The new liquor law Of Washington boosts
the license fee from $500 to $500 a year,
and 1t is expected the raise will reduce
the number of barrooms from b1S to about
800. The ratio will be about one saloon
for every thousand people. A great many
Washington saloons-and some that are
most prosperous are those which cater to
the colored people. 1t is interesting the
promoters Of the law to see Its effect on
these saloons. Unless the GROCERY Is maxi
ing considerable money it will not be able
to continue business and only the more
thriving establishments will survive. Al
ready the saloon men have put the ban on
the scent ~growler; nothing less than a
dimes worth will be sold in a pail. In a
number Of places bottled beer has been
raised from 10 cents to Is cents a pint and

BITS OF WASHINGTON LIFE.
Gossip snd Incident Noted al the De-
serted Capital.


Announced changes in the personnel OF
the supreme court started a flood Of gossip
about the august tribunal, and gave Wash
ington correspondents a chance to shake of
the midsummer dizziness. The chief fea-
ture Of the gossip worked of on a large
number Of newspaper as a recently re-
vealed truth is that the retiring Justice
Gray. and not Justice shiras, is the man
who executed a somersault in the income
tax decision. One Of the traditions Of the
supreme court is that no Affirmation or de-
NAL Is ever given by members Of the Sc
cret deliberations or conclusion in the con-
ference room. During all these years the
legal and political world has labored I'M
der the impression that It was Justice Shi-
ras Of Pennsylvania who at the eleventh
hour changed his vote so that the court
stood FIVE to four against the income tax.
Since the retirement Of Justice Gray and
the probable early retirement of Justice
Shiras, the statement is made that at
was not Justice Shiras who changed his
vote, and his colleagues on the bench will
not say TO-" 1t is possible that no oflcial
statement from the court on this subject
will ever be obtained, but there are cer-
tain circumstances recalled in exclusive cir
Giles which throw a new light upon what
has heretofore been a dark secret.
When the case was FIRST argued only
eight justices sat in the case. When the
decision was announced In open court the
chief Justice stated that the court was
equally divided. No explanation OF the vote
is customary, and the public was left to
guess as to the details Of the vote. All the
justices, except Gray, shiras and Brown,
delivered individual opinions. Thus the con-
clusion was reached that those who voted In
favor Of the income tax we're Associate
Justices Brown, Harlan, Gray and White.
Those against II were supposed to be Chief
Justice Fuller and Justices Field, Brewer
and shiras.
A rehearing Of the case was ordered be-
fore a full bench, and Justice Jackson, a
democrat, who had been i'll, sat IN the case
on its second hearing. When the decision
was rendered II was found that the tax had
been declared unconstitutional by a vote of
8 to a.. Justice Jackson announced the rea-
son for his vote, so there was no doubt as to
the views OF at least six members OF the
court. Justices Gray, Brown and Shiras re-
NAMED silent, and as the final result could
only have been reached by a change Of one
OF those three votes, suspicion was put upon
Justice Shiras, because 1t was said that he
was a corporation lawyer.
Az a clincher to the story the Washington
gossipers say that when Justice Harlan was
referring in vigorous and emphatic terms to
the sudden change Of heart upon the part OF
a member Of the court, who had previously
favored an income tax, he turned and stared
at Justice Gray. The force Of this circum-
stance is drawn from the fact that at that
time Justice Gray sat on the left Of the chief
justice. 18th Justice Harlan, while Judge
shiras on the right Of the chief justice
with Justice Field.

Dear Sir: Lead and oil is no longer
the paint to be prosperous with.
As everybody knows, lead and oil
chalks or powders off in about three
years-three years is its limit.
Painters are putting little zinc in
their lead to make it fought lasts a
good three years with little zinc.
But painters don't like the job Of mix
ing ziuc. It's tedious job, and, both
being white, nobody knows when the
mixing is thorough. 1t gets half-mixed;
and the paint goes on, streak of lead
and streak of zinc. That is not gooc
work.
The mistake made is trying 70 do by
hand what is better done by machinery
Hand-work can't compete with machine
work.
Devoe lead and zinc is your paint. 1t
wears twice as long as lead and oil.
This reduces the cost of keeping {
house well painted to half.

In the afternoon the grand and petit
Jurors were sworn. Judge Starts charge
to both panels seemed to us to give jur-
ors as plain conceptions of their work
and obligation as any we have ever lis
tened to. j. b. Wallace of Concord was
appointed foreman of the grand jury.
We understand there is very little bust
ness tor them to consider.
A call of the docket disclosed 4 cases
settled and discontinued, 16 continued
while a number were marked for further
consideration by the court. Counsel not
being ready to take up the jury cases,the
court heard the case OF Stowell VS.

able severity and refusal to support, Gus
