received with regret in some quar-

goes without saying that Prohibi-
tionists will be delighted because
the friend OF the old soldier is no
longer in their path. His with
drawal will make possible the
selection Of man more favorable
to their views, and we may be sure
that whatever influence .hey have
with the present Administration
will be exerted to have q man ap
pointed to the position who will
overrule Mr.. Griggs' eminently
sensible canteen decision. Mr..
Griggs' departure will also give
opportunity for the appointment

however, that any one will be
named who will proceed against
those illegal combinations-under

The Beer Tax Reduction Rests with
Democrats.


Democrats.
No information will be given out
until next Saturday regarding the
items which will be selected for re-
duction Of the war tax. 1t has
been practically determined that
the levy will be reduced $50. .ooo,-
900 with preference given to the
items named in leading article on
our first page. Beer does not fg-
ure among them, and so far as can
be learned the committee is op-
posed to a reduction OF the beer
tax.
While the recommendation Of
the committee will have weight
with Congress, embodying as it
will the opinions OF Commissioner
Of Iaternal Revenue, the Secretary
Of the Treasury and the President,
it by no means follows that these
suggestions will prevail. From
present appearances the fight for
reduction will take place in open
session OF Congress where the field
for combinations between the sup
pOrters oi different interests and
for alliances between the friends OF
those interests offers hope for the
reversal OF the committees ad-
Verse-as it now appears-report
and gives encouragement for some
reduction in the rate.
There is a compact body OF $50
or more Democrats in the House,
all-or nearly all-of whom will
support repeal bill in this session
as they did in the last, around
whom it should be possible to
gather sufficient Republican votes
to amend the committee report by
inserting repeal clause. OF
course, Democrats do not consider
this their fight, and will be 10th to
inter ere in the family quarrels OF
the Republicans. Having in mind
Speaker Henderson's promise to
the brewers at Milwaukee that the
beer tax would only be repealed
in case Of McKinley's re. election,
they would much prefer that the
Speaker and his party should be
held to strict accountability for
his words. Our friends, however,
may rest assured that no fine dis.
tinctions will be allowed to swerve
the Democrats from the perform
ance OF their duty to the people.
They have pledged themselves to
tax reduction, and especially beer
tax reduction, and they will keep
their word.
A combination Of Democrats
and repeal Republican members
may force favorable action OF itself
or it may drive the Republican
majority to adopt measure Of re-
lief rather than that credit should |
be given the Democrats for doing
so. If repeal OF the beer tax fails,
it will not be the fault OF Dem |
ocracy. Iii prevails, we opine it |
will be due to those same Demo |
