who headed the Young Mems RepubIi-

cessful campaign. VIII be the Ham
mond deputy of Prosecutor-elect Clyde
Hunter. Is the confident expectation Of
the many friends Of Mr.. Cleveland.
Mr. Cleveland, who mas offices in the
Hammond building, is a lawyer Of
proven ability, tactfui and a good clean
record. If the deputyship is to go to
one of the younger men in the profess
sion, Mr. Cleveland probably would be
found to be the unanimous choice. Thus
far he has not asked for it, and it is
understood that Prosecutor-elect Hunt
er made no campaign promises.

WASHINGTON, Nov 16-The ad-
ministration is ready to start an ag-
gressive fight in behalf of the Adam
son law which is now the object OF
concerted attacks by most Of the big
railroads in the county, it was made
clear today.
Belief was expressed by high Off
cials that the efforts to enjoin the op-
erations of the law would fail.
It was suggested that the govern
ment might not confine its efforts to
defensive tactics If the hope Of the
railroads to prevent the operation or
the law should appear likely OF reali-
zatfon.
If the railroads tie up the enforce
ment Of the Adamson act. the rail-
road workers are expected to strike.
1t Is the view of some of the Presi-
dents advisors that the court would
hold the railroads responsible for in
reference with interstate commerce
in such cases and would compel them
to abide by the provisions of the act
This belief is strength by the fact
that the Adamson law primarily Is a
measure designed to obtain a thouogh
and scientific investigation of facts on
which to base fnal legislation

pointed out that while warrants may

followed in federal courts.

Especial correspondence.l

Washington. Jan. 11.-Altho the
! democratic members Of the ways and
means committee have by no means
worked out their plans for the raising
of additional revenue to meet the needs
OF the government. the general lines
of the legislation they will recommend
are becoming more distinct.
One feature of their recommends
tions vii lbe for additional income
! taxes. They will probably not recon-
mend any. lowering of limit for the
purpose of reaching smaller incomes
| than are now reached by the tax. But
| they favor large increase in the sur
tax on large incomes. This plan Will
have strong backing in congress and
the argument that wealth should bear
the cost of preparedness VIII find much
! backing. #
Inheritance Tax Not in Favor.
An inheritance tax is being consid-
cred but finds less favor than an in
crease in the income tax.
With respect to the tariff, there Is
no change planned at this time. save
for the extension of the sugar tariff.
The idea Of getting more revenue out
of beer and liquors finds strong favor
among the ways and means democrats.
Their present disposition is to add to
the taxes on beer and liquors This
will cause hot fight and efforts win
be made in both house and senate to
prevent the imposition of these taxes
But there will be powerful backing for
them.
The special taxes recommended by
the president in his annual message
are not we'll received by the democrat
ic members of ways and means. They
are not inclined to report in favor OF
any of them. They DO not like the
check tax. the auto tax, the gasolene
tax,, the pig iron tax or the tax on
steel manufactures.
1t is the present expectation that
there will be some modification pro-
posed of the stamp and excise taxes
now on the statute books so as to get
more revenue.
Income Tax Interest.
great deal of interest promises to
center about the income tax. Some
drastic proposals are mooted about the
capitol with respect to the surtax on
vast incomes. How far these will get
toward actual legislation remains to be
seen.
In other times there has been much
talk that heavy taxation of large in
comes would drive the possessors OF
such incomes out of the country. But
those who advocate stiff income taxes
are asking where the possessor OF a
big is to go to escape high taxes, now
that the European war has added enor-
mously to the burdens of taxation in
the belligerent European nations.

ONE DIES IN CHURCH RIOT.
Eleven State Troopers Among Injured
at Scranton, Pa,

Scranton. Pa. Jan. 17.-Rioting be-
tween rival factions at the Church of
the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Du Pont,
near here. Sunday resulted in the
death Of one man, the probable fatal
injury of two others. and the serious
injury of at least a dozen more. &c..
Knives. revolvers. and clubs played
a prominent part in the riot. eleven
state troopers being among the in
jured.
George Greizor, the dead man. was
shot thru the thigh, the bullet severing
an artery. Trooper Ross Sumer, OF
Pottsville, sustained a fracture at the
base of the skull, and Joseph Tinh. OF
Du Pont, was shot thru the lungs.
Neither is expected to live.
This church has been the scene OF
half dozen riots in as many weeks,
one faction Directing to the authority
exercised by Bishop NJ. J. Hoban. OF
the Catholic diocese of Scranton in
naming a priest to take charge of the
affairs of the church and the other
supporting him. Every time the newly
appointed priest has sought to hold
services he has been prevented from
entering the church by the opposing
faction.

AS NE GROW OLDER

our minds are quite as active as in
former years but our strength does not
respond when we need it most; perhaps
the kidneys are weak, the liver torpid,
rheumatic pains or stiffened joints
beset US, and we cannot easily throw
off the colds that winter brings.
What we need is the rich cod liver oil
in SCOTS Emulsion to renew the blood
andrarry strength to every organ Of the
body, while its glycerine soothes the res
piratoiy tract, and its hypophosphites
strengthen the excitable nerves.
Scots Emulsion is scientific oil
