U. 8. Money Shortage May Cause
Tariff Revision.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 2S.-The

the fore yesterday by the disclosure

ment will need for current expenses

war and income taxes and the tariff
act, even IL the sugar duties are re-
tanned, as is now planned by the ad-
ministration.
This $5O.0OO,O0O additional rev.
enue will be needed without regard
to the expenditures for national de-
tense for which the administration
seems to have decided to provide by
issuing bonds.
Interest in this disclosure was In
creased by information that pro-
posal. which the administration Is
understood to have considered, to
levy a special revenue duty on wool.

GIFTS IN HIGH LIFE.
Proposal Made for Penny Wide
Subscription for Wedding
Gift for Mrs. Gait, the
Presidents Finance

The proposal has been made fol
a nation wide penny subscription
for a wedding gift for Mrs. Gait
the presidents financee. "a penny
from every citizen" is the slogan
Whether or not this is attempted
the President and Mrs. Gait will
have the usual superduity of gifts
seen at high life weddings. There
are many people, niggardly with
charities, who will make these su-
perfluous offerings to notabilities.
No president should ever need finan-
cial assistance for the rest of his
life. He will be amply able to buy
everything, except the unpurchas-
able gifts of friendship and love.
Instead of penny from every
citizen for Mrs. Gait, why not for
bleeding Belgium?
The assemblage of gifts at the
White house will represent mixed
ihOsNC. 1HCic Will Uc Iuc usual
welcome offerings of real friend
ship. In some cases the gifts will
carry the taint of the social game.
The autograph letter from the pro-
spective Mrs. Wilson is anticipated,
as an heirloom to be handed down.
Then there may be possible invita-
tions and valuable ties with high
life. Climbing families having
daughters to marry or social heights
to reach, must not neglect these
chances. A hundred dollars for a
wedding gift is merely an incident.
Such gifts are a burden. A single
teaspoon standing for real affection
is better than mahogany side
board with mushy sentiment or sell
fish feeling behind it.
The suggestion of the penny SUBJ
scription to Mrs. Gait is no doubt
prompted by kindly feeling. But it
should not trench on the fields Of
real philanthropy. Our charities
have hard struggle to exist. 9th
er causes should prove their vital
necessity before they trench on the
already burned over fields or benev-
olence.

AUTO LICENSE FEES
IN IOWA INCREASING
There Has Been Close to $75,OOO
More Derived Over Last Year
-S4,34O More Machines.
81, ,142, ,033. 20 LICENSE
FEE PAID TO STATE
In Ten Months This Year lows Has
Registered S4,S40 More Cars
Than Entire Twelve
Months Last Year.

Up to October first of this year the
automobile department of the secre-
tary of state Office had registered
147,726 automobiles and the total
license fee paid into the state
amounted to $1,142,933.7S. In ten
months this year Iowa has register
ed 34,34O more cars than during
the entire twelve months last year.
License fees for the ten months this
year exceed those for the twelve
months of last year by s77,535.46.
Last year the automobile taxes
were distributed as follows: For
state expense, cents, or $74,577-
.SS; for the State Highway Commits
sion, $S5,231.S7, or per cent, and
for county roads, $9O5,5SS.57, or
So per cent.
At the last session of the legisla-
ture the law was changed so that
after May Sth of this year the per-
centages were changed. Since that
time the county roads have received
80 per cent of the tax and the state
and the highway commission each
five per cent. Up to October 1st of
this year the state expense fund re-
ceived from the automobile tax $72,-
960.77; the highway commission,
$S0,876.80 and the county road
fund $9S9,105.21.
These figures reveal the big sums
of money which the auto tax is turn
ing over to the roads of the state for
not only is the money paid directly
into the road fund for the road inn
provement but the money given to
the highway commission is also for
road improvement. This means
that $1,069,973 has been turned to
the cause OF good roads in Iowa this
season.
1t is probable that quite a little
more will be added to this fund be-
fore the close of this year. The regis
tration keeps large force of clerks
busy in the secretary of states Of

route and Is forced to go three

feeling will prevail among those
affected that the administration
should go slow in appropriating sc

"WHY SOME MEN FAIL"

AN answer that non-advertis-
ing merchant will often make to the
question, why don't you adver-
tise" is that everyone knows where
he is and what he carries, therefore
why advertise.
Everyone knows who the big
catalogue houses are and where they
are-yet they keep on advertising.
The non-advertising merchant
should go down to Chicago and
show them their mistake. They
would thank him and offer him a
good position-aber NIGHT.
II man has anything In his store
that he did not have year ago. he
has something to advertise. If he
does not have anything new in his
store he does not need to advertise.
He needs an undertaken because he
is a dead one.

IOWA
CUMMINs RACE BEGUN.
Friends of Iowa Senator Open Cam.
paign Office At Des MOines
This Week.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. 28.-Friends
of Senator Cummins who are pro-
noting his candidacy for the presi-
dency will establish headqual ters
in Des Moines in the next few days.
Negotiations now are pending for
the leasing of suitable suite of
rooms in q downtown office build
ing. With the opening of the head
quarters and the announcement of
the names Of those persons who will
constitute the active Cummins or
ganization in Iowa, the task of lin
ing up other states in the senator's
behalf will be started. The work of
the senator's supporters will be
largely confined to those states in
which primaries are held.
More than half the delegates to
the republican convention next year
will be selected by the nineteen
states which already have adopted
the preferential primary. Two 9TH
or states may be added to this list
in short time. A primary bill is
now pending in the Alabama legis-
lature. In Vermont the primary
law has been passed by the legisla-
ture and will be voted upon by ref
erendum this winter. 1t is esti-
mated that the number of delegates
to be chosen at the preferential pri-
maries will reach 582. With Ala
bama and Vermont included the to-
tai is estimated at COS.
The first presidential primary
will be held in Indiana on March
Z, but it will have no particular
significance in view of the fact that
the state is not likely to turn down
former Vice President Fairbanks,
who is mentioned as a candidate.
The second primary to be held and
the first in the west will be in Min
nesOta. The outcome of the Mime
sofa primary will be watched with
eagerness, as the success of Sena-
tor Cummins, as he admits himself,
depends almost entirely on the ac-
tion of Minnesota.
II am perfectly willing to hazard
my chances on Min)ssota. snid
the senator yesterday. "If'I ami
unable to win there, I may as well
give up"
The supporters of the senator and
the senator himself have received
the most gratifying reports from
Minnesota and they are confident he
will win that state by an over
whelming vote. OF those states
holding primaries, Senator Cummins
believes he will be able to win the
majority. He realizes. however.
that he cannot look for any great
support from those in which a sd-
vorite son is running, for instance
Ohio, Michigan, Massachusetts and
a few others.

Decline Of Old Style Newspapering.
A gentleman remarked few days
ago that the old-fashioned newspa-
per had about passed away. OF
course there have always been high
class newspapers, edited with care
and with desire to present the bet
ter side of life. but twenty-five or
thirty-fve years ago most towns Of
any pretentions had special type
Of newspaper that dealt in billings
gate, bitterness and brutality, and
the editor who could make the mean-
est personal reflections against some
citizen of the community-not even
|sparing the privacy of the family,
and swear to the largest list OF sub
scribers regardless of the merit OF
his list, considered himself lion OF
the community and usually had
friends among those who escaped
punishment from his pen, and who
also enjoyed seeing his neighbor Will
fed. But this class of newspapers
have been pretty wei weeded out,
although there is an occasional echo
from the past. AS matter OF fact,
abusive language is the easiest kind
of writing where one has the dispo-
sition to endulge himself, but 1t is
the least appreciated by intelligent

During the past few years l

servant of the people. To
discover our faults is one road
to success Hence l covet the
privilege of YOUR viewpoint.
BY answering the following
questions, which are directed
to many business and profess

ought to do
1.-Why are not more men
members of the church?
2.-Are the Churches of your
acquaintance doing the work you
believe the church ought to do?
3.-What do you consider
the most helpful phase of
Church Work?
4.-Do you believe the
Church ought to be school
of instruction on Local Moral
Problems?
5.-Could the Church do
more to stop poverty, Intem-
perance and Juvenile Delin-
quincy? How?
Thanking you for an early
