The School Board wants to know!
The board has $16O, the net proceeds
from the high school girls Operetta
last Thursday, with which to obtain a
bust of Monsieur Lorimier, but no one
knows where to find a fac-simile of
his physiognomy.
Since the money has been obtained
and the acquisition Of the bust Was
assured, members of the board of
education as well as members of the
nigh school faculty have been search
ing everywhere for a picture OF the
first commander Of the Cape Girar-
deau trading post.
The Cape was u pretty rough-and-
ready place in those days-about a
century ago-and according to the
results Of The search, Mr.. Lorimier
either neglected to have his picture
taken or forgot to preserve it.
"He might have thrown away his
photograph as excess baggage while
being chased by the Indians" H. H.

INCOME TAX BOOST.
Democrats Have Program 70 Raise
100000, 900 More Revenue.

Washington, June lat confer
ence> Of the democratic members OF
the ways and means committee today
Representative Hull, author Of the in
come tax section Of the existing tariff
law, presented revenue program
that calls for the raising Of practically
$100,0O0,000 additional from the income
tax, $50,0O0,00O by tax on Inherit
ances and $40,OoO,oO0 by an internal
revenue levy on the production Of mu-
nitions of war.
The plans Of the ways and means
committee democrats do not contem-
plate lowering Of the present exemp-
tons of the income tax-$3,0o0 for I'M
married taxpayers and $4,000 for tax
payers of family-but radical in
crease in surfaces on the larger In
comes is proposed.
This increase will begin on all in
comes over $4,000. and there will be
general Redistribution. of taxpay-
cps so as to produce more revenue
that is. with every few, thousand dol
lars of increased income there will be
higher percentage Of surtax.
BY such Encouragement Of classes.
the democrats believe, they can raise
s100,00O,000 moro revenue per annum
and the burden of taxation will fall
or the richer classes. 1t Is tenta-
lively planned by the majority MEM
bers that the tax on 1nheritances
above 100000 shall be PA per cent,
altho this figure is subject to REVISION
1t is expected that s4O,0oO,0o0 per
annum may be raised by tax on war
munitions but it is realized that this
return will fluctuate with the de-
mand for the instruments of warfare.
Inasmuch as Secretary McAdoo esti-
mates that only S15O.000,000 additional
revenue will be required the demo-
Gratis are playing safe" by framing
a bill that will require the payers Of
the income tax and an inheritance tax
to provide substantially this amount.
1t is the intention Of the majority
of the ways and means committee no.
TO report the revenue bill until after
the national conventions.

Oats-OatS were stronger than 9TH

crop outlook in the southwest is poor
The general prospect, however, is good
and the crop will probably exceed the

Sheep.
Sheep and lambs were in demand.
Lamb trade was much more uneven
than usual and the price range was
wider than any previous time this year.
Buyers showed a disposition to pay
premium willingly for prime lots, but
such traders were the least urgent bio
ders for the palmer kinds. Outside
orders were limited, altho city butchers
bought a few punches. Packers were
the main competitors and before very
late in the day they had absorbed the
bulk of the good to prime offerings.
Altho some prime lots were on sale,
