Proposed Auto Taxes.

Washington.--A federal gradu.
ated excise tax on the use OF auto.
mobiles running from SIoa year
on cars originally retailcd at not
exceeding $500 to 500 tax on
$4,000 cars, and 5000 additional for
each $500 above $4,000, was agreed
to last week by the house ways and
means committee which is framing
the new 5000, 900. 900 revenue
bill.
The tax applies directly to the
owners, while the tax of 10 per
cent on gross sales of automobiles
and per cent on gross sales OF
auto trucks, agreed to, applies to
manufacturers and importers. The
tax on use of cars. is based on the
original retail listed price of the
cars, regardless of the year of
nunukn|buLCs
The committee also agreed to a
tax of 2 cents per gallon on the
production of gasoline and a
federal excise tax of IS year on
the use of motorcycles. Members
of the committee stated that while
the manufacturers tax and the
owners tax are differentiated, it is
generally believed the owners ulti-
mately will have to pay all the tax,
the manufacturers passing on the
tax in increased prices. The auto
mobile and motorcycle excise tax
is expected to yield approximately
$I25, 900, 900, and the gasoline tax
S45, 900, 900.

Up to within few days of the
closing day for filing only one or
two candidates had appeared in
the north end of the county and
CGur d'Alene politicians had indi-
Gated hope that this section
would take only what they offered
and that no candidates for the
Legislature would come from the
northern precincts. Some excite
ment was therefore noticed at the
county seat when legislative tickets
were filed from Spirit Lake. Rath-
drum and Athol, for both parties,
especially when it became known
that they were put forth and back
ed by the forces favoring county
division. Another element of
surprise was injected when other

GERMANS AND THE SHOTGUN

The formal protest of the German government against the use
shotcuns by the American troops is the most humorous thing we
have vet heard in connection with the war, if there can be anything
humorous in this grim business in which~we are now engaged.
For a nation that invented poison gas and liquid fire to be re-
eased upon an unsuspectng enemy, not to mention the numerous
bther atrocities corIaitted by them not only on soldiers but o N CIVIL
ans a well, to protest against the use of a shotgun on the ground
hat it causes unnecessary suffering shows what a lot of whimperlng
&ouealers these boches are. The rules adopted at the Hague conven-
ion. all forms of international law and every semblance of civilized
Ewarfare wer thrown to the winds by the Germans at the very out
set of the war. They were so certain that they were going to WIN
that they did not stop at anything, believing that as conquerors they
would dictate peace and settle all disputes in their own way, their
victims not daring to offer a protest.
But now they are beginning to realize the truth. They see that
they are licked. They have got such a bad case of the nerves that
ven al American shotgun distresses them.
AS a matter of fact, there is nothing in any Hague convention,
which Germany has so suddenly come to regard as sacred, or any
other international agreement or understanding, that woulo Iorpio
the use of shotguns in warfare.
tt is a well known principle In war that a wounded man Is Det-
ter than a dead man. The wounded man is not only put out of action
himself but it requires one or two men who are not wounded to take
him from the field and escort him to the rear for treatment. Wounded
men clog the line Of transportation, fill up the hospitals, keep the
doctors busy, use up supplies, require food, and help to demoralzeI
the people back home. The American shotgun performs this work to
perfection, hence the German squeal.
The United States does not intend to stop using the shotgun
and if the Hun starts any reprisals, as he threatens to do, the United
States has about ten German prisoners to every one American held
ty the enemy, so that they will not get very far with their barbar1ty.
If the Germans have nothing worse than the American shotgun
40 contend with they are well off compared with what the allies have
Had to face for the past four years.

SACRIFICE TO BUY BONDS

An important fact to be remembered about this Liberty Loan
campaign is that the banks will lend you money to buy the bonds at
the same rate Of interest that the government pays you on the bonds,
taking the bonds a security. After the first three months a half per
cent is added to cover expenses for the handling, but even at that it
furnishes an easy way for people to buy bonds who have not the
money right at hand.
- Remember, it is not sacrificing on your part if you merely take
money that you have on hand, or transfer the money from some
hr investment to buy Liberty Bonds The idea of the government
or everybody to buy more than they have money for at the present
Re, going to the banks and borrowing the money, if necessary, and
wing the bank back as you earn the money later on.
1t is to NEE. such a situation that the banks have been urged by
government to keep their resources liquid, SO to speak, so as to
BILE to accommodate the borrowers who desire to buy bonds.
If you have $1,000 ON hand with which to buy bonds, buy $4,000
til, borrowing the additional $1,000 from the bank and putting
the bonds as security. Then, as you earn the money during the
few months you can save and pay back the bank the money that
6u have borrowed. For the first three months the bank will charge
you only 4A per cent. interest ON money borrowed for this purpose,
and after that the interest win be but 4A per cent until a year has
passed. Surely, everyone, for the sake of standing behind the boys
at the front, ought to be willing to sacrifice a little. If you have no
money at all with which to buy bonds, go to the bank and borrow a
few hundred, according to the amount you think you can save and
pay back within a year, and buy the bonds to help the government.
This is the patriotic thing to do. 1t is the least you can do in
times like these.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1918-09-30
STATE SENATORIAL SITUATION

Much depends on the count of the soldier vote today as to who
twill receive the Democratic nomination for state senator. After
nearly a week Of juggling the latest decision is that Thomas Brown
has been nominated by five majority. The margin is too small to
be accepted as final, especially in view of the delay in filing the re-
turns from some districts.
But no matter who is given the nomination now, the matter has
been SC mixed up, and SO much comment has been made and such
bitter feeling has been aroused on both sides, that the outlook is not
good for success in November. 1t hardly seems possible that the
breach that has been widening between the two forces ever since the
primary was held, due to the continued and suspicious absence of
returns from some of the polling districts, can hardly be healed in
time to put across a victory at the general election.
This is especially true in view of the apparent harmonious feel
ing Of the Republicans behind their candidate, James A. Edgar. Mr..
Edgar is a good votegetter he is well known about the county and
can be depended upon to poll the full strength of his party. Dis
gusted with the fight among the Democrats, independent voters will
be attracted to the Republican candidate and some Democrats them
selves, determined to "get square, will give their vote to the Re-
publican candidate.
Unless some very clever harmony work is done within the next
few weeks on the part of Democratic leaders, the prospects for a Re
publican victory, as far as the state s~enatorship is concerned, is very
bright in Middesex.
