JONES FAyORs A TAX on BEER.
Believes that General Revision OF the
Tariff Would Not Be Necessary.

WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. Senator Jas.
X. Jones. OF Arkansas, the chairman
Of the Democratic National Committee,
has returned to the city for the Con-
oressionaI session. In his talk, the
senator expressed that it was not at all
likely the Dingley revenue bill passed
by the House at the last session, would
be favorably acted on in the Senate
He fayors tax on beer in place Of any
general tariff revision, and says that
by making this additional tax 81 per
barrel. about $50, 600, 900 revenue would
be derived. Sugar, the Senator re-
CARDS as a necessity Of life, and further
taxation of it would work against the
interests of the people. The same Is
true OF other articles Of consumption,
Of which q great deal ID used by the
i poor. The Senator declares himself In
favor OF an income tax, so the rich

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.--Governor-elcct
Robert L. Taylor, Of Tennessee. 10 a

DIR. Talmage to Young Men.

'sMy young friends, there is no way
TO genuine success except through toll,
either of head or hand. At the battle
of Crecy, in 1916, the Prince OF Wales,
finding himself heavily pressed by the
enemy, sent word TO his father for help.
The father, watching the battle from
a Windmill, and seeing his son was not
wounded and could gain the day If he
would, sent word, No, will not come.
Let the boy win his spurs, for, il God
will, desire that this day be his with
all its honors.' Young man, fight your
own battle, all through, all through, and
you shall have the victory. Oh, it IL q
battle worth fighting! Two monarchs
Of old fought a duel, Charles v. and
Francis, and the stakes were kingdoms
Milan and Burgundy. You fight witt
sin, and the stake is heaven or hell.
do not get fatal idea that you are |
genions, and that, therefore, there i
no need Of close application. 1t is herr
where multitudes fail. The curse o
the age is the genius; men with enor

Not Radically Partisan.

THE NEWS expresses the hope that
Governor Steunenberg, when ne comes
into power, will not be the radical par
tisan that Governor Mcconnell has
been. He is the Governor-elect OF the
State and not of one party. He must
work for the best interests OF all the
people of the State and not for the vo-
ters Of the party TO which he belongs.
Governor Mcconnell adopted ex-
tremely radical measures and methods
when he went into power, and by so
doing he neither fortified himself in
the esteem and affection of his party
followers, nor did he materially benefit
the State and its institutions which ne
was aiming to serve.
II is still fresh in the minds OF the
people that Governor Mcconnell ru.
moved all Democrats from the boards
of the different State institutions
and filled them with Republicans. This
was wrong and the people Throughout
State felt that it was wrong.
THE NEWS believes Governor Steu
nenberg will correct this wrong. |
believes he will rise above this plain Q
partisanship and will recognize tn
fact that the minority have some right
as well as the majority. In all Stat
matters, it believes, it win be his air
to let justice be done though the hea'
ems fall. Let other Parties be repr'
scented on the boards OF the State il
situations like the University, Normi
schools and Asylum, as well as II
Democratic party. The Democrat
party will suffer nothing by such p
triotic and generous course.
