
true rule is the exact benefits conferred by
the government. If you want to find
whether personal property would be bene
fited by this taxation consider what would
be the value of personal property if that
protection were withdrawn. You will find
that, if the police force were withdrawn
from the District of Columbia and if there
were no fire- department here, then the per
sonal property in the District would be
worth every dollar It is worth today. This
attitude assumes that the whole -purpose
of government Is to give protection to prop
erty where that is only one of the purposes
of the government. Our government gives
streets, roads, sewers, sidewalks, light, po
lice, schools, libraries, water and a hundred
things whIch have no relation whatever
to the protection of personal property."
Mr. Raleton Quoted the statement of the
Commissioners relative to the need of
money for a filtration plant, a sewage dis
posal system, a municipal ' building and
other extraordinary expenses.
"The direct result of putting up a munici
pal building," he said, "would be to in
crease the value of .land all around it.'
Water filtration and sewage disposal will
make life in the District more pleasant and
'increase the value of land:' unprovement
of streets and roads, the elimination of
grade crossings, will increase the value of
land. That Is what should bear the burden
of this tar, and not the personal property
of the District."
Mr. Ralston said a franchise tax, of wPhich
he did, not approve, 'was eeninently mnore
flesirable than a- personal tax. The' rail
'roads, gas and ele~tric light comepanies have
a takiable value of $8,000,000 or #40,000;000.
The railroadg pay.' $100000,- but the- gas
company, with the nost valuable franchise
an~d uing the public streets, pays uothing
.atjwesent.
Mr. KL K Darneie, the assessor-dof the
District, and secretary ot the assessment
comanIttee, said he thought he had not
'beau correotly quoted by the. speaker, and
that he had stated that when the work of
eaanata was cefipletsd there would
