May be the Ontcome of the Effort to Or.
ganize an Emergency Corps.
1t is believed that the effort to or
ganize a firemen's emergency asso
citation in Cumberland Valley towns
will eventually resolve itself into 6
league composed of the companies OF
Harrisburg. Chamber burg. Carlisle,
Mechanicsburg Hagerstown Martins.
rburg and Winchester and all utter
mediate and outlying towns in the
Cumberland Valley. This will have
the character of fireman's associa.
ton and if it materallzes it means the
organization of five or ten thousand
firemen into separate league. This
will not conflict with the emergency
de partment. A great deal depends
however, upon the attitude of the
Cumberland Valley Railroaa. If that
company aids with low rates it is pos
sible that a magnificent organization
will be effected.

, A TAXATION SCHEME.


Missouri, like Minnesota, is prepar-
ing to. revise its system Of taxation.
The uppermost idea with the revisers
in that State appears to be that corpo-
rations operating public utilities
should yield enough in taxes to pay all
the expenses of the State government,
thus leaving the counties and munich
palities free to tax themselves as their
needsrequire,, and putting an end to
frequent conflicts of interest and the
juggling of the revenues to. shift the
burdens of taxation from one portion of
the States population to another. Mis-

THE CANTEEN AGAIN,

The army authorities, who have been
opposed to the abolition of the canteen,
pretend to believe that it will prevent
enlistments.,. That is all moonshine.
None but the professional soldier,
knows or cares about the canteen: It
is true that its abolition was matter
of doubtful prudence, but it will not
make a fig difference in the enlist
ments. Like high license as a means
OF curtailing the liquor trafic, the can
teen was a choice of the least of two
evils. No one who is posted from &C
tual observation, can be found who
does not believe that the canteen re-
duced drunkennessi in the army. It was
always possible to control the canteen,
to limit it to the sale of beer, and to
prevent the sale to intoxicated persons.
