Around 1t were snowiiakes large and

They played peek-a-book with the

But the winds were the best fun ct

For they tossed them this way and
they tossed them that way,
And they had TO hold fast or they'd

"HOME RUIN" CHALLENGED IN

People of Dry Section Bitterly Pro-

The fact that the so-calied home
rule amendment forcing saloons into
forty-five dry counties of Ohio was
carried by majority of only q few
thousand, and the further fact that 1t
was Overwhelmingly defeated outside
of the one city of Cincinnati. has given
rise to much bitterness in those por~
tons of the State not already affiict-
ed with the saloon. Why should the
boss-ruled city of Cincinnati force

the indignant people of the upstate
counties I'VE don't want saloons, we
have voted them out. and now have
them forced upon us. That's a love-

Senator West desired to contra
dict the statement that there are
many "pauper" counties In the State.
This he thought due to a mere tech
nicality of figures and the failure to
credit such counties with the fran
chise tax on railroads. He thought
there was 100 much stress on low as
sessments tn few counties, to which
the deficit Is not due.
The great curse of the tax system
in Virginia is the failure TO list In

Senator West upheld the figures
presented by the commission, saying
that he had proved them FOR his dis

them correct.
He held that the tax commission
