More Taxes.

There can be no doubt that the
/ European war will have a blight
/ ing eject upon the revenues of the
/ United States. Outside of the Postal
Service the custom houses provide
nearly one half Of the Treasury's
receipts. With q our foreign COM
merce interrupted. tariff taxes must
be made for funds.
High takers we have always with
us, and they are buster to-day than
the machine guns of Belgium and
Germany. To meet the situation
they propose new and burdensome
levies upon tea and coffee and the
vexations use of stamps. Because a
disarrangement of trade that prob
ably will be only temporary has
arisen. they are eager to fasten upon
people at peace burdens which
never have been thought of except
as measures of war.
In the nature of things, the ex-
listing difficulties cannot last. Eth
er Great Britain and France COM
bined will clear the seas and open
up trade, or Germany will do so.
One or the other of these mighty
forces must soon gain the mastery,
and in either event way will be
found to restore the ocean channels
to American commerce. The very
necessities of continent in arms
will give a wonderful impetus to
our exports and in due season en-
rich us with imports greater than
ever before.
Our revenue shortage is for the
moment only. 1t is an inconvenience,
but it ought not to be made a calam-
ity. The Treasury should be supplied
by bond sales, which will take care
of themselves. Taxes needlessly i'm
posed at this time will last for years
after the shortage now forseen shall
have passed away, and they will
beget extravaganza, speculation and
error.

Faithful Dying Dog.

Greedy. Col. Aug. 12.-Dragging
himself into the house with a note
for his mistress. Mrs. John F. Red
man, Col. Bunch, thoroughbred
st. Charles spaniel, looned pitifully
up into her face, sank into a heap on
the floor and died from poison that
had been fed to him in some mys-
ferrous manner. The note was from
Mr.. Redman, clerk of the county
court, and the message related to
home affairs.
Col. Bunch was taught to carry
notes in his collar when he was a
puppy, and all that was necessary
for either his master or mistress to
do to get a note delivered was to
slip it under his collar and tell him
to go.
Col. Bunch never disappointed his
owners, and when he was given
what was his final message to de-
liver took more than an hour to
traverse the seven blocks from the
court house to the Redman home.

WAR TAX In u. 5.
Will Be ASSESSED
Democrats Say Falling Off In
Import Duties Makes 1t
Necessary.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Adminis-
tration leaders have concluded that
additional revenue legislation even
tually will be needed to fill the gap
in the Government Golfers caused
by loss of revenue on imports cut
off by the European war. Majority
Leader Underwood, of the House,
said Tuesday he would confer with
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
when the latter returns to Washing
ton Thursday, concerning plans and
the amounts necessary to be raised.
The ways and Means Committee,
which has charge of all revenue
legislation, already has called upon
the Treasury Department for a de-
tailed statement of the condition of
the Treasury and the situation as to
reduced import taxes. 1t was esti-
mated to-day that legislation would
be framed which would contemplate
a war tax" of approximately $780,
100000. While no definite plans
have been determined it is expected
that the tax will take the shape of a
stamp impost on malt and spiritu-
Gus liquors, although an increased
import on tea and coffee may be
considered. rs-o'-
In order that revenue legislation
might have the right of way when
ever it becomes necessary the House
Tuesday wrote into a special rule
giving conservation legislation prec-
edepce. a clause exempting revenue
legislation. The Republicans in the
House have notified Mr.. Underwood
that while they reserve the right to
criticise any revenue legislation Of
fered they will not resort to obstruc-
tive tactics to prevent its passage in
an emergency.

Hidden Virtues.

Apropos of the discussion on
George w. Perkins and the Harves-
ter Trust, Representative Quinn
said:
"If George w. is to be believed,
his trust is of a goodness such as
is scarcely seen on this poor earth of
ours. The trust, like old Wash White
undoubtedly has hidden virtues.
"Old Washington White and young
Calhoun Clay entered, you know, a
dancing competition. But age was
against Wash, and his boots. pair
of cowhides six or seven sizes too
large, were against him, too. The
prize was awarded to the younger
man.
'Look-a-yere, Misto Empire,
Uncle Wash growled, 'whaffor yo'
give de prize toe him?"
." 'Kase he done mo- beats n yo'

"'GO long, man. said Uncle
Wash, 1 done a lot O. steps in desc

DENVER LADIES rAILoRs ACTIVE.
Equalizing Conditions in Various Shops;
to Stop Piece Work.

The Denver correspondent OF the
Ladies' Garment Worker has this to
say of the local situation:
''This local is a compact, small body
of men, most OF them department store
workers, and shop troubles are rare.
There are shops in Denver where the
tailors, though members OF the union,
do not yet work on the week-work sys-
tenn, which is the requirement OF union
conditions in the town. BY working
piece work they earn much less. while
working longer hours. Naturally the
system is fraugbt with danger to the
better shops.
THE union contemplates campaign
for equalizing conditions in the trade,
which may mean a strike in few
places. It is TO be hoped the employers
will court peaceful solution of the
problem for their own sake. The Den
yer ladies' tailors are determined to
achieve in their town what other work
ers have achieved in other places, name
ly. equal conditions for equal work in
all the shops"
