The Income Tax Measures Incrcas-
ing Popularity.

BUREAU or THE SENTINEL.
WASHINGTON, L. c.. Feb. g.
The income tax measure is growing
more popular every day. The New
York members voted against il and to
their surprise they are receiving hun
dreds Of letters every day from farmers
and workingmen disappearing of the op-
position TO the income tax.
Several New York members say If they
had an opportunity TO vote on this ques-
ton again they would vote
in it's favor. It is almost
certain that four New York mem
bers will be retired at the next election
on account of their opposition to this
most righteous measure.
The anti-income-taxers still keep up a
kind of whistling through graveyard
courage and declare that the senate COM
mittee will report against u personal in
come tax, but amend the bill so as to
apply To corporations only. They even
go so far as to count Senator Voorhees,
against u personal income tax. This is
absurd. as the senator will vote for an
income tax and will see. too, that his
committee reports that measure with the
Wilson bill. The fact is that the in
come tax as "A separate bill would get
more votes than the Wilson bill. 1t
would pass the senate by twenty MAORI
ty. while the income tax as a part of
the Wilson bill. will add strength to the
latter. This would secure the votes Of

whole bill and possibly three silver SEN

some of tho Kickers.
With an income tax clause the Wilson
bill can pass the senate without the
votes Of Hill. Murphy. Brice and the
two Louisiana senators.
The last three senators are considered
doubtful Louisiana wants bounty on
sugar, Brice wants tariff on coal, Muir
ply wants a tariff on collars and cuffs.
Hill-no one knows how he stands on the
tariff. He has been Il sort of tariff for
revenue with incidental protection dem
ocrat, but he viii vote for the Wilson
bill, income tax and all. Hill is still a
prominent candidate for the presidential
nomination and he knows that he could
not get ten delegates west Of Pennsylva-
MIA should he vote against the Wilson
bill, especially if the income tax amend
ment was made part OF the bill.
If the senate amends the bill 1t must
go back to the house. There are two
amendments the house will never concur

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY.
Mrs. Witherby Keeps an Expense Account
with Varying Results.

= am sure" said young Mrs. Witherby,
who had been reading The Young
Housekeeper's Guide to Happiness, g
that the real secret of household econo-
my is in keeping an account book"
Young Mr.. Witherby did not agree very
cordially. He implied that little COM
mon sense in buying articles would be
equally valuable as means of saving,
but his wife decided to open an expense
account Notwithstanding. The book
was beauty. 1t cost 50. 1t had a
flexible red leather cover and gilt edges
= Expense" was stamped in old English
letters on the cover. Mrs. Witherby sur
veyed it with pride as it lay on her desk.
Then it occurred to her that the red
leather of the cover did not harmonic

the other furnishings.
How lovely it would be-" said young
Mrs. Witherby, "to have mahogany

white desk. I think-I think Phi

bright and pretty. And I'll soon save

small sum of money and long period

to the other guest chamber. She spent
a much larger sum of money, although
a smaller time in buying red leather

ALTON ON THE LOCOMOTIVE.
He Was Only Mountain Lion, But No
body Disturbed Him.


Last winter when the snow storms
were SO fearful throughout the noun
talns of Utah and the earth was covered
with snow to the depth of i've to ten
feet and remained hidden SO long the
wild ami mails were forced to despera ton.
The wolves were starved and weak, and
what is known AS the mountain lion
almost persisted from starvation. Its
great strength failed it, and man with
knife could soon take the life of an
animal that short time before could
hold a powerful OK or horse and make a
meal off his flesh.
The hungry ANIMALS after while dis
covered that food was to be had along
the railroad track, where passengers
threw bones and scraps of victuals from
passing trains. Often two starving
coyotes would engage in deadly com bat
over chicken bone that had a short
time before been ridden of it's last
vestige of nourishment by some eco
nolnical person who did not care to pay
IS cents for meal. This was the condi-
ton of things.
Engineer CAST had charge of engine
No.151. which was known as the help
Ell" from the fact that il helped trains
up the mountain and when at the sum-
nit cut off and dropped back down to
the bottom. ready to help another. One
night when business on the road was
slack Cast noticed Something wrong
with the gearing under the tender, and
remarked to the fireman that they would
get off and repair it. When half way
down the mountain eide he brought the
engine to a standstill and the two men
went to work at what proved to be a
twenty minutes job packing hot box
on the tender. The tallow pot was left
at the boilers head.
After completing the repairs the men
were mounting the engine again, only
to see huge mountain lion devouring
the tallow and holding full possession
of the engine cab.
1t was cold night and the snow drift
ing. The men had already remained out
side until they were very cold, and the
chances of dispossessing Mr.. Lion were
very meagre, as he snapped his teeth and
flashed hisseyes and fast stored the tai
low out of sight. The only consolation
the men had was that the Gallow would
not last long at that rate, and even this
thought was not entirely satisfying, as
they had no way of determining that
one OF them would not go the same way
at the conclusion of the tallow feast.
Finally. after fifteen minutes further
delay the tailow pot was empty, and

"A Waterville Democrat in letter pub.
lished in the Bangor News, takes the
ground that the Democratic rout in
Maine was entirely due to the bad dis
tribution of the offices. "The rank and
file of the Democracy" he says, "haye
been slaves to horde of petty tyrants,
and the time is ripe to cut loose from the
influence that keeps true Democracy in
such an unnecessary bondage" This may
be true, but it is nevertheless fact that
when an uprising was attempted against
the petty tyrants it utterly and inglori-
ously failed. The record of the Demo-
cratic convention will confirm this. An
attempt was made then to GUST one of
the "petty tyrants." hut the slaves did
not rally with any enthusiasm. Indeed
the proceedings of that convention indi-
Gated that the slaves rather liked their

The Australian ballot law disfran-
chises people in practically the same way
that the educational amendment does.
If men won't take the trouble to learn
to read and write they can't vote; if
men won't take the trouble to study the
ballot law requirements they can't vote
effectively. In neither case is disfran-
chisement the work of the law, but of
neglect to comply with the law.
