 nurpose to have the bill ready for the Senate when Congress recon venes September 21.
 It was understood that Senator Smoot. republican, Utah, informed the committee today that he would present his sales tax plan. There also has been some talk of a pro- posal for a manufacturers tax on limited scale but some of the ma jority leaders do not believe these will be incorporated in the measure as finally drafted.
 Chairman Penrose said, however, that the position taken by Postmas- ter General Hays in an address last night at Cleveland that eventually the government should raise more Of its revenue through some form ot direct tax on the production or con sumption of goods was a logical one. He added that the law now in the making would not always remain on the sta sate books and that it was designated primarily to afford speedy relief from burdensome war taxes.

Spelling AN Abb

The Fargo Courier News of last Friday, election
day, did a very injudicious thing in spelling the
chances for an albi in case of an election defeat.
There have been indications of the disposition TO at
tribute the administration defeat to the smaller vote
which was cast this year than a year ago, and in
terences have been drawn that all the independents
turned out in full force and voted, while enough of
the Leaguers were detained at home by bad wSath-
e, bad roads, and other unfavorable' conditions to
reduce the total vote of their faction.
The Courier News discussed the probabilities
as to the size of the total vote, and it expressed it.
self as follows: "As a matter of fact, few election
sharps believe the total vote will reach 200, 900. The
total last year in the presidential election, together
with state and county elections and with the absent
voters ballot in use, was around 224, 00O.".
The conditions are accurately set forth in that
statement. The Courier News is a little off in its
statement of the total vote of last year. which was
some 5000 more than this figure, but the conditions
last year were such as to bring out the maximu
vote, A presidential contest always arouses inter-
est and insures a large vote. Local contests for To-
cal offices bring into the field home candidates each
of whom has his following, and this tends to swell
the vote. We may fairly consider the vote cast un-
der normal weather conditions in a presidential cleo
ton as the maximum vote. Hence it was a foregone
conclusion that the vote this year would be very
materially smaller, not because of inability of sup
porters of the administration to get to the polls, but
because OF the lack of interest on the part of the
small percentage of the people, but a percentage
sufficiently large to insure a shrinkage of several
thousands. -
The fact is that this year the vote has been un-
expectedly large. AS these lines are written, with
IS precincts to be heard from, there are recorded
12,811 votes. The missing precincts will bring in
several thousands more, so that the falling off from
the vote of last year is likely to be less than 5 per
cent. This is entirely consistent with the turning
out Of not only as many people as could reasonably
have been expected, but ola good many more. The
state administration is recalled at an election at
tended by an unexpectedly large proportion Of the
population.

Z Henry Ford does not see why the owners of
ss.ailway stocks should receive dividends on their
stock. In answer to the suggestion that such divi-
kinds may be desired as a protection for the wives
slnd children of the stockholders he asks: "Protec-
siuasagainst what?" And he maintains that those
s1eople would be better off if not protected from
Lie thing against which he assumes protection is
5o1ght, namely, work.
No sound argument can be offered against the
ssontention that work is good for humanity, and it
n quite certain that many people would be better

beverly would have been better than wealth.

Carol was not unhappy and she wa
not exhilarated, in the st. Paul lib
rary. She slowly confessed that she
was not visibly affecting lives. She
did. at first, put into her contact with
the patrons a willingness which
should have moved words. But SO
few of these stolid worlds wanted to
be moved. When she was in charge
OF the magazine room the readers lie
not ask for suggestions about elevated
essays. They grunted, "Wanta find

books the principal query vas can

She was fond of the other libra

scores of books unnatural to her gay

F. logy with bitches of foot-notes filed

provements, treatises. upon success in
the real-estate business. She took
walks, and vas sensible about shoes
and diet. And never did she feel that
she was living.
She went to dances and suppers at
the houses Of college acquaintances.
Sometimes she one-stepped demurely;
sometimes, in dread. Of life's slipping
past, she turned. into a bachanal, her
tender yes excited, her throat tense.
as she slid down the room. :
During her three years of library
work several men showed diligent in
terest in her-the treasurer of a fur
manufacturing firm, a teacher, a
newspaper reporter, and a petty rail-
road official. None of them made her
more than pause in thought. For
months no male emerged from the
mass. Then, at the M~arbury's, she
met DR.. Will Kennicott.
