Republican Death kneJi.

The Republican leaders have sound ed the death knell of their party by proclaiming that it is party of the North and not of the South; not a national organization, but a sectional organization" declared Col. William F. Sapp, Democratic national commit teeman of Kansas, in a recent inter- view. The Republican national com- mittee has voted to reduce the South ern representation in the convention. This is virtual declaration that the Republican party does not represent the South; but the North alone; it is not a national organization. There has been a lot of apparent enthusi- asm among the Republicans of late, for what reason am unable to under stand. Certainly they cannot base their optimism on poor business con- ditions. for as an old friend of mine back in Kansas expressed it. business is gettin better every day and the Re publicans are throwin' fit ,"

Loanlna Government Money.

True 1t Is that in 1888 the Repub- hcan national platform denounced the Democratic policy of loaning the gov ernment's money without interest to pet banks" but President Harrison and his secretary of the treasury con- tinued the same policy during every month of his four years of occupancy of the White House.
 So it was under Cleveland's second administration, so it was under Mo kinley's administrations, so it was under Roosevelt's administrations; and what banker and what business man so forgetful as to fail to remem- Der the scores of millions of dollars in United States treasury funds which Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou piled into the vaults of the banks of New York city when the panic of 1907, under a Republican administra- tion, brought pallor to the bankers cheeks as their vault shelves were emptied of their own stocks of cur rency?

built. While the details of the con struction have not been made public, it is understood that the new craft will be equipped with six 12-cylinder motors of 300 horsepower each, giving total power to the airship of 1900 horsepower.
 This power, 1t is believed, will be easily capable of sending the America through the air at speed of 100 miles an hour.
 In addition to attaining the highest speed yet reached by any large air craft, the America will be enabled by it's large size to carry without the slightest trouble a crew of six per sons, fuel, instruments, provisions and equipment necessary for the proposed flight.
 In his letter to MT. Hawley, Mir. Wanamaker told of his insistent desire to cross the Atlantic. in the belief that it would be the first step in the evo- lution of commercial air lines con- meeting all the continents. His letter in part Is as follows:
 Pursuing my purpose to build an aircraft that will cross the ocean, the America Trans Oceanic company was incorporated, and the company acting for me, has placed an order with the Curtiss Aeroplane company for a new craft that will have more than ten times the power of the old one. It will be of special design. entirely diff ferent from any aircraft heretofore built, and especially adapted for alight- ing on and arising from rough seas, and therefore eminently fitted for the transatlantic flight. It is now under construction and will be tested at the Atlantic coast aeronautical station at Newport News.

Plan of Collecting Income Tax
 Is Criticized.
New York World Advises a Change in Methods, and Presents Arguments UphoIding It's Vision of
 the Situation.

Secretary McAdoo is right in the view that the income tax needs frightening up" But 1t needs tight ening up in more ways than requir. ing the taxable citizen to make a de- tailed return of deductions from gross income
 The honest assessment of the tax suffers primarily from the attempt to collect at the source" This amounts to an effort on the part of the gov ernment to turn over the collection of the individual tax to the corporations at their own instead of the govern ments expense Work which the gov ernment's tax collectors are paid for doing is passed on to those who are forced to do it without compensation and at no end of trouble.
 This is not fair to the collecting corporations. It is demoralizing to the governments own collection serv- ice. It has resulted in indescribable confusion. It cannot but result i'll many evasions which are not the in- tent of the taxpayer.
 Taxable incomes may be derived from single corporate source, from several corporate sources, from no corporate source, or partly from one and from the other source. This ex- poses the assessment to no end of complications wide open even to hon. est evasions. But when the work is further divided between corporation assessors for incomes of corporate origin and government assessors and collectors for other incomes. how is an effective assessment fairly to be expected? Government collectors who are required to shirk twothirds of their work cannot be depended on to perform the other third.
 Let the government go to the in- dividual in the first place, and count upon the corporations only as infor- nation bureaus in getting at the in- dividual and his taxable income This Is the simple way; it must, accord ingly, be the more effective way. It is more in harmony with that spirit of the tax which seeks to bring the individual into direct pocket rela- tion with the government and the way the government is managed.-New York World.

Atlantic ocean will only mark an epoch in aerial navigation, and this faith in it's future is another impor tant reason for the existence of the America Trans-Oceanic company. hope to see the day when this con- pany will be running aerial liners regularly across the Atlantic and oth- CT oceans"
 To indicate that his faith in ocean aerial navigation had not swerved from his former beliefs, MT. Wana- maker also quoted in his letter ex- tracts from letter written by him ill February, 1914, prior to the launch ing of the old America
 The crossing of the Atlantic ocean in one flight of an aircraft" read MT. Wanamaker's letter of that date, is to my mind as important to aerial navigation as was the voyage of Co., lumbus to transportation by water.
 What man can do once, he can do any number of times. Once the At lantic is crossed in single flight of an airship there will soon follow reg ular transatlantic trips and a fixed safe transatlantic passenger air line.
 The crossing of the Atlantic by air is not matter merely of initiative, nor of daring, nor even of skill; it is a problem of science"

WAT TCAFUlNESS NOT ABATED
State and Federal Governments Brought to Better Understanding Which Will Insure Efficient
 Cooperation in Future.

Washington, D. C.-The long fight over. The secretary of agriculture has issued an order removing all foot and-mouth Quarantines and restric- tions against the shipment and move ment of live stock. The order speci- tically removes the quarantine from a small territory in Christian county, Ill.,, the last area which was under suspicion. Along with the removal of this local quarantine, the various fed eral orders restricting shipment of cat tie are rescinded, so that dealers can now ship their cattle as before the first quarantine was imposed.
 Upon notification that the United States is free from the disease, all foreign governments which have placed embargoes on American cattle are expected to remove these en- bargoes, so that cattle raisers will then be able to resume shipments to these foreign countries.
 The magnitude of the work of eradi- cation and control carried on by farm CTS, shippers, and the state and federal governments is shown by the fact that before being controlled, the disease had gained temporary footing in 22 states and the District of Columbia. The disease appeared and was controlled in 269 different counties
 The importance to the stock-raising industry of eradicating foot-and-mouth disease may be judged from the re- suits of this plague in Denmark, where the disease appeared at about the same time that it broke out in the United States. The area of Denmark is approximately equal to that of the three England states-Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island. It Is, however. great dairying country, and 1t has been estimated that the losses in milk in one year caused by the foot-and-mouth disease have amounted to approximately one-third of the total cost of eradicating the The Danish authorities were unable to carry out their former policy Of slaugh- ter, and were compelled to resort to such measures of control as could be established by quarantines and other restrictions.
 As result of better understanding between the state and national govern ments, representatives of the depart ment believe that many of the ob- stacles which confronted the authori- ties in the past outbreak, would not be encountered in dealing with any future occurrence of the disease. The veterinarians, however, will not abate their watchfulness for some time. Elk animation of animals and animal prod ucts offered for import will continue to be unusually strict. The depart. ment. moreover, particularly urges all farmers and cattle handlers to notify their state veterinarians and the de- partment of any suspicious cases of sore mouth combined with lameness' in their animals.

Rodman Wanamaker Is Building Second Giant Craft to Fly

New York-The construction of a new America, to be the largest air craft ever built and to have sufficient power and speed to cross the Atlantic ocean in 30 hours, was announced to local aeronautical authorities by Rod man Wanamaker of Philadelphia, pres ident of the Aero Club of America The order for the huge air machine already has been placed with the Cur tiss Aeroplane company by the Ameri- ca Trans-Ocean company and is now under construction.
 MT. Wanamaker was the owner of the old America, ill which an attempt to fly from Newfoundland to England was to have been made in 1914 After completion it was launched in June of that year. achieved a trial speed of 60 miles an hour and was ready for intervened
 John C. Porte, lieutenant in the English army, who was to have had command of the trial trip across the ocean, returned to his regiment in England and the proposed flight was postponed until after the war. In Oc- tober, 1914, however, under what was reported as a contract made contin- gent upon Englands entrance into a war, the America was sold to Great Britain and was shipped to that coun- try aboard the steamship Mauretania While news concerning the British use of the huge airship has been censored, Americans returning from abroad have asserted that the great hydro aeroplane has proved all the claims made for it prior to the war.

WAR EMITTING THE PRISONS
Eleven in England Close Entirely, Nine Others Are Nearly
 Vacant,

London.-A reduction in the prison estimates for the coming year of $500, O,000-or about 12 per cent-and the shutting up, in whole or part, of score of prisons. These are some of the visible evidences of the reduc- tion of crime in this country owing to the war.
 Of the 20 prisons closed or in proc ess of closure, II have been closed entirely, all being situated in towns of moderate size, like Chelmsford, Hereford, Stafford, St. Albans, Devices, and so forth. Of four others a wing only has been given up. Arrange. ments are now being made for the to- tai closing of five more.
 It is true that not quite all of the diminution in criminality can be as. cribed to the war, for the process has been going on since 1904, undoubted- ly as result of the greater intelli- gence of British legislation.
 In their last report the commission CTS of prisons ascribed the decrease in criminality to three chief causes- namely CD the drifting into the army of considerable section of the pop ulation from which the criminal classes ordinarily come; CD the new demands for labor and the greater fla cilities for making livelihood by hon. est means and (3) the restriction of the sale of liquor. Experts have no doubt that it is the last of these three causes which has been most infiuen- tial.

 After leaving the Southern Pacific snowsheds at the summit, the way to the bottom of the mountain was almost straight up and down, with many drifts of snow nearly fifty feet deep.
 The only way over some of the drifts was to tie rope on the horn of the saddle and let the horse slide down. The horse slipped on one of the drifts and fell to the bottom, al. most hundred feet below, luckily es. caping injury.

WHEN DOREMUS WAS AN EDITOR

Representative Frank F. Doremus, chairman of the Democratic congress sional committee, used to run a little weekly newspaper in Michigan. His speciality was writing about the tariff. He was seventeen years of age and had once written an essay on the tar if for high school literary society. He therefore agreed to be the local authority on tariff matters. When his paper had been going for about a week, Doremus burst forth in a col umn editorial. It was about the tariff. The next day the probate judge of the county came in, threw copy of the paper on the counter, and ordered his subscription stopped.
 And l was the happiest man in town, says Doremus, for I had found another person besides myself who took me seriously"
