The Tax Fixed.

At a recent session of the board
of aldermen the tax on neal beer
dealers was fixed at $500. There
was a strong sentiment for a $1CO
tax, four of the city fathers favor.
ing this amount andfour standing
out for the larger sum. Mayor
Smoot decided the matter by vot.
ing for the $500 tax. 1t has been
said there is not a large profit in
the near beer business anyway,
unless it has other features con-
nected with it. so it was thought
that few, if any would take out a
license for it's sale, but such were
mistaken. Five in Salisbury and
several on Chestnut Hill have paid
the tax and are now doing busi-
ness.

Railroad Time Table.
the Providence Tribune.

From the Providence lrlDuhe.
Over tie line in Massachusetts, certain
newspapers seem to be considerably agf-
tated over the question whether railroad
companies should be compelled to publish
time tables in the public prints. AS near
ly as can be ascertained. their interest in
the subject is not selfish-it is a rather
small matter from the counting room
point of view. But 1t is contended that
the convenience of people who travel de-
mands that they shall be made acquaint-
ed with train schedules and that those
schedules should appear in the journals
of the day which are within the reach
of all.
It might be urged that if the railroads
do not see At thus to publish their tables
there should at least be some law or
ordinance requiring them to invent a
guidebook which is ineligible to people
of only ordinary mental ability. who are
not blessed with the eyes Of eagles. The
only guidebook or pathfinder that has
thus far come to hand is book which
bewilders everybody and guides nobody
a pamphlet In which not a single path
can be traced. 1t is as untranslatabie to
the average traveller as is chart of
Vineyard sound to a landsman The

understood; it isn't Hebrew and 1t isn't

DEMOCRATS OF SENATE MEET
HOLD SECOND CONFERENCE AS
TO THE TARIFF BILL.
Ready to Proceed With Measure
Whenever the Republicans Are
Prepared to Go Ahead.

After a second conference late yester-
day afternoon the democrats of the Sen
ate authorized the statement that the
postponement of the consideration of
the tariff bill by the Senate was not at
their request. as had been said. and de-
cIared themselves ready to proceed with
the bill any time the republicans are pre-
pared More than that. they are willing
that the sessions be longer each day, and
that the minority fix a time for the
final vote.
While no formal conclusions were
reached on the points in the bill, it was
the consensus of opinion to let the repub-
licans take sole charge of the measure
and assume all the responsibility.
1t was indicated that there would not
be a great number of extended speeches
on the bill. but that there would he de-
sire to discuss many Of the schedules. and
especially some of the amendments which
will be offered by democratic senators.
Favor an Income Tax.
The nearest approach to a formal agree
ment at yesterdays meeting was a re-
iteration of the former expression in ia
vor of an income tax. There is no doubt
that the party in the Senate is united
on that point, but there was no effort
to bring about a concrete understanding
on rates of duty on any of the articles
covered by the tariff. There was no di-
vergence of opinion as to the STABILITY
of general reduction of rates on ne
cessities of life, but some indications
that individual democratic senators would
stand against specified decreases in the
interests of their own localities.
The meeting ended without fixing a
definite time for future meetings. but
there was an understanding that other
conferences would be held from time to
time. on call by Chairman Culberson.
