 Why War Tax BiN Chauged

the necessity for raising large amount Of money through taxation
 Undoubtedly the prohibition of the manufacture of spirits for beverage purposes he said, and the com mandeering powers of the president will give to the owners of the stock of spirits now in bond and in stock a practical monopoly of the market and prices will be greatly increased"
 The higher tax on beer and wines, he said, was made necessary because there will be an enlarged market for them.
 Senator Simmons declared farmers were willing to bear their share of the war taxes and that no request for exemption from the provision of the bi had reached him from them. He told the senate that farmers had re- ceived returns for their products on the average beyond their most opti- mistic dreams, and that they would continue to reap splendid net return under the protective prices.
 Senator McCumber hss1 planned to discuss the bill, but as Senator Sim mons did not conclude until late, post poned his speech.

Don't Be Crank; Be a Self-Starter.

Don't be the sort of an employee who must
have instructions pound ed into him if they have
any effect.
Don't be the kind that must be addressed in
an angry tone if they are to be impressed
1t should be sufficient for any employer or
superior officer to pleasantly request certain SER
vices from you.
The man who must be whacked and pounded
into action is no good in any establishment, and
the soon such men get the gate the better for
their employers.
1t is too expensive to hire men to work and
then have to hire others to watch them every
minute in order that proper service may be Sc
cured.
The willing worker, the man who acts immedi-

having.
Such man gives honest service at all times,
and this is what counts in the rk-a-day

The News in The Denver Post

We've read the news from coast to coast
That's published in he Denver Post;
We've read about the awful war,
That's set the nations all ajar
We've read about the black hand crowd,
Who send their letters long and loud;
And threatening this or that they'll do,
Unless certain sum comes through.
We've read about this H. K Thaw,
His wiley sweet, and dear oldma;
And how at last he dashed his throat,
While hiding poison in his coat.
And all about Old Villas band,
That hoodlum like poutes the land;
We've read the story Ger and oer
The text seems bitter now as gore.
The sinking of the dear ship Maine,
Was once topic of great fame;
Now she's forgotten and her crew,
AS other things have come to view.
We've read about the awful storms,
Uplifting houses tres and barns;
And landing them a distance off,
Then pass right without scott
And all about the tidal waves,
That make so many Watery graves;
And how that gale and flood and flame,
Have made most notorious name.
We've read about the mad coyote,
Endangering man and dog and goat;
With venom from his deadly tooth,
It's awful but alas, the truth.
And how infantile paralysis,
Has baffled skilled analysis;
That awful plague wades through home,
Till parents often sit alone.
Now all this news from coast to coast;
Has gone widespread through the Denver Post;
These themes and more have served as text,
Heaven only knows what We'll read next.
But if we believe in the good old book
Where preachers for their sermons look;
There still will be from coast to coast
More startling news for the Denver Post.

A Picture From Life.

How often we see in our village ar
man who is bent and old;
lace that IS rough and unpleasant
That hides sad tale that's untold.
They say in his youth he was happy,
With bride so fair by his side;
And often he told her he loved her.
AS he called her his JOY and his pride.
They built home so COW, ~
Twas little nest for two; q
Where love and peace and comfort, 40
DWet with two hearts so true e.. .
Their work they planned together, :.
And love alone can confess;
Their dream of the happy future,
AS her hair he doth gently press.
But from comfort they move to mansion
Where peace and love soon subside;
And now to look into their life
There is sorrow too deep to describe
We find he has fallen to drinking,
His new friends have led him away;
He has gone out alone into darkness
He's away from his home night and day.
Oh, why does he wander on this way?
Why doesn't he turn from his sin?
His old friends he fances will shun him,
But his new friend will welcome him in.
his young wife alone is heart broken,
Her love for him never grows cold;
AS she prays for him always in earnest
To return the same love as of old.
He has gone, he cares not for her pleading,
His money and wife he has spent;
His money in gambling and drink
While his wife to the grave he has sent
What care his new friends for his sorrow?
Twas his money alone that they craved,
While his wife, who had loved him so dearly,
Is sleeping alas in her grave.
This is why we now see him wandering
A tramp in the street all alone;
His life he would give with pleasure,
If he had just place to call home.

Residents on Warren street, near

of one of the tenements of the large
block of houses to be on fire.
A pedestrian, alarmed at the spread
of the flames which were easily seen
running along a f1imsy curtain, has
tened to a basement doorway 70 inform
the occupants. After considerable
pounding the door was opened.
what do you want?" queried the
householder.
"Your house is on fire" fairly
screamed the pedestrian.
All that greeted the assertion was
slammed door. \
After considerable more knocking
the tenants of the house finally con-
scented to come to the sidewalk and
look upwards. What they saw caus-

er's bedding was found to be on fire.
A bucket brigade quenched the rapid

ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
GOV. ToMPKIN's SPEECH.
(Continued.)

1t has presented with some triumph
to the world, the refutation of an
opinion which denied to republics
capacity to resist the assaults of eX-
terror hostility; and it has practical
ly shown that a free nation; not only
destitute of the system; the science
and the experience which give per-
lection to military operations. but de-
prived even of the signal benefits re-
sulting from unanimity, has been able
to resist with success the most des-
perate efforts of the enemy endured
to war, and possessing all the advan-
rfages of veteran force and experience
ed generals.
In becoming a belligerent, the gov
eminent Of the United States consult
ed alone the, respect she owed her
self and assumed an attitude demand
ed by her wrongs, her honor and re-
gard to her permanent prosperity,
which made war necessary to the ac-
complement of a peace which
should again restore, upon an equit-
able basis, the long disturbed rela-
tions of amity and commerce. But
among the events growing out Of the
late war, we cannot too much appre-
ciate the elevation of the American
character and the pleasing contrast
with. periods anterior to It's declara
ton. Remote from the collisions of
Europe, her political influence in the
scale Of nations was scarcely felt; but
the spirit with which she resisted the
novel and unauthorized pretensions
of disguised hostility; the firmness
with which she maintained san
culinary and perilous contest, and the
moderation she has shown after the
causes OF. the war had, by subsequent
events been essentially removed, in
the arrangement of a peace. emanat-
ing principally from her valor, and
resources, have given her rank in
the convention of nations, which can
not fail effectually to guarantee the
continuance of her pacific relations.

OF Mann Law IS
A STRINGENT ONE
Delaney Says It Gould Pro
hibit Buying Train Fare
for Ones Wife

Few persons in Connecticut realize
to-day what the supreme court decis-
ion rendered yesterday in the briggs
Caminetti case, really means, said
City Prosecutor Alexander l.. De-
Laney, today.
THE law in it's reading, now fully
confirmed by the highest tribunal,
means that no male person is actually
safe in furnishing transportation by
train, boat or even automobile to an
other state to female whether it be
friend, wife or relative.
Where the practice among prose
cutors in this state has been to try
complaints of women under the state
laws governing adultery and other
minor charges, there is no option to-
day when the case originates from
another state but to turn the charges
over to the prosecutor of the United
States District Court at Hartford.
$50 broad is the law in it's reading
and interpretations which have been
placed upon it that even the con-
Quoting of a female-friend, mother,
wife or sister-to a shore-house in
New York, Rhode Island or 'Massa-
chusetts where the woman may be-
come intoxicated, may invoke the law
and result in a state prison sentence
Of five years, fine Of $4,000 or both,
at the discretion Of the court.
while no act of immortality may
have been performed, the law is so
broad in it's specific form that even
the intent to debauch or make ina
moral a. woman taken from one state
to another, or whose transportation
has been furnished wholly or in part,
is considered a felony and becomes
prosecute ble.'
AS result of the decision yester-
day all complaints relating to women,
where transportation, immortality or
debauchery has been accomplished
or was intended including the numer-
Gus complaints of adultery common
ly tried in the city courts, will here
after become federal offenses in this
and other cities in Connecticut.
