gresham j. A. Tawney of the ways
and means committee; speaking Of
the meeting in Washington Nov
ember so, said: 1.-The object is to
consider the extent to which the
war revenue taxes can be removed
and amendments made to make the
law more satisfactory. The problem
us to what taxes shall be removed
will be perplexing one. | think,
however, it is safe to say that the
stamp tax upon instruments Of
conveyances, such as notes; deeds
mortgages, ihheritances for charit-
able and benevolent;Pprposesi will
be removed, possibly the taxes OH
proprietary medicines and some
others. 1t will be the desire Of the
members of the committee to re-
move just as many of the stamp
taxes apostolic, but, like the re-
moyal of the stamp taxes under the
civil war revenue act, this will
have to be done gradually TO avoid
sailing too closely to the Danger of
a deficit"

An Available Candidate.

The electoral votes OF New York being
such potent factor in the Presidential
contest, the Democratic Convention is
sure to look to that State for a candidate
for the Vice Presidency.
None can fail to recognize that there
are many reasons why the choice Of
William Sulzer would be a fortunate
one for the DemocrscY. Few men in
the United States have had a more
brilliant political career than has Mr..
Sulzer,
When ~ years OF age he was elected
to the State Legislature, and for four
successive wears was reelected, During
his FIVE years Of service In the Assembly
he won for himself great distinction. In
1897 and 1894 he was the leader Of the
minority. and IN 1893 he was made
Speaker OF the Assembly, being the
youngest man to whom such an honor
had ever been accorded
AS a State legislator he was always
alert in behalf Of any measures Tor the
advancement Of the cause OF organized
labor, ard the working classes through
out the State soon came 10 know him as
a true friend.
In 1894 Mr. Sulzer entered the arena
of national politics, and here he has
been even more successful. He wa!
elected TO represent the Eleventh
