Blast on Bugle
Starts War Cry

War excitement ran high at the White
House and the War Department for
ten minutes this morning. Then IT sub
sided, everybody laughed and went back
to work.
1t was all brought about by an in
spring blast from a bugle. Nobody
knew Just what the bugle call was. but
all suspected that it was the command
to charge. AS this tocsin rang out upon
the morning air, clerks, bureau heads,
and uniformed members of the general
staff rushed to doors and windows to
see the fight.
But It was not a hostile demonstra-
ton. on the contrary, the bugle call
came from an emissary of peace. lie
lad simply seized on this martial de-
vice to attract attention, and he at
traCted it.
B. F. Adams was the man. He is a
Socialist. He drives ''one hoss" rig.
Behind the horse is a rickety sort of a
wagon, and on the wagon is big box.
On the sides of the box are inscriptions
"WifTHDRAW wi rfffeIS Il v"TIif The TROOPS FROM
THE MEXICAN BORDER: THE
WORLD is OUR. COUNTRY. ALL
MEN ARE BROTHERS. DOWN WITH
on the rear of the upright box is a
proclamation of the Socialist marty
printed in pamphlet form, protesting
against the war with Mexico. Another
plaCard reads:
WAR is HE'LL. DOWN WITH THE
WAR. READ UP ON SOCIALISM"
When the Socialist drove down Exec
utive avenue he waited until he was op-
nosite the White House offices to give
the first blast from his bugle.
with that there was a rush of war
correspondents, clerks from the State,
War, and Navy building, clerks from the
Executive Offices to the doors and win
dovs Adams stopped for a minute to
explain that he was against hostilities
OF any kind, and wanted the whole city
to know it.
Then as the crowd gathered around
his conveyance ii occurred suddenly TO
him that the police might get him If
he caused any undue excitement. When
that thought struck him he darted of,
giving one more bugle call as ne went.

CLUB FOR COMBINES
IN DECISION ON TAX
Ruling by Supreme Court Gives Government Best of
Weapons for Regulation of Great Cor
porationS.
BY JOHN SNURE.

strictive powers of taxation If neces-
sary.
One of the effects Of the corporation
tax decision is likely to be to cause
large number OF the small corporations
to wind up their affairs. 1t Is likely
that the business of a good many OF
the small corporations will be done
hereafter by individuals and firms. This
tendency already is noticeable. The
number Of corporations paying the tax
last tear was about 246,001. They had a
capital of more than $4,000, 10000 and
deDt OF about $31 900, ,OOO, 900, with net
earnings of about S3,125, 100000. Five or
six years ago the estimated wealth or
the country was about Sl07, ,0Oo. 100000.
II is apparent that, even allowing for
enormous part of the wealth of the land
Is in the hands of corporations. The
drift TO the corporate method of doing
business has been rapid. 1t has been
easy to incorporate. and until now 1t
has cost little. But with the corpora
ton tax in full force there are signs the
tendency Will be checked.
Income Tax Safe.
When the corporation tax law was
being tested before the Supreme Court,
there was talk that a result of the de-
cision might be to reverse in effect the
decision of the Supreme Court in the
income tax, as given in the famous
Pollock case. That case in effect held
the income tax law of 1894 invalid.
The recent decision in the corporation
tax case does not reverse the finding
in the Pollock case. This is true be-
cause the court took the ground the
corporation tax was a tax on the doing
of business in corporate form, not an
income tax. The result is that the
much -mooted question of whether the
Supreme Court would reverse itself if it
had a chance on the income tax decision
on the law of 1894, Is still unsolved. The
court did not have to cross that bridge,
and, as usually happens in such cir
cumstances, 1t did not try to cross it.

CONSERVATION KILLING
 ALASKA, SAYS EDISON

That conservation, as now being applied to Alaska, is hurting the country instead of helping it's ds- velopment, is the opinion of ]. A. Edson, president of the Kansas City Southern railway, who has just re- gently returned to Kansas City, after having spent the greater part of the summer in Southwestern Alaska.
 "The least that one can say" MT. Edson said recently, lis the pres ent brand of conservation is retard- ing the growth of that country. and preventing it's development. Alaska. l am told, is as large as one-third of the territory of the United States west of the Mississippi river. Ten years ago there were 100000 people there. Now there are less than 40,- 900. The people are becoming dis gusted and are leaving the country as fast as they can.
 Fuel is one of the principal neces- sities of life in that country. Yet the citizens are not allowed to cut trees, nor to take coal out of the ground. They are importing oil from the Pacific Coast states. Besides this
