used for canning purposes touches

Instead of exporting millions of dollars

some political significance. He poses as
"A statesman because he has given life

They WIN Not Make n Demand for an
Increase of Wages Until Times Grow
1S~tter.
MAroN. Mo. Oct. 6.-The 700 coal
miners at Ardmore have decided not
to make any demand for an increase
in wages this winter until the fnan-
cial situation gets better. The finan-
cial depression of the country has
caused the demand for coal TO be
light. The Ardmorc miners have not
been receiving steady work al fifty
cents, aud what they want now is
steady work ut fifty cents. but the small
demand for coal will probably not
justify regular work even NJ that
amount Mt present. Last summer the
Ardmorc miners went out in sympathy
with the Kansas strikers. but the
Bevicr miners refuse to join them. and
the former % went back 10 work.
Ardmore miners are now apparently
retaliating by refusing to join the
i'evicr men in their demands. AT
Bcvicr the 1000 miners are just as firm
In their demands rs the operators are
in refusing to pay the Increase.

Wells Recommendation.

The report Of Mr.. David A. Wells to
Secretary Carlisle on the ACCESSIBILITY
of making changes in the internal rev.
enue taxes on distilled spirits. malt
liquors and tobacco is of great interest
The conclusions of his investigation
are that any change in the present tax
on distilled liquors are inadvisabla, but
that the taxes on malt liquors and to-
bacco are now ''bclow the safe line of
expcdiency" and may be increased with
advantage. He thinks that the GUS
toms duties on these three articles arc
absurdly high as compared with the
internal revenue taxation. lie sug-
gests changes which he estimates would
result in increasing the revenue sup
piled by these three sources from $751;
900. 600 to s2f5. 10000. II is apparent
