DANGEROUS LIouIds.

Gasoline, ether and bcnzine could
not be kept on shelves in a cabinet in
the house, the national board of fire
underwriters says in recent article.
1t is exceedingly dangerous as either
gasoline or benzine gives off at ordl
nary temperature intiammable vapor.
Through these vapors, light at a
distance may ignite the liquid. II
there is small leak in the container
In which any Of the liquids are kept,
sufficient vapor may form to cause a
violent explosion. With ether the dan
ger is even greater than with gasO-
line or benzlne.

preaching neutrality, indeciSive

out Of war because we were too
proud to fight.
Ii was only when war was upon us
that the administration commenced to
arm, and the waste and extravaganza
due in part to the unnecessary haste
because of unpreparedneSs will not

OF course President Harding and
Secretary Hughes are in favor of
disarmament So are the American
people. But they propose a practical
kind of disarmament by which all the
powers will diSarm together, not a
bliSSful state of unpreparedneSs on
the part of their own country.
This is not reverting to Woodrow
Wilson's theory of unpreparedneSs,
nor is it journey into the labyrinth
of the league of nations. 1t is a
sensible effort to carry out the wishes
of the American people.
The effort by these correspondents
and news syndicates of the ultra
modern "non-partiSan' school to
throw the mantle of Woodrow Wilson
around President Harding are ingen-
iouS but not convincing.

TRUTHFUL.

In Boston they tell Of DR.. Reed
who, in his time, was one of the
prominent physicians Of that city.
His large practice included many pa
tients outside the city limits and
these he visited in his buggy.
One day, it appears, DR.. Reed
bought a new horse with which he
was greatly pleased until he discov-
cred that the beast had an insur-
mountable objection to bridges Of
all kinds and could not be made to
cross one. Now, inasmuch as at that
period it was necessary to cross cer-
tain bridges in order to reach any one
of the surrounding towns, the doctor
decided to sell the horse. He did not
think il at all necessary to mention
the animals popularity, but was
much too honest to misrepresent him.
Accordingly after due cogitation, he
inserted in a local paper the follow
ing advertisement:
For sale-A chestnut horse, war
rant sound and kind. The only rea-
son for selling is that the owner is
obliged to leave Boston. '--Philddcl-

ring to every important action of
President Harding and his cabinet as
adopting the principles of the Will
son administration In this manner
they are attempting to give the credit
for the achievements of President
Harding to the influence of their for
mer chief and patron.
When Ambassador Harvey was di-
rected to sit informally in the meet
ing of the great council they hailed
this as the adopting of Wilson's pol
icy Of interference in European af-
fairs, although in fact the foreign pol
icies of this administration and the
preceding one are as far apart as
the poles.
Every act of Secretary Hughes is
heralded by these political experts as
a resumption of the policy of Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Colby, this in spite
of the fact that in a great many of
our foreign problems the preceding
administration had developed no pol
icy whatever. Doubtless as time
goes on, if President Harding attends
the baseball games at Washington
park with any regularity, this will be
hailed too as a posthumous victory
for the influence of Mr.. Wilson.
The latest pro-Wilson propaganda
of this kind was released the other
day just after invitations had gone
out to the powers for the disarma-
ment conference here.
President Harding and Mr.. Hughes
are for unpreparedness, was the
startling announcement of these
"non-partisan' experts and it was
added that by this note to the powers
Secretary Hughes had reverted to
Woodrow Wilson's theory of disarm-
ament.
This is the first that the general
public knew that Woodrow Wilson
had any tangible theory of disarm-
ament. 1t had been the general i'm
preston that he was in favor of gen.
eral unpreparedness. That at least
was the inference which could be
fairly drawn upon the policy Of Mr..
Wilson from the breaking out of the
war in Europe until the entrance Of
America into the conflict. For three
years while the world was on fire he
sat supinely in the White House,

Ingenious, But Not
Convincing
National Republican,

Certain very clever correspondents
and news syndicates established
themselves during the eight years Of
Wilson because of various inside av-
enues Of information which were
kindly afforded them by the national
administration. Needless to say
these correspondents and syndicates
posing as non-partisan, were at all
times pro-Wilson.
Since the Republicans have come
into power in Washington they have
taken a new tack. They are still
pro-Wilson but are compelled, be-
cause Of circumstances, to try to be
more subtle. Some of them have hit
upon an ingenious, and, from their
standpoint, an excellent scheme.
They cannot criticize the present ad-
ministration without losing their
mask Of non-partisanship. So they
have adopted the expedient of refer

All the Taxes Are Paid
by All the People

One of the most preposterous of
all the demagogical claims about
taxes is that some of them are rich
mems taxes and others poor mems
taxes"
All taxes are necessarily paid by
all the people. Put a tax on rich
mans tenant house and the charge
goes into the cost upon which the
rental charge is based. Put a tax
on the manufacturer and it enters
into the cost of production which in
turn determines sales cost paid by
the customer. The cost of govern
ment under existing conditions is so
