VAR REVENUE REDUCTION.
Senate Discriminates In Favor of
Rich Corporations

senate Dtscrimtnatcs In Tavor of
Rich Corporations.
The senate committee OH finance has
finished tinkering with the house bill
reducing the taxes imposed by the war
tevenue act, says the New York News.
The senate wants to cut off about $40,-
100000, which generally speaking is a
horizontal cut of 80 per cent. This Is
considerably more than the house pro-
posed and to that extent Is an improve
ment on the measure as 1t came from
the representatives. But all necessity
for stamp tax has passed away, and
the entire war revenue law should be
repealed. Last year 1t rolled up sur
plus of $79,0O0,000. This year, even If
the president gets his new army Of
100000 men organized, the tax law un-
amended would pile up an equal
amount at least. The steady increase
in business subject to levy would more
than meet the cost of the new military
establishment unless an era of wild ex-
travagance were inaugurated. Amend
ed by reduction of $40,000,000 the
law will still leave n surplus one-half
as large as that of last year, and $780,
100000 Is entirely too much to take
away annually from the people unnec-
essarily.
If there cannot be complete repeal,
there should be reductions along other
lines than those marked out by house
and senate. Except In few minor in
stances the taxes that fall upon the
small business man and the consumer
have not been altered. Those falling
on the corporations and rich manufac-
turers have been cut in half. This Is
unjust discrimination.
One provision of the bill enables the
Republican campaign managers to
make good their promises to the brew
ers, who contributed so largely to the
reelection of Mckinley. The brewers
were told that IL they put up money
literally 10 help Mckinley the addi-
tional war tax on beer would be at
least materially reduced. The Repub
lican campaign managers have sue
ceeded in getting the senate to make
further reduction to $1.50 per barrel,
therefore they feel that they are men
of their word.

ABOLISH THE STAMP TAX.
Justice to the People Demands That
Ii BE Taken on.

Justice to the People Demands That
Ii BE Taken OF.
The proposition to establish discrim-
ination between different classes Of
patent medicines In the amendment Of
the stamp tax bill should not receive
one moments consideration.
In the original recommendation for
the repeal Of the stamp taxes all pro
prietary medicines were included. since
relief to the greatest number of people
was the object In view. Later on
campaign debt sprang up, making 1t
part of politics to relieve the brew
cries. In order to make up for the def
icit thus created It is now proposed
to single out certain classes Of pro
prietary medicines upon which the bur
den must be placed. Such dlscrimina.
tion In favor Of the brewer as against
the sick man should not be permitted,
and discrimination between the rene
dies themselves is without reason.
In taxing proprietary medicines con-
gress will tax the sick and those least
able to stand It. Justice to the people
demands that the whole tax should be
taken OFF.

London, Feb. ALI that was mortal
of the late lamented queen was placed
beside the remains Of the prince con-
sort, Victoria's husband, In the mauso-
leum at Frogmore. at p. m. today.
The royal coffin was conveyed from

gun carriage drawn by artillery.
There was present distinguished
gathering.
The guard OF honor was the late
Queens company OF Grenadier guards,
the regimental band accompanying the
escort to the mausoleum. The cere-
mony there was private, the immediate
members ofthe royal family attending.
The archbishop of York. the bishop OF
Winchester and the dean of Windsor

recting, rendered the music. The choir
met the procession at the steps of the
chapel and with the clergy preceded

the servants and the late queens
pipers, following.
Memorial services, pulpit references
and touching scenes occurred again
throughout the United Kingdom, while

come innumerable kilograms describ-
ing how Saturday was kept. Wher-
ever few British were gathered to-
gcther their ordinary labors were
abandoned for religious services and
their thoughts were turned toward the
bier of Victoria.
Friday afternoon the body of the
queen was removed from Osborne pal
ace, Isle of Wight, and conveyed to
mainland with brilliant ceremony. The
feature was great naval demonstra-
ton, warships of all nations forming
an imposing escort. On Saturday the
remains reached London and were
borne through the city to Windsor
amid scenes without parallel in Eng
lands annals. The funeral procession
was q glittering spectacle. Thousands
OF gaily uniformed cavalry and infan
try participated, many crowned heads
and princes Of Europe were in line,
and the whole of London turned out
to witness the event.

Being Adjusted by the Operators and
Miners at Columbus.


Columbus, o., Jan. 31.--Coal oper-
ators from all sections Of the country
are in conference here with delegates
representing the United Mine Workers
of America. A wage scale and other
matters will be determined. The min
ers make a demand for a universal
run-of-mine system throughout the
four states Of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Pennsylvania, and an increase Of
10 cents per ton for pick-mining. The
operators will resist these demands.
The proposition to extend the COM
petitive field, which means to take in
Iowa and Michigan into the agreement
covering Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, was defeated.

Columbus, o., Feb. 6.-"The situa-

at this stage of the present conference
than at any previous conference" said
President John Mitchell of the miners
after the report Of the scale committee
had been made. The situation is
gloomy, but a hope is expressed by
both miners and operators that some
common ground can be found upon
which they can agree as to prices and
conditions for mining coal during the
coming year. The miners state they
are prepared to call general strike IL
an agreement is not reached.
