Coal Leasing Bill
Seems Doomed
MEASURE is SENT BACK TO
COMMITTEES WHERE 1T
MAY STAY.

WASHINGTON, ID, C.. Oct. IL.
-Alaska's coal leasing bill seems
doomed to defeat and it is prob
able now that the measure Will
not be passed at this session OF
congress.
The bill came up in the senate
for final vote yesterday, and
after some argument pro and
con. point of order was raised,
which caused it to be sent back
to the Joint conference commit
tees for further discussion.
The enemies of the bill seem
determined to delay final action
until congress adjourns. On the
other hand, the supporters OF
the bill are doing everything in
their power to rush the legisla-
ton through. There is a gen
eral sentiment that the bill should
be passed as soon as possible,
owing TO the necessity of getting
some of the coal mined this win
ter for use by the government
by the time that the construc-
ton of the railroad is started.

Gardner, Mass.-The state colony
here has a modern Rip Van Wrinkle
who has been asleep for ten months.
He knows nothing of the present war
and physicians claim he may sleep for
years.
Alton, Okla.-An officer saw a man
with a heavy grip. Thinking the man
q bootlegger, the officer forced him to
open the case. As he did so about
a hundred snakes wriggled out. The
officer is, according to reports, still
shaky.
Bellaire, O.-Belmont county has
1000 applications for the 30 addi-
tional saloon licenses to be granted.
The great rush for licenses is due TO
the fact that West Virginia, right
across the way" is dry. Belmont
county was formerly dry but voted
wet at the last election in order to
take care of the West Virginia trade.
Riyerhead, Idaho-The only demo-
crat elected here at the recent election
was Andrew Prudent who won over
Charles H. Meller by two votes. After
the election it was found that the Of
fee to which he had been elected, that
of town game constable, had been
abolished more than two years.
jamestown, N. Y.-The authorities
here have decided to install and OPP
crate a municipal milk plant. They
figure on buying the milk for 4 cents
a quart and selling it for 6 cents. This
will mean an annual profit Of more
than $4,000.

WAR TAX BEGINS
New Tax Taxing Telephone Users

Denver, November 30.-The far
reaching effects Of the European war
will be felt in small way by the tel
ephone users, according to the an
nouncement made here today by the
United States Internal Revenue De-
partment. The new federal revenue
tax on telephone and telegraph mes
sages goes into effect December LIST
all over the country, and a govern
ment tax of one cent will be collected
for every message amounting to Is
cents or over.
Officials of the Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company,
operating in the seven mountain
states, have been busy for the past
month notifying exchanges in all
parts of the system of the manner
in which this tax is to be collected
and turned over to the government.
Notices have bene sent to each of
the 100000 subscribers in the system
and placards containing the provisions
of the new law are to be posted in
every pay station. According to the
law, all long distance messages
amounting to fifteen cents of over are
taxed one cent, whether from private
telephones or from public or pay
stations. Toll calls from private tel
ephones will be counted by the com
pany and taxed in a lump sum on the
monthly bill. Pay station customers
will be required to drop a penny in the
coin box of the telephone when thei.'
call is made. There will be no tax on
local messages where no toll charge is
made.
The effects of the new law will be
interesting in this western country,
where the number of pennies in cir
culation is proportionately small. Ac-
cordinR to officials of the United
States Mint in Denver, all pennies are
coined in Philadelphia and shipped
through the local mint and sub-treas-
ury for distribution. No shortage Of
pennies is anticipated, as the banks
throughout the countries have been
supplied in the last few weeks.
In some cases, according to offic-
ials Of the telephone company, the
cost of collecting the tax from public
pay stations will exceed the tax it.
self, but the new law is stringent and
requires the collection to be made
on every call.
