MR. ROCKEFELLER'S PROTEST.
throw of the Sultan Abdul
Hamid.
ALL FAVOR OF IMPROVEMENTS
, (Continued from page one )
"There may have been enthus
iastic believers in the regenera
tion of John D. Rockefeller, who
expected him, in a spirit of be
nignity, to concede the merit of
an income tax. But if such there
were, their faith has received a
severe jolt," says The Telegram
' 'There is not a thing about the
proposal of an income tax which
Mr. Rockefeller likes. The great
oil kinor denounces the whole
scheme as one of confiscation,
and if there is anything he de
tests, it, is confiscation unless,
perchance, he should be at the
right end of the deal. But in
this matter of an income tax, Mr.
Rockefeller is an honest man;
what he has acquired, to the ex
tent of some hundreds of millions,
he has acquired within the pale
of that honesty which appears
respectable in court, and the
Government has no right to lay
its finger upon a penny.
"'A? to the disparity between
ethical and legal honesty, and
the manner in which " it is said to
have been demonstrated in the
career of Mr. Rockefeller, vol
umes have been written and other
volumes probably will be written.
But, as Kipling says, all that is
another story. The point which
Mr. Rockefeller really makes,' is
that he has the money more of
it than anyone else and it should
be his right to keep every cent
of it, excet)t what he chooses to
give away for the honor, and glory
of the Rockfeller name.
1 'According to the Rockefeller
logic concerning taxation, it is
all right enough that the day la
borer, who works for two dollars
per diem, should' spend $1.50 of
that amount for actual living ex
penses, and that 35 to 50 per
cent of that expenditure should
be a. tax which the trusts collect
by favor of the government.
"There is absolutely nothing
Wrong in this . arrangement; be
cause a man who has not sense
enough to secure an income of
better than $2 a day deserves to
be exploited. Such a man is a
very proper victim for the tax
gatherer, whether the latter is in
the service of the trusts or the
government.
"A wise and just government,
as Mr. Rockfeller conceives and
appreciates wisdom and justice
in government, is one that will
see to it that its tax is collected
from the proper " sourcefrom
the source that has furnished
bulk of governmental expendi
ture since time began. This in
novation of the tax gatherer ex
ploiting the exploiter is intolerable."
Interesting Dogs.
Prof. Home' continues to
attract and please large and
enthusiastic audiences at the
Palace theater. Last night he
put on several new acts, one of
which is the posing of one of his
dogs in famous scenes. This
act is one of the cutest ever and
took with the audiences last
night. The pictures shown are
good, both being of the blood
and thunder order. "Famine in
the Forest," is the longest and
best and is very interesting.
"In the Sultan's Power" is a
story of an American girl being
forced to marry a Turk to save
her father from financial ruin.
Her American lover follows her
to Turkey and some exciting
events take place, the lover
finally enlisting with the Young
Turks and being in at the over-
This is unfair and will keep peo

the latter is said to have fired a shot

The Crime of Idleness
Oregon Is the Place
The increase in murders and suicides
during the summer months is due in a
measure to the heat, Coroner Hoffman
of Chicago, declared yesterday. His
report of July showed 37 suicides and
12 . murders, three of the latter being
murder and suicide. Twenty-four mur
ders and 45 suicides were reported in
June. . f
T. J. Thatcher, Bogard and three or
four others form a party that is now in
the Five Rivers country on a hunting
and fishing trip.
Idleness means trouble for any one
It's the same with a lazy liver. It
causes constipation, headache, jaundice,

Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes
Twelve years ago. says an
automobile enthusiast, the
United States had 1,000 auto
mobiles. Now it has. 160,000,
one for each 500 inhabitants.
This year's output is expected to
double the number in use and
will have a value of $130,000,
0Q0. The machines registered
are to be the feature of our line the coming season ; and we want every
man of you to know it early, and keep it in mind for the time when you
next think of buying clothes.
We are making a specialty of these goods because we want you to get
the greatest possible value for your money. You want value ; that's the
only real way to economize in clothes ; and value means the sort of quality
Hart Schaffner & Marx put into their goods. They're all-wool, in every
thread of the fabrics ; they represent the products of . the best weavers in
the world, and they offer a greater variety for your selection than you'll
find in any half dozen other makes put together.
But all-wool, vitally important as it is to your interests as a wearer, is
not the only thing we know about Hart Schaffner & Marx quality. These
clothes are designed right ; the whole question of fit depends on that ; and
it's important to you to know that you can be correctly fitted without trou
ble here. They're correct in style, of course ; and perfectly tailored ; these
makers know their business well enough not to spoil good all-wool fabrics,
fine linings and trimmings by designing and tailoring that are wrong. Hart
Schaffner & Marx are the best clothes makers in the world ; and every
dollar of value they put in the goods is there foryou to get out in wear.
There's a lot of inferior, cotton-mixed clothing in the market ; pretty
poor stuff, some of it. It looks pretty good ; enough so to enable dealers
to charge a good price for it; it isn't as a rule worth what it costs.
