INCOME TAX is PROPOSED.

Washington, Feb. "a general in
come tax will be levied by congress
during the special session to be called
BY President Wilson for revision Of
the tariff.
Senator Norris Brown of Nebraska,
father of the resolution for consti-
tutional amendment, legalizing an in.
Gomez tax, notified the senate today
that more than a sufficient number
ct states have ratified the amend
ment and that the principal is now a
part of the organic law of the coun-
Try.
Representative Cordell Hull of Ten
nessee of the ways and means CON-
mittee, authority on the income tax,
estimated that a one per cent tax
levied on incomes exceeding $4,000
will return a revenue of nearly $780,
100000 a. year, Mr.. Hull pointed out
that with levy of the income tax,
there must come repeal of the cor
poratiOn income tax, or there will be
Z q double taxation.
Free sugar is proposed and amend
ment of this tax will cut the revenue
another 100000.
The income tax will run with the
tariff duties, but it will be used as an
equalizer for treasury receipts. Pos
seSsing flexibility, it can be graded
up and down without difficulty.
The Democratic tariff measures in
the house will act on the assumption
that their free sugar bill will pass the
senate.
SenGtor Simmons, who will direct
the tariff fight in the senate indicat-
ed today his doubt that a free sugar
bill can pass that body. But four
Democratic senators, from Louisiana
and Colorado, are not expected to
support the bill.
The republican progressive senators
are not favorable to free sugar. No
attempt has been made by the ways
and means committee to frame an in.
come tax, although members have
been working for the bill.
1t may be some weeks before con-
gress shall get from the states off
cial notice. that the constitutional
amendment has been ratified by the
necessary three-fourths of states. De-
lay may occur by giving notice.

Mrs. Bright then told of the ad-

and state organizations, and voiced
the very beautiful sentiment that
mothers must mother all children and
hot just their own, after which she
thanked Mrs. Langworthy and Miss
Whitman for putting the kibosh on
any public discussion of things
which should be talked over quietly"
and closed the meeting.
The reporter lowered in the neigh
borhood of Miss Dunn in the hope
that Miss Whitman might fulfill her
promise of discussing Miss Dunn's
accusation of Juvenile Court traffic
in children and Julius Rosenwald's
philanthrophy for the furtherance of
the same cause, but Miss Whitman
remained very busy with friends until
Miss Dunn left the building with her
questions unanswered.

/. Who could she be-? Who was Miss
Lonesome, who was seeking a hus-
band in this brazen manner? The
life of Reginald P Sherman was
made miserable. His telephone rang
necessarily. Mr. Sherman admitted
that he knew who Miss Lonesome
was, all right, but he wouldn't tell.
Then came reporters from New
York and they besought Mr.. Sher-
man to put them wise" to Miss
Lonesome. Nothing doing. But they
wrote pieces for their papers, any
way.
Then the answers really began to
come to Miss Lonesome. The Rye
mail carrier had to make special
trips to the Courier office.
One persistent reporter finally got
an interview with Miss Lonesome
actually talked with her-but he
doesn't know who she is. Editor
Sherman made the reporter go out
and stand on the sidewalk while he
got Miss Lonesome on the telephone.
Then the reporter came in and talked
to her. He says she had a sweet
voice. She said to him:
81 think a woman ought to be al
lowed to seek husband in this man
ner, if she pleases, without ali this
fuss. I've had over 500 offers. 1
have answered three-one from Chi
cago, one from Butte and one from
Los Angeles. The man in Los An
geles is a doctor. l have had two
letters from him. They we're sensi-
BILE and yet full of love and tender
ness. l think he will be the man."
So, if Los Angeles keeps its eyes
open, it may find out who Miss Lone
some is before Rye does.

HN1ONE- kNOW mI00 IONESOME
OF THE TOWN OF RYE?
New York, Oct. 30.-Who is Miss
Lonesome of Rye2
Nobody knows but Reginald P.
Sherman, and he won't tell.
Reginald P. Sherman is editor of
the Rye Courier, in which weekly
publication there recently appeared
the following advertisement:
HUSBAND WANTED.
Wanted BY a fair mot fat, nor
yet forty gentlewoman, with a large
tract of land not far from Port Ches-
ter, an unselfish, decent, self-support-
ing man for husband; would prefer
a good natural fool to crank; no
f1irts nor elderly men need apply.
Address Lonesome, care Rye Cour-
ier."
The day that advertisement ap-
peared the good, old village of Rye
just about stood on its head. The
excitement spread up and down the
shore of Long Island sound. The
folks at Port Chester, naturally, were
quite wrought up, the name of their
bailiwick appearing so prominently in
the advertisement.
