Congressman James H. Hughes, Of
West Virginia, has mapped new method
of warfare on "boot-leggers" in his dis
trict. He has introduced bill prohibit
ing the Commissioner OF Internal Revenue
from issuing government licenses for the
sale of liquor in territory made dry under
State law. He followed this up with a
demand upon Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Cabell for list of licenses grant,
ed in the fifth district. Mr.. Cabell re-
fused the list and referred the West Viz
ginian to the Internal Revenue Collector
ofhis State. Mr.. Hughes intends to post
the list Of licenses, when secured, on the
door of the court-houses in each county.
81 want those who read to know who is
selling liquor in that county in violation
to State law" said Mr.. Hughes. "The
government licenses are not posted con-
spicuouSly in the holders places OF bust
ness, but intend 10 see that the people
know who they are"

When the kindeys are neglected or aous-

Bripht's disease which is really an advanc-

Perfect Confidence.
Shepherdstown People Have Good Rea'
son For Complete Reliance.

Do you know how
To find relief from backache;
To correct distressing urinary ills;
To assist weak kidneys?
Many people in this vicinity know the
way
Have used Doan's Kidneys Pills;
Have proved their worth in many tests.
Here's grateful testimony.
Major ]. o. Murray, retired newspaper
correspondent, pa W. Washington ST.,
Charles Town, w. Va, says: 'For a
long time suffered from kidney COM
plant and finally was induced TO try
Doan's Kidney Pills. They brought me
such great relief that do not hesitate TO
recommend them to other people SINH
larly afflicted -"
The above is not an isolated case. Mr..
Murray is only one of many in this vicin-
ity who have gratefully endorsed Doan's.
If your back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney remedy
ask distinctly for Doan's Kidney Pills,

A MOVEMENT has been started al
Charleston providing for comprehensive
system of goods roads for West Virginia.
The plans suggest the expenditure OF
s., OO0, 900 by the State. counties and mu-
nicipal corporations in the construction
of first class roads in every section OF the
State. One million is to be spent in a
macadamized road from Harpers Ferry
to Parkersburg; another million from the
Pennsylvania line to Bluefield; and three
millions for collateral lines to intersect
the above at various points. The Regis
ter very heartily favors every movement
for good roads, for we believe that the
money of the people can be spent in no
better way; and while the above scheme
may be bit too large for present execu-
tion, we cheerfully encourage its pro-
motors. We believe that there ought to
be definite plan in road building, and it
would be splendid thing to have these
two great highways traversing our State
from east to west and from north to south.
Once this is accomplished, it is certain
that the other good roads, the feeders to
the main line, would be constructed.
The Register favors still more COM
prehensive plan ofroad building, namely,
that the federal, State and local authori-
ties should work together for good roads.
If the United States Government would
pay one-third the cost of construction OF
first-class roads, the State another third
and the counties directly interested the re-
naming third, we could secure splen-
did system of highways and the division
of the expense would seriously affect
none. The general government can well
afford to pay its share, the State should
be proud to secure such improvements,
and the counties that would be directly
benefited would doubtless eagerly take
advantage of an opportunity to get mod
ern good roads at one third the cost.
On with the good roads movement!

WE rather agree with Congressman

clared that coat of tar and feathers ought
to be given that scoundrelly minister in
Michigan who married a iory-year-old
negro TO feeble minded white girl but
Is years OF age. There have recently
been too many outrageous cases OF mis-
cegenation in Illinois and other western

ence if the States are too degraded to
take action.

AFTER forty years of fighting, Congress
now has the power to levy an income
tax. The sixteenth amendment 10 the
Constitution of the United States, giving
Congress power to levy ard collect
direct tax on incomes, whether derived
from invested capital or business, has
been ratified by thirty eight States, and
all that is needed now is the passage OF
the necessary measures to put it in force.
Last week the West Virginia Legislature
voted to ratify the amendment. But one
more State was needed, and several Leg
islatures began to get busy, each being
anxious to cast the deciding vote. The
honor fell to Delaware, which ratified on
Monday, beating Wyoming by scant
two hours. New Mexico, followed
little later, making two more than the
necessary three-fourths majority. Sew
eral other States will doubtless add their
votes later.
Fifteen years ago Congress passed an
income tax law. II was pronounced un-
constitutional by The Supreme Court Of
the United States, five of the Judges
being against the measure and four de-
caring il to be constitutional. 1t was
believed then by many of the greatest
lawyers of the country that the court
erred in its decision, and now practically
everybody knows that il was wrong. II
is likely that Congress will enact the nee
essary legislation to make the amend
ment effective at the coming extra ses-
sion. The x will probably be levied
only upon incomes exceeding 5000
year. II is calculated that 500, 0O0. 900
year will be raised by this method-S3O,-
1000 from corporations and SIC, 0OO, 0OC
from private incomes of wealthy individ-
uals.
II is generally conceded that an income
tax is wise and proper form of taxation,
as it raises revenue from the large for
tunes of those who only too often evade
paying fair share of the public expense.
Nearly all the European countries have
an income tax, and it is efficacious in
keeping down swollen fortunes.
