A Farewell,

Ny fairest child, have no song to give you
No lark could pipe in skies so dull and
gray;
Yet il you will, one quiet hint I'll leave
you,
For every day.
III tell you how to sing a clearer carol
Than lark which halls the dawn or breezy
down
To earn yourself purer poets laurel
Than Shakespeare's crown.
Be good, sweet maid, and let who can be
clever;
Do lovely things, not dream them all day
long;
And so make Life, and Death, and that For
Ever,
One grand, sweet song.

TWO VIEWS on THE INCOME TAX

ST. LOUIS. Dec. 2o.-Adoiphus
Busch. the multi millionaire brewer,
says that he is in favor OF an income
tax law. Discussing that part of Pres
ident Roosevelt's message referring to
an income tax law, Mr.. Busch yester-
day said:
If there were not SO many stingy
rich me in the United States every
man with decent income would be
paying his fair proportion of govern
ment taxas.
"A man with money is SO fortunate
that l believe he should be respecta-
bly, liberal. l have always wondered
why 1t Is that those Of us who have SO
much of this worlds goods still want
to get more and more still, and never
share our prosperity with others.
Now, don't want to decry men
for accumulatin money. That's what
call thrift. We can't have too much
Of it in this country. But this thing of
the wealthy man objecting every time
the government vents to impose a
tax that may effect his income il
silly and shortsighted"

the withdrawal from allotment Of
nearly four million acres OF land be-
longing to the Five Civilized tribes in
the Indian Territory for the purpose
Of creating forest reservertion, two
membes Of the presidents cabinet,
Secretary Hitchcock and Secretary

their course by stating that they hal
the best interest of the Indian at
heart. Their explanation was made
before select senate committee
which Is investigating affairs in rela-
ton to the property rights of the Five
Tribes, but the committee declined to
accept it and Senators Clark of Wyom-
ing Teller and Brandegee declared
that the interior department has sus-
pended a statute of the United States
Without authority and that it was the
duty of Secretary Hitchcock to inn
mediately cancel his order withdraw

The same senators said to Secretary
