If enacted Into a law. It will constitute a complete readjustment of France’s fiscal system. The old door, window, .poll and other direct 'taxes are to be replaced /by .a system based upon Incomes. ’ 'Day la borers are practically exempted. The tax upon Incomes above 31,000 a year . Is made progressive uj> to four per cent j of the toaal. Even Government rents, J excepting those held abroad., only nom inally escape, the coupons themselves being exempt but the revenue there from being taxed when the total In- i cobie of the bolder exceeds the mini mum laid down. French savings are largely Invested in rents. The burdens placed upon foreign securities, both private and governmental, constitute a particularly heavy blow to Russ’an se curities. of which It Is estimated that from 38.000,000 to $10,000,000 are held In France. This new Income tax measure Is one of the radical reforms to which the Clemeneeeu ministry committed Itself; upon assuimng office. Minister Caliaux ; estimates it will produce $24,000,000 a year.

With the sympathy-impelling story of the girl, the girlish fascination , of a voice of softest quality, yet ring ing clear in enunciation, the court room lost view of the prisoner. But when there came a halt in the girl’s fight against the tears, the people who had gazed unceasingly at her, lowered their eyes, as if the relief from their stare might bring her the composure she finally won.

Thus Thaw sat for many minutes, and when he finally lifted his head his eyes : were red and swollen. Even if they could have seen, the 'jurors would have had no eyes for the prisoner. They, too. had turned their gaze from the witness as the tears came to her voice ?s well 3s her eyes, and each man of tho twelve seemed intent upon some object on the floor beneath them.

Southern Cotton Association, issues an interestin'- statement, this week regard-, ing conditions in the cotton marltej. Pres ident Johnson says: . “Let me call the attention of Georgians to some quotations from the market pages of our daily papers, and let me beg of you to give them some thought. “In the first place, lev me recall the fact that I have insisted throughout the sea son that our best brade of cotton should bring not iess than 12% cents; it has heen and is now worth every cent of it. It Is worth it either from the standpoint of the growers, from that of supply and demand, from the price at which goods are selling, or from the profits which tho mills are milking. "Note the following from a recent issue of the New York Commercial: “ ‘The day of settlement between the mills and spot dealers has been postponed from month to month through the cour tesy of the mills, but there will be a day of settlement sometime.’ “Isn’t there evidence of agreement or combination there? Combination, too. which is not in the interest of the grow er? "You all know how daily attention has been called to heavy receipts with a view j to ‘bearing’ the market. One market writer puts It in this sensible and rea sonable way: ‘The cotton would not be moving had it not been sold, and there fore heavy receipts, at the ports is a bull ish feature frpm a consumptive point of view, as the cotton arriving at these ports is on the way to the mills, domestic and foreign, particularly the latter.’ "Is it not also evidence of the most rapid marketing of the crop arid that the stock of raw material in the interior is rapidly exhausting? And what will you say to this from another published itiar- ket report: - “ ‘The dry goods market was very strong today. Fruit of the Loom and other ticketed sheetings were advanced half a cent a yard today.’ “Does not that touch every consumer's nocket? Cotton declined 1-16 of a cent one day last week.
