CASTING ASIDE THE sATTLEsHlP
FOR THE SUBMARINE.

II is quite likely that the average
man who is interested in such matters
at first regarded the fight being made
for an extraordinarily large number
OF submarines In Congress with no
concern. but the contest has assumed
such huge proportions that the lndlf-
ference has been supplantcd by posi-
tive alarm by all who regard patriot
one of the most tremendously power
ful Hobbies ever In existence in Wash
tngton Is now working for the sub
marine, regardless of the need and
worth of battleships, there Is no long
or any doubt, and there are also men
of problty in the United States SEN
ate and the House of Representatives
who do not believe in greater navy
who are alllgning themselves with
tho people who are pushing forward
tho submarine Mt the sacrifice oil the
battleshlp. The report of the naval
committee in which the appropriation
for battleships was cut and that for
submarines was Increased was some
thing of II surprise, but the public
seemed to take the change without
much protest, but since then. as the
folly of the change has become more
and more apparent. there has been an
arousing of public sentiment which
can be construed in only one way
that the public, the intelligent
public;4 the public that keeps itself
thoroughly informed on such matters,
wants more battleships and does not
desire the number of battleships re-
duced for the purpose of increasing
the number of submarines
1t is understood that the strongest
demand for submarines comes from
the Pacific coast. whore there pre-
walls an extreme and acute case of
Japanesephobia The resident Of any
city or town ON the Pacific coast can
in the easiest sort OF manner have
all sorts of dreams about the war
ships of the AIikado suddenly appear
ately opening fire on the business
places ana homes and, for some rea-
son, which is beyond explanation on
our part, they entertain the belief
that their only hope for safety lies in
submarines. They want them IN
the harbors. and they want them in
the rivers. and their desire for them
is of such burning and intense ma
turc that they probably would not
mind il they were anchored in their
public parks. IN true Western style
they have gone about to accomplish
their purpose in an energetic and ag-
gressIve manner The powerful lobby
is the result. And then there are
submarine builders who have not fail
cd to grasp the opportunity and who
arc ready to exert their best efforts
to advance their own interests.
Granting that the submarine is all
that It's friends and admirers claim
for II. there is absolutely no sane rea-
son why the construction of battle
ships should be limited to one or two
because some people want the fighting
machine which is of an almost en-
tireiy unknown quality. That the
country Is in absolute need of more
battleships, thero ig not a doubt in
Vic mind Of the student who l,as made

10 CUT OFF REBATES.



County Clerk King who attended
the meeting OF clerks and commits
sioners at Hutchinson says the prin-
cipal subject discussed at this meet
ing was tax rebates. II the county
clerks, the state tax commissioners
and many county commissioners have
any influence in the next legislature,
the rebate will be abolished. There
are two strong objections made to the
tax rebate by these men who have
studied tax matters. In the first
place the man who gets the benefit Of
it does not need it as general rule,
while tn. poor man who might be
benefited by it, is never able to pay
all his taxes at once and take the re-
bate. But the second objection is
more important. A certain tax rate
is levied to raise money for the varl-
GUS funds; bridge and road fund.- sink
ing fund, interest fund, ETC., in the
county special Improvement funds
water, lighting, schools, etc., in the
city, and the general revenue OF the
county. Each OF these funds must
receive the amount Of taxes levied for
them and all the rebates are taken
out Of the general revenue fund OF the
county.
