REPUBLICAN, LEADERS WANT IN
CREASED TAX Oh IMPORTS

Washington, May IA cOterie of
republican leaders are planning an at
tempt to force congress to adopt some
measure of protection through an in
crease in the duties on imports They
state that in doing so they are carry
ing out the wishes of their constitu-
ents. 1t is argued that an enormous
burden of taxation has been forced
u7on the country by the European
war and in fairness to the American
manufacturer and the American work
ingman this burden should be tighten
ed as far as possible by taxing for
eig manufacturers for the privilege
of selling their goods in the Ameri-
can market in competition with Amer
ican goods.

NO CHANCE FOR SLACkERS TO
EVADE DRAFT REGISTRATION

Washington, May 16.-Slackers who
seek to evade registration for the war
army on the day to be set by Presi-
dent Wilson can be detected easily. A
war department statement today ex-
plains that lists of persons registered
will be posted and all citizens who
know of evasions are expected TO re-
port them.
In failing to register, says the state
ment, citizen places himself cross
current to the overwhelming senti-
ment of the country as voiced by its
representatives in congress. He casts
doubt upon his courage, commits a
misdemeanor and renders himself liza
Bile to Imprisonment.

The senate passed the bill to pro-

mails and girls of the state by a vote
of 81 to 8.
A bill to regulate the sale of farm
and garden seed was introduced in the
house by Mr. Wicker of Sumter coun-
ty, which he thinks will be of greater
value to the farmers and truckers
than any legislation yet introduced.
The session in the house was equal
ly as strenuous as the session in the
senate; in fact, the entire day was
very strenuous one. Someone re-
barked this morning that it was like
two-ring circus-you couldn't possi-
bly, do justice to both"
The house gave Mcqueen Chaires
race for his money when his fores-
try bill came before that body. The
measure was strongly opposed by
Wilder, Myers and Stephens and Walk
er, and at one time it's defeat seemed
certain. Mr.. Clark of Alachua came
to Mr.. Chaires' rescue when the Sec
tion carrying an appropriation of $4,000
per annum was stricken from the bill,
and succeeded in getting the bill
amended to carry an appropriation of
$500 per annum. The bill went to
third reading.
A meeting of the third house is set
for Thursday evening in the house of

Generalization of Russian Army and
Withdrawal of German Forces From
Eastern Front Are Having
Their Effect
CHAOS IN NRUSsAFORETELL or GRAVE POSSIBILITIES

London, May 16.-The withdrawal
of the German forces from the eastern
front and the decentralization Of the
Russian army are having their effect
in France. The heavy reinforcement
OF men and guns which Field Marshal
Won Hindenberg has been able to
throw into the defense of his sorely
battered lines have for the time being,
at least, caused deadlock, which the
most furious efforts of the British and
French have failed to break.
These first fruits of the chaos in
Russia are the more ominous in the
hints they offer of future possibilities
The council of soldiers and work
mems delegates seems to have been
aroused at last to the perils of the
course it has elected to follow, but it
is a question if its awakening has not
come too late The soldiers in the
ranks evidently have the bit in their
teeth and it remains to be seen if
there is a hand strong enough to
check them from bringing about prac-
tical anarchy.
The hopeful side OF the picture is
drawn by the multiplying signs that
the political and economic crisis in
Germany is as acute as ever The ex-
traordinary measures taken by the
German censors to prevent the outside
world from learning conditions in the
empire have been largely successful,
but some facts could not be concealed.
Possibly for the first time in history
revolution and a German republic
have been openly talked about in the
Reichstag, and most significant of all
apparently the authorities do not dare
to check the growing audacity of the
radicals. In fact, the pressure of the
malcontents has become so great as
to force the government to hastily
withdraw it's refusal to permit radical
socialist delegates to attend the in
ternational socialist conference at
Stockholm.

How 70 Make Wise Purchases.

1t Is quite q problem for the public
to know where TO buy its goods. AL
merchants talk plausibly, but some
ask higher prices than others. Some
are making constant effort to get
good goods at bargain prices and
give their customers the benefit. The
others take what comes along with
out effort and trust to the public to
accept it without question.
How is the average consumer To
know which merchant can serve the
family best? Not everyone can be an
expert judge of the value Of fabrics
and foods. Most people have to take
these things somewhat on faith.
The advertising in the home news
paper furnishes the public will, the
best guide along the pitfalls OF retail
trade. The man who has enterprise
and ambition enough to advertise, has
enterprise and ambition enough VITO
make a thoro study OF his product.
to reach out for the best bargains and
supply goods at moderate prices, Also
he must have faith in his goods or he
would not spend money to back them

There were five bridge tables yes
terday. Every guest contributed 81
and also promised 20 have a four-table
bridge party Each player at the sec
ond series will give s. and promise
a party of three tables. In diminish
ing ratio the chain will proceed until
it reaches its predestined end.
The bridge chain will end on Sep
TENDER | regardless Of the state OF
its schedule. II any hostess prefers

and simply collect 81 and a promise
from each Of her potential guests.
Women in the city and beyond its

project are invited to send their names
to the committee; when they do they
will be assigned TO some chain.
ANY one who wishes 20 raise some
definite amount, such as $1,000. may
