The question as to whether or not
the sale of liquor shall be licensed is
for the voters of the City of Sank Cen
tire to determine, and not for the per-
sons that have not the right to vote.

votes cast out are illegal. While there
was an attack made on the veracity of
one Of the parties casting one of these
votes, am satisfied to accept his
sworn declaration. Nor isn't out of the
ordinary that he was called to the
stand by the contestants. He was
subpoenaed by the contestee, and it was
only after contestants attorney re-
uuested contestee to call him and his
request was refused, that he was call

Of casting him was to lay ALL the
facts before the court.

Chicago, Aug. 20.-William d. Hay.
wood and 80 other members of the l.
W. w. were found guilty on Saturday
by Judge Lands court of disloyal acts
1t Is reported the verdict was reached
on the first ballot.
The trial was started on April 1. II
took % days TO get a jury and the
Jurymen have listened to evidence con-
tinuously for more than three months.
The verdict seemed to overwhelm the
100 defendants, many of whom appar-

the Jury's verdict they stand guilty of
conspiracy TO hamper the conduct of
the war.
When the verdict was read Haywood
started and his face became ashen.
With a sigh he sank back into his
chair.
After the verdict came in Haywood
sat silent for time, the picture of
detection. Then newspaper men asked
him for a statement. He said:
Il believe Judge Land1s lnstruc-
tons pointed clearly to an acquittal.
Well, well-we can only make the best

REVENUE BILL IS READY
House Ways and Means COMMITTEES
Decides on Compromise Of Nc
Adoo and kitchin Plans.

Washington, Aug. 23.-The drafting
of the $S,0OO,0OO.0O0 revenue bill was
practically completed on Wednesday
when the house ways and means COM
mittee tentatively adopted schedule
of excess profits taxes which is COM
promise between the Kitchin and Nc
Adoo taxation plans. The committee
adopted the McAdoo suggestion of an
so per cent war profits tax, with fiat
10 per cent exemption. The war profits
tax probably will be levied on profits
in excess of the average for the three
years Of 1911-12-13.
The excess profits schedule adopted
allows n single deduction of s per
cent.
On profits of to Is per cent tax
of 80 per cent will be levied and on
profits of from 10 to 20 per cent the
tax will be GO per cent.
On profits above 20 per cent the tax
will be 20 per cent.
The war profits and excess profits
taxes were made alternative, with
power given TO the treasury to levy
whichever in any given case will
bring the larger returns.
The schedule is only tentative, but it
is expected that 1t will be approved
and incorporated into the bill which
will be reported out.
