PILING ON TAXES.

In the course OF a vigorous speech
against q resort to cloture for the
purpose OF forwarding the Tariff bin,
this week, Senator Borah Of Idaho
made a vigorous attack on Congress
for It's failure TO grant tax relief 20 a
tax-burdened people. Coming from a
leading Republican Senator. this de-
liverance Is bound to attract attention.
Senator Borah was unusually en-
phatio. "a nation" ne said, whose
citizenship has been drugged and de-
bauched by bonuses. gratuities and
subsidies has entered upon a road
over which no nation yet has ever
beaten a successful retreat" Not one
measure is pending before Congress
he added, "the purpose Of which was
to reduce the tax burdens OF the
American people"
This Is not a partisan attack. 1t Is
an Arrangement OF a Republican Con
gress by Republican member. And Il
is the truth. No wonder the people
are in a state Of revolt, anxious e
vote this unfaithful Congress out o.
power.

CHILLY DAYS IN THE SENATE.

These are days when, though the
thermometer IS registering high alti-
tudes In most places in this country,
there are still spots which are rather
chilly, or spots in which certain In
dividuals feel rather chilly. One Of
these localities Is the United States
Senate, and one OF these individuals is
probably Senator Lodge. The Senate
already contains several political
ghosts. Senator New, OF Indiana, Is
one of them. y dead man who still
walks around is a mournful and dis
tracing spectacle. Iowa has added
another ghost to the Senatorial col
lection and North Dakota another. AS
they mingle in melancholy fashion
with some 80 others who must run
the gauntlet OF the primaries and of
elections, It must make a creepy SEN
sation run down the spines Of the
! latter. The Senatorial ghosts are per-
haps Whispering In the ears of anxious
candidates like Mr.. Lodge-"As we
are now, you soon will be-"
The Massachusetts Senator seems TO
be showing the effect of the political
cold spell and is apparently trying to
warm himself by the Anti-Lynching
bill fire which has up 10 this time re-
fused to burn in the Senate. Mr..
Lodge is using his bellows to blow II

UNCLE REMUS' BIRTHPLACE.

The tales that Tncle Remus told
the Little Boy have been translated
into many languages and recognized
as having in them something of that
essence that makes certain folk stories
imperishable. Now the home OF the
author is to be preserved as a literary
shrine. Snap Bean Farm, and the

not far from Atlanta. Both appear
in the Uncle Remus stories. The

considering the selection Of San Fran

The Democratic National Convention
OF 1920 was held there, and the ex-

memorable gathering was so pleasing
that the fame OF San Francisco as a
national convention city was spread
far and wide. True, the fate that be-
fell the nominees OF that convention
at the ensuing election is not an en-
enlargement, from a political point of
view. but this comment does not in
