TAX ON COAL OIL.

There is a bill pending before our
Legislature to tax coal oil cent per
gallon. Recollect, this is not to tax lu-
bricating oil, or oil used for other pur-
poses than illumination, hence the
hardship. When we see faint glim-
mer of light emanating from the rudest
howell, when we know that the dwell
ers in the howell are watching at the
bedside of some one sick, and the faint
ray of light is that given out by a
smoky lamp, all they have, we may
realize what the Standard Oil gathers
in sweat and money from the poorest
of the poor. That octopus reaches into
the rudest and commonest dwelling, the
last cent of the poorest negro is often
spent for half pint Of oil to make a
faint ray in cabin which has no floor
but the earth, and where the cold
comes alike through paneless window
and the chinkless walls.
How often have we felt that the vast
wealth of Rockefeller has been gather
ed thus, because no home is too num-
BILE for his hand to enter, and it is the
poor whose mites drop oftenest into
his Golfers. Seeing this, we turn with
disgust from the contemplation OF a
law which our own State is about to
fasten on us, which will increase in
thousands. the burden already laid 10y
the Standard Oil on the poor Of this
Commonwealth. The sophist may
say it will not increase the cost of oil,
but the sOphist is a., and he knows
it. He may tell you that this money
gathered thus will not come from the
pockets of the very poorest people, but
he tells what on its face is untrue. 1t
is admitted such tax will raise large
revenue. Is the Standard Oil going to
pay it? Tie question is self answered.
Is the merchant going to pay it
Again the question is self answered.
Who will pay it ? He who uses it.
The man in the howell burns more in
proportion than the richer man. One
lamp is more to him in his poverty
than ten to the wealthy farmer, hence
the iniquity. Already he is the slave
of the greatest tax gather in the world !,
and yet we will lay heavier burden
because ''the State needs the money"
Why not tax lubricating oils? This
would tax the rich corporation which
owns machinery, or the rich farmer.
Why not tax specially lard, OF. ba-
con, or cotton seed oil, or linseed oil, OF
indeed wheat or corn shipped IN here
from abroad? The answer is easy.
These would tax a person, or thing,
strong enough to rise and. damn the
makers of such a law. Another reason
is also apparent. A tax on these would
give no excuse for an INSPECTOR. Some
henceman will get job If the coal oil
tax bill passes, Somebody who would
not know coal oil from stump water
may be the lucky one. There are many
reasons for this law. They cannot be
told in one short article. There art
often wheels within wheels, and VIZ
suppose it will pass.

Tyrus Cobb, Georgia's celebrated
base ball player signed three years
contract last week to play with the
Detroits in the American League at a
salary Of $1,000 year. This is more
money than is paid to member of the
Senate, as much as is paid to a cabinet
officer, and more than justice of the
Supreme Court receives. 1t is also
nearly twice as much as we pay our
governor, and more than twice as much
as our judges on our Supreme Court
get. Recently question was raised as
to who is the best known man in
Georgia. Some said Hoke Smith, but
the majority said Ty. Cobb. Cobb was
in Staunton last fall.

1t is stated by those temperance
forces which have started to make
Chicago dry, that $4,000, 900 people are
to stop at o'clock every morning, bare
their heads and offer up prayer for
that wicked city. This is beautiful in
sentiment, lovely in thought, superb
in theory, but in execution will prove
miserable failure. There are only
about 80 million people in the United
States. Of these one-half is made up
of children, imbeciles, s'culled pussons, "
Indians, Chinese, foreigners who can
not speak English, and will never
know the election is to take place.
Nearly all of the other half don't care
whether Chicago is wet or dry, and
outside the United States most people
never heard of the place.

HAS HE FAILED?

"As secretary of state Knox has with
in year undone the work OF hay IN
the Orient and Root in the South Amer
icas; the hand of Morgan is seen Dy
many in his conduct Of the State De
partment; the ultimatum to Chile ana
the bluster about Zelaya have been
utilities that made all Latin-America
our enemies; the Manchurian proposal,
for Wall streets benefit, made America
the subject of laughter in every clvlllzed
land, and with the Crane scandal,
practically ended our influence for the
doctrine Of ssthe open door" Knox re-
Gently offered his resignation to Presi-
dent Taft across the cabinet table; the
president refused it,"
The above has been going the POUNDS
of the press. Iftrue, it must be humll-
iating to Mr.. Taft and his party. 1t Is
fresh in the memories of the public
that Mr.. Knox just had to go into the
cabinet. He was in the Senate from
| Pennsylvania, but that was not sui
ticient. 1t is also well known that Mr.
Taft did not seek Mr.. Knox with such
unetion, that he was compelled to sur
render his seat, break through rem
made for him in the constitution anc
land in the State Department. There
were reasons for this which the public
did not understand, but were perfectly
we'll known to the 'swise." He repres
ented Interests. These had contribut
ed largely to the recent campaign fund
these must have a friend at court
Knox was the friend.
AS diplomat he has proven failure
dismal, we may say, from all reports
Those who know John Hay and watch
ed his state-craft, wonder if they arr
not mistaken when they see Knox sit
ting where he once sat. All of Mr.
Knox's efforts have fallen fiat, his poll
cies failed. If the above article be true
he has felt his weakness and his failures
to such an extent that he has actually
offered to surrender his portfolio ant
step down and out. Things are surely
not so pleasant around Washington
and none is beginning to know thi
better than Mr.. Taft.

"STATE-WIDE KILLEDo

Inc Dlll KNOWN as the SCaUe-Wlue
Prohibition bill was killed in the Sen
ate on Friday last by two-thirds ma
jority. Sen ator Strobe, of Amherst,
was its patron, but the ''push" did not
come from him half so strong as from
coterie of gentlemen who have left
the ministry to manage the State. The
activity of these has done more toward
discrediting the issue than any other
thing. True, it is we'll known to intel
ligent and broad people that estate
wide" is failure everywhere tried. 1t
is whited sepulchre, and instead Of
improving morals has donemore to des-
troy them than anything that can be
imagined. The pigs ear, the joint,th e
speak-easy, of course are run by law
breakers. Then the purchaser is. a
"particeps criminis". The law break
ing seller and the law breaking pur-
chaser are fellow criminals. The glut-
tonous manner of using liquor when
bought by law breaker, from a law
breaker, is well known,so the crime of
drunkenness in dry territory is added
to by the crime of selling and the crime
of buying. After all license is the only
mode of dealing with an article men
Will have regardless of the paid tenn
perance lecturer, the political moralist
and the gentlemen who live by pass
lug the hat. 1t is little strange that
Mr.. Strobe has sought this kind Of rep
| utatiOn at the Cannon's mouth. He is
large enough mentally not to, trail
along with so-called moral issues at
the call of the Anti-baloon Leaguers.
The world has existed many thousands
of years without s'State-wide. All
great nations are living without it,and
but for a certain paid element in Vir-
ginia who Mr.. Strobe would never
| trust to manage the State, indeed to
manage anything where execu i've
ability is needed, the issue would be as
helpless as a fish in an ash barrel. The
hypocracy of the agitators, and vapid-
ness of their claims become more and
more apparent every day. All they
want is the offices.
Mr.. Noel, the Repub llcan leader in
the Virginia Senate, voted for the
Statewide bill. Mr.. Noel no more
wanted that bill to pass than he want
ed to see Mr.. Fulwiler made marshal
for the Western District of Virginia.
He had to have some excuse for his
action, SO he put it on the ground that
he voted with Senator Strobe and the
Cannon forces because of the unfair
treatment, he says, they got. Some
excuse, we suppose, is better than
none, but knowing Mr.. Noel as we dc
we know this to be very lame excuse.
Noel seems to be lucky in getting on
the wrong side of every question, and
is a very tame leader.
| There have been many letters written
suggesting how to manage the Kings
Daughters Hospital. 1t is safe to say
the present mode will prevail. This is
not the age when women surrender
rights, or acknowledge the superiority
of men. In the efete East such may
be the case. Not, however, in the pro-
gressive West. Staunton is located in
the center of the progressive West.
