EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Something We all talk about,
but few of US read. The presi-
dents annual message.
A BeIleyille man delivers this
wiseim: When your business
isn't worth Advertising, advertise
it for sale."
1t is pointed out that the dread
of war between the United ..States
and Japan is hardly we'll founded.
1t cost Japan more than 800 mil
lion dollars to fight her war with
Russia, and she has notSyet made
any progress in paying of her
loans. Her public debt is now as
great as that of the United States,
and her resources nothing like
ours. Her population is only
fve-eightS of ours and extremely
poor.
Representative Shepherd of
Texas has introduced an income
tax bill. Its provisions are some
what similar to..the 1894 measure.
1t provides for levy of 2 per
cent on incomes from $4,000 to
$4,000; of 3 per cent on incomes
between $4,000 and $4,000; of 4
per cent on incomes between
$4,000 and S32. 900; of 5 per cent
on incomes between $4,000 and
$4,000 and Of 6 per cent on all
incomes above that amount. The
bill further differs from the law
of 1894 in that it does not ex-
empt the incomes of old line
mutual insurance companies.

which of the two views does the
Post really believe. And again,
is it not a fact, that practically all
the towns who will be affected by
a law enforcement proposition,
will be able to pull through as the
Pest predicts Leavenworth will.
And again, with towns like
LeaVenworth, Great Bend, and
others who handled the liquor
business as these towns have, it
has not been only the question of
getting the revenue, but the best
way under all circumstances in
their respective communities to
control the traffic.

Before and After the Election.

The esteemed Leavenworth
Post is like all party papers, and
does a great deal of blufing.
During the recent campaign when
1t became apparent to the Post
that Senator Harris meant Just
what he said when he said if he
was elected he would enforce the
prohibitOry law. the Post liked to
have had all. sorts of night mares.
1t predicted that if such a thing
icame to pass Leavenworth would
} be ruined. Rents would decline,
business institutions would be
ruined, her industry in fact would
be thing of the past, city i'm
provements would bestopped, and
IN fact all but predicted that grass
would grow in the principal bust
ness streets of the town. Result,
the county gave Mr.. Hoch prscti-
Gully the same vote it did. two
wears ago.
Now then, after thinging every
thing was safe, along comes the
custer proceedings just what they
expected under Harris, but in
stead of taking the gloomy-be-
fofe-the-election view of the mat
ter. it says everything will be- all
right, and..gives expression to the
'. following: 60
Regretting that outside busy
bodies have iRterfered with her
management of her municipal
affairs, Leavenworth will still 90
forward, meeting changed condi.

courageOusly. There will be no
panic in municipal affairs. The
