1t is claimed in different local.
tiles where the voting machine has
been used that it absolutely makes
no mistakes; because of the politi-
cal methods, it has got to be al
most impossible TO get competent
clerks aud so there is a growing
sentiment in favor of the ma
chimes. If machines could be used
entirely for great per cent OF
the voters, it would be just as
we'll.

Country Flooded
with Bogus Notes.

The country from New York to
San Francisco has been flooded
with an issue Of bogus bank notes
printed from steel plates of the
State Bank OF New Brunswick,
New Jersey, which went out OF
existence over fifty years ago. The
plates were supposed to have been
destroyed, but it seems that they
have fallen into the hands of par
ties who have printed the notes in
large quantities. A large percent
age Of the notes so far distributed
are twos, although some ones and
fives are being sent to the treasury
department at Washington. As the
notes are not counterfeits of any
United States obligation the ma
kers and passers can not be prose
cuted under the laws Of the UniteC
States, but it is thought they car
be punished under the state laws
The notes are printed on DonC
paper and are equally as good il
every way as the originals. 1t il
said that possibly 100000 o
these notes are in circulation

WILL PAY UNDER PROTEST
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL
REVENUE RENDERS DECISION i
Articles Subject to Tax in United
States Must Pay When Ship
ped to Philippines.

Washington, Nov. 15:-The commits
sioner of international revenue to-
night rendered a decision in which
he holds that beer, whisky and other
articles of domestic manufacture, sub
ject to internal revenue tax when con-
signed in the United States, are sub
iect to this tax when shipped to the
Philippine islands. In this sense the
Philippines are held to be domestic
territory. 1t is expected that export
ers will pay the TAX under protest,
having in mind the fourteen diamond
rings" case, now pending in the Unit
ed States supreme court, in which an
| early decision is expected. This case
involves the same question which
has arisen in the consideration of the
internal revenue tax cases and if the
court should hold that the Philippines
are foreign territory for customs and
internal revenue tax purposes, ex.
porters will be entitled to a refund OF
the amount of the tax paid.
