ON NON-ALCOHOLIC BASIS

One OF the great impressments OF
the great war that is now going on in
Europe is the taboo put on alcoholic
drinks by the several nations engaged
In the conflict. nations that have al
ways held liberal views on the drink
question. The insistence on sober
fighters began with the German en-
peror's Introduction OF alcohol. fol-
lowed by the British commanders in
junction TO the soldiers departing for
France to abstain from all intoxicating
drinks. The Gar of Russia was quick
TO see the advantage OF having clear
headed soldiers, and al the beginning
OF hostilities stopped the sale OF vodk 4

severe penalties. But liberal France.

Listen TO what well known Parisia n
economist. Raphael Georges Levy. has
&c say in Figaro. the most conservative
of papers: We have already stopped
the SAFE of absinthe. Why halt on the
road? Il is only when favored by a
great current of enthusiasm and ma.

and for that reason IL stands in admi-
ration OF the feat OF the Boston base
ball club in coming from the very bot.
tom rung OF the ladder OF fame 20
the top, in a consistent advance from

has been the sensation in the history
OF the national pastime. As a cellar

the club had given no special evidence
OF team excellence. but its indomit.

COUNTY TICKET.
REVOLT ON SHIPPING BILL

Strong efforts are being put forth hy
the Democratic members of Congress
to secure an adjournment by October
IL. but 1t may not happen unless the
Democratic boilers agree to take up
the ship purchasing bill at an extra
session to be called by the President
for November IL. II is hard to under
stand the obstinacy OF the President
in attempting to force the bill through,
providing for a bond issue OF $50, 0OO,-
600 for ships for our foreign trade.
when he has been assured that there
IS no such scarcity OF merchant yes
sells as was at first surmised So
strong is the impression among he
House Democrats that this is true that
many OF them have openly avowed
their intention of opposing the meas
ure. Chairman Alexander. OF the
Merchant Marine Committee. from
whose committee the bill came. says
that the necessity for the government
financing merchant ships no longer ex-
lists. But none OF these threatening
attitudes move the President.
The dissenting Democrats. with
good reason, fear the political effect
OF such a measure. more especially on
account OF the nearness Of election.
The President, It is understood. is
willing TO abate his insistence to the
extent Of letting the matter go At
present. but that IL must be with the
assurance that the bill will be immedi.
ately considered at the proposed extra
session. But II these Directing Demo
Gratis see no use for the proposed
outlay for ships now, there certainly
will be no necessity for Il a month
hence. The entire shipping bill
scheme is offensive. as II would place
the government in the position OF com
peting with private enterprise. with
no advantage 10 the shipping public
Were this country absolutely without

would be entirely different. but such

AMENDM ENTS
Proposed to War Tax Bill In Senate.
One Eliminates Bank Tax and
Places Tax on Checks.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Sept. 30
Amendments to the war revenue bill
suggested and now being considered
by Democrats of the Senate finance
committee include one to eliminate
entirely the proposed tax OF two dol
lars a thousand on bank capital and
surplus. Following a suggestion yes
ierday that this assessment be re-
duced TO one dollar. Senator John
Sharp Williams. a member of the com
mittee. to-day introduced an amend.
ment in the Senate to strike out the
bank tax. Sentiment Is said to be
growing In favor of this action.
Other amendments to make up for
the deficiency that would be caused
by abandoning the bank tax and the
elimination of the tax OF two cents a
gallon on gasoline are as follows:
A tax OF two cents on all bank
checks. drafts. letters Of credit. etc. /:
tax OF ave cents gallon on rectified
WHISTLES. which IL II estimated would
yield about 5000. 900 revenue: an in
crease OF p cents a barrel in the pro-
posed $50 tax on beer. making a to-
tai levy Of Sl.55 a barrel. 10 yield a
total estimated revenue OF $50 600 900.
and tax Of 25 cents per horse power
on all passenger automobiles.
Chairman Simmons said tonight
there undoubtedly would be several
changes In the House bill. but that no
conclusions had been reached by the
committee.
