REMARKABLE vINDICATION

The democratic platform for 1908
contained the following plank:
We favor an income tax as part
of our revenue system, and we urge
the submission of a constitutional
amendment specifically authorizing
congress to levy and collect tax up
on individual and corporate incomes,
to the end that wealth may bear it's
proportionate share of the burdens
of the Federal government.
Mr.. Bryan indorsed this plank
and urged the necessity of con-
stitutional amendment. President
Taft, in his acceptance speech, in
sisted that an amendment was not
necessary. For years the republican
leaders have opposed an income tax
and denounced the democrats for
advocating it. But behold the
change!
President Taft sends a message
to congress proposing the submis-
sion of an income tax amendment
and it passes the senate by a un-
animous vote--77 ayes; nays, none.
And it will undoubtedly pass the
bouse. Was vindication ever more
complete?

phonograph in the barnyard he

cows, and they gave scarcely any
milk. He then tried Il Stood on

They Immediately walked over to
the trough and gazed pensively into

When the sweet strains of The
Nuns Prayer" broke the silence all
the cows got down on their knees.
1t was not until the phonograph be-
gan to play The Old Oaken Bucket"
that the animals manifested much
interest. They looked at Smith so
accusingly then that he took the
record out of the machine and
smashed it.
Il guess they want something
quick and devilish," Smith said.
He then slipped The Sailors Horn
pipe, Rory O'Moore," " The Irish
Washerwoman" and The Arkansas
Traveller" in the phonograph in
quick succession. That morning the
cows gave so much milk that two

Democratic governors in states
having democratic legislatures
ought to call extra sessions at once
and secure immediate ratification of
the amendment. Income tax clubs
ought to be formed Immediately in
every county-non-partisan clubs to
pledge members of the various legis-
latures to vote for ratification.
Now is the time to act. The dol
lars have been enjoying an exemp-
ton denied to man. AS the law is
now, the government in time of war
can take the husband from the wife,
the son from the mother and the
father from his children, and stand
them up in front of an enemy's
guns, but it can not, even in the
hour of peril, compel wealth to
bear its share of the expenses of the
government. The income tax
amendment ought to be ratified at
the earliest possible moment. Let
democrats get to work in every
community and invite republicans
to join them. Now for the amend
ment specifically authorizing an in
come tax.-The Commoner.

LITTLE CoQUETTE. The infant
child whom Mrs. Pelligrew took
with her, when, at the risk of her
life, she crossed the Yankee lines in
search of her husband, gained her
odd name in peculiar manner.
Entering his wife's room, shortly
after the birth of his little daugh-
ter, Colonel Pelligrew said, She is
indeed a soldiers child; she has
been born amid the roar of cannon,
the clash of arms, and the uncer-
tainty of battle. The fortunes of
war are to be likened unto CO.

quette' in memory Of this fearful
struggle"

May she survive this fearful war
And live in peace. Coquette!

Not a coquette in life.
May she be pure and happy, and

the Yankee Generalissimo, sur
named Grant--has expressed his
intention of dining in Vicksburg on
Sunday next, and celebrating the
4th of July by a grand dinner and

said: No! for fear there will be a

it. The way to cook rabbit is

The banner of the Union floats over

in Vicksburg, and he did bring his
dinner with him. The Citizen

appears on Wall Paper No

nevermore. This is the last wall

MUSIC A MILK PRODUCER

There was a time when the farm
ers and dairymen in the country ad-
jacent to Montclair, N. j., thought
that grass, hay, long fodder, turnips
and an occasional hot mash were the
proper and profitable food for milch
cows. They are to drop all that
and feed their milk producers on
music. The pioneer in this move
ment is Steever Smith, a farmer
near Great Notch. When he wants
his cows to give milk he places a
phonograph out in the barnyard and
starts the music going. From that
time on it is as much as he and his
men can do to set the buckets under
the cows fast enough to catch the
milk. When all the cans are filled
he stops the phonograph and the
