have to pay this tax in an indirect way. More
humbug The poor people know better thsn this
and therefore not protesting against this tax
They know this is fair and Just tax and will tax
the people that can best afford to pay It. a

Notwithstanding, The newspapers and Senators
that are opposing this measure are simply work

that this tax will fall Let Congress pass this
Tarir bill with the income tax. and follow this
up by enacting such laws that will restrict immi-

The BEAR A WRECK.
United States Revenue Cutter on
the Rocks at Sitka.
Struck While Entering the Harbor
at Night on May 29.
No Lives Lost, but Naval Station
Supplies Are in Danger.

SAN FRH-cCIsCO, June T. - The
United States revenue cutter Bear is
almost a total wreck, and possibly by
this time is battered to pieces. A
despatch from one of the officers Of the
wcll-known vessel says she is fast on
the rocks at the entrance of the harbor
at Sitka.
The steamer was ploughing her
way into the harbor at good
speed on the night OF May 20
when she struck on rock and
all efforts to get her relief were unavail-
Ing. She went on at high water and
the officers state that they have very
little hope OF ever getting her OFF,
Her stern was the part to suffer most,
and the despatch says that her rud-
der, propeller and sternpost were gone,
and in sea the vessel must surely
break up, as 1t would be impossible for
her to stand any amount of pounding
on the Jagged points Of the rock on
which she rests.
The Bear left San Francisco about six
weeks ago to join the Behring Sea fleet
to protect the seals. In her hold she had
about 200 tons OF freight for the naval
supply stations at Point Clarence and
Point Barry. and II II Is lost the cutters
will necessarily be short OF supplies un-
less another vessel Is sent up with the
necessary cargo. No lives were reported
lost.
The Bear Is the largest cutter in the
service and was built by an English
company in Nova Scotia in 1882 for
use as steam whaler In the Arctic.
She was purchased by the United States
and was utilized as one OF the Greely
Treasury Department soon after the
return of that expedition. She Is 703
