MrrINY ENDED

A mutiny In the Brazilian Navy
which became quite general and seri-
ously threatened the stability OF the
Government has just come 10 an
end by mutual concessions. There Is
now great rejoicing In Rio Janeiro
which for several days was threaten
ed with bombardment Amnesty was
granted the mutineers.
EXTENT OF OUR FOLLY
The present year. the high water
mark has been reached in the amount
OF income by the Government from
taxes on tobaccoes and liquors. AMI
consequently this Is the year OF
greatest production Of these articles.
The figures are as follows:
Distilled Spirits. 1863 600, 900 gallons.
Fermented liquors. 59.4S5.i11 bbls.
Cigars. 1900 100000
Cigarettes, 4, $50. 100000
Smoking tobacco. 400. 600 900 lbs
These figures show a vast increase
over last year Food for serious
thought.
HOW IT is WORKING
The corporation tax law that has
been in operation now for about a
year has produced S27 100000 in Re
venue. But the money received by
the government is not the greatest
benefit to be derived from the law.
The matter OF protection TO the peo-
pie thru publicity is perhaps the
thing that will commend the law the
most. Recently the people have been
swindled out OF millions by ire
sponsible corporations but hereafter
that may be avoided by simply writ
ing To the Treasury department to
find out the standing of the particu-
lar corporation.
DYING HARD
Rumors are still afloat that the
Patterson forces in Tennessee Will
not permit Governor-elect Hooper 10
take his seat. According to the Ten
nessee code the legislature must meet
in Joint session to canvass the vote
for governor and declare an cleo
ton. The rumored plan is that the
Patterson forces are to stay away
from this session, thus breaking the
quorum and making it impossible for
Mr.. Hooper TO take his seat legally.
In that event, IL is claimed that
Governor Patterson will continue 10
hold office and turn IL over at his
pleasure to the speaker of the Senate.
This begins to smack of South and
Central America.
SUPREME COURT VACANCIES
Washington reports are to the eff
feet that President Taft on the open
ing of Congress next Monday will
nominate Charles Evans Hughes, now
an associate justice, TO succeed the
late Chief Justice Fuller, Senator
Switzerland of Utah to succeed JUS
tice Hughes, and William S. Gum
mere of New Jersey to succeed Justice
Moody. There is but little doubt that
the first appointment will be made,
the senate, of course, concurring with
out objection or question. But a
