have been hopping MP the ground-or,
more properly, the water-with an Amer

The vigilant went across the Atlantic 70

This time, however, the other fellows get
the laurels. For the first time in an in
ternational yachting contest the repre-
sentative American boat has been sqnaresy
beaten. The vigilans has done good sail
ing. but the British yachts have done bet
ter. and ell of the three races thus far
sailed have been lost by the American.
The races which have taken place have
been in tho firth of Clyde. II Is TO be
hoped that the vigiiant will do better in
the races of the Royal Cork Yacht CLUB on
July q and "a. which will be sailed on
open waters.

The government is being helped to addi-
tional revenue at the right time By the adj
vance OF the internal tax on whisky from
90 cents to sIi0 9 gallon by the senate
tariff bill. This new tax is to apply to all
whisky IN bond at the time Of the bills
taking effect, and consequently the distii-
Iers are Withdrawing the liquor stored IN
the government warehouses IS fast as
possible to avoid the payment Of the pro-
posed extra tax of 20 cents gallon. Much
Of the whisky will be held By the distillers
and sold after the imposition of the extra
tax At q price advanced accordingly. Thus
the distillers will be able 70 make large
profits because of the tax. while the gov
ernment's revenue Is temporarily In
creased at the expense of future revenue
from this source.
