greatest hit of the evening, and II
was roundly applauded.
Senator Dubois, speaking on,
present Day Democracy" stated
that It is so plain and simple that
strong men of the party agree readi-
ly and that the Republicans are ut
variance among themselves. That at
the st. Louis convention next June,
Woodrow Wilson will be nominated
for president without roll call.
That he is the one great leader of
all and the party Is not divided upon
the question of candidates. That the
Republicans are divided as to who
shall lead them. That is 1t long
step from Taft to Roosevelt and from
Borah to Root, and no matter which
one of them is nominated those who
favored the other extreme will be
peeved. Mr.. Dubois said the big men
of the Democratic party are permit
ed to contribute to the campaign
fund, while the big men of the Re-
publican party contribute and abso-
luteiy dictate to the party. He said
he was qualified to speak. on these
matters for he had once occupied q
place on the Republican steering
committee and had afterward held
such place on the Democratic steer
ing committee, and he could qualify
as an expert to give opinions on those
matters. He paid high tribute to
County Chairman F. e. DeKay for
giving this social event to local
Democrats. and said that these things
are important steps in the campaign;
that more such meetings are needed
and that they are what is necessary
to do the work of winning the next
election. He hoped all Democrats
would support president Wilson, the
man who had kept us out of war,
while Europe had lost it's head; that
when they become normal again,
President Wilson will perhaps call
them to account for their offenses
against American citizens
Mr.. DeKay was called upon for a
speech, but he simply said he was
glad to see them together, and if they
had enjoyed the occasionI he was
happy over it. A vote of thanks was
given him by unanimous vote.

NOTHING DOING FOR HIM

Decatur, Ill.-zOut of work and
thinking to find employment at his
trade while serving in the United
States Marine Corps, John Haley
aged 22 years, today applied for en-
listment with Uncle Sans sea sold

English, in charge Of the local re-
.cruiting office of the marine corps.

OPTIMISM AND
LABOR

The Standrod bank sent letter
to their depositors this week giving
some information about the live
stock in the United States, valued
at over five billion dollars, nearly
six billion. If invested in horses at
800 each and stood in two lines like
a long team, they would more than
reach around the world.
In summing it up, Mr.. Fisher
states that optimism and labor are
the great dependable factors in pro-
ducing wealth and making advance
ment. We take this occasion to say
THAT live stock, optimism and labor
are what we need to add a dollar
an acre to the crop yield of Bingham
county and these three elements will
do it as certainly as they are applied.

who have been using her name In
the widow form, MRS. Lulu Shop
herd now learn that she has hus-
band and that all is not we'll in
Shepherdom.
Judge Goodwin, who differs with
her somewhat as to the effect OF her
work and of following her advice on
the matters she lectures on, has the
following to say about it:
Rather Personal
During the holidays our old
friend Lulu Shepherd celebrated the
gladstone occasion by filing suit for
divorce against Edward E. Shepherd,
claiming desertion, beginning on Oc-
tober, 1914, and failure 70 provide.
The defendant admits the service on
December 81, and valves the right
to answer the complaint. George F.
Goodwin, whose views concerning the
liquor question exactly coincide with
Mrs. Shepherds, is her attorney.
So apparently, all is not smooth
sailing in the lives of "reformers'
any more than it is in the existence
OF common ordinary beings. 1t is a
matter of some surprise, however,
to note that the charge is desertion,
for how any husband, no matter how
we'll meaning can keep up with a
wife flying around the country telling
other people how to behave, is a mat
ter of conjecture. He would have
to be built on the order of a Packard
Twin s" or something akin to that
and even then, might fail in his duty
to follow the pace or at his business
at home, unless there was sufficient
remuneration for the lily white lee
turer to keep the transient larder
full.
"The life of mere man to anyone
bent on advancing propaganda OF
radical reform, would be SO exciting
we imagine, that it wouldn't take
long for him to be placed in posi-
ton where he might be sued for de-
sertion and non-support."

Royalties on Plays Released for
Screen Will Run to About
$3.50, 900 Yearly

For some time past the leading

knights of the penf tor the privilege
of screening their works At the pres

cure the services Of the leading play
| wrights for exclusive screen work.
George Broadnurst has but recently
been secured by the Oliver Morosco
Photoplay Company His offerings
are released through Paramount Ser
vice. The Morosco company has Sc
cured the rights to q large number of
Broadhurst's stage successes and also
to anything he may produce for num-
Der of years to comelfa .
Features that will be released from
time to time from the Morosco studios
as a result of this affiliation include:
THE American Lord" The Wrong

According to a telegram sent out by
the Morosco company upon the sign
ing of the contract with. Broadhurst,
the royalties of Broadhurst amount to
more than $15O,O00 yearly, and he was
only secured by this concern after
spirited financial contest with other
leading companies.
Probably the most important fact
uncovered by this deal is the rapid
strides of the silent drama. A few
years ago the man who suggested Sc.
curing the services of such man and
paying such a figure for the services
would have been considered fit sub

While this is by all means the larg.
est deal of its kind thus far consum-
mated and the check handed to Broad

ments was probably the largest check
ever handed to an author for his ser
vices, there is no telling where the
end will be.

INCOME TAN RESULTS.

Both the prosperous condition OF the
country generally and the Ealue u
the income tax as a revenue measure
are indicated by the report OF the
Commissioner Of Internal revenue
This shows that during the nscal
wear 1916 receipts from the lndlVldual
income fax aggregated 100000, as
compared with $4f,0OO,0OO for 1913
and from the corporation income tax
s5e 900 600. as compared with $39,QOo,-
600. The increase in both was worth
more than $44,000,0O0, 1916 over
1915. The total amount received
from both sources was nearly $l2',-
100000.
This. of course, represents the re-
ceipts from the l per cent. normal TAX
which applied this year. and which
has been increased for next year TO :
per cent. With the increa jed add
tional taxes next year, if the country
remains prosperous, the total receipts
from the income tax ought to be roll
siderably more than doubled. lhen
we shall have reached a situation
where the income tax almost II not
quite will equal the average OF Gus
toms receipts in recent years. If. as
ought to be done, the exemption fig
ures were lowered, the rates could De
proportionately reduced with the same
satisfactory result from the revenue
standpoint.
For a variety of reasons we can be
glad that the income tax is assuming
this important part in the nations
revenue scheme The customs tax,
though indirect, falls heaviest on the
comparatively poor. the income tax
on those better able to bear it. The
latter has been efficiently administer
ed. and without the OffensiVeness IN
it's inquisitorial features which some
had feared. BY detracting from the
importance of the tariff as revenue
producer it increases the possibility
of that issue being taken measureably
out Of politics, and we may in time
reach the desired goal of piece-meal
tariff changes, based upon the recon-
mendations of nonpartisan tariff
commission. Speed the day
One man in Maryland and l2O III the
entire country paid taxes this year OF
incomes of 81 100000 a year or over.
But the great bulk OF receipts came
from individuals with incomes be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. In all more
than $1,000 individuals paid the per
so1al TX. Beyond question the i'll
come tax, has justified itself 1t will
be improved in the future. but III all
probability, it will never be aban-
dcned Sun.
