Long Island
Casco Bay House

Considering the poor season this
popular hotel has had a fairly sue
cessful season. Guests who have
come here in previous years have re-
turned here this year. Proprietor

most attentive to the needs of his

undone that might add to the comfort
OF the visitors. Mr.. Thomas J. Ca
sey, former, clerk at the hotel for
three years, returned to the hotel for
short stay last week. Mr.. Casey
is now practicing law in Beverly with
his office at 244 Cabot street. His

day two hundred Eagles, members
of Portland, Bath and Biddeford socie-
ties, were present here for an all day
outing at Mr.. Cushing's Pavilion. At

A s24o, 900, 900 Revenue Shortage.

The Secretary OF the Treasury announces that
he will recommend to Congress that the emer-
gency act, which expires by statutory limi-
| tation on December 81, 1915, be extended until
peace is restored in Europe, and that the present
duty sugar. which the Underwood tariff act
provided should be removed May l, 1910, be
| retained until normal customs conditions re-
stored" With these two sources of revenue in
operation the government at the present time is
spending at the rate of $Ioo, 100000 a year more
than it receives, that if Congress adopts Mr.. Nc
Adoo's recommendations, it must inevitably, it
will make step of progress toward meeting the
deficit With the present ratio of income to ex-
penditures maintained Congress must provide some
new means for raising another $Ioo 100000 year
to bring the government out This, of course,
does not take into account the money that un-
doubtedy will have to be appropriated for the ma
tional defense, which has been estimated at any
where from S3oo,ooo,ooo to $500, ,ooo and for
by issue OF bonds.
Secretary McAdoo's recommendations could
easily have been anticpated he has taken the only
course open him, though it necessarily involves
confession OF the total failure Of the Underwood
act revenue producer. Summed up the coun-
trys present financial condition proves that the
tariff law falls short of yielding the revenue its
trainers and supporters calculated by about
$40. 900, ,ooo since the sugar duty, which the I'm
derwood act provided should be removed on May
l. 1916 yields about s5o,oooooo the special reve-
nue. act tax about $ooooo,ooo while the
annual deficit amounts to about SIooooo,ooo.
All the blame for this $4,000 900 shortage the
administration leaders place upon the Speaker
Champ Clark says there is difficulty with the
revenue" due to the war, and Secretary McAdoo
wants the sugar duty retained until normal GUS
toms conditions are restored" And yet the sta
tisics of the Department OF Commerce show that
in the first year OF the there was falling off
in the value OF imports OF only II per cent
$4,000 900. Plainly this decrease does not ex

had figured on.

tax in time of peace and they will contribute the

in whatever way Congress may dictate, but when
the 1916 campaign rolls around the administrations
financing will call for explanation, and that means
that the operation of the tariff will be SUBJ
jected to deep scrutiny. There is no reason to
doubt that this will be the big issue.

The District and the New Congress.

1t is more than hopeful sign for Washington
that leading members of its business and civic
organizations arc thus early manfesting serious
interest in the selection of committees the Dis

OF cooperating with the leaders in the new Con-

District committees-is of first importance. AS a

terday the people of Washington have never been
SO well organized as at present working so har-

Capital. This being the case it should be easy to
impress upon the new Congress the fact that
Washington speaks with one voice upon all sub
jects pertaining to its interests. and friendly
basis of cooperation between the citizens and the
men who make the laws for them should be estab-
shed as natural result There is no reason
why the runous and deplorable antagonisn of

The Navy Yard Wage Dispute.

A serious dispute over wages is in progress be-
tween the government of the United States on one
side and the employees OF the Washington Navy
Yard on the other. The men claimed that they
were receiving lower pay than those engaged in
similar work in private establishments, and, after
months of delay the justice of their claim was
established and an increase of wages was offered
them. The amount Of the increase, however is
now declared by the men to be wholly unsatis-
factory, and there is serious talk of a strike. A
similar situation existing between big corpora
ton and its employees would arouse public interest
all over the country, there would be demand for
arbitration and if the situation became acute per-
haps government authorities would take a hand.
If the corporation refused to arbitrate it would be
Indignantly denounced. The situation at present
existing between the United States government and
the navy yard employees appears to be no different
There is wide difference between the two sides
of the controversy and danger of strike. Why
should not their differences be arbtrated? Why
should not Uncle Sam set example for other
employers and propose that board Of arbitration
be chosen to investigate, discover all the facts
and FIX scale of wages? The spectacle of great
government engaged in prolonged dispute over
wages is not inspiring one, and the curtain
should be rung down on it without delay. Why
not arbitratc?
