 The hold that racing has taken on so-
 ciety has greatly interfered with us. Whitney has made Saratoga so attrac-
 tive that a large element mas made the
 springs unusually brilliant. Think of
 Mrs. Astor. our own crowned society queen, having to change a date because a race day interferes. Such is the fact, however. Out of consideration for the racing men, Mrs. Astor has advanced the date of her ball to August 2s, so that en- thusiasts here can go on for the Futurity race, to be run on August 30 Otherwise there might be a lack of men and wo- men, too.

board of the local association. it is
more than probable meeting of the
full association will be called at an
early period TO take action on the mat
ter.
Some OF the dealers are inclined 10
throw stones at those engaged in other
branches of business and ask why taxes
are not imposed on cigar stores. lunch
rooms, clothing stores and the like. One
of them stated the lawmakers ap-
parently think there is a gold mine in
the saloon business. but there is no
foundation for the belief. The license
tax here now, they claim, is much larger
than in other cities of the country, and
altogether a gloomy view is taken of
the outlook. However. there are some
who believe that the measure will not
become law.
The National Retail Liquor Dealers
Association will hold its regular meet
ing here in October, but il is not i'm
probable that the executive board of
that body will consider the pending
measure before that time in order to
set forth its objections.

VIII Fight Amendment to
the District Appropria-
ton Bill.
HARD BLOW FOR RETAILERS
Passage of Proposed Legislation Would
Mean an Increase of $500 to $500
President Harvey to Call a Special
Meeting of Association.

Much speculation has been aroused
among the saloon keepers and liquor
dealers of Washington over the pro-
posed increase in liquor licenses in the
District. At present the wholesale liquor
dealers pay an annual tax of $3.50 per
year, while the retail men are assessed
$500 annually.
BY an amendment to the District ap-
preparation bill as reported to the SEN
ate by the committHe of that body. it
is proposed to raise the wholesale tax
from $3.50 to $500, and the retail tax to
$500, or double what it is at the present
time

Have Their Doubts.

The enactment of these provisions into
law, however, Will be fought vigorously,
not only by the liquor dealers of the
National Capital, but those in the same
business throughout the country. 1t was
not until Thursday that President Hugh
Harvey, Of the local liquor dealers as
sociation. heard of the proposed change.
and Immediately held a conference with
Mr.. Z. L. Jordan. president of the Ma
tiona! Retail Liquor Dealers Associa-
tion. relative to the matter. They were
not inclined to discuss the subject. and
said they did not apprehend that Con-
gress would attempt TO foist so unrea-
sonable and unjust a measure on those
in business here.
1t is more than probable that action
bearing on The proposed increase will be
taken by the executive board of the
Liquor Dealers Association at a special
meeting to be called by President Har-
vey i'll a few DAYS. The board which
consists Of twenty-five members, will
hold its regular meeting next Wednes-
day, but it is urged by the dealers that
some action should be taken without de-
lay in opposition TO the enactment of so
pernicious a measure. They assert that
they cannot sit idly by with their hands
behind their backs without defending
themselves.

Bear a Heavy Burden.

1t is pointed out that the dealers. are
already overburdened, and that many
have hard time TO make both ends
meet Washington. they state, is not a
commercial city. and those in business
here depend largely upon the cosmopoli-
tan and transient trade. Furthermore,
business has been on the decline here for
i number OF years past, and every year
many are forced TO go out of business.
There are now 535 retail establishments
tion TO know state that the passage of
such a measure as proposed would result
in half of them closing shop.
Ten years ago the retail liquor license
was increased from 800 to $500 and the
wholesale license from $50 to $3.50. and
now in order to meet the expenditures of
the District. it is proposed to again
impose a larger tax. In 1893. when the
last increase went into effect there
were nearly COO saloons in operation
here and since then there has been
gradual decline.
While many did not go out Of business
Immediately upon the passage of the law.
they have since succumbed TO the inevi-
duced 10 535. But one new liquor license
has been secured during that period. as
the Excise Board has made it 4 practice
to grant no new ones. although ii is
possible to renew old licenses every
year.
