The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1918-03-08

Captain C. F. Burke, of st. Paul,
Mimi, was in Tarpon Springs regis
tered at The Inn day before yesterday.
He came in his yacht, the "Minneso-
ta," which he had to leave out at the
anchorage inside of Anclote key as
she was too large to get up the river,
being 81 feet long and drawing five
feet of water. Mr.. Burke said he had
been on the yacht for the past eigh-
teen months, and he looked it, being
bronzed and healthy. He is one of
those men who have nothing to do but
spend their money, and we hope he de-
cides to return to Tarpon Springs.

THE LAMP AND NOT THE TORCH.

THE LAMP AND NOT THE TORCH
With the kaiser a fugitive, his throne
gone, his imperial moustache points
dropping, Germany is crying for speedy
signing of the peace terms to keep her
people from starving The natural i'm
pulse is for us to say: Thou hast said
that he was God let thy God protect
thee"
Scorn is the natural expression that
comes with the hour. But it must be
righteous scorn. 1t must not. be a
scorn which would leave German babe
to die because an Armenian babe died.
1t was the antithesis of this idea that we
fought in the war, if President Wilson
expressed the heart and mind of the
United States, as he did Without any
expression of maudlin sympathy, the
Christian world will recognize that a
spectre is the same whether it appears
before the innocent i'll Germany or be-
fore the innocent in Armenia. To think
otherwise is to think as the Indian and
Turk think.
The truly great revenge will be to
show to the German common people the
great error they labored under at the
behest of their leaders, as followers of
the German kulture, as mad Molochs.
The truly great revenge will make them
pay pound for pound, stone for stone,
for ruined Belgium. But the truly great
revenge must not take the lives of babes
in the streets, of Berlin either BY the
sword or by, starvation, which IS worse
than the sword,sbecause babes i'll Bel
GUM died with bayonets through their
tender flesh We must make this great
distinction between the guilty and the
innocent upon. which the law rests.
The peace terms will be as the war
was-firm, decisive and like the mills of
the gods. But the thought of destruc-
ton must with the cessation of war also
perish with the sword-Pend D'Oreille

NEf EAlbEh otn Is the lUfh an

Lafayette was mere boy Of twenty
when he left his young wife In France
and at his own expense came to this
country and presented himself to con.
gress and offered his services wher,
they would be best suited for the
cause In hand.
Lafayette received his first impress.
sions Of the American struggle for lib
erty while he was stationed at Metz.
Undoubtedly he was led to apply To the
American commissioners at Paris,
among whom was Franklin, through
his recollection OF the loss of Canada
10 France. II was at the same time
that he, an aristOcrat, began TO under.
stand the common people. Certainly
from the first moment Of his landing
In America until the end OF his days
he was most democratic In his deal
ings with all men.
When he appeared before Franklin
and Deane and desired to offer his
sword to America he was dissuaded.
He was told that, in the first place,
there was no ship to take him, and TO
that he answered that he would char.
ter vessel himself and at the same
time supply II and also take any com.
munications the commissioners had for
America.
Won commlssionerS Sanction.
There was no other answer 10 per-
severing, courageous and generous
young soldier than to accept his offer.
He gladly embraced the opportunity
to lend his aid and also invited sev.
eral other dashlng young Frenchmen
to accompany him.
He was as good as his word, and In
due time he and his ship arrived on
this side Of the Atlantic. Congress
read with interest his recommenda.
lions from Franklin. and they agreed to
the single proviso In his offer, which
was that he, on account Of his posi-.
tion, was to receive the commission
as q general officer and he was TO be
free to answer any summons Of his
king. But at the same time he stipu-
lated that he was to serve without
any emolument.
II was about the middle Of April,
1777 that the young nobleman arrived
In South Carolina. and II was In July
that congress gave him his commits

then some weeks less than twenty

AND TOBACCO ARE
SPECIALLY CHOSEN.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The war tax
on amusement admissions and on
club dues will be doubled in the new
revenue bill. This was finally decid-
ed this afternoon by the house ways
and mean committee which is franz
ing the measure. The present tax on
amusement admissions is ten per ct.
and the rate on club dues is ten per
ct. when the dues are more than $12
a year.
The committee also decided to levy
a heavier tax on tobacco, although
the exact figures were not adopted.
The suggestion Of the treasury de-
partment that the tax be doubled was
rejected.
At present tobacco taxes raise $170,-
100000 a year an dmembers of the
committee believe that they should be
made to net $500, 600, 900. This does
not mean that the tax must necessar-
lily be tripled, for a retail tax will be
added, where now only manufacture
ers are levied on.
1t was pointed out that by this sys-
tenn it would be possible to straight
en- out the inequalities that exist by
reason Of the same tax being paid on
cigarettes that retail for five cents as
on those which retail for twenty
five.

A MILLION BARRELS OF
FLOUR AT 81 A BARREL.

WASHINGTON, D. CA million bar
cinating bargain the government has
just picked up.
The millers of the country are
obliged to sell this amount at this
price because they have been profit
eering. 1t was arranged many months
ago that the millers should have a
certain margin of profit for their mil
ling including the sale of the bran
and middlings. 1t is found that very
large prices were extracted from the
farmers for these ~by-products used
to feed cattle, so that in some cases
the millers get as much as $500 a
barrel profit on flour. All this profit
must now be distributed in the form
of flour at ST a barrel to the govern
ment.
The war, with it's government regu-
lations of many lines of industry, has
brought to light some peculiar things
in the economic world. For instance,
the Federal Trade commission finds
that as much money is spent for adj
vertising flour and selling it as CON

it into barrels.

by keeping it in the public mind, and

At present all advertisements of

caused by the government regulation
of the price of flour while leaving the
b~y-products OF -four and other artic-
les unregulated. For instance, in
Minnesota it was found recently that
rye flour, which was selling at $12 a
barrel, was being diluted with
wheat flour, which was selling at SO
a barrel.
In England the price regulating
business has been more successful
than in the United States. Instead of
naming a fixed price for wheat alone.
the British government fixed prices

for a period of five years. One result
in the matter of wheat has been the
addition of four million acres to the
British wheat fields, so that the Brit
ish Islands are producing rs per cent
of their food products, where before
the war they produced less than 20
per cent.
Substitutes used in making bread
in many cases cost more than flour.
This fact was brought out recently
by a case brought before the Federal
Trade Board by the food administrat-
or and n of the principal bakers
of Omaha, Neb.
The food administrator ordered the
price OF a pound loaf reduced to z
cents, and when the Bakers ~associa-
ton refused to obey, called on the
Washington authorities to revoke the
