Our sunreme coutt has recentlyhanded down a decision regarding themembers of loan nnd investment com-panies. The decision practically is thatno matter what sort of a contract hasbeen made to induce people to borrowmonev from a loan association, such concerns are mutual in their character andevery man borrowing is a stockholderand must nay until all obligations weresatisfied, notwithptandiog the fact hemay havenn agreement in writing thathe is to pay a stipulated sum for a cer-tain time and is not to share in nny pro-fits of the association.

Our law requires every merchant tofile a bond each year that he will paythe hceneejtax on his goods, and the wartax act requires all bonds to have a 0cent stamp. This is something to beremembered until next spring. Thereis no probability that this tax will berepealed this winter.
