OCCUPATION TAX NOT
A POLITICAL DEVICE
Coaarllman Kinsman Explains the
Proposition to the Southwest
Improvement t'lab.
"It Is charged that the occupation tax Is
a political device. I deny It absolutely,"
said Harry B. Zlmman at a meeting of the
Southwest Improvement club last evening.
"The ordinance was drawn by a demo
cratic city attorney and Introduced In the
council by a committee Including two dem
ocrats and one republican. It is charged
that I favor the occupation tax because I
am a candidate for office. At a recent
meeting of the city council I said, 'Pass
the ordinance and I will withdraw from
the race.' Is not that enough proof that I
did not propose it for personal reasons."
During his elucidation of the occupation
tax proposition Zlmman waa frequently In
terrupted by F. W. Fitch, who first chal
lenged the speaker's right to refer to a
decision of the supreme court on the tax
as Involving a political question, and a few
minutes later himself argued that the su
preme court had not held such a tax
valid.
Mr. Fitch occupied a peculiar position
throughout the evening. He decried in one
breath discussing any "political question"
before the club and tha next minute ar
gued against the tax and also against dis
cussion by cltlsens In general of tha occu
pation tax proposition. His concluding
feat was a personal attack upon Zlmman,
who had not attacked him or Indulged In
any personal references of any kind. Ques
tions which he fired In rapid succession at
the councilman were all answered by the
latter, and the attempt to make capital
thus wss abandoned.
Before. Zlmman was asked to sneak to
the mVmbers of the club that body for
mally rescinded its action at a . recent
meeting with regard to the occupation tax,
not caring to commit Itself as an Improve
ment club to either side of the proposition.
vice rresiaent maione, wno presided, ex
pressed himself upon the point by saying
that "aa Individuals all the members of
the club favor an ocoupatlon tax." To this
Fitch alone registered an objection.
Mr. Zlmmai In his address discussed the
question with regard to alt the companies
which would be affected, dwelling first
upon the street railway company and after
that th gas, electric lighting and Bell tele
phone corporations. With regard to the
occupation tax In general, he said:
"An occupation tax Is a tax to replace
the franchise taxes which the city of Om
aha neglected to secure when It granted
the franchises, twenty, thirty and forty
years ago without any restrictions. Is it
unjust to ask a corporation like the street
railway company, which claims a value
of ,0O0,O0O and a perpetual franchise, to
pay I per cent of Its gross receipts? Look
t what they are doing In other cities."
The speaker then showed at length what
Baltimore, Chicago, the District of Colum
bla and a score of other communities are
doing with respect to making public eerv
Ice corporations contribute to (he city treas
ury.
A discussion of the validity of the tax
followed and the supreme court's stand
witn rererenc to the Lincoln Western
Union case was quoted. Fitch had ob
jected to this, but later raised the point
himself by one of his questions and gave
Zlmman an opportunity to reply.

bates from the Chicago A Alton railway

bringing about the indictment of the
Standard Oil company In the case, read of
the action of the Chicago Jury with Inter
est, but refused to make any comment on
the verdict.
When Informed that the people of Mom
basa and British East Africa were pre
paring to welcome him, not as the former
president of the United States, but as a
noted hunter and sportsman, Mr. Roose
velt expressed much pleasure.
"I am glad to hear that," said he. "as
wish to travel as a private citizen. It Is
with the keenest anticipation that I look
forward to my trip to Africa, which I am
ure will be interesting. My companions
all are most enthusiastic and splendid nat
uralists.
I shall be busy during the remainder
of the time T remain at Oyster Bay pack
ing up and preparing for the trip."

PARRY TELLS HOW 'FRISCO
FIRE SINGED EAGLES WINGS
Also How They, with City, Soared
High on Inspiration of Bnch
Aid as Omaha Gave.
Not all of the earthquake story will
have come out of San Franclco, even when
people have finished talking about it,", said
John S. Parry, the big 'Frisco Eagle. In
conversation with some friends In Omaha.
And let me aay that your city here In the
mldcontinent garden of plenty was the
quickest to respond to our call for sld and
the most effectively organized In the short
est time, of any that our stricken com
munity dealt with. I can speak knowingly
on that subject, because as neart of the
Board of Fire Commissioners and presiding
officer of the Joint Board of Fire and Po
lice Commissioners, It fell to my lot to
carry aomethlng of the burden of the very
extensive relief work. Being also at the
head of Snn Francisco Eagle aerie No. 5.
the largest In the order, witli over 5.000
members, did not. lessen my work.
'It is my belief now. as It was then.
that the quickness and warmth of the
response of our countrymen, and the world
for that matter, kept ua from weakening
when we did not know whether we were
to live ten seconds or ten minutes."
Mr. Parry lost everything almost In the
earthquake and subsequent fire. He had
a wholesale Ice cream factory and five
retail cigar stores swept away, a well as
his home. The fire chief was among the
first killed, and then Parry and the other
board members had to "go to bat fast
as he puis It, and stick, without sleep or
rest, for many a weary hour.
Talking of the destruction of thousands
of dollars worth of Eagle property, Mr,
Parry said:
"We were wiped out In a Jiffy, except
aa to money deposited, and that was not
available; but our Eagle brothers every
where, and the grand lodge, within an
hour almost, sprang to our aid with liberal
contrlbutiona ot funds. A small aerie In
Honolulu, with 1500 in the treasury, tele
graphed that M0 and told us to draw for
KMO more if needed. So the story goes for
the series throughout the order. So,' In
commemoration of th most admirable
spirit exhibited at that time, we are plan
nlng to erect In Ban Francisco a SOTKOftg
building that will be devoted exclusively
for all time to Eagle use. It will be a
grand structure, and It will be a monu
ment, which we expect to stand forth to
the world as a testimony largely of the
historic time when everything waa lost
but the undying spirit of brotherhood."
Come to Turtle .ake," wrote Minnie
Peterson, "and I'll marry you as soon as
you get here."
"Can't get away," answered John Seefus;
"you come here to Gaiesburg."
Will meet you half way," Miss Peterson
telegraphed back, and she Journeyed here
from her home In Wisconsin and Seefus
came from the Kansas town. They were
married by County Judge Leslie Thursday
noon.

Testimony.
General John C. Cowln Is rapidly quali
fying to become a professional reader. Ife
has been busily engaged since Tuesday
morning In reading aloud the whole of the
testimony in the suit of Mrs. Julia Pratt
for divorce in Judge Estclle's court. He
began to read Mrs. Pratt's testimony only.
but It was later agreed that he should go
over the whole of the transcript. In which
there are only 780 typewritten pages. He
Is nearly through now, however.
I'nconsclous In his room, with two gas
Jets turned on full, Fred F. Perkins, a ma
chinist, 24 years of age, waa found almost
dead at 6 o'clock Thursday morning by per
sons at 523 North Fifteenth street, where
he lived.
After several hours' work Dr. Newell, who
attended him, said that young Perkins prob
ably would live, although his condition Is
still serious.
It Is said he went home at 1 o'clock
Thursday morning. He had told several
people that he Was going to kill himself,
but on account of his condition and his
apparently' robust health and lack of
trouble the Idea was discounted.
However, occupants of the house smelled
gas quite strongly early In the morning
and upon Investigating discovered Perkins"
prostrate form on the bed In his room. It
Is evident that he Intentionally turned on
the gas.
Letters to his mother in Salt Lake C1ly
and father in Idaho were found In the
room. They state that the writer waa tired
of living and Intended to commit suicide.
Other relatives of the young man are not
known.
; Ho was out of work, but had been em
ployed by the Larsen Ice Machine company
until recently.
It Is thought that the liquor habit and
lack of work caused Perkins to attempt to
take his life.
