The present president Of these United States
Is an educated and cultivated man. He has
been president OF a great college and has taken
degrees and diplomas and written books. The

him. That Is because they are given to believe
that the fundamentals and foundations OF his
education. acquired from the Presbyterian
preacher. his father before he could read or
went to school or college, the same they
have. They are loyalty and love to parents, to
country and church. and certain rugged, distinct
principles OF right and wrong. based chiefly on
the ten commandments Because the great delv-

A FRIEND OF ECONOMY.

There Is much to be said for the suggestion
that the exemption under the income tax bill
be reduced from $4,000 to $4,000, aside from
the increased revenue dervable. II more money
be needed than will be supplied by the tax
as 1t stands. the argument for laying the
tax upon all incomes above $4,000 instead of
only upon those above $4,000 is all but conclu-
sive provided of course, that the money is to
be properly spent. To clnch the argument II is
only necessary to point out that the lower the
exemption the more likely 1t is that the money
derived from the tax will Re properly spent
This Is true for this reason:
BY taxing tbs greater part o. the people of the
country they will be given greater interest
in the government and ~in have more reason
to watch those who spend the money
One cause for the extravaganza which has
featured nearly every session. of congress has
been the lack OF interest shown by the people
back home in the expenditures. so long as they
received their share Of the pork barrel The
tariff tax is indirect and under 1t the people
DO not notice the amount of the taxes imposed
as they would under direct tax like that on
incomes, Congressman. therefore, have paid
little attention to how much was spent and
great attention to where 1t was spent If spent
in their districts they made no objections TO the
expenditures in other districts and the sum ex.
pended mounted higher and higher with each
session or congress The same will be true under
a direct tax which affects only small pro.
portion of the whole people Make the tax
apply to the ma ority and the majority will
not rest obivious to extravaganza as at pres.
emit
1t is not material what the rate OF taxation
on incomes under $4,000 is, but 1t is material
that there be some taxation. With ALL or nearly
all, the people helping to pay the fiddler and
knowing To cent exactly how much they are
paying the fddlers salary will not be above a
figure. The congHessman's constitu-
ents will not then be blinded by the appropria-
tons given his district to the enormity of the sum
total spent. He knows now that he has to pay
for all this, but he pays indirectly and 1t is
not called SO sharply to his attention ~ It will
be when he has to run his hand into his pocket
and fork over to tar collector certain
amount
For these reasons It appears certain that with

Hint to Advertisers.

The difference between the business Of the
man who uses printers ink and the one VINO
doesn't is easily discernible. Every up-to- date
merchant in the country today advertises
through one or more newspapers. and the fact
that this continues year after year Is ample
proof that advertising pays. Newspaper adver-
Using is the best and the cheapest considering
the results obtained therefrom and no merchant
is so we'll fixed that he can afford to dispense
with 1t. Such advertising reaches the Duyins
class of people in the community and reaches
them in their homes. The value OF advertising
ia too apparent to really need much SAID In
it's favor Fredericksburg Free Lance

JURY RETU rms
mot GUILTY
VERDICT /.

Returning verdict of not guilty. the
jury in the W. F. Hagemann murder
case filed into the u. s. district court
yesterday afternoon at twelve minutes
past five, having been out two hours
| and five minutes. The scene in the
courtroom was a most dramatic one
Made apprehensiye by the length of,
time in which the jurors had deliber-
ated, Hagemann could scarcely ; con-
troll himself as he rose to receive sem
tence. As Judge Clemens proclaimed
him free man, he rushed impetuous-
ly to the jury-box and shook hands
with the twelve men as they filed out.
The case was one of the most holly
contested in the history of the court,
say those in position to know The
fact that over half hundred witnesses
were called and that there were more
than dozen impeachments gives some
idea of the way in which the case was
fought out.
Great stress was laid by the defense
upon the excellent character of Hage-|
mann as contrasted to the bullying,
hcctoring character of the man he
shot. The jury's verdict was undoubt-
eddy Influenced to a large extent by
the favorable impression made by the
accused man in the witness chair.
Those who followed the trial closely
agree that Assistant U. S. District At
torney Biting in summing up yester-
day made one of the most forcefuI APP
peals ever made to local jury. Judge
Clemons's charge to the jury was,
straightforward, succinct and fair in
every particular, was the comment
made by those in court at the time.
Hagemann will join his company at
Schofield Barracks this morning.

ORIENT nus J
6-SEWER CONNECTION In |
FRONT OF EACH LOT

the sum of 1915 has been lost to the
territory in fees, we cannot, in view
of the testimony adduced before us,
find that said loss is due to the har-
Dor master being un1nindful and
neglectfu1 of his duties, but to the
direct act of those responsible for his
appointment.
From the testimony of two master
mariners and the admission of Mr..
Foster himself, we find that his eye
sight is so impaired that he is I'M
able to- distinguish objects at rea-
sonable distance, and that it is neces-
safy for him to use binoculars, or
field glasses to assist him in moving
and docking vessels. This matter, in
the opinion of your committee, is of
the most vital Importance, for if the
duties of the harbor master are to be
carried out according to the terms
of the statute, then it is absolutely
