MORE TAXES COMING.

The Philadelphia Inquirer says: In a
semi-official statement given out by the
administration it appears that there is
not money enough at present in sight
to warrant doing anything to increase
the Army and Navy. But we are ask
ell to perk up, because next year in.
creased taxation will be laid and we can
be protected.
This is anything but cheerful news.
Here we have in times of profound
peace war tax of 81, 900, 900, 900 or so,
and it is minated that next year the
amount must be doubled or trebled, so
that we can go to bed and sleep sound
ly. 1t is hardly necessary to repeat for
the fiftieth time that the alleged war
tax is mere subterfuge to cover the
failure of the administration to raise
money because of its low tariff duties.
There are plenty of ways in which the
administration may economize, but
nothing of the sort is likely to happen.
We shall continue to pay extra taxes
when we ought to be living comfort
ably under sane protective laws.
Of course, we must have national
protection at any cost. new taxes or
not. But we do not think the people
will again submit to an administration
which has made such fist of financial
management.

BETTER lines VISTA.

The Baltimore American in its issue
of last Tuesday has this to say of the
business outlook:
As surely as the sun follows the storm
the era of better times is dawning for
the United States. The great pur-
chases of war materials and food sup
plies in this country. incident to the
strife abroad, has had vitalizing effect.
The field of manufacturing develop
ment is being enthusiastically entered.
The diverting of products that formerly
went to some of the countries now
difficult to reach are being directed to
other markets. The United States is in
a position of adjustment of It's indus
tries and the direction of its exports.
All this takes time But it is part of
the tremendous upgrade impulse that
is in progress.
Despite Democratic misdemeanors
the country feels a better times out
look. 1t is the vista of the return of
the Republican party to power. The
country is not interested in the Republi-
can party as such. 1t is interested in
the record of that party and its power
to duplicate that record for bringing
about prosperity through the logical
policies for which it stands.
Hence the better times vista. 1t is
the vista of great crops. 1t is a vista
Of new products and new markets. 1t
is vista of the close of the war and all
the rest of the world turning to the
United States to bring its powers of re-
habitation to bear. America leads the
world today. Free from war;free from
its calamities, free from its most serious
consequences; free to work out its own
destinies, to harvest its crops, to pro-
mote its business-it will be ready at
the close of the war to reap the harvest
of phenomenal prosperity from the war
Frustrated, but vltally energetic, powers
of Europe.
