THE TAX LEVY.
Board of Aldermen Complete Work of Se-1
lectlng Objects of Special Taxation.
It is probably a fact that noth
ing has been published in Salis
bury for a long time, which has
occasioned so much comment, as
the publication of the list of oc
cupations and business concerns
which are to be made subject to
municipal taxation. The com
ment was vigorous and varied, not
unmixed with kicks of numerous
kinds . It was expected that there
would be considerable kicking,
for the aldermen di 1 not imagine
that a schedule of this sort could
be adopted which would please all
citizens. About three-fourths of
this schedule has been law for years
and some of the most vigorous
kicking is being done by parties
who will not have 1 cent of the
taxes to pay. The list is given

The Tax Fixed.
At a recent setsion of the board
of aldermen the tax on near beer
dealers was fixed at $300. There
was a strong sentiment for a $1C0
tax, four of the city fathers favor
mg this amount and four standing
out for the larger sum. Mayor
Smoot decided the matter by vot
ing for the $300 tax . It has been
said there is not a large profit in
the near beer business anyway,
unless it has other features con-

With rest disturbed at night,
Annoying urinary disorders,

Doan's Kidney Pills drive weariness

J. M. Trexler, retired. 512 N. Long
St., Salisbury, N. O., says: I have no
hesitation in recomendirig Doan's Kid
ney Pills, as I consider them to be a
reliable remedy. I suffered a preat
deal from backache and I had lull
miserable headaches. The. kidney se
cretions passed very irregularly and
plainly showed by their unnatural ap
pearance that my kidneys were out of
order. When Doan's Kidney Pills were
brought to my attention, I procured a
box at Mcpherson & Co's drug store
and after using them, felt better in
every way. My kidneys are now in a
healthy condition and the pains in my
back are a thing of the past,
