NATURE LATEST RECRUIT
TO FORCES OF PROHIBITION

According to revenue officials in
Lexington, KY. prohibition is being
aided wen by evaporation and leak
age of whiskey which is being held
in barrels by the government. There
are 8,224,016 gallons of whiskey held
in the Lexington district alone. 1t
is valued at many millions of dollars.
Fully as much more is held in other
evenue districts in the state.
Revenue men say that in sixteen
years this whole amount will have
gone to Slaves" meaning evaporation
and leakage from the wood will leave
only the aroma. To prove this, it was
shown at the revenue office that in
1880, Paris. KY, $50 barrels of whis-
key was not bottled for fourteen
years. Then it was decided to put
it into new barrels. When the old
barrels were opened. not over two
gallons remained in each barrel. so
remorseless had been the process of
evaporation. About $4,000 gallons
have been withdrawn from Lexington
since July l for European shipments.

MURDER At WELLS
WAS COLD FLOODED


A shooting scrape, cold blodded In
character, was perpetrated at Wells
Sunday evening, the crime being COM
mitted by one Jack Monahan, an old
and familiar character about Wells
for some years past. The victim was
Slim Downs, and bad blood between
the two men is said to be the cause
of the murder. Downs was sitting
on a couch and when Monahan raised
the gun threw up his right arm and
started to leave the room. Monahan
fired, the entire charge of shot en-
tering Downs right side and result
ing in instant death. At a ranch
some twenty miles from Wells, Mona
han attempted to secure a horse,
but was unsuccessful. Sheriff Harris
followed the fugitive as far as pos
sible by a and tnsn took up the
chase on horseback, with the result
that Monahan was captured about
fifty miles from Wells in the foothills.
He made no effort to avoid capture
and did not show fght.-[Elko

PAY YOUR
DEBTS

Every progressive bank in the ma
ton is constantly urging the public
to get the habit of saving and pay
ing off its debts. Contrary to the
opinion of many, a banker is not in
terested in having a customer loaded
down with debts.
Owing debts. and being a borrower
at a bank r two different things. A
banker extends credit to enable bust
ness to be carried on. In one way
this is a debt, but it is a vastly diff
ferent debt from the kind owed by
a man who simply fails to meet his
obligations for lack of systematic
saving.
A bank must loan money to live, but
it wants to loan to people who save.
The day Of the Shylock is passed. and
the modern bank must live from pros
porous and not bankrupt communi-
ties.
George E. Roberts, ~vice-president
of the National City Bank says: 1.-THE
banker can render no better service
to the farmer than by advising him
to use the proceeds of present high
prices to pay of his debts. 1t is a

PROFITEERING
TAX

TAI
The so-called luxury tax" was de-
vised in haste to raise money quickly
during the war. With the war over
it falls far short Of its purpose, in
that it taxes the public for necessi-
ties Of life by merely calling the arti-
Gle a luxury" 1t adds much to the
cost of living Of every family and
strikes the poor hardest Of all, as the
extra tax pennies they have to dig
up eat heavily into their income.
Everyday articles of use, such as
toilet supplies and drugs, ice cream
and candy, "a hardly be called luxu-
ries and yet the tax on these and
similar articles adds materially to
cost of living today.
The wal is over and our tax prob
lens can now be faced in an intelli-
gent manner and arranged over a
period Of years instead of heaping
unnecessary loads on industry and

OFFICIAL
BANDITRY

Consciously or unconsciously, Presi.
dent Wilson, In his address to Con.
gress on the high cost of living made
a statement which is quite apt to gel
Herbert Hoover in trouble IL 1t IL
seized upon and made the basis OF
litigation. The statement is as fol-
lows: MAY 1 call attention to the
fact, also, that although the present
act prohibits proiteering, the prohi-
bition is accompanied by no penalty
until the existing state Of war be-
tween the United States and Germany
shall have terminated"
1t is a fact not generally known
that the enforcement division of the
Food Administration, in the cours OF
it's brief. but busy career, levied fines
on what it was pleased to call prof.
teers aggregating not less than S..
900, 900. This money was turned into
the United States Treasury, and it ac-
counts in large part for the fact that
the food administration was nearly
self-supporting. The methods adopted
by the enforcement division smacked
something of star chamber" proceed
ings and could not have been justified
under normal conditions. The culprit
was hauled before two or three off,
Gals seated in a small room, grilled
to a turn, and separated from a good
healthy fine and discharged with an ad-
monition. No doubt in most instances
the profteer was getting his just
deserts, but the fact remains that
it was done without warrant of law.
There was no spike in the club held
over him, but he seems not to have
known it, or fearful of making a legal
test of his case.
Those who were subjected to the
fines now have Mr.. Wilson'S word for
it that they were illegally levied, and
there is little doubt that a court OF
law would give them an action In
damages II they had the gall to brook
public opinion and resort to that
court.

A development OF war conditions In

has been the demonstration of the
possibility of making pig iron and iron
castings direct from steel scrap In an

complished before. 1t has been claimed
that such iron, cast In the form of
castings, is far superior to the same
castings made from ordinary pig iron,
melted and cast. Tests Of this new
iron recently made at Columbia uni
versity demonstrate Its high quality.
Its tensile strength was shown to be
