JAMESTOWN'. N. Y., August 23. —- Lawson Partly secretary of the New York Tax Reform association. address ed the league of American Mnuiclpnll ties here today on local option in tax- dtion. Mr. Hardy said: "The League of American municipal- ities at its last convention at Charles ton. S. C.. unanimously adopted certain resolutions outlining the changes which should be made in the constitutions and statutes of our states. in order that progress in taxation may be possible. “it is less than nine months since that convention was held. yet action has been taken in several states in ac- the league. ‘ The resolutions are as fol- lows: “Resolved That all provisions in state constitutions should be abolished. which restrict the power of the Legisla- ture to regulate assessment and taxa- tion. “Resolved. That so much state reve- nue as may be required in excess of that derived from specific taxes should be apportioned to and paid by the coun- ties or towns in proportion to county or town revenue. ‘ "Resolved, That every county or town and every city be granted the right to regulate the assessment and taxation of property at its discretion. provided any increase or reduction of assess- ment must be uniform throughout such county. town or city. and not made on the ground of ownership. Three weeks after the adoption of these resolutions. the New York Cham- ber of Commerce unanimously approv- ed a bill fer the apportionment of state taxes, and for local option in taxation. presented by its committee on taxation. This bill follows precisely the plan out- lined by the league. and was endorsed by many associations of business men and trade unions. “Although the bill recommended by the chamber of commerce did not be- nlan of apportionment found favor in Oregon. and became a law in that state on February 27., last. ",The most notable action in harmony with .these resolutions has been taken by the Senate of Colorado. by an amendment to the Colorado constitu- tion. which provided in the constitution itself for local option in taxation. "The business men of Ohio have be- come aroused to the necessity of mak- ing great chant!“ in the tax system of that state: and the Ohio state board of commerce has entered into a cam- paign of education to secure the pan- sage. by the next Legislature. of-an amendment to the constitution. “Public sentiment in Great Britain is more aroused than it is here. and action may be taken there ahead of any state in this country. The councils of Glasgow, Liverpool, London and three hundred other municipalities have pe- titioned parliament for local option in taxation. and a few weeks ago the ur- ban district councils association of so petitioned parlia- merit for this reform."

SPIN ”av summon ii Challenger Gives Good Account of Hersei if. NEW YORK. August Bil—Shamrock ll had her first trial spin in New York lower bay. yesterday. and although it only lasted ninety minutes, it was a most satisfactory performance from start to finish. Sir Thomas Lipton and Designer George L. Watson. both of whom were on board the yacht during her trial. expressed themselves as per- fectly satisfied with the result. in sall- ing about eight miles dead to wind. ward. against a two-knot tide. she cov- ered the distance in fifty-seven minutes and the reach back of six miles ill for- ty minutes. The wind was fresh and fairly steady from about south by cast. and of from ten to twelve knots strength. The yacht carried mainsall. working topsoil. forestaysail and jib. At times. while on the. wind. she put her lee rail under a trifle. but she showed herself well able to carry her sail. and she appeared to be quite as stiff as either the Constitution or Col— umhia. Her sails set remarkably well for the first time out. The mainsall was set for the first time today. it fitted to perfection with the exception. perhaps. of a slight iooseness in the leach. The headsails set well. as did the jib beaded topsoil she carried. The trial was all in smooth water. ex- cent during the last mile of the wind- ward work. when she passed out by Conny island Point. There. a slight easterly swell made her pitch a little. but not enough to stop her headway to any extent. She makes very little fuss under her lee bow. and carries hardly any quartering wave. Her wake is clean and smooth. and from observa- tions taken from directly aster-n. while she was close hauled. her sails trim very flat. and she is able to lie within four points of the wind with every sail full. Many thought her "pointing’ a fully as close as that of the Her- vLshoff boats, but that remains to be seen. The yacht is so perfectly balanced “on the wind” that she carries neither lee nor weather helm. her long tiller being exactly amidsblps. During the eight or ten tacks she made to fetch. from her anchorage to the huuy.‘. at thalunctiqn of the swash and main ship channel. Where she turned back. the average time from “full to full" in stays was about seventeen seconds it was plain however. that Captain Sycm more. wasp best paces in that dl cation.

The change in the law regarding the licensing of itinerant vendors, which was made by the recent legislature. has pretty effectually shut out this class of (ioalcrs from the state, much to the satisfaction of regularly estab- lished merchants in almost every line. of trade. The change in the law rule- ed the license fee from $25 to $100, and a cash (leposit as security for faithful observance of the. law has been raised from $300 to Shut). The state ircasuror has not issued a single license under the new law which went into effect August 1, and there has been but one inquiry regard- ing the fee, etc. Apparently the infor- mation impartcl. squelchod the idea of trying to do business under such restrictions as are imposed, as nothing more was heard of the applicant. The lawyer‘s criticism is that this class of dealers who collie into town for a short time during the busy season and leave as soon as the season closes or business gets dull. thereby saving store rent and other expenses during the dull season which regularly estab- lished merchants have to bear There has always been much complaint on the pint of local merchants against itinerant vendors. and the present law is the outcome of their efforts to so- cure some protection from that class of dealers and it seems to come up to their expectations. 3. H... I 35‘“ POLICY HOLDERS' LEAGUE. Fifteen well-known business men of New Haven, all of them policy holders in the Hartford Life insurance Com- pany. have Just organized a Life in- surance Policy Holders' League, that is to include not only policy holders of the Hartford Life, but of all other life insurance companies. The objection to the Hartford Life Insprance Com; pauy'. as set forth by the organizers. is that the assessments of the policy , holders are unjust and unequal; that they do not have proper and full in- formation regarding the standing of the company. and that as individuals they have failed to receive that consid- eration to which they think they are entitled. The president of the League is George Kilborn. W 70 SAVE HER CHILD.
