RAILWAYS

The first railway which carried pass engers was the Stockton & Darlington line, in England, which was complet- ed and opened kfor traffic eighty-nine years ago today, Sept 26, 1925. Regu- lar passenger traffic on the pioneer railroad was inaugurated the follow ing day. Edward Pease and George Stephenson constructed this line but, despite the connection with the pro- ject of the father of the locomotive, horses were first usaA to supply the motive power. Later Stephenson ex- experimented with fixed engines and locomotives, and his success with the latter caused him to recommend the locomotive system for adoption on the Liverpool & Manchester system, which was opened in 1880, and which was the first road on which the powers of the steam locomotive were fully establish ed The pioneer railroad was only eight miles in length, and was of little importance, but the Liverpool

WAR TAX BILL
 PASSES HOUSE


 Washington, Sept 26-The House by a vote of 234 to 135, with two members answering present passed yesterday the emergency revenue bill. which will add $1O5, ,00O, 900 ta the United States internal revenue income.
 Of the 1855 votes against the measure only eleven were cast by Democrats. The Democrats voting against the bill were Represen tatives OHair of Illin- ois;S Hobson of Alabama; Ragsdale of South Carolina; Sisson. Stephens and Witherspoon of Mississippi, Galloway of Texas; Church of California: Stew ems of New Hampshire; Thompson of Oklahoma and Wingo of Arkansas.
 Representative Copley, Progressive, of Illinois, voted with the Democrats, but there was no break in the Repub- lican ranks of unanimously negative votes.
 The vote on the bill was received without remarkable enthusiasm and immediately thereafter adjournment was taken. The debate, which began at noon, brought to the front some of the best speakers of both sides It attracted small public attention, however. The speech of Representa- tive Mann of Illinois was listened to with grave attention, as was also that of Representative Hull of Tennessee Democrat, author of the income tax law.
