New lightning Express.

From he ". y, Post.
Probably the highest rate OF speed ever
attained in lOComOtiOn has been by ice
boats, scudding before the wind with a
cloud OrCanvass over u smooth expanse Of
ice. Upon Lake Winnebago, between
Fond du Lac and towns at the opposite
extremity, II Is said that speed Of seven.
ty.tive or eighty miles an hour has been
repeatedly witnessed, with an unObstruct.
ed surface and a high wind. The fastest
motion ever achieved by the locomotive
engine in England Is recorded in the books
as at the rate Of seventy-seven miles an
hour, and this only for short distance:
Ice boating Is Just now the prevailing
passion on tho Hudson river, above
Poughkeepsie. On Friday last race was
run between the IciCle and Zephyr, two
of the fastest boats Of the Poughkeepsie
Association, and the express train from
this city bound to Chicago. The train
was beaten In the contest, which was kept
up for several miles, and the scene Is de.
scribed as having been one Of the widest
excitement on the part of the bOatmen
and the railway men, the passengers on
the train participating to the fullest ex-
tent in the enthusiasm Of the moment.

Mr.. EDIToR:-It Is said that extreme

but we beg leave TO submit to the good
taste of the citizens OF the State of West

Of the upper branch OF the Legislature

ised great things TO the people OF the
State, tho failure to secure which would
inevitably involve consequences tho most

q good Democrat will not complain. But
II may DO said that tho vote was "by bal.

voted. That is true. We did not know
who Lewis Baker voted for, but We do
know that Lewis Baker got twelve votes,
and VIC know also of eight Senators who
did not vote Tor Lewis Baker. We know
also that there were only twenty Senators
in the house, and we know also that by
the simple rule Of subtraction take eight
from twenty leaves twelve, and one Of
those twelve was LEWIS BAKER. Two
Senators who happened to be absent
would not (had they been there have vo.
ted for Lewis Baker. Hence we agree
that not to have voted for LEWIS BAKER
would have involved riSk on the part of
the editor Of the State organ entirely in.
compatible with Democratic tactics.
Hence we defer to the superior wisdom Of
our leaders, An up the creek

WASHINGTON, jan. a. Is

w ASHlN0TON, jan "a, 1911.
Some Of the members Of the Ways and
Means Committee, who do not seem to be
in favor of the repeal ot the income tax,
invited General PlraS0nton to appear be-
fore them to-day, md explain the way he
proposed to supply tho deficiency in the
internal revenue receipts in the event that
Congress abolished the tax. In reply the
Commissioner stated that tho estimated
revenue from this source ut the rate oftwo
and hall per cent. was 81, 600, 900 a year.
He had made computation Of the cost Of
collecting 1t, the salaries Of Assessors and
other officers, the cost Of printing the in.
como blanks, the expense of advertising,
&c, and 1t amounted very nearly to the
estimated receipts. The Commissioner
did not decide the question, but little or
no doubt Is entertained that n bill will be
reported for the repeal Of tho tax. The
Secretary Of the Treasury has not thus far
been heard upon Il.
