Notes From the National Capital
Absolutely Pure

The house of representatives passed a bill to take the tariff from sugar and raise an equal amount of revenue through an excise tax upon incomes over five thousand dollars annually. It may also pass the senate.
 Some ladies have asked federal legislation for woman suffrage. A bill has been introduced iii the senate for primary elections. Amid paternalistic innovations advocated by the postal department, many have forgotten that the constitu- ton reserves any rights to states.
 A writer contended that he must have parcels post because he paid SIP to express COW from Minne- apolis to Phoenix, Arizona. Some advocates want to mail threshing machines.
 Large expenditures now for the presidential nomination of Cover nor Wilson have caused friends of other candidates to ask the source of supply.
 Congressman Hill, of Connecti- cut, says: 'If parcels post be es- tablished, the yearly deficit on that would be $15O,OOO,OOO. Yet the advocates of parcels post will not compromise. They don't want tc experiment., they want to go the
 limit.
 Mir. Norman H. Johnson, editor Merchants Journal and Commerce
 of Lynchburg, Va, has addressed ISouthern Chamber of Commerce
 etc., charging that plans are being made for colossal trust of retai
 mail order houses, to control prices
 of labor, raw material and finished
 products, if parcels post be inaugu
 rated. MT. Johnson says the house
 of J. P. Morgan & Co. is in it. Af ter he addressed a farmers insti ltute in North Carolina, the mem
 bers passed resolutions opposing lparcels post.
