coffee and cocoa are to yield $3.50 ,000,-
600, while postal and telegraph in
creases are estimated to return sS5,-
100000. There are also to be increases
in stamp duties. These taxes, which
are said by the newspapers to be by
the newspapers to be only a beginn
ing" are the greatest in amount ever
asked from German taxpayers. The
Finance Minister describes the taxes
as mainly aimed against only the
richer classes"

SETTLED BY MEDIATION

Fort Wayne, Ind.-The building
contractors violated an agreement
they had with Structural Workers
union by giving their work to labor
ers. When the protests of the iron
workers were ignored, they ceased
work. The other building trades
unions supported the contention of
the iron workers and urged a settle
ment of the trouble. In reply to that
demand the contractors locked out
the other crafts. A government
mediator was sent for, and, after
learning both sides, decided in favor
of the iron workers, and ordered all
men back to work. An agreement
was then reached whereby all dis
putes will be arbitrated during the
war.

secretaries of the local unions of the
northwest territory, which includes
Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Montana
and British Columbia This meeting
follows the resolutions passed in the

LIVE AND LET LIVE

Labor's Emergency Liberty League
raises, in its advertisement elsewhere
in this issue, a question concerning
the right to drink, or not to drink,
which appears to delve deep. The
point raised is, briefly, that while the
Prohibitionist scruples not to deprive
the workingman Of his glass of beer
or wine, the workingman has no mind
to retaliate in kind. Nor is this all.
Should it be proposed that abstainers
be compelled to quit their tea or
coffee for beer or wine, these same
workingmen would be among the first
to defend them in their right to say
for themselves what shall be their
beverages.
This is the spirit of tolerance, the
spirit of good will, and being such it
is Of the essence Of liberty. COncede
that the motives of such abstainers
as would by force of law, rather than
by precept and example, make all
others abStalnerS, are not to be I'M
peached; concede that their prohibi-
tory ideas are in themselves good,
and that men could be made teeto-
talers by law; but is there not some
thing higher, something of greater
Importance to society? Assuredly.
And that something is liberty, the
right of every individual member Of
society, subject, however, to its COM
plete deprivation if in grave measure
he abuse it, to be the captain of his
own soul.
Better England free than England
sober, declared a famous English
Bishop; and who will not agree that
in so saying he plumbed the very
depths of the question?

4O,98O ACCIDENTS.

Madison, Wis.-The industrial COM
mission has prepared a table analyz-
ing the cause of industrial accidents
which occurred in Wisconsin during
the three years 1915, 1916 and 1917.
During this time, 40,980 accident oc-
Cured which caused a disability of
more than seven days duration. In
SIT cases death resulted from the in
jury. The total working time lost be-
cause of these accidents was 5,951,-
838 days. This means that the total
wage loss to workmen in Wisconsin
because of accidents during these
three years was between $12,OOO,OOO
and $15,OO0,000.

OWNERS OF BANK STOCKS

Chicag0.-According to figures pub
lshed in the Post the fact is re-
vealed who owns and controls many
of the banks of this city. From these
facts it is evident that in order to get
accommodation when badly needed
it will be necessary to be in good
with the parties named. A careful
perusal will give the ordinary person
food for serious consideration. The
list follows:
The Norman w. Harris estate re-
tains it's rank as the largest single
owner of Chicago bank stocks, it
being listed as having holdings in
five institutions amounting to $685.
go. Edward F. Swift holds stock in
nineteen banks of a par value of
$1,1O0,OO0, while James A. Patten
holds stock in IL banks and j. Ogden
Armour in ten banks, the latter's
holdings being valued at $3.50, 100.
E. H. Gary, of the United States
Steel corporation is down for $1,5O8,-
9OO distributed among four banks.
Ira n. Morris owns stock in 10 banks
and A. G.. Becker in %, although
Becker's total is only $627,00O. Louis
f. Swift is the owner Of stock in
II banks. The Marshall Field estate
is credited with interest in banks,
while the Edward Morris estate is
down for seven banks, George AIDE
the humorist, is listed as the owner
Of % shares Of the Continental and
Commercial National Bank.
Swift and company has put on the
market $60,000,000 per cent debent-
ure bonds, all of which have been
taken up by the bankers. In view Of
the number Of bank stocks held by
that company's representatives IN
Chicago banks, and probably in bank
ing institutions in other cities, it is
not an unfair assumption that there
is a method for the sale of the bonds
at this time The recent investiga-
tion into that company's affairs by
government officials and the start
ling revelations that followed would
indicate that retaliation might be the
moving cause for the sale of the
bonds at this time. The investment
of such a vast sum will greatly re-
duce the capital from which the next
government bond issue will be avail
able as we'll as tend to force an in
crease in the interest rates. That
that action would seem probable,
when it is recalled that the company,
according to recent reports, has large
surplus capital at its command.
