cost Of living.
Second-The new tariff does untaX a
lot of things you use A small frac-
ton of a cent was added by the old
tariff to nearly everything YOU eat,
wear and use This new law takes
off this small fraction OF a cent.
Third-You share the benefit OF this
fact: That eighty millions of dollars,
formerly paid by YOU and other con
sumers, will be raised by tax on in
comes of $4,000 and upward.
Fourth-Your principal necessities
have been put on the free list. They
are therefore, exempt from any fur.

the duty on all articles used by him,
including wagons, plows, harrows,
discs, fencing, cotton bagging, etc. BY
making farming less expensive, food
will, it is hoped, eventually be made
less costly.
SiXth-Sugar will be on the free list
in three years. 1t pays the present
tariff duties until next March and then
it begins paying a cent a pound until
1916, when it becomes free of duty.
Seventh-Other articles will have
the tax reduced on them nearly one
half At present they are taxed on
the basis of twenty to fifty per cent
of their valuation at the customs
houses. The present bill reduces this
to 26 per cent.
FIGHTH-For the benefit OF mother

has been reduced to 25 per cent; blan-
kets should be somewhat cheaper

said
"The friends Of prohibition are seri.
ously claiming that the increase in
the consumption of whisky as iudi-
Gated by the United States Commits
sioner's report is due to forced with
drawals of eightyear-old whisky from
bond II is true that some whisky
was forced out OF bond in 1878, but
this is the case every year.
The total amount OF whisky forced
out in the fiscal year 1913 was 2,7S0.-
OiQ gallons, taX-paid gauge The total
amount forced out in the fiscal year
1912 was 2,6o9,9O2 gallons, taX-paid
gauge The increase in forced with.
drawals was only 12o,&1S gallons.
Even the 'drys' must gradually dis
cover the joke in attempting to sN-
plain away a seven million gallon in
crease by an item of 12Ol3N gallons
There is absolutely no merit in
the talh about forced Withdrawals be
ing the cause OF the increase in the
AS of whisky
The use of beer increased nearly
one hundred million gallons in the last
fiscal year, but no beer was forced on
the market for the simple reason that
there is no bonded period for ferment
ed liquors.
The simple truth is that prohibi
tion causes people 10 buy in whole
sale quantities and to drink accord
ingly.
'Ir the object Of prohibiting the law.
ful manufacture and sale Of whisky
and beer is to Increase the consump
tion Of liquor, then the agitation in
