CONGRESSIONAL.



WASHINGTON, June 27.-At 1915 the tax
bill came up as nnfnishea business, and
Mr. Sherman, Chairman of the. Finance
Committee, stated SIS the result OF consul
tation in regard to the bill, that they. had
agreed to let all inf o ne taxes 60, es sui
stitute to retain tax on sugar as it nov is
and also th tax o. gross rec c3ipts Hesaid
the House proposition for classification of
tax on sugars had been objected TO by bus-
mess men throughout the country, and the
Senate committees classification had en-
eountered equally strong opposition. The
remaining sections of the bill would elear
up antiquities in reference to special tax
on dividends of corporations, such as in
surance companies, and relative to Shakers
and other religious societies - svtf
Income-Tax ON Salaries. ~
The Income tax section was stricken out
without division. -, . u
Mr.. Sherman offered a new section to
continue the'tax on corporations and sala-
ries during this year. The amendment
was agreed to, and various others, submit
ted by Mr.. Sherman, to carry out the re-
Communications Of the Finance Committee.
The amendment to authorize the consol-
idat,on Of Collection Districts was agreed
to- 49, A. -t--ev~f -
,,- The Tariff. ,r,a o.
The tariff sections having been reached,
the amendment striking out, the duty of
i've cents on chicory, succorry, dande lion,
root and acorn coffee, raw or ground, or
burned or prepared, and all substitutes for
coffee, was agreed to. --fr.
Mr.. Sherman endeavored' to withdraw
the amendments reducing the duties on
sugar according to the Senate Committee
classification, so as to allow the rates to
remain as under the existing laws.
Mr.. Hamilton objected to the withdrawal
of the section, and asked to have vote on
it.
After the discussion Mr.. Sherman's mo-
ton to strike out the reduction tax on
sugars was rejected by 3S to 30.
Fowler voted nay; Brownlows name
does not appear. -a ,sr
The Senate Committees classification
therefore remains.
Mr.. Yates moved an amendment, pro-
hibiting all taxes on tea, coffee and sugar.
Mr.. Sherman remarked that the amend
ment would strike off $50, 900, 600 of rev.
enue, and if adopted the whole bill should
fail. & lE
Mr.. Yates advocated his amendment at
length. -s F-. .,,r-rsss-- r.

The War.-Whence Is il!

IT Is said it was necessary for Ma
poleoT to get up foreign war to pre-
vent the same ut home. In the latter
event, he would undoubtedly have
lost his imperial head. TO prevent
the dethronement of dissipated
monarch, hundreds Of thousands oi
innocent subjects must be sacrificed
There are families who are always
quarreling amnrg themselves, unless
i'm q strife with their Reighbors. The
same is true of some nations. II IL
be true that this great monarch Ii as
the power TO bring OH such a strife
as seems inevitable, simply to save
his own Eead, may We not hope that
the war may place Republics where
MOnarchies now exist. Napoleon s
defeat will very likely lead to the es
Enlistment of Republic in France,
and this may lead to the establish
ment of others. 1T the war was
brought Oh to save Napeleon's bead,
and results, as ii should. i'm the de
struction of his mona: chial, and rr
what we care, his physical head also,
W. say let the war come.

War i'm Europe.

All have undoubtedly heard Of The
declaration Of war between the two
great powers France and Prussia
Ft bids fair to be q great, if not the
greatest war of which we have rec
ord.
No battles have. been fought, but
both the Prussian and French ar
mics are moving. The latter has
crossed the border, and captured the
custom house.
Bismarck's announcement Of wal
with France. was wildly cheered.
The German army is said to be
quiet, grave and resolute. The
French are yelling, drinking and
swaggering, and spelling for fight
Germany demands the dethrone-
msnt Of Bonaparte.
There is great commercial dcpres
sion in England and many parts Of
Europe.
No other powers are yet involved,
hut there is strong probability that
others will take hand.
The excuse for war given by the
French Emperor is undoubtedly a
mere pretext. His Imperial head
was in great danger from dissensions
at home, aud he hopes 70 save it 10y
making enemies abroad. We hope
his downfall is decreed and that ovel
him French Republic may speedily
rise.
France will have an army Of 1850,
900 as her war strength. Prussis

been voted by Austin for the build-
ing of this road. As things are now
running, the companies and all
interested are working at great dis

Two Styles of Horse Powers

NINE-TENTRS of all the Threshing

Arrangement Of the Endless Apron" or Canva"

general form and somewhat similar appearance,
are made in nearly a hundred different factories,
large and small. Yet machines from these differ
ent factories differ murd in reHt qualities as do
different makes Of tgdgoRs cloth, leather, cutlery
watches engines. Hence the Importance of care
on the part Of the farmer and the thresherman in
making their selections. Some are practically
cheaper at n thousand than others at three hun
dred dollars, yet thore is not more than hundred
dollars difference between the prices of the best
and thepoorea.

bestowed upon threshing machines.
1t is more widely known and esteem

:. The great reputation achieved by this
flvorite machine has led several unsCrupulous
manufacturers, and numerous agents, to attach
the name "SwEEPsTAKEs," in one way and

mislead and deceive.
To avoid deception, look for the card
