REPUBLICANS AND TAXATION.

Washington, Aug. 17.-In a state
ment issued today through its presi-
dent, Hon. Jonathan NJ. Bourne, Jr.,
the Republican Publicity association
takes exception to the assertion of a
staff correspondent of the New York
Tribune, who represents republican
leaders as confronted with the de-
mand of the administration for con-
tinued large appropriations, on the
one hand, and the demands of the
people for reduction of taxation on
the other, with political death as the
alternative if the reduction of taxes
is not accomplished. The statement
says;
at is altogether likely that the
correspondent of the Tribune is not
thoroughly familiar with the state of
public opinion throughout the coun-
try. Beyond question the people of
the country desire reduction of taxes
more than they desire any other one
thing just at the present time. New
ertheless, the people are intelligent
enough to understand that the pres
ent members Of congress are not re-
spOnsible for conditions which make
Immediate reduction of taxes practi-
eally impossible. If the country is
to make a choice between the candi-
dates of party which does not re-
duce taxes Immediately and the can
aidate of a party which made that re-
duction impossible, they will undoubt-
eddy choose the former.
Both congress and the officials of
the executive departments are en-
deavoring to find every possible
means Of curtailing public expendi-
lures in order to pave the way for
reduced taxation. and with hope of
success, but it has been long under

fairs that many fixed and unavoid-

A PUBLICITY SUGGESTION

Mr.. Harris Bottle, chief clerk, Tus-

the following suggestions.
Publicity, nationwide and thor

toward educating everybody toward

even throws off a revenue.
