eyed Ben TilIman, when he trots into
community, where he thinks he can
spring something. A man named
McNulty addressed the Young Mems

Sunday in sensational manner. He
talked like he had direct communica-
ton from He'll He did not have

Have been better and more forcible
for him to confne himself to the
Scriptures, without putting construc-
ton or emphasis on this, that or the
other. In this day and generation
the intelligent minister does not play
on the cars of his hearers. but mere
ly breaches the Gospel. McNulty
could have done that without trying
to sway his audience with thunder
tones. gestures and no one not there
knows what else.

His uncomplaining forbearance. his
clamllke acceptance of all that was

his entire lack OF argumehtative ability
have proved the downfall OF Edward
Bushrod. Had he been possessed Of a

TAX FIREWORKS.

IS PROPOSED LAW
LuXuries May Be Classed
as Liquors and
Tobacco.

That Congress will be asked Tits win

Fourth Of July fireworks and explosives.
now seems more than probable. The re-
quest will be coupled with a second de-
Inand that the money accruing from
such a tax be devoted to investigation
OF tetanus and its treatment.
Edward Manley. a citizen OF Chicago,
IS out with the statement that he has
written President Roosevelt letter ask
ing him TO recommend to Congress the
imposition OF the tax.
In commenting on Mr. Manleys plan
the Journal Of the American Medical
Association says;
1T is 10 be hoped that President
Roosevelt win accept the suggestion.
Liquors and tobacco already contribute
10 the support Of the Government by the
revenue tax levied on them, and nearly
every argument for taxing liquors and
tobacco applies to the proposed tax on
fireworks. Good governments have al
ways sought to make the burdens OF
taxation fan more heavily on the lux
uries than on the necessities OF life. and
II fireworks are to be classed as any
thing but nuisance IL must be as a
luxury. Such a tax would be emiuently
fair, for any person who does not wish
10 pay il is free TO do without fireworks.
The proposed TAX would be easy to col
leCt, as a revenue stamp could he at
tached to each cannon cracker, rocket,
box Of blank cartridges, and package
of hrecrackers.
AS a test of actual patriotism, such a
tax IS unexcelled. Under the proposed
law, every dollar would blIy. let us say,
fifty cents worth of fireworks for the
patriot. and would make a present of
the other fifty to our good Uncle sam
And even then the prices OF fireworks
would be no higher than they were
generation ago, and not half 50 high as
they ought 70 be.
while il is true at present that the
Government needs no such contribution,
II is equally true that the Government
is apparently unwilling to appropriate
money TO investigate the diseases result
ing from Fourth-of-July injuries, and a
host of other diseases that might be in
vestigated on the mOney raised by the
tax suggested. The Government has
spent more in trying to eradicate hog
cholera than in attempting to discover
a preventive for consumpuOni for haV-
ing devoted more time and money to the
boil weevil and wheat rust than to can
Ger and tuberculosis. Why should &c
turn a deaf ear to the cries OF its suffer
