Company Objects to the Assessment Made.
A SUIT IS NOW PENDING
Some time this month the Western Union Telegraph company will pay into the treasury of Wayne county, tm3er protest, the sum of $692.27 as tax on the valuation for 1906 of its properties in this county. In all the other counties in the state the tax will be aid into the respective' county treasuries under protest. " " Subject of" a Suit; Valuation of the company's properties in this state is the' subject of a suit now pending in the -United States
Circuit Court The suit was filed in
Indianapolia.last August by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company against Governor Ilarily,'- Fred A. : Sims, John
C. Wingate and Parks. iMartin as members of the -State Board of Tax Comm issioners of Indiana,' and 'against
Warren 'IJigler. as! Auditor' of State
It was related that ;thre.' State Board of Tax : Commissioners- had 1 placed ' a valuation,",, for .txsatton, on the Indiana properties-of the telegraph com
pany, fof $3,337,323, amounting-to -69
for each nile.of wire, that the com;
pany operated, in-, the .State. It , was related that the complainant company
was willing to pay on a valuation o
$1,547,421,' or about .$32 , a mile. This
made a difference of t$37 a: mile between the-valuation,-as : made by the board, and. the valuation, as made by
the complainant company, " and the
complainant asked that -the board be enjoined from certifying, to the State Auditor this additional valuation of $37 a mile, and that Mr. Bigler and his successors be enjoined from certify
ing to the various county auditors this
additional valuation. In Excess of Value.'
It was related that the valuation
and assessment was far in excess of
'the actual Cash value of "the Indiana
properties , of the complainant, and
was ou.t of proportion to the assess
' ment of properties owned by other persons in the State. It further was related that this was in violation of
the State constitution and the const!
tution of the United States. Hearing
on the plea for a preliminary injunc
tion, was had before Judge Francis Maker, who" refused to grant the pre
liminary injunction. "
The amount of taxes- that the com
pany, will pay, thisk month,-under pro
test, into the county treasuries will
be- about $61,000. ,The payment, of
this tax will in no way affect'the liti

RIGHTS OF OSTEOPATHS ARE NOW IN QUESTION
New York, March 9. The state medical society now has before it a question thaf is intensely Important to r.00.000 persons at least in the
state. It 'is whether osteopathy can be. prohibited in Xew York. .The. society, -through its attorney, Champe Andrews, has 'obtained a decision from the appellate division of the supremo court as, to' what constitutes the practice of, medicine,. tin that decision from the 'case . then . before the court , the ruling -was, v that .whoever "diagnoses" , anJ ', "treats''-'disease by a ny mea ns whatever is practicing medicine within the r meaning of the present statute." ',.".'". This decision .was handed . down sustaining "the conviction of ' a man who." the osteopaths claimv was not a legitimate- practitioner. As- to whether ' the court would change its ruling if a legitimate practitioner of osteopathy ''were befof e it Is now the question "before 'the "people of the State of New York. The medical society evidently. thinks, the... court would hold to the same ruling if an osteopath! we"ra "brought; before it. This the osteopaths refuse to believe.

When the maintenance of way novice reaches Altoona he is put to work in the yards. These yards are seven miles long and contain about 210 miles of tracks. The novice, who may be made dizzy by the maze of tracks at first, learns the intricacies of shifting, how to keep car records, to manipulate signals, to classify cars, and to do many another thing which he has to know all about before he can rise. Altoona yards are ieft for the road. The graduate has now . become an assistant supervisor and is assigned to some stretch of the line. He watches steel rails and learns to tell when they are as they should be. Crossties, ballast, tie-plates, nuts, bolts, ditches for drainage all these have to be known thoroughly. Then, perhaps, the assistant becomes a full-fledged supervisor; after that come the grades of assistant engineer and superintendent. When the college man gets to be a superintendent he has
qualified as a railroad expert. Special Apprentices Four-Year Course.
For the college man trained as" me
chanical engineer there is . a special course at Altoona. He becomes a
"special apprentice," as distinguished from the regular apprentices who
have had no training. The "special
apprentice" is put through a four
years' course the like of whieh is not to be found anywhere else. He goes
through the shops- boiler, " black'

rest. Part of the time is spent in the
