HOW UNCLE SAM SPENDS
YOUR INCOME TAX DOLLAR.

The American Magazine sent Ray
Stannard Baker to Washington TO trace
your income tax dollar and report pen
ny for penny exactly how Uncle Sam
spends it. The result of his investiga-
ton appears in the August number.
Under the indirect method of taxation,
by which we still continue to raise
most Of our revenues. Few people felt
any concern as to what the govern
ment spent, but with direct tax like
the income tax several hundred thou
sand Americans will feel this year, for
the first time, just what 1t means to
help buy warships and pay for unneces
sary post offices. Following is part Of
Mr. Bakers report:
1.-THE very first thing that struck me,
and struck hard, was the fact that, al
though we have had no great war in
fifty years land only little one six
teen years ago. over sixty cents of
every dollar that Uncle Sam collects
from you and me directly or Indirect

ing continuing expenses of past wars
pensions
II think that few people realize what
this means-in a nation which consid-
ers itself peculiarly devoted to peace.
Sixty three per cent to the Army,
Navy and pensions, and only thirty
seven per cent to pay all the other vast
and useful purposes of the Government.

posterous sinking fund--required by
law, but never provided in. fact. This
thirty-seven per cent only is available

machinery Of civil government-Con-
gress, Executive, Courts, and the diplo-
matte and consular service

all purposes with the exceptions above
stated reaches the vast sum of $740,-

ITEMS OF NEWS.
100000 in Coupons Redeemed.

$3OO,OOO in Coupons Hedeemed.
Realizing that there are many yet
outstanding, Judge Lttlepage of the
Kanawha county Circuit Court has eX-
tended the time limit for the redemp-
ton of Chesapeake & Ohio excess fare
coupons until July 81. According to
the decree of the court the commission
appointed to audit these coupons was
to have been dissolved on July /, but
1t was decided at the last minute to ex-
tend the time.
Nearly twenty-five Thousand of these
claims have been paid by the commits
sion after a years work, and many
more were readjusted, according to a
report compiled by General Oxley
An expenditure of $306,414.75 of the
money of the Chesapeake & Ohio rail-
way company was required to pay off
the various claims, which represented
2,037, PIG coupons.
When II Is considered that more than
two million coupons have been handled
in the way of listing checking and aud
iting some idea can be had of the enor-
nous amount of work which developed
upon the members of the commission
and their employees in the redemption
of the coupons.
All claims We're receipted for put in
to packets numbered and filed with the
name of claimant, record number post
office address, and the amount due en-
tered on the record.
All vouchers were listed with the rec
ord number. name of payee and the
amount. The name under which they
were mailed to claimants and the
amount paid out were entered upon the
books of the commission and charged
to the funds on deposit in the Citizens
National, the Charleston Bank. and the
Elk Banking Company, all of Charles
ton It was necessary for the commits
sioners to keep separate accounts with
each bank in which the funds of the
Chesapeake & Ohio company had been
deposited.
The clerical force of the commission
numbered nearly one hundred during
the first few months, then 1t was reduc-
ed from time to time until only eleven
clerks are now retained. 1t will re-
quire a few weeks more for this force
to wind up the affairs of the commits
sion.
The S306,414.75 paid out by the COM
mission represents excess fare of one
cent mile paid by patrons Of the C.
& o. road in consequence of restrain
ing order issued by 8. c. Burdette, then
judge of the Kanawha Circuit court,
against the State Of West Virginia,
preventing the application of the two
cent rate law as enacted by the legis-
lature.
The constitutionality of the law was
decided by the supreme court of the
United States last year. whereupon S.
D. Lttlepage, present judge of the
Kanawha Circuit Court, created the
special commission to pay off the
claims of those patrons of the road who
held rebate coupons. The commission
began work last August.

West Virginia Coming to Front.

There still remain in West Virginia,
as in other states, old time mines with
antiquated methods, but those who see
the new West Virginia realize that in
a few years there will be few fields bet
ter developed, and few where more care
is takn to provide favorable living con-
ditions. 't'
In no small degree it is creditable
to the West Virginia operators that
two important amelicrative movements
haxe found in that state their active
support. One of these is the closing Of
the saloons through the length and
breadth of the state. This improvement
became operative on the first day Of
July, and has the approval of the mine
owners. Another need of the industry
which the West Virginia operators
have cheerfully met is the liability law.
Some of the corporation chiefs in 9TH
states, who have been disposed to re-
gard West Virginia coal companies as
lacking in any interest in their miners,
will recognize in this law legislation Of
a kind which they, for the most part
have vigorously fought.
In fact decency and thrift are bid
for sedulcusly in these two good meas
ures, and there is little doubt that If
s!st that the anti-saloon law be kept,
West Virginia will soon lead it's neigh
Dor states not only in per capita earn
ings but in per capita savings and in
dividual character"

Industrial War Probable.

That Industrial warfare similar to
that which ragged last year and the
year before on Paint and Cabin creeks
in the Kanawha mining district may
again break out in West Virginia Is
intimated by those in touch with the
situation and the further hint is that
the scene Of strife is to be Logan
county. the fields toward which the
union organizers are exected to turn
their attention next. 1t is said that the
organization Of the Logan field will be
forced by unseen hands. probably d.
rected by the operators in the fields
which have already been organized and
which find themselves in difficulty in
he matter Of competing with the
elghboring fields which are not or
ennized. The operators in the unorgan-
red se'de ere aware OF the movement
which Is nepr md are preparing for a
resIstnrce no less bitter thar that
which married the strike in Kanawha.

judge Leftwiek Nominated.

Judge Everett Leftwich, of this city,
was nominated by the Progressives
Saturday at WEIGH to represent this
district in the State Senate. The Judge
is thoroughly posted as to the politics
of the State and will bring out some
new ideas in his campaign, which he
says he will make in every county of
the district. That he is an advanced
thinker, does not have to be stated by
US. He thinks for himself and has the
courage to express his opinion. He is
emphatically against both the old par
ties and will make a lively campaign
on the hustings when he opens at the
proper time. OF course he is not antic-
ipating election, but is playing his
cards for future results.
