WAUGHS JOB REMINDS
HIM OF DOG CATCHER

Guthrie, Okla, July 3.-That 1t is
impossible to enforce prohibition in
Oklahoma is the belief Of State En-
forcement Oficer B. ]. Waugh, after
a two weeks campaign Of confisca-
tion in Oklahoma City which had filled
the cellar of the county jail with four
freight car loads of wet goods. A
hundred or more successful raids have
been made. Practically every search
has netted results. In one morning
recently ten raids landed three wagon
loads of beer and bars.
From the results of the campaign
Waugh says:
Eighty per cent of the people OF
Oklahoma City are opposed to pro
hibition laws. Such sentiment in a
city will make the enforcement of the
prohibitory law ineffective and as long
as the sentiment remains what it is
there is no hope of permanent I'M
provement in the situation.
my work here in Oklahoma City
reminds me of dog catcher's-you
catch the dog all right, but there are
innumerable dogs awaiting the wagon
Joints spring up in the old places as
fast as they are raided.

NEW KATY TRAIN
ON SEPTEMBER 4
Probable That Train Will Leave St.
Louis at 10 a. M, And Arrive in
Dallas Next Morning.

Muskogee, Okla, July S.-Tbe NJ,
K. & r. has mentioned the date Sun
day, September A. for the inauguara-
ton of the new twenty-five hour train
to north Texas.
The new service is in addition TO
that of the present Flyer service, and
means double daily trains to Texas
and intermediate points. 1t shows
an added evidence of growth in the
volume of passenger business through
ST. Louis to the great northwest.
In general way the new train will
resemble the Flyer in equipment as
the most modern engines have been
purchased and the coaches have been
especially designed and built for good
service and comfort to passengers.
Though not definitely decided, the
time for departure from st. Louis will
be 10 o'clock in the forenoon, and ar
rival at o'clock the next morning in
Dallas.

CLOSE
ANOTHER JOINT
Several Places Where it is Thought

Watched by Officers.

The long arm of the law reached
out again this morning and the lid
in Vinita was screwed more firmly on.
This time it was the joint of John Will
liams, colored in the Winters build
ing on the east side that was closed.
Under a similar order to those, under
which several other joints have been
closed, the sheriff's force nailed up the
doors of this joint this morning.
John Williams, Elwood Lett and
Lucy Bean, all colored. were placed

and more arrests are expected to fol-
low.

EIGHT REPUBLICANS
VOTE AGAINST TAX
BY Vote of 60 to II Senate Amend
ment Suggested BY Taft to Al
drich-Payne Tariff Bill.

Washington, D. c.. July 3.-The cor
poration tax amendment, suggested by
President Taft, drawn by Attorney
General Wiekersham and presented to
the senate by Mr., Aldrich, chairman of
the committee on finance, is an integ-
raj part of the tariff bill as that bill
now stands.
After much tribulation the senate
reached a vote on the proposition
shortly before adjourning at Z o'clock
last evening and the amendment was
agreed to by the vote of 60 to II. With
all modifying amendments disposed of
many democrats voted with most OF
the republicans for the amendment
OF the eleven negative votes eight
were cast by republicans and three by
democrats, the republicans being
Borah, Bristow, Bulkley, Clapp, Cum
minis, Dolliver, Hepburn and La Fol
lette, and the democrats Chamberlain,
Hughes and Shively.
The affirmative vote was as follows;
Aldrich, Bradley, Brandegee, Briggs,
Brown, Burkett, Burnham, Burrows,
Burton, Carter, Clark, Wyoming;
Crawford, Cullom, Curtis, Depew, Dick,
Dillingham;, Dixon, Dupont, Elkins,
Flint Frye, GaIlinger, Gamble, Gug-
genheim, Johnson, Jones, Kean, Lodge,
Lorimer, McCumber, Nelson, Page,
Penrose, Perkins, Piles, Root Scott,
Smoot, Sutherland, Warner, Warren
and Wetmore, republicans, and Bailey,
Bankhead Cuberson, Daniel, Davis,
Fletcher, Foster, Gore, Johnson, Nc
Emery, McLaurin, Martin, Money, New
lands, Rayner Talliaferro and Taylor,
democrats.
With the corporation tax amend
ment out of the way, the maximum and
minimum proposition probably will be
taken up.
The real effect of the Taft-AIdrich
substitute for the income tax is shown
by Senator Borah of Idaho (progres-
sive republican,. Note Mr.. Borah's
words carefully. and you will under
stand why Aldrich thought up way
to beat the income tax:
THE Aldrich plan to tax the net
earnings of corporations, when COM
pared to an income tax, is only an
other way to shift the burden Of the
tax to the consumer and producer at
the bottom. If mans income is $780,
900, and the law tells him he must pay
2 per cent on that income to the gov
ernment, there is no way for him to
shift that tax But if it is a corpora
ton that has an income of $4,000, and
the government comes along and puts
a per cent tax ON those earnings,
the corporation turns around and adds
the tax to the price of the goods it
sells or takes enough from the wages
of it's men to make up the difference.
That is the situation in a nutshell
Many friends of a genuine income
tax believe that President Taft has
made very serious blunder. One re-
publican said:
"Mr. Taft is on record as favoring
a straight out income tax. He has
said in speeches and official messages
that he considered it unnecessary to
amend the constitution in order to
have a perfectly sound and legal ill
come tax Mr. Taft ruches in with
a message asking for a constitutional
amendment and for corporation tax
in place of an income tax. How in the
world is he to reconcile his present
conduct with his past declarations? ?"
