Harry f. Smith, grain supervisor OF

Mr. Smith declared that limiting
the amount that one man could hold

600 bushels of grain would cure

What would prevent twenty or

Mr.. Smith replied that there were

present looked on with the utmost fun
and amusement while General Lacey
of course enjoyed the occasion to the
utmost.
1t was some time aftcrward that
McClintock regained consciousness
and before he learned from the others
the sport that had been made Of him
by General Lacey.
Remembrance ,of the jim Downs
joke that Lacey had told on him also
came to his memory and his wrath
was loud and strong. He swore then
and there that he would kill Lacey on
sight, since that gentleman had left
the scene some time previous.
II is said that he carried his gun
about with him for weeks waiting for
n chance to get Lacey and that gen.
tleman very prudently kept out Of his
way although McClintock's wrath
worried him greatly. After long
time McClintock's wrath was ap-
peaSed.
Cured Him of Liquor Habit.
The joke did good in one sense
though in that it acted rs 4 complete
liquor cure for McClintock. 1t is said
that from the very time he awoke
from his stupor and found himself ly-
ing on the cooling" board with Il sill
yer piece on each, eye until the day Of
his death he never touched another
drop Of liquor.
General Lacey, it is said, loved his
joke until the time Of his death but
after his experience with McClintock
he was very careful about who he
iokcd with and how far he allowed the
joke TO go.-J. D. G..

since he died Il few days ago than any

A recent issue of the New York

TAX REDUCTION DEMANDED.
congressman Receiving Thousands oi
Letters Every Day.

Letters Every Ddy.
Pressure from the folks back home"
to cut down taxes, expressed through
thousands of letters received daily by
senators and congressmen-some of
them pleading, some threatening-is
causing congress more worry and per-
plexity than did the problems Of war,
writes Harry =. Hunt, Washington
newspaper man.
In the face Of fixed charges on ma
tional debt and the expense Of main-
tanning an adequate army and navy
through the period sof readjustment
following the war, it seems impossible
to make a reduction in taxes sufficient
to satisfy public clamor.
Pressure for relief from heavy tax
burdens caused the senate to cut out
of the navy appropriation bill money
for the proposed navy base at Alamo
da, Cal.
It was the same pressure that lined
up the senate in favor Of Senator Bo,-
r,h's proposal that the president be re-
qucsted to open negotiations with
Great Britain and Japan for an agree
ment to limit naval construction.
The same pressure is causing the ad-
ministration to view favorably the pro-
ppsal to fund the governments iloat-
ing debt through a new. bond issue so
it will not have to be met out Of cur
rent taxes within the next three years.
*E+
Next to reducing taxation, congress
is interested in Disgusting taxation
Any plan that will raise money with
the least irritation to the man who
pays it finds support.
Close friends express concern for the
health of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge,
chairman of the foreign affairs COM
mittee and leader of the anti-league of
M; tions fight.
Lodge, ut II, appears worn and frall.
He has put in many strenuous days in
the past three years. He still sticks
close to committee work and to pro-
ceedingS on the floor.
He ought to be home in bed one
friend declared. Hes Il sick man."
What are few strong words be-
tween friends? Senator Frelinghuysen
went to see Attorney General Daugh-
crty the other day about sume patron
age. Tho senator was reported to feel
that he had been walked on by the
cabinet members. Loud language.
Somebody swore. Somebody called
somebody else strong names. The sto-
ry was printed and later Daughcrty
was asked about it.
"Frelinghuysen and I are good
friends" Daughcrty answered. I'VE
understand each other"
True. strong names arc sometimes
used as tokens Of affection hctwcen
bosom pals. Maybe that was how il
happened.

WORK TO FREE ALASKA
Seattle Times.)

The agitation for new steamship lines to Alaska, while dictated by natural desire in Portland and San Francisco to effect closer transporta- ton relations with the Territory, must appeal to persons acquainted with conditions as economically absurd.
 At the time when Alaska was grow ing in population, with new mining properties opened up and prospecting going forward on a big scale, efforts to establish steamship lines from the cities of Portland and San Francis co failed. These cities simply were not in position to compete success fully for the Alaska trade. They could get better and more frequent service through Seattle and Seattle lines than they could get through lines running directly to Northern ports.
 Conditions in Alaska have changed if anything for the worse. There cer- tainly is no more business now than formerly. If Portland and San Fan cisco steamship companies could not succeed previously, they certainly cannot be operated at profit now.
 If the Southern cities desire to ren- der establishment of direct steamship

service possible, let them work for the upbuilding of the Territory by striking from its limbs the shackies of red tape that now hold it helpless. That is what Seattle has done con- stantly and is still doing.
 If Alaska's business can be doubled or trebled-and there is no reason why it should not be increased five or tenfold-there will be sufficient trade to justify new steamship experiments. They uight not succeed, even then; but at least, they would have a chance to succeed.
 There is enough of potential wealth in the Northland to give every port on the Pacific Coast an accession of busi enough to support hundreds of thousands of hust!ing Alaskan r. si- dents in corfort and even in luxury. The primary need is the opening up of the Territory so that this wealth may attract settlers. encourage capr- tai and develop industries.
 Nothing will be gained by striving to undermine Seattle's Alaska busi ness. In the first place, the effort will be vain; and, in the second place, greater results will be achieved by the united drive of all the Pacific Coast communities to unshackle the North ern Empire.
