The revenue bill reported to the house during th 64th congress was a very crude piece of financial legislation. Among its other awkward and unjust provislons was one placing: a double tax on banks, trust compyanies and buildinK end loan associations. While the bill was under consideration in the house Mr. Wood called attention to this double taxation feature and proposed an amendment.

The Next Wheat and Rye Crop By V. A. PLACE, C. AGENT.

ISpkohi, To Thk Timks. CROWN POINT. IND, Aug. 2. From the State Council or De'ense request comes to this office that the acreage of wheat and rye in Lake county should be at least maintained or increased If possible for next year. Reports from parts of the county where threshing is being dons show that most fields are yielding exceptionally good. This is perhaps quite largely due to the very favorable winter and spring. If this year's tleld is to be equaled prrhnps i would be safe to heed a greater acreage to these crops. Many oats' fields and rot a few run out timothy meadows if plowed at once could profitably be put to wheat or rye this fall. Importance cf Phoephata. Lake county soils are decidedly lackStates in the war Mr. Wood has not ma le any political speech .-) in the bouse, but has spoken on matters con-ne.-ted with the conduct of the war. He was ihe first to expose th-- iniquities Of the "total cosl plus 10 i-.- cent contract" system that had found such favor with the present administration. Many other speeches on the same subject were made in the hous and senate that brought forth the investigation which finally resulted In 'ausir.g the administration to abandon this system, and freeing the country from an immense amount of graft in then existing contracts. He also j--t.i ke against the system in vogue in Washington by hotels, boarding and rooming houses, and also against th banks that were trying to give tone lu their system of profiteering by charging government employees who had come here to do war work, a fee of fifty cents a month for taking care of their accounts. Sinca the exposure of Mr. Wood this system has been discontinued. Mr. Wood voted for 'he declaration cf war and for every measure that has passed congress, since the war began, and was one of those who hd the fight to increase the pay of soh'.ers to thirty dollars a month. He has. takm an active part in the debate on the more important matters coming before congress, but has not offended good taste by much speaking. A few weeks ago he. secured an ajlotment of $r00,00a of the appropriation for government housing, with which to erect houses at Hammond. He has remained ir. the city during the present vacation of congress looking after the interests of his constituents. The northern part of his district being so largely occupied or engaged in war activities that the calls on him have been many each day. for his personal attention in the various departments. He does not entrust these matters to a deputy but attends personally to them, having discovered that :t is only by personal attention results can be obtained.
