A little Journey" Into History.
From the okiahoman.

An extra session of congress will be called In Nay. according to
which credits thu statement 10 a cabinet officer The hibuster ~ blockadine

vitality necessary enterprises nus pc abandoned unless means are provided
for their unctioning
their tactics vindicated, and from thu tone of he partisan press tin standpat
.maiorty in congress- will assume to dictate the character of legisa ton On the
streng Of that partys victoryla last November. The juvenile chairman of the
epubican national committee is sngulary obstreperous in insisting that the
president was epudiated at the polls n THAT the president hould in effect
abdicatei in favor of the new trustee.
1t is probable that he eNuherant Mr. Hays o Indiana not familiar with
his own parys history-with the periodical reversas it suffered during its
nure Of power-and with its consistent refusal to bow to In mandat OF the
polls with the humility he recommends to the president. The class in political
will please CON to order With he gentleman from Indiana under espe-
cal request ito give his undivided attentiont to he facts about to ne set forth:

Political Parslev.
From the Indianapolis News.

In an Indiana town where crookedness i'm city affairs has been
reigning for years. a lucrative position was offered to IA lawyer. 1t
was not because the salary itself was st large. but the possibilities
the position Offered were many. But still a string was attached and
the lawyer knew it. SO he turned down the job.
His high school son was provoked because his father had not
accepted. He grumbled about it in subtle little ways fr several
days and then one day his father came to school after the boy to
accompany him to a friend s farm. Once there he showed the de
lighted youngster all over the farm, last visiting the pen in which
the hogs were being fed for market.
The boy eyed them a few minutes and then asked: 'What is
that they are eating 81 ravcnousl y?"
The farmer answered: "Why. that s parsley. It's the best hog
fattener know of. We just turn them into q patch of parsley AID
they do the rest themselves It's too good picking for them to re
sIt. When | decide that a pig is almost ready for the market just
turn him into the parsley patch and soon he's just in the right condi-
ton to go to the Strengthening house
Its too bad they don't know whats coming to them 81 that
they stay away from the parsley patch, laughed the boy. "lm sure
His father merely looked at him for a minute and then he said
PARSLEY always looked like graft to me-very inviting, easy to get,
and plenty Of it while it lasts, and then at the end inevitably the
Strengthening pen This time the boy understood.

Tax On the Kids.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
No tax can ever hope to be popular and
no tax law can. possibly be framed to
which objections cannot be urged. In
deed. the congress which passed the pres
ent revenue act had no sooner agreed upon
it's provisions than it discovered hlunders
of policy only to be retrieved by the pas
sage OF a repeating act. Doubtless, more
plumbers will be found. and one of the
duties the new congress will he called
upon to discharge will ne the correction
OF various manifest mistakes.
One Of these. to WHICH attention has
been drawn ia the disprSsIo%rtiOnat tax on
sporting goods. This tax. which repre-
SCENTS an increase over previous rates OF
three hundred and q third per cent, is
greater than the corresponding tax on
other articles classed as luxuries, which Is
manifestly an injustice.
III professional baseball was aimed at by
congress. 1t is surely u pertinent argu-
ment for a revision of his tax to urge
that professionals buy less than one-ilalf
of ! per cent of the sporting goods made
and sold in the United states and that
more than @ per cent of the athletic goods
SOLO go to the youth Of the country, BOYS
and girls. under is years of age. Looked
at from this angle this tax is clearly at
inc expense of the kids" and is not JUS
tl,led either as a revenue producer or IN
a pert OF the national policy. s.

Lotteries and Liberty Bonds.
From the New York World

The attempt of the treasury DEPART
ment to stabilize the price of Liberty
bonds ny large purchases having failed. a
member of the New York stock exchange
suggests that at certain periods the gov
eminent redeem these securities nv
chance at l01 or lO2. the idea being that
by :; lottery of this description the mar
liet would be strengthened and sales high
ly injurious to holders prevented.
Lotteries used to be recognized not only
by governments hut by the highest social
End religious circles. They fell into dis
favor largely because of their abuse. ny
cept in Il few Latin countries they arc
noM cutiawcd. In their early DAYS the
universities of Harvard and Yale wera
klad to profit by lotteries. and some Of
the founders OF the Republic, in financial
distress, notably Thomas Jefferson. were
not averse to them.
Every United States bond carries a ser.
tal number. For lottery purposes nothing
could be better devised. Whether the nos
s,oilsty that on monthly or quarterly
drawings these securities might be ra-
deemed at a premium would do much
mere than stimulate the sporting instinct
may be doubted. but @! one thing we NAV
be sure. In tine absence of legislation nv
congress on the subject. if President Will
sons secretary of the treasury should es-
tabiisn the proposed lottery il would be-
come the painful duty of President Will
sons postmaster general to deny him the
mails and ct President Wilson'S ATTORNEY
genera! to prosecute. him.

From the Boston Transcript.


The swift rehabilitation OF the great
federal army after the end of the civil
war was one Of the best known OF public
incidents. Only a few scattering organi-
cations were left with the colors after
September-Lee's surrender having taken
place in kpril. This rehabilitation was
favored by the great demand for labor
all over the northern states. and still
more by the homestead laws. which gave
every soldier a farm of 1850 acres, which
he had (then) the privilege OF choosing
from the Richest prairtes In the world

absorbed the l.0Q0.5lS, men In the service

an editorial commenting upon the
practical disappearance of rabies from
Europe, including England. l wish we
could say as much for the efforts to

proven successful are:
i-~-Licensing of dogs.

Milking all cases Of dog bite re

Laboratories for the diagnosis of
iydronhobia.
THE obligatory sending OF dogs
suspected OF having hydrophobia Oh the
