ANOTHER INDIAN HEROINE.

Out in the country through which
the Bird Woman a century ago guided
the first white explorers on their way
across the continent, another Indian
woman has just won distinction by a
deed which called for both bravery
and endurance. The prairies in the
southwestern part of the state were
on fire, the crops and homes were
in danger. Everywhere men were
fighting the flames. Smoke and heat
and dust brought the workers to the
point Of exhaustion, but there could
be no Stacking, for the flames must
be beaten out. An Indian woman,
known by the name Of Mrs. Cowboy,
determined to do what she could to
aid in the work, spent the day gallop-
ing with water to the parched men,
carrying the water in a can strapped
to her horses saddle.
The fire was at asst brought under
control, and credit Is due, o alone to
the men who fought long and we'll,
but to the Indian woman who aided
them in the task of carrying to them
the thing that of all others Just then
was most useful, water to drink.
What may be the facts about this
woman and her life we do not know.
She may be illiterate and uncouth.
Doubtless her educational advantages
have been few, and she would scarce
ly feel at home in the society which
considers itself cultured. But this
humble woman IN the galloping horse
carrying water to the fire fighters was
performing a work just as heroic in it's
way as many another piece of work
which has made the doer famous.

BELGIUM.

OF all the countries now involved in
the great European war, Belgium Is
clearly entitled to the sympathy OF the
world. Whatever may be the facts
with reference to other countries,
whoever was responsible for the war
and what motives underlay the act,
Belgium, at least, must be absolved
from all responsibility. She sought
neither to enlarge her domestic terri
tory nor to secure colonies beyond the
seas. She menaced no other country.
She sought no commercial advantage
save through the ordinary channels of
commerce., where all are at liberty to
compete, and on equal terms. She
sought only to be left alone, and to
work out her own destiny in her own
way. to develop her industrial life,
her education, and the social and po-
litical life of her people. Surely this
was a reasonable ambition.
Yet, because she lay in the high
way of marching armies, her territory
has become a vast battlefield. Because
belligerent nations were on either
side, she has been ground as between
the upper and neither milestone. Her
Notifications have been shattered, her
people driven destitute from their
homes. Her capital is in the possession
of foreigners and her chief seaport is
being bombarded by an enemy's guns.
Thousands of her soldiers lie buried
on the field of battle, and widows and
orphans have been made to sacrifice
their best loved on the altar of the
great. god Of war. With supreme
irony the inhabitants of Belgian cities
which have fallen into the hands of
the invaders have not only shared in
all this suffering, but have actually
been compelled to pay a tax to those
who have entered their land and de-
spoiled it.
Whatever may be the result of this
war, whatever indemnities may be
paid to surviving Belgians. no power
can remove from the land the effects
of this awful tragedy. That which
has been destroyed cannot be restored,
those who. have died cannot be
brought back. If no other thing can
bring about a great popular demand
that war shall cease, the fate of Bel
GUM should shock the world into
some appreciation of it's unutterable
horror.

REVENUE LAWS: 1912 AND 1918.

Washington, d. c., September. 1914.
Director William J. Harris of he
bureau of the census, department Of
commerce, announces that a bulletin
containing a digest of the laws relat-
ing t the ven systems of the
state and local governments has been
completed and is now ready for dis
tribution. The bulletin describes in
detail the different sources of revenue
in each state, including general prop
erty taxes, poll taxes, the inheritance
tar, corporation taxes, the income tax,
and business taxes, licenses. and fees.
and in the case of the general prop
property subject to such taxes, the
methods Of assessment. equalization,
and collection, and the statutory linn
ltations Of the rates Of such levies.
The laws relating to taxation. as
shown by the present bulletin, have
undergone great changes since 1902.
which was the date of the last report
on this subject issued by the bureau
of the census. Among the changes to
be noted has beer the creation Of nu-
merous tax commission in the var
ious states, having wide discretionary
powers over the administration of the
work Of local officials connected with
taxation, and full power over the as
sessment of the property of corpora
tons doing business in two or more
COMMITTEES Of the same state
A bulletin of this character ought
to be of great service to students of
taxation and revenue. And among
other things, the diversity Of method
which must be shown in it will be an
object lesson in the need for simpli-
acation of some of our government
practices. For one thing, comparison
by states and municipalities, in the
matter of taxation as in expenditure,
Is next to impossible because no two
communities conduct their affairs on
the same basis. A tax levy Of a GER
In one place and another in another,
because the basis of assessment differs
in the two places. Property which is
taxed in one community is, exempt in
another. One state has a general
property tax, and another classified its
property for purposes OF taxation.
Certain taxes are in some cases paid
directly into the state treasury, and
in others are paid to the county, city
or township. The whole thing is a
tumble, and the census bulletin. in
showing. in a measure, what sort of
tumble it is, ought to be a very use
full thing.

SOME OF WARS DEVELOPMENTS.

War, as a science, has undergone
many changes since the days when
men fought with axes, and there Is ev-
cry reason to believe that, if the
world does no come to it's senses and
discontinue war altogether, there will
be still other changes of the highest
importance in the near future.
Many military men have believed
for some time that the day of the fort
ress had departed. Port Arthur was
a very strongly fortified place, but the
Japanese captured it, burrowing their
way up the hillsides to 1t like so many
badgers. Liege was strongly fortified,
but Its forts were useless against the
big guns of the German army. Ma
muir fell in ven less time. Antwerp
10 surrounded by a double ring Of
forts, which. when they were built,
were supposed to be impregnable, yet
some Of these forts have been taken,
and there is every indication that the
Germans will force their way in. One
Advantage possessed by the attacking
party IL the fact That the fort is a
stationary object, with it's position def
tnttely known, while the position of
the siege guns may be concealed from
the defending force, for a time, at any
rate. and their position can be chang
cd. making the destruction Of the at
lacking batteries a very difficult thing.
Several experts are Of the opinion that
IN the future no attempt will be made
to fortify inland cities, because Of the
futility of the work.
There are many who believe that
the day of the big battleship is over.
Tho submarine has shown its ability
to put these monsters out Of the way
quickly and successfully. The three
British cruisers sunk a short time aro
by a German submarine or submar.
ines were comparatively old vessels,
but had they been the newest dread
naughts the result would have been
the same. The modern submarine can
traysl more than 1000 miles, and has
. surface speed Of more than fifteen
knots. and a submerged speed Of ten
knotssor better. Undoubtedly both the
radius OF action and the speed will be
$yastfy increased, so that a ieet of
these little vessels can cross an ocean,
sif need be. pick out their victims at
leisure. destroy them, and return
home. OF what use, then. will be the
stwenty million dollar battleship?

PARocHIAL GOSSIP suPPLANTED.

Much as can and must be said in
condemnation Of the war, there is no
need to let realization of its cost and
horror blind the observer to the few
facts, at least a little consolatory, that
careful search among It's consequences
an today discover.
Whoever would has been able to
note ever since the great struggle in
Europe began, a change, which was
also an elevation, in the quality Of
most conversations he hears-a
change and elevation not less easily
remarked in what is written than in
what is said. The matters on which
so nearly all Of public interest con.
centrates are. indeed. at once terrible
and larnentable. but there is a large
ness about them hat has a compen-
satory influence and is exercising in
Vulnerable minds on things more i'm
portant than neighborhood gossip.
Even the partisan politician and the
devotees Of baseball-probably the
W classes in our population whose
sense Of relative values is less accu.
rate than hat Of any others-now &C.
casionally think and talk in a way
that shows some relaxing Of their pit
liable obsession by the trivial.
or course. not all of the war talk
is intelligent. but most of it shows
something Of both information and
comprehension. and there is a general
desire-a desire often gratified. for
tunately-to hear or read the opinions
nj arguments Of men who speak
with authority derived from expert.
ence and study.
Discussion of the war, moreover
tests and develops our capacity ia
credit the upholders of views liver
gent from our own with intentions
and motives AZ worthy as ours. and
to conduct a debate on deeply moving
topics with moderation Of speech and
courtesy Of manner. This can be done
