dismal boats, painted black

Sometimes a man and q

fastened to each other, each
hating his mate, row along
resolutely; one is pulling a
stronger oar than the
other, and they make little

these go by, sailing out O

THE INCOME TAX.


Amendments.
WAsuINGToN, Jan. ga spirited con-
test over the income tax position is likely
to take place this week as a result Of tie
formal presentation of the complete in
ternal revenue bill. While this measure
was held in its committee its friends on
the floor of the house were pOwerless TO
push 1T as an amendment TO lie tariff
bill, but now that it is about to emerge
from the committee, steps viii be at once
taken to have it considered as an amend
ment to the W uson BILL
A caucus to bring about this result
may. or may not be held, but the income
tax men have prepared themselves for
either emergency AS yet no call for
caucus has been circulated. Should 4

making the tax bill a rider on the Wilson
bill. If however. the caucus is not called,
the income tax amendment viii be offer
ed 10y Representative Hall, Of Missouri,
who has been active In framing the
measure. Mr.. Hall hass been instru-
mental liza preventing amy arrangement
of special hours in such q way as would
shut out the income tax amendment dur
ing the present week. He has hoped TO
get two days for arguing the measure,
but il is doubtful III So much time VIII be
given when SO many other amendments
are pressing.
The report has been circulated that
Speaker Crisp would rule out the income
tax proposition as not germane amend
ment to the Wilson bill This report is
uufounded, however. 1Ir. Crisp is not
ia the c1air during the tariff debate. as
Mr.. Richardson of Tennessee IS serving
as chairman of the committee of the
whole. Yet Speaker lrisp quickly dis
posed of the report when called to his at
tention by pointing ont that the special
rule of the tariff debate made the income
tax amendment perfectly germane.

that army officers are better qualified to

The opponents of the plan declare that
the army officers are disposed to be arbi-
