The worst dishonesty is honesty for policy's sake.
 Christmas lies principally in the giv- ing, not in the gift.
 The price t;g never accompanies the real Christmas gift.
 And we'll be happy if Santa brings us an extra pair of suspenders.
 If you cannot give anything else, give smile and word of cheer.
 Mighty easy to get the children to bed early these nights. And off to Sun day school.
 We know what we a like to hand the coal man--and also what we''ll have to hand him.
 If heaven were to be won only by achievements it would be frightfully lonesome place.
 This postal savings bank scheme has no interest for us at this particular time of the year.
 One reform in the currency that we want hurried along is the matter of get ting your change back in department store.
 Hog killing season-and we recall the good old days of backbone, sparerib and jowls. Make your mouth water, MT. City Man?
 Just because you cannot make every body happy on Christmas is no reason why you should not try to make some body happy.
 We have sneaking suspicion that a lot of children are fooling us into believing that we are still fooling them on this Santa business.
 Of course your friend who smokes will appreciate Christmas gift in the shape of nice pipe, but if he is real smoker he will stick to the old one until the ste mis worn of.

to the present, this winters session of
congress would hardly have been able
to withstand the demand for water
way betterment. The very CONNER
cial life of the country would have de-
peEded on it. But as matters stand,
the railroads are not only able to do
the business ut they have a surplus
of carrying Capacity. 1t is small Won
der that the enthusiasm for waterway
Improvements should somewhat have
slackened
The advocates of waterway expan-
sion point out, in answer to all this,
that inevitably there will be return
of the ola conditions, and that when
normal conditions are restored the rail-
roads viii be as inadequate as before
to handle the nations freight. They in
sist that low is the time to begin prep
arations for that era. They want gov
ernment ito step in and make timely
arrangements to meet these demands.
a Question of Revenues.
Underneath all these questions is
that of the method of taxation. Much
of the state revenue is raised by direct
taxation. The national resources are
commonly found in indirect levies.
There is a violent prejudice against
direct taxation. If the states are to
be called upon to bear say half the
cost of a great waterways program,
will they do 1t?
That is the question which a few
years ago confronted Germany. When
the project of the great east-and-west
canal thru the middle of the empire.
connecting the Rhine and the Vistula
was proposed. it was opposed on the
ground that the communities directly
benefited ought to pay the lions share
of cost When the proposal finally was
carried thru parliament it assumed
that the local government divisions
must pay certain stated parts of the
cost. the imperial government making
up the rest. 1t was exactly as If the
Washington government would declare
In favor of an inter-coastal canal from
Boston to Miami, and for the fourteen
feet thru the valley project'-on con-
dition that the states thru which the
projects were constructed, should pay.
say, half the cost. Would Illinois pay
half the cost of the canal from Chi
cago to the Mississippi? Would Mis-
souri, bear half the burden Of Mississ-
ippi river betternent along it's eastern
boundary? Would Tennessee, Arkan-
sas. Louisiana. Mississippi and the 9th
er states carry their share of the bur-
den? That is the practical question
which the waterways advocates sec
ahead
