Everyday garments. particularly those
which are not laundersd, should be dis

it does not remove the unpleasant odors
which come from long usage. Some woIn-

scent and use saehet powders to per-

would be admirable il it were awaiting.

The demand for business educr tion

into disuse. Railroads are soon TO be
built into every corner Of our territory

daily opening up, thus presenting ad-
vantages to all our young men and

WASHINGTON, Jan. l4-About twenty
members crowded into the area in
front of the speakers rostrum at the
opening of the session of the house
Saturday in the hope of getting bills of
local Importance through by uuani-
nous consent but all were unsuccess-
full. Hatch, chairman of the com
mittee on agriculture, called up a
bill to extend the provisions Of the
Wilson original package liquor law to
eleomargarinc in original packages,
So as TO allow states TO exercise their
police powers over oleomargarine,
butterine imitation butter or imita-
tiou cheese imported in original pack
ages as If they had been manufac-
tured in the states where they were
consumed. The bill precipitated a
discussion regarding the merits of
the oleomargarine act and its consti-
tutionality.
Mr.. Hatch attempted TO have the
extra hour, to which the bill would
be entitled under the rule when the
committee is again called, granted at
this time, but his request was re-
fused lie then tried TO have the
previous question ordered, but fill
clustering by Mr.. Bynum consumed
the time till the morning hour ex-
pired and the bill went over

A letter suggesting that the govern

sentcd TO President Dole and the
executive council on December 2l by
the American League. The petition
is a strong one and makes several
telling points. IL sets forth that
since the question Of the islands
was in congress before many
fresh facts have come To light
and many memb RS Of the senate and
house have changed their minds upon
the subject In every instance the
alteration of view has been from hos
tility to friendliness for Hawaii
Even the administration now has am-
pie and iustifiable grounds for treat
ing the matter differently and is now
in possession Of reliable data. In 1893
IL acted upon misapprehension. The
petition further states that the send
ing OF another commissioner Will
force the treatment of the isSue
strictly upon lit merits.

Tho Law in Force Even Without Col
lection rovision1
WASHINGTON, Jan. senator Cor
oon Of Georgia, in conversation with
senator's called attention TO certain
provisions Of the income tax which
compels taxpayers TO make re turns
and pay their taxes upon incomes
whether the pending appropriation
passes or not The defeat" he
said "of the appropriation will
not defeat the collection of
the income tax from the people.
Under section 20 of the law all per-
sons and corporations with incomes
bo,c S5, 500 are required to make re-
turns according TO the form prescribed
by the revenue department and the
cretary of the treasury. This is the
plain duty of citizens and the mere
failure of congress to appropriate
money for the more effective collec-
tion of the income tax cannot, of
course, defeat the operation of the
law, nor the attaching of heavy
penalty provided for on failure to
make such returns The only possi-
bic way for the opponents Of the in
come tax to save the people from
paying this tax is to repeal the
law itself The mere withholding
of the appropriation asked will
have no effect whatever, except, per-
haps to deceive the uniformed and
beguile them into a feeling of securi-
ty and to neglect compliance with
the plain requirements of the law
itself Those who hope to escape the
payment Of the income tax through
the failure of congress TO make the
appropriation asked for, and who
are thus lei TO neglect making
their returns at the time fixed
by law. win find themselves in
volved in fifty per cent heavier
taxes and will be compelled TO
pay them. Failure by congress to
appropriate money to collect the in
come tax will not prevent such col
lection and it is wrong 10 the people
TO mislead them in this matter"
