One ingenious advocate of the
income tax idea dismisses the
charge that it would transform us
into a nation of liars with the state
ment that it would do nothing of
the kind, because our other sys-
TENS of taxation have already et-
fected that very natural transfor-
nation. Whatever else one may
say of this philosopher, his cheer
full Willingness to take the bull by
the horns compels admiration and
a certain quality of respect.

QUESTION OF REGISTRATION
Governor Sanders and the Duty OF the
Registrars

In telegram from Baton Rouge 1t Is
announced that Governor Sanders has
referred to the Attorney General. for
his opinion, the question of whether or
not the registrar Of voters of the parish,
before an election, is to visit the differ
ent precincts. in order to give the farm
ers and merchants who live some dis
tance from the court house the oppor-
tunity to register without travelling all
the way to the parish seat. The matter
has come up for Calcasiou parish, which
is an unusually large one. A vast ma
jority of the registrars OF voters are
making tours of the parishes where
there is an election. in order to allow
the voters opportunities to register. 1t
would seem that Governor Sanders
holds it is the duty of the registrar to
visit the different parts Of the parishes
to allow the voters to register. for. in
his Letter to the registrar Of St. Landry
he gives instruction to this effect.

SHATTUCK INEXPLlCABLE
In Greater Dilemma Than Ever-En-
tangles Himself in Explanation.

The lberville Sentinel: The framer of
the famous Infamous Shattuck Gay
liquor law finds himself in the dilemma
Of not being able to explain the creature
of his own mind
This looks rather suspicious, as if this
famous. or otherwise. law has been
adopted by a foster father, who can
not and will not be responsible for the
actions of his foster child.
The diversity of interpretation of the
liquor law makes even S. o. Shattuck
hesitate as to the real meaning.
The Supreme Court is slow in render
ing its decision, and in the meantime.
many abuses are being perpetrated.
Some wiseacres. pretending to know
all. assert that the law can not effect old
established saloons. assigning as rea-
son that the law would be retroactive.
This merely shows the mental callous-
ness Of such legal talent.
To make the law retroactive it would
be necessary to fine all such who con-
Quoted a saloon within the prescribed
limits during the past. But no sane per-
son desires to see the law have that ef-
feet.
But the law should prevent such
abuses in the future is both the intent
of the law as we'll as the desire of every
law abiding citizen
