There is a great deal of complaint
and criticism Of the democratic
powers that be at Washington for
failure to furnish the stamps requir-
ed to be put on various kinds of in
struments and goods by the war tax
measure enacted by the last congress.
AS no. stamps were obtainable on
Dec. l, when the law went into effect
public business all over the country
was more or less Inconvenience or
delayed. No instruments were plac-
ed on record in the register of deeds
office yesterday nor today, because
the stamps are lacking, and ner-
chants who had goods that required
stamp to be attached before sale,
were in a quandary as to what to do,
as the penalty for violating is heavy.
Most of them made the sales, how
ever, and kept a record thereof trust
ing that permission will be given to
procure the stamps later and have
them destroyed. Advices from
washington now received, state that
no criminal prosecutions will be made
In cases where there. is no intentional
violation Of the law and all defects
remedied as soon as the stamps may
be procured. The muddle is due in
great measure to the lack of expert
ences of the democrats in administer

News from the European war has
been Somewhat n1eager this week.
but evidently the huge armies are en-
gagged in a tremend 1ns death grabble
on both the eastern and western bat
tie fronts. That the Germans will
make a supreme effort soon to reach
Calais is quite certain and tl,at i1,o--
will succeed is also quite possible
judging from their determination
and past successes in this war. On
the eastern arena the Russian often
sive has been checked by Won Hin
denberg's daring strategic advance
toward Warsaw. Terrible fighting,
has been going on on this field and the
losses bn both sides are undoubtedly
very heavy. On the sea nothing
startling has happened since the Sc
cond British battleship, the Bulwark
was sunk. That the German fleet,
when it gets good and ready, will
come out and try conclusions with
the British armada, is an event like
ly to happen in the near future.
