THE VISION

In the long run what is it that mon vote for labor for, struggle for, give up their lives for? Why surely not for themselves Not wholly for themselves. There is but feels, however duly no man but has the vision however obscurey, that he is the heir of all the generations behind him and that it is emnently his business to ampify and improve the estate. He must hew paths; he must hand on the torch. Of what is in this world if he cannot make it better world for his son? It tell you this feeling is at the bottom of every mans heart; it's the root and handspring of his every aet.--Mary Watts.

WAR AND DEMOCRACY

Our political leaders tell that fighting in the interest of the people, That is what the kaiser is telling the Germans. And the French government no doubt assures the disciples of Sorel that the carnage is for the benefit of the people. It is a great time for democraey-surely never many diplomats and statesmen talked afectionately of it before All seem to be agreed that the prin- cples of democracy are at stake No country thinks of putting these principles into practice but some how they seem to be worth fighting for.

Where is the man-not only Alaskans, who wouldn't risk his life to save his wife, especially when she has just risked her own life in giving birth to his child :? Not that We want to detract from MT Riggs bray cry; but we must say that he showed no more bray cry than his wife; than the who goes in the hills to provide for his family at the risk of his life; no more than the millions of men who are new risking their lives in defense of their countries Talk about Tom Riggs braveryi Piffle.

TALKING ABOUT QUEER PEOPLE

Talking about queer people; ever queerer character found than the District Attorney of Port land Oregon, wish to goodness some one would point him out to us, as we would like to make his acouaintance because he would be a curiosity. Of all the queer people we have met, that official above mentioned is the queerest. At least that is the way We have got him sized up from distance
 It will be remembered that the people Of Oregon voted the state dry the last election Now comes that "queer" person with the announcement that In his opinion newspapers carrying liquor advertisements could be prohibited from being distributed in that state and that to carry out this opinion, he pro poses 70 obtain an injunction against the publishers. He points out that the state has law now in force that compes the publisher of sporting publication with national distribution to issue special edition for Oregon, and he wants to do the same for news rapers with liquor advertisements.
 Now, to us thi looks like absurdity, sounds like an absurdity and by ginks we believe it to be the very acme of absurdity. As though liquor ad- vertisement that appears in a newspaper was more than suggestive of place where liquor can be ob- tained. In other words though the advertisement could be drank in the state of Oregon which would make 1t capital sin.
 Manifestly, that eminent parsonage is too good for this world and as sure as anything, Oregon will lose hne soon as he be sprouting wing' rapidly The first thing the people of that state will know, he'll be flying off with the angels But he'll never he an angel himself, because they don't make mem angels As matter of fact, there aint such animal

"SHELLAC YOUR KIDNEYS"

A distinguished physician, DR.. Ed

of the beer barrels. But now we know
that we get our kidney shellac from

their deleterious effect upon the kid

A WET" CLAIM SHATTERED
Prohibition Does Not Increase Taxes
Or Reduce Revenue.

The New York Times wei says:
Nobody has any more patience
with talk about the loss of public
revenue that goes with the decrease
manufacture and sale of intoxicants.
Such talk is too stupid and too vicious
for present tolerance"
The modern liquor traffic asserts
that 1t is source of revenue, that
taxes must be increased IL the re-
ceipts from license are wiped out by
prohibition, adds a Michigan writer
The liquor trade Is not a source of
revenue. Prohibition of the liquor
traffic has never, when enforced by
honest officials, increased the tax rate
even slightly in any state or city. AL
most invariably prohibition has had
precisely the opposite effect upon the
tax rate.
In every state campaign the defend
srs of the saloon have tried to produce
the impression that liquor revenues
constitute very large part of the
states receipts, but in 1913 the liquor
taxes amounted to only 4.3 per cent
Of the revenues of states, counties and
incorporated places.
The history Of prohibition in the va
rious states which have tried it show
that it is tax reducer. According to
the latest volume of Wealth, Debt and
Taxation, issued by the Federal gov.
eminent, there are only two states
having lower rate for state purposes
than Kansas, and one of these is the
prohibition state of West Virginia.
According to federal figures only 8
license cities between $4,000 and Co.
600 in population have less tax rate
than Wichita, Kansas, and only 5 have
less rate than Topeka.
A census bulletin, for 1913, showed
s10.12 per capita of general. taxes col
lected in the prohibition states; $11.0S
per capita in the near-prohibition
states; $14.S2 per capita in the par
TALLY license states; and $16.98 per
capita in the wet states.
