TO GUT WAR TAXES
Representative Payne Will Pre-
 pare a Bill
The Evils of the Surplus Revenue to be Checked by Reduction of In ternal Taxes, and not by Tariff Revision.

Washington. Nov. 14.-Representa- tive Payne. chairman of the ways and means committed, has announced that he will introduce a bill to repeal all the war taxes imposed by the law passed three years ago. MT. Payne has re- turned home to prepare this bill. He is following the advice of Secretary Gage and has the consent of the president
 This action is understood to mean that there will be no attempt at a re- vision of the tariff schedules during the next session of congress, but that in- stead a reduction of the revenue will be made by cutting down the internal taxes. It is MT. Payne's idea to. cut the income of the treasury at least s7O,- OO0,OO0 and probably $50, ,OO0 900.
 One of the principal cuts will be the reduction of the beer tax to $1 a barrel the figure at which it stood before the Spanish war The brewers are de manding that it be put down 95 cents, which may be done if the cut of other taxes does not reduce the revenues enough. The idea is to reduce the tax on whiskey from s1.20 a gallon to at least 90 cents, and possibly to so or 70 cents. Tobacco will go from to G cents, and all miscellaneous taxes those on secret formula proprietary medicines and the like. are scheduled for repeal.
 At conference between Mir. Payne and Secretary Gage the latter by refer ence to books and reports, showed that the governments surplus. if the pres ent rate of income keeps up, will be no less than s1300 .000 al the end of this fiscal year. June 90. 1902. and that, add ed to the surplus of the year before will make a collection of S21O, 900 900 more than needed. After this interview MT. Payne and Representative Steele had Q talk with the president.
 It is said that d few of the war taxes will be allowed to remain, particularly the tax on the bucket shops

THE ODDS UNCHANGED
Ruhlin, Though, is Confident of Win - ming the Belt and Jeffries is Sure of Solidifying His Title to It in the Tenth or Twelfth Round. Ministers Effort to Stop the Fight.

San Francisco. Nov. 4.-With the Jeffries- -Ruhlin championship fight but twenty-four hours away, interest is keyed up to the highest pitch and the sounding of the gong that will bring the Los Angeles boiler maker and the Akron giant together is awaited with feverish anxiety. All day long en- thusiasts have fiocked into the city from various points and the sale of choice seats has already run its length. It is evident that Mechanics pavilion where the struggle will take place, will be taxed to its utmost capacity and that fully 0,000 persons will witness the big event.
 A group of ministers of the gospel has been striving all day to induce the authorities to interfere and stop the mill, but they have received no en- couragement. Tonight they paid their respects to Mayor James D. Phelan and received the same information which was imparted to them by District At torney Byington and Chief of Detec- tives Seymour. In other words they have been appraised of the fact that while the state law prohibits prize fighting, a local ordinance counte- nances boxing exhibitions held under the auspices of incorporated clubs and that the latter measure precludes all possibility of the city fathers stopping the fight at this juncture. The police. if they believe the mill to be brutal. and therefore beyond the pale of legiti- mate exhibition with gloves, may enter the ring and stop the bout.
 Jeffries remains the favorite at odds of ten to four. Myriads of lights have been placed above the ring for the talk ing of kiaetoscope pictures of the fight. Both men have been assured that the heat from the lights will not be so in tense as was the case at Coney island, when Jeffries and Sharkey fought.
 Gus Ruhlin spent the day in inactivity and quiet speculation He was in close consultation with Billy Madden sev- eral times during the day and has been filling up with parting shafts of sound advice from his manager. The Akron fighter ate a hearty breakfast, took q long stroll along the ocean beach in the morning and played cards a portion of the afternoon. He chatted with friends and whiled away the hours in perfect ease with apparent assurance that he would soon ascend to the championship.
 Jeffries was a trifie more active, but his exertions were provoked in the main by the demands made upon him by admiring friends with whom he walked and talked during the long af ternOon.
 The training ordeal is at an end and the trainers of both fighters are anxious now to simply keep their men from get ting trifle stale possibly mentally depressed. Jeffries is full of life and snilingly declares that he will beat Ruhlin along about the tenth or twelfth round. But few bets have changed hands today, and in all known T and riding at even better odds than yesterday.

LIGHT FROM WATER
The Company's Line of Transmission
 is Finished.

The Phoenix Electric Light com pany's line of power transmission from the falls where the waters for the south side canals are turned south toward the Salt river has been completed and the transmission of power will be begun in about five weeks. Then there will be no more of the troubles of which house holders have been complaining, of sud- denly extinguished lights or greatly diminished lights, for then the com pany will have plenty of power to meet every demand that may be made upon it.
 The line has been constructed under the direction of Electrician Belden of the company and under the personal supervision of A. C. Dodge. Thirty three men have been employed on the line since about the middle of last June. It carries three transmission wires, No. 6 bare copper insulated with porcelain. and two telephone wires. The plant is twenty-four miles northeast of the city, (so that 125 miles of wire have been strung. The poles have been placed 150 feet apart. much less than the distance from each other of telegraph poles.
 There is a water fall of 29 feet and with the turbine wheel which will be used 800 horsepower will be generated. One hundred horsepower of this energy will be lost in transmission. Practic- ally all the machinery required at the plant is now on the ground with the exception of the dynamos.
 Contrary to the general understand ing, the city plant will be improved, and among the other improvements will be a great storage battery, which will be supplied by the water power.

Keep the Balance Up.

1t has been truthfully said that
any disturbance of the even balance
of health causes serious trouble. No.
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to lose
appetite, or to get tired easily, the least
imprudence brings on sickness, weakness
or debility. The system needs tonic
Graves it, and should not be denied il
and the best tonic of which we have any
knowledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla. What
this medicine has done in keeping healthy
people healthy, in keeping up the even
balance of health, gives it the same dis
tinction as a preventative that it enjoys
as cure. Its early use has illustrated
the old saying that stitch in time save:
nine. Take Hoods for appetite, strength
and endurance.
