TAMMANY MEN IN LONDON
Declare Party Has Not Been
Hurt by the Cohalan Case.
(By CaoIe to The Tribune. J

London. July 19.-The Cecil lobby
looked like a meeting OF Tammany Hall
yesterday morning. for a party of
braves, including Justice John J. De-
lany Judge Thomas +. McAvoy.
Thomas +. Smith, William p. Rooney
and Theodore w. Delany sat about In
close converse. II Is said. however. that
they are not endeavoring To introduce
the tiger into England and are merely
on pleasure trip. They landed from
the Cedric a fortnight ago and have
been TO Ireland, where. by the way,
they saw Richard Croker
He gave no political advice" said
Judge Delany, and. indeed, did not
talk politics and only showed us his
farm. We are accompanying Smith.
who is on his first trip. and are trying
to show him all the sights. We are
going on the Continent soon."
The Tammany men said that the Or
ganization was never in better share
than now and declared emphatically
that the party had not been hurt by the
Cohalan affair. for he had done nothing
wrong and the legislative action was a
complete and sincere vindlcation
When asked about New York's Gov
ernor they said:
oh the Sulzer bottle is cracked now.
We must say. however, the breach of
promise suit that has been raked up
against him Is mean attack. and 1t is
u shame that it should be brought up"

Harvests OF $4,000. DOC. 600.

Crops this year will add some 80.
000,000,000 to the wealth Of the nation.
This sum approximates the largest
total ever realized for products OF the
soil. Corn, although short some $780,
100000 bushels compared with the
yield last year, is worth $200,0OO,O00
more than the bumper crop of 1912.
Wheat, too, has a larger money value
than ever before. The same is true OF
cotton, despite the reduced yield in
the Southeast due to lack OF moisture.
These estimates are based on sta
tistics Of the Department OF Agricul-
ture, and as that department is noted
for conservatism in estimating yields,

turns are in the total value of crops
will be upward OF $4,000, 100000.

Automatic Professor,

The automatic professor Is a me
chanical means Of teaching language
which has just been introduced and
which promises to become favorite
because Of the ease and convenience
with which 1t enables one to acquire
a language. The device consists Of
combination Of the photograph with
a piece Of mechanism which operates
reel on which are printed words
and sentences so that the student is
enabled to see the word at the same
time that he hears 1t. The phono,
graph alone has already been utilized
for the teaching of language with
some success, but the efficacy OF the
new combination is much greater and
the student acquires a greater famil.

and spoken, In less time. 1t is also
applicable to elementary instruction

DISSERTATION ON THE INCOME
All Interested In the Subject Which

Fashion.

Incomes are now being taxed. It is
therefore desirable that something
should be known about them. An In
come is anything which you cannot
live upon expressed in terms of lawful
money. Lawful money is anything
which will be accepted by the mem
bers Of state legislature or a police
captain or your wife. Incomes were
created for two purposes: to lie about
and to live beyond. Many people who
Will not have to pay any are COM
planning to their friends and neigh
bors about the way they are oppressed
by the income tax. This is one Of
those natural phenomena which no
scientist has been able to explain.
Incomes vary in size according to
how many people have worked for you
In the past or are working for you at
present. No income is without honor
somewhere, except in the family it is
vainly attempting to support. Here
it Is generally despised and looked
down upon.
An income tax is an effort on the
part of the government to make you
feel that you are wealthy. Also to
support the government in its main
business in life, namely, living beyond
its income.
The government, which receives q
larger income than any one else,
should be taxed upon it. The proceeds
might go toward relieving millionaires
In distress.

company it keeps.-Life.
