atiVe to the Milford
POStmaSterShip
NO EXPRESSION AS TO
PIERCE CONFIRMATION
Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL

Special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. TO-
Reliable information obtained here is
to the effect that United States Sena-
tor Henry A. DUPONT has made no
statement and given no interview
bearing on his attitude toward the
appointment of a postmaster in Mil
ford, Delaware.
A Washington dispatch, published
last Thursday, said:
Although the three members Of
Congress from Delaware have failed
to agree on an appointee for post
master at Milford, President Taft has
before him the name OF Edward
Pierce as the successor of Frank w.
Davis, whose term expired more than
a year ago. The name of Mr.. Pierce
has been sent to the President by
Senator Richardson, and although
Senator DUPONT and Representative
Heald refused to join in making the
recommendation Senator DUPONT has
stated that he will make no objection
to the confirmation II the name ever
reaches that point in the Senate. Mr..
Taft has not yet sent in the name"
That story was correct except that
part Of It which quoted Senator du-
Pont as having stated that he will
make no objection TO the confirmation
OF Mr. Pierce if his name should b.
sent to the Senate.

clared that the Carney woman was
present at the time of the shooting.

'There seems to be a general i'm

Therefore the taxing power OF all
governments rests primarily upon
military force.
"This being the case. the question
of whether taxes are just or unjust

Wherever the aid of the govern

amounts TO surrendering the taxing
power into private hands and to moth

at the disposal of the shrewdest men
to take by force part of the wealth
produced by the active workers.
1T is true that force rarely has
to be used, but that is only because
people know the utter impossibility
of resisting the law. which can be

The Poll Tax and the Voting Tax.
The poll tax is the most primitiy,
and obvious method of raising rev

IF a number of people were to emf

continent or island and had arrived
at a point where they found it desir

This would seem perfectly fair a

/ AS long as this was strictly true
no objection could be made to tn

But suppose some Of the peopl

Would it any longer be fair to ea
