Dinsisy Law Not Producing Enough Rev
cone To Run Government.


CrgvELANp, Ohio, Nov. i5--In an
interview Senator Hanna said the
tariff would have to 30 revised to meet
existing conditions The war cvenu
measure" he said. must be revised.
but we will keep many OF the original
features OF the law, simply because IL
Is now necessary. Under the old tariff
law we are NOT getting very much rev.
cnue, because we are exporting instead
OF importing, and something must
be done to meet these new conditions.
We must have a new rovcnuc measure.
So far rs / am concerned I favor
putting q duty on tea and coffee. Tho
for the support Of the gov.
eminent must be raised in some way,
and the indirect Is tho best way. ac-
cording to my idea. When the people
do not realize that they are paying n
Tux there is no complaint, Still II
will be necessary to retain some of the
features of the war revenue measures.
The tax Is now on the people, and In
some instances 1t Is the proper method

blue print gown were rolled up past
her elbows, and her hands were yet
swollen and red from the scalding and
chilling process.
Suddenly there came a sharp knock

featured woman thrust her head
through the bathroom window, which
looked out on the back veranda.
There's some one at the door, Bes-

have reached to the housefront.
The girl hurried along the narrow
passage, unrolling her right sleeve as
she went, which was the one to be
presented when the door should be
opened.
