The Democratic Party.

! Every thoughtful citizen in the
country desires the reorganization OF
the democratic party on bass OF
Intelligent and virile leadership. The
permanent continuance of the politi-
cal cleavage as it was disclosed at
tho polls in November would be a
national calamity. This is a govern
ment of parties under the law, and
the friction which they produce In
competition is essential to good gov
ernment
! The present undertaking OF the
democratic official organization to
prepare now for the future is based
ion a wrong vision. 1t is fight be-
tween men Of ambition, who are out
to control. and not fight between
Opposing principles. The rank and
Ale Of the democratic voters Of the
country are not Interested in the vic
tory of any one Of the three men. Cox.
McAdoo and Bryan, over the other
1.-TWO. and that is just what all this
bother is about
! The defeat Of the democratic party
last fall, principally at the hands of
| it's own membership. was administered
because democratic leadership had
ceased to be democratic. There Is no
place for the democratic party in this
country unless 1t deals with demo-
cratic principles of control as they
!have been preached since the days of
Jefferson. There is no magic in the
names OF Cox, McAdOo ana Bryan un-
less they are linked up with sound
democratic doctrine. The future Of
the democratic party. therefore. de-
pends upon the revival Of the doctrine
and not the revival of personalities.

FACTS CONCERNING
INCOME TAX

Births, deaths and marriages
during the year 1920 affect mater
tally income tax returns for the
year.
Millions of babies were added to
family circles, each of whom bring
an exemption of $500 in the par
ents income tax returns for the
yC3r.
Widows and widowers who lost
their husbands or wives d1lrinr
the year are especially affected.
They are single for the purposes
of the income tax law and are
Granted only an exemption of
$1,000 unless the head of a family.
Persons who were divorced or
separated by mutual agreement
during the year also must consid
er themselves as single persons.
The status of the taxpayer on
December 81, 1921, determined the
amount of exemptions. If on that
day the taxpayer was married and
living with wife or husband, claim
may be made for the $4,000 exemp-
tion. If single or married and not
living with wife or husband on
December 81, the exemption is only
$1,000.
Persons who reached majority
during the year and whose earn
ings for that period amounted to
$1,000 or more, or S2000~or more, ac-
cordinp to their marital status
must file a return and pay tax
on their net income in excess of
| those amounts.
To avoid penalty, the return
mustbe in the hands of the Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue for tho
district in which the taxpayer is
living, or has his principal riace of
business, o.. or before midnight of
March Is, 1921.
