UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES
VOLUME OX TAX PROBLEMS
Seattle, Aug.- 2S—-Under tho title
of "Taxation in Washington," the
proceedings of the state tax con
ference held at the University of
Washington iu May, are now issuing
from the university press. The pub
lication is a substantial volume of
over 300 pages, full of material of
value to the student of tax prob
lems—a class to which every citizen
does or should belong.
The conference was held at the
invitation of the tiniversity and con
ducted under the auspices of the ex
tension division. Thr*e of the lead
ing tax experts of 'he country as
sisted, and their contributions .will
be found in this volume. There wer®
present also nuuiy citizens of Wash
ington who have givwn much atten
tion to different phases ot the sub
ject. The common plan of publish
ing the stenographic report in full
hi>s been deviated from to the ex
tent of eliminating all unnecessary
matter and retaining only tile pa
pers and discussion actually bearing
upon the specific topics. This has
further benn arranged in related
groups, so that tho book is logical
;uid consistent.
Following the introductory state
ments of the editor and the pro
gram committee and the opening ad
dresses, the divisions of the sub
ject as presented in the volume are
is follows;
ii., Elements or me
■ II., Taxation of Natural Resources;
IV-, Private and Public Corpora
lons; V-, Taxation of Land Values;
VI., Methods of Tax Reform; VIII.,
Vdministration and Amendment.
With each paper or group of pi
'ers is the discussion relating to
hat subject, and this was partici
>ated in by a number of people,
nany of them experts in their ft olds
t will be seen from this synopsis
hat the volumte presents a some
what comprehensivo study of our
ax problems. Three proposed cou
titutional amendments are suggest
d, and the appendix contains the
meuduient put forth by the state
'oard of tax commissioners since
he conference was held.
The volumo has a table of con
ents and an index. It will be dis
ributed to the public libraries of
he 6tate and to delegates to the
onference, as well as to state fis
al officials. Others may obtain
opies for 50 cents from the ex
ension division. University of Wash-,

ector-G»u«rai in tie staging tf
photo-dramas lor that company. The
first work of Mr. Thomas was pro
ducing for the camera "Arizona,"
his own play, which has proved itseil
one of the most successful dramas

disposal tke whole out-ioorg for a
stage and an opportunity to show
in aclton many of the scenes which
the original Dlay wtis forced to leave
to the imagination. In the photo
play version there are six parts,
two hundred aid ten scenes and
mors than one hundred and fifty
people wore used. As principals
Mr. Thomas secured a most not
able cask which includes Cyril Scott,
Gall Kane, C. E. Davenport, Robt.
Broderlck, Lizzie McCall, Gertrude
Shipma« and others of such calibre.
This phot»-drama will be seen at.
the Popular Picture palace tomor
row night for one night only. Mrs.
Fiske in "Tess" Sunday night. These
great photo-plays for an engage
ment which is positively limited to
two nights.

A PROPHETIC VISION
' By H. J. AVeJtemau
Unities, Alaska
I see the form of a woman, float
ing upon the sea of human fate.
She carries aloft three torches of
universal corruption. One represent
ing war, one bigotry and hypocrisy,
and the third, law, all dangerous
foundations. I see the great con
flagration which started about 1913
in southeastern Europe, and I also
hear the lamentations of huge bat
tle fields. I also see Europe in
flames, and bleeding, mu In the
year of 1915, which will start Sep
tember 21st, 1914, according to
the Hebrew calendar, 1 6ce a change
as predicted in the prophesy of
Count Tolstoy, (See the American
Theosophist, May 1913). A strange
figure enters the stage of tUe bloody
drama, and this is our beloved
President of the United States,
Woodro^r Wilson, with his cabinet.
Though he is a man of little mili
tary training, he will hold most of
Europe in his grip until the above
mentioned three torches of univer
sal corruption will be repealed to
the satisfaction of the old and new
worlds; as a mission is assigned to
hii* by a Superior Power, to make a
new political era for the whole
world. No Empires and Kingdoms,
but the whole world will form a fed
eration of the United States of Na
tions.
Next Sunday, "A Way to the
Underworld'' being the 9th of the
series of "What Happened to Mary'
will be presented at the Nugget
Movies. 2t
