CONFIDENT NOW
OF LOCAL OPTION

that Western Pennsylvania was re-
spending to the call. ,....
II am more confident of ultimate
victory for the local option movement
than ever before" said Governor
Brumbaugh just before he left Pitts

for the dry element in politics Is
growing rapidly. What we neea Is
better organization and contradiction
of our forces, and that is going TO
come before the date of the primaries.
"I expect to be in the West again
next month inspecting the state IN
stitutions, and by that time the po-
litical horizon may have cleared, so
that an intelligent conception of the
true situation may be cleaned.
The Governors Views
The Governor also outlined again
some of his well-known views, saying:

the common belief that ] have. l
favor a free rein for all in the pri-
maries, and do not believe in inter-
fering in local conditions.
There is still chance to effect
peaceful arrangement in the party on
the delegate question, but thes local
option fight must go through to a
finish.
1.-THE Legislature ought not to be in
session when the Governor is inaugu-
rated. 1t is a handicap for him to so
into Office when the lawmakers are
sitting. How can he tell what the
needs of the State institutions are, so
that he can make intelligent sugges-
tions to the House? He ought to be
in office at least year before the
Legislature meets. and in that time
become acquainted with conditions all
over the State, particularly those that
effect the institutions with which the
lawmaking body has to do. ] cer-
tainly shall recommend to the House,
before finishing my term of office, that
the date for inauguration of the Chief
Executive of the State be set at a time
when the Legislature is not in ses-
sion."
The Pittsburgh Gazette-Times says
to-day: when it was suggested that
it might be difficult to get votes for
instructed and uninstructed delegates

BOOST TAX TO
COVER DEFICIT
Munitions Will Be Levied on
and S1OO,OO0,OOO Taken
"From Rich

Washington, d. c., March 21.-The
program for financing the Democra-
tic deficit in government revenues,
and the national defense program has
finally been agreed upon by the DEM
ocratic leaders of the House. The
principal feature of the program is
to raise an additional 100000 by
a heavy increase in the income tax.
In addition, the most influential lead
ers of the Ways and Means Commit
tee have determined to urge a tax on
munitions of war, which they believe
will raise from s25,000,0O to 100000
900.
An additional $50, 900, 900 is to be
raised by taxes on insurance, increases
in the taxes on beer and whisky, and a
miscellaneous list of other. taxable
'luXuries" Thus it is expected that
at least $145,0OO,000 of additional
revenue can be raised, but the present.
war taxes" which produced 100000
600 last year, is to be repealed, leav-
ing little over $100,000,00O in the
way of new revenue should the pro-
gram go through.
To Re-enact "War Taxes
Secretary McAdoo, with the ap-
proval of President Wilson, proposed
the re-enactment of the war taxes,
but the sentiment of the majority of
Democrats In the House is against this
proposal The substitute program
pTOpOSeu Dy UldJOTlIy ledueT
and his lieutenants is based upon the
assumption that the income tax can
be virtually doubled. The leaders
have polled the Democratic member
ship and find that q majority are will
| ing to soak the rich"
Even under this program of extra
ordinary taxation, there will be o lack
of revenue to run the government and
finance the defense program. Mr..
Kitchin said some time ago that the
amount of money needed for the in
creases in the army and navy would
be in the neighborhood of $160,000,-
600. This calculation was based upon
the prospect that the House would
make but minor increases in the
army. If the Senate gives the nation
real army, larger increases in reve-
nue. will be necessary and in that
event there will be heavier taxation
of munitions and inheritances thar
have been outlined in the preliminary
program.
Get Steam Roller Ready
Although the tentative outline of
the program is authoritative, formal
draft of the revenue bill will be with
held until the legislative program has
been practically completed in the
the legislative program it an
nounced to-day by Majority
Leader Kitchin that he would call a
caucus of the House Democrats as
soon as the army bill has been passed,
and that plans will then be considered
for eXpediting the entire Legislative
program. \ series of special rules will
be brought i'm from the rules commit
tee to limit debate on the various
measures that remain. The Democra-
tic leaders are already oiling up the
steam roller.

 Mrs Nellie Andrews. who k very prominent in local temper ance. charity and settlement work circles. has filed suit in the To- cal courts asking for a divorce from her husband Charles An drews.

 The complaint also recites the incidents leading up to the marriage of the Andrews, the bonds of which Mrs Andrews now seeks to sever It states that the couple met at Sat urday afterr oon religious service held at tu" ia l last September while Andrews was incarCnrated on charge of assault. and that it was a case of love at first sight on the part of both. the romance ending with the mar riage of the couple after An drews was liberated.
