STATE ADMINISTRATION.

The huge problem before the First
Legislature will be the ways and
means OF raising enough revenue To
carry on the State government. The
people will tolerate no tomfoolery, but
demand laws that will prouuco reye-
nue..
This important question should be
an issue In the campaign and candi.
dates for legislative honors should
clearly define their positions on the
question Of lcyying taxes, and the pco.
pie should see that no man is elect
ed to. either house or the senate who
is not able to define tax issues of the
kind that inurcs directly to the bene
fit Of the public No person or In
terest in the state should be made tC
feel uncomfortably the burden of tax
alton and II should be well kept IN
mind hat 1t is not the duty of q
State to make money. n should b,
no part of its policy TO accumulate
a surplus, desirable as n surplus may
be. \ state should not collect n dol
lar more than II needs, and the tax
money collected should all he spent
for the public Rpod. That Is plain
craftsmanship.
II our legislature is composed OF
strong men, Oklahoma need have nc
fear that they will be over persuaded
to pile up a great surplus Remcm

Italians, japanese and Other National.
tiles Are Turning to Beer. Which
is Being Drank In the Land
Of Wine In Vast Quantity.

Ardmoreite Special.
Washington. ID. c.. March 25.--Unit.
ed States Consul Dunning. Of Milan.
Italy. records the fact that Italians.
like Japanese and other nationalities.
even Americans. are turning to beer.
which Is being drank in the lands
Of wine in immensely increasing
quantities So far, It Is minated. the
few prohibitionists in Italy have
brought forward no objections, as
they are said to regard beer with
more favor than many of the wines
containing much larger quantities Of
alcohol The consul does not dare
touch upon the interesting question
of whether the drinking of beer will
have any effect in changing the char
acteristics Jf the Italian, who have
for so many years drank their wines
with the greatest regularity.
To accommodate the largely in.
creased demand for beer. many brew
cries are going up. and they are be.
ing equipped with American machin-
cry and the American system of fer.
mentation. The increased comsump-
ton Is in the face of fact that a
small glass holding one third Of a
quart less than the average American
/ glass costs cents. while 10 cents is
charged for glass holding a pint.
Wines are far cheaper for the same
quantity.
| Mr.. Dunning says that ten years
ago the Italian government collected
only s31 900 tax on breweries, while
last year the same tax yielded an in.
vome OF $500 900. Importations OF beer
likewise grew in large quantities
While Italians drank about 10000.
900 quarts OF beer in 1905 the pro.
duction of wines totaled 2,92S 923. 600
quarts OF this amount 2.S30697 200
quarts were consumed at home.
Japanese consular reports say that
the temperate japanese is becoming
exceedingly fond of beers. both do.
nestle and imported and is slowly for
salting sake, his native drink, for It.
The Japanese government Is disposed
to encourage the change for temper.
ance reasons. beer containing three
times less alcohol than sake, the old
time drink.
