Mr. Black was appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States, there was a great outery from many quarters because it was held that he had at one time been a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Even theâ€"bitter enemies of the K.K.K., however, are likely td praise the first deâ€" cision in a case handed down a day or two ago by Hon. Justice Black. The decision was to the effect that two bookâ€"selling corporations were using imâ€" proper and illegal methods in the sale of encycloâ€" pedias. Their salesmen had the practice of perâ€" suading their victims that ‘the encyclopedias were being given free on account of the prominence and influence of the men so honoured.

There were many cases in which it appeared to be a decided hardship. It seemed that young ladies on salaries little above the amount covered by the exemption clause had to contribute, while young men under similar conditions escaped. It is true that the collection of poll tax from girls has not been taken up, but it is doubtful if its emphasis would prove worth while. With coal chutes, signs, fire escapes, marked for tax imposts, there is doubt as to whether any class or object is allowed to escape. It would be refreshing if someone, inâ€" stead of seeking some new channel for tax collecâ€" tion would suggest some new way by which so many taxes and so much taxes would not need to be collected.
