VETOED PROHIBITION BILL.
Gov. Patterson of Tennessee FulfilIs
Expectations.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 21.-Gov. Pat
terson filled his veto of statewide pro-
hibition bill with the clerk of the SEN
ate after that body adjourned for the
day Tuesday afternoon.
The veto will be read to the senate
and the bill voted on again.
Opponents of the bill claim they
can count on a change of three SEN
ators to their side, and that the fourth
member, on whose vote the fate of
the measure depends, is wavering.
Should there be a change of four
votes, the veto would be sustained II
to 16.
The governor, in explaining his fail
ure to approve the bill tells the legis-
lature such a law is against the Dem
ocratic platform and the doctrine OF
self-government; that experience has
taught that no arbitrary prohibition
law was ever obeyed, and it's enact
ment brings no settlement of the
question; that it destroys property
reduces state revenues, and increases
taxation.

FOR LARGER NAVY.
House Passes Appropriation Bill After
Heated Debate.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Exactly as re-
ported by the committee the naval
program for the fiscal year 1910 was
Friday adopted by the house of repre-
sentatives and the naval appropriation
bill was passed. The opponents of
the navy increase feature of the bill
found themselves in a hopeless mi
nority. The only vital alteration
made in the measure was the strik-
ing out of the provision restoring ma
rines to naval vessels. The aggre-
gate amount appropriated by the bill
is S135,000,000
AS has been the case in the past,
the increase in the naval estimate
gave rise TO extended and heated de.
bate. in which members were afford
ed an opportunity to air their views
of the Japanese question. The peace
advicotes were much in evidence in
opposition to such increase, while the
advocates were much in evidence in
alive at all times to every move made
to cut down the number of vessels
authorized.

Kansas City, Jan. 23.-The crowd
that went to the federal court Friday
morning to hear Gov Hadley speak
in defense Of the state in the rate
case hearing had a surprise. Some
thing happened that gave the visitor
an opportunity to applaud and make q
loud noise-right in the dignifed fed
eral court.
When Gov. Hadley had finished a
speech of almost two hours in which
he gave some reasons why the people
of Missouri are entitled to lower
freight and passenger rates, the Wis
itors began to leave Judge McPher-
son gave instructions for no one to
be in hurry. He said that Gardiner
Lathrop had something of interest to
say that did not pertain to the ques-
ton of railroad rates.
Mr.. Lathrop had a gift for Gov.
Hadley. 1t was the original drawing
of John T. McCutcheon' cartoon
showing the temperance of the
Mysterious Stranger in Missouri at
the recent election. When Mr..
Lathrop displayed the drawing,
framed, to the crowd the visitors for
got they were in federal court room
and applauded. The bailiff could be

allegiance to Rockefeller by appoint

Especial Correspondence of The Argus.)
Washington. June 22.-If the Aid
Iich-Taft amendment to the tariff bill
providing for per cent tax on the
net earnings of corporations, becomes
law, it will not have the effect of
lessening the burden of the consumer.
That is, the adoption of the amend
ment will not result in a decrease in
tariff rates.
By all logic the raising of new rev
cnue from sources heretofore untaxed
should mean that a couple of neces-
sites should go on the free list. That
iG the reason the democrats are fight
ing so hard for an income tax The
can be made to pay its fair share of
the expenses of the government
through an income tax, the amount
thus raised should be deducted from
the taxes previously shouldered by the
consumer.
MUST Get more FROM BOtG.
The Aldrich-Taft per cent tax
should raise $2O,000,000 of new reve-
nue But that amount will not be
taken from the burden being carried
by the consumer For this reason
The government is running SO much in
debt, it must ultimately not only have
some revenue from the rich that ii
never collected before, but it must in
crease the tax on the consumer.
The only thing that can prevent in
creased taxation of both rich and pool
is marked economy in government ex
penditures. AS has been shown in de
tail in previous discussions of the SUB
ject, the trend of appropriations is in
an opposite direction from economy.
So it is plain that the S20,000,000 oi
new revenue that will be raised from
a tax on net earnings of corporations
will be needed along with all the rev
