INCOME TAX RETURNS.

washington, June 16.-Ffrst esti-
mates OF returns from the personal
and corporation income tax have been
revised upward by treasury depart
rnent officials, who now anticipate
more than $S2 900 900 during the pres
emit calendar year from this source.
1t is now apparent, officials said today
that there will be sufficient money
from this source to wipe out large
part OF the deficit which appeared
early in the year and which steadily
Increased until a short time ago
This fact is counted upon to silence
for the present talk OF an issue Of

THE PIPE OF PEACE.


The Country Editor sat in his chair
Smoking pipe of clay;
Thinking of troubles, mostly small,
That had bothered him that day.
Unpaid bills, subscribers kick,
A balky press and broken stick.
Lay heavy on his soul.
A city daily's page outspread,
Captured his careless eye.
Its startling headlines seemed to
breathe
The city's daily cry:
Murder and suicide, death and divorce,
Failure, dishonor, right conquered by
force,
These were the stories told.
And the editor filledsup his pipe again,
While his thoughts breather deep con-
tent.
what matters the worries OF a day
In life clean and well spent?
Learning little, helping some,
Ny living earned my work well done,
/ am rich indeed" he unused.

The first battle against the Car
dinals was so soft that it did not give
the West Siders an opportunity to
display the fighting spirit Manager
Bresnahan is supposed to have in
stilled into them. Everything came
the way of the locals without exer-
ton.
One or two things. however, stuck
out prominently and encouragingly.
Foremost was the element of speed,
a big factor in the scoring of some
of the Cub runs. Bresnahan's peo-
pie ran around the sacks as though
they realized what they were doing,
started at the proper times, and, once
they were in motion, they moved
with quickness and dispatch.
First games are never grounds on
which to judge any ball team. There
is a sense of strangeness among the
players, they have not been tuned up
to actual combat, and there is also
a certain amount of excitement and
nervous tension which does not ap-
pear in the later affrays.
Fisher looms large as a factor in
Cub success. His bat was important,
and he swings confidently, as though
he expected to do some damage to
the opposing pitching. In the field,
advance reports said he would be off
color, as his arm was weak, and could
not wing the ball to first base fast
enough on slow-hit balls.
Fisher disproVed this prediction
when he caught Glenn, the Card
backstop, The ball was hit slowly,
caroming off Vaughn's hands. Fisher
scooted in, grabbed the sphere, and
sent it over to Safer from STOPPING
position.

TAKING LESS HORSES
IS WAR NEARING END

People who are getting horses
ready for the French inspection which
will be held in Dickinson on Saturday,
August 7, will be interested in the
following from recent issue of the
Yellowstone Monitor published at
Glendive:
"That the rapidly decrea sing pur-
chases of artillery and cavalry horses
by both the French and English gov
ernments points to an early termina-
ton Of the present European conflict,
is the opinion held by many people
who have made a close study Of con-
ditions in Europe.
"This opinion seems to be corrobo-
rated by the fact that both these
great nations allied against the Ger
man empire have reduced their con-
tracts for horses to an almost neg
ligible figure, while it is known that
vast numbers of these animals are be-
ing slaughtered daily on the battle
fields.
"At the French inspection which was
held yesterday at the yards of the
Glendive Horse Sales Company, just
46 head of horses were purchased by
Cu0 representatives VI CIle L IS1ICu 1S-
public.
"The officers in charge are Lieuten-
ant Roy of Paris, France, who is the
inspector in chief; Contractor J. r.
Magyar of Philadelphia and a French
surgeon. Lieutenant Roy
has been in this country for the past
six months and has practically pur-
chased all the horses shipped out of
this country to France"
The officers mentioned in the Moni-
tor are the same who made the in
spection in Dickinson on July 10 and
they will be back for second in
spection on August 7, going to the
Custer Trail, south Of Medora, day
earlier. AS stated in the PRESS
last week, the French are the only
people buying war horses in the u.
S. at the present time. How long
they will continue to buy, no one
knows. The war may go on for a
year or two and it may stop any
time.
