The Measure Which Added Nearly $100,000,000 of Railroad and Corporation Property to the State Tax Rolls Would Uundoubtedly be Made Null and Void by the

Success of the Republican State Ticket.

OUR OWN COUNTY DEEPLY INTERESTED.

The Unholy Bargain Between the Railroads and the Indiana G. O. P. Goldltes to Place Additional Burdens of Taxation Upon the Farmers, the Merchants, and the Laborers.

The Democratic state legislatures of 1 SOI anl 1893, over tlio strenuous and nnited opposition of the Republican party and press, enacted tax laws creating the state board of tax commissioners and providing for the assessment and valuation for taxation of railroad property, sleopingcar companies, express companies and telegraph and telephone companies by which, for the first time in the history of the state, these corporations were compelled to pay their just proportion of taxes. Previous to tho enactment of these laws many of these corporations escaped taxation entirely, whilo tho others were assessed at a merely nominal figure—not more than one-third of their true value.

Under tluse laws the state board of tax commissioners is composed of tho governor, secretary of state, auditor of state and two tax commissioners appointed iy the governor.

The importance of securing an upright and just state board of tax commissioners cannot he overestimated by the taxpayers of the .state. The Republican state candidates, who, if elected would make up the board, have tho endorse.'.ieiit of-' all o! .he above named corporations and it is natural to suppose that if electco they will favor rile corporations which are friendly to them and i11l-i 1 hi1111tr so much toward their election, and will release these corporations from payment of their just proportion of taxes. It is plain that these heuelicial laws siioi.Id lie administered by the friends o.' rho people and the laws and not by their enemies.

The increase of assessment for taxation of these corporations alone, made bv Democratic state boards, under these laws, Democratic laws, amounts to more than .-?i."i,(iOo.(ion.

The following table shows the assessment of these corporations under the old law and the increased assessment- under the new tax laws of Jb'Jl and 1893 as made bv the state board of tax commissioners:

According to a celebrated anatomist there are upwards of 5,000,000 little glands in the human stomach. These glands pour out tho digestive juicos which dissolve or digest the food. Indigestion is want of juice, weakness of glands, need of help to restore the health of these organs. The best and most natural help is that, given by Shaker Digestive Cordial. Natural, because it.supplies the materials needed by the glands to prepare the digestive juices. Be cause it strengthens and invigorates the glands and the stomach until they are able to do their work alone. Shaker Digestive Cordial cures indigestion certainly ami permanently. I It does so by natural means and therein lies the secret af its wonderi'id und un varied success.
