GREAT MEMS SONS

The political capers of young Col Roosevelt in New York do not constitute the only time in American history where the of a great father surprised the latter's admirers. Nearly 100 years ago it was James A. Hamilton, talented son of Alexander Hamilton, first Secretary of the Treasury, who wrote the paragraph in the mes sage of President Andrew Jackson which de- clared against the constitutionaty of the Ma tional Bank which his father had established. and declared shat it had not met the expectations of s founder Yonng Hamilton one of the heenc.t of 'he 1ammanY leaders of his day and 8 confidential political adviser and aid of Mar tin VaA l,Hren, Attorney General and Governor of 1is State United States Senator.

HOW LONG WILL PEOPLE STAND
 FOR IT.

Andrew j. yolstead, father of the Prohibition law defeated for reelection to Congress and then appointed legal adviser for Northwestern Pro hibition enforcement officers has announced tiiat' war is to begin against those who make beer and wine at home for home consumption. In- formation from Seattle is that the war already has started Prohibition enforcement Officers, to the number of ten without search warrants, re- gently entered several houses ill that city and upset things generally. In instance they found some boards where the floor of cellar had been repaired that looked newer than the remainder of the floor. They took these up and dug lot of dirt out of the ground. They found no liquor in the cellar elsewhere and found no evidence that there had been any there Everything justified the assurance the house- wife gave the burglarous officials that there had been liquor home made or otherwise n the house for the five years that she had resided in it. They finally left the house with the cellar floor filtered with the boards they had torn up and the dirt they had dug out of the ground for the home to replace or pay for having replaced. They went to several other houses in the neighborhood and performed similarly and discovered similar condition.
 It seems to be almost the universal rule for Prohibition enforcement officials to proceed in this wise and when someone acting within his clear rights. forceably resents the unlawful en- trance into his home, he may be shot on the spot And the Federal Government backs up the killers.
 If any representative of the American people in Congress complains about this sort of treat inent the Board of Temperance Prohibition and Public Morals of the Methodist Church, the Anti Saloon League and other church organizations set the hooded and sheeted K. K. K. out to prepare a political grave for hm--or worse.
 How long are free-born citizens of the Amer ican Republic going to stand for this sort of thingP

 An important change in Pacific Northwest newspaper activities is set out in the announce ment that James A. Wood has become Associate Editor of Seattle Times. in charge of it's editorial columns No better more fitting selection for that responsible position could have been made It is appropriate. too in this respect that Mir. Wood rejoins newspaper organization with which he connected ill its formative period and to which he gave definite impetus at that time There is small need to speak of i,ls high abilities. for they are we'll known He commands able pen, which becomes graceful or trenchant at will; and he is especially qualified from long acquaintance with the Pacific North west it's leading men, it's politics its policies and aspirations. Long ago the Spokane Chronicle was the proving ground for this mature editor, then a stripling. subsequently, he joined the staff of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, when it was real editorial power; he went to The Times as City Editor became Director of Exploitation of the Alaska Yukon -Pacigs Expositiop Editor of Town Crier, at length Editor-in-Chief of the Post-ln- telligencer, and more recently Manager or the Seattle Bureau of the Portland Oregonian. Mir Wood on The Times will add to the reputation he already possesses as writer of distinction land power

President Cosgravc Again.
Manchester Guardian.l

The newly elected Dal of the Irish Free State met on Tuesday and elected MT. Cosgrave as President of the Executive Council by majority of six votes. The debate did not promise happily for the reinstated Government With so tiny a majority Cabinet can sail safely only on calm waters. Tuesdays debate contained storm warn ings which should be needed by all who desire ouietness and development in Ireland. The Labor Party in the Dali occupies position of great responsibility and, happily, shows some conscious ness of it. It seems to have found in MT. O'Con- nell worthy to it's late leader, MT. Johnson. who lost his seat in the election Mr. O'Connell explained on Tuesday that the Labor Party's action In opposing the nomination of Mir. Cosgrave must not be construed as an intention to give unqualified support to the nominee of a aHether party. Labor could support nominee of Fianna Fall only on receiving satisfactory assurances from MT. De Valera on constitutional aad Labor issues

DISTRIBUTION OF THE SURPLUS.

When Congress reassembles there
 will probably develop strong movement
 in favor of relating corporation taxes amounting to more than $500 100000,
 and also of reducing the corporation
 tax from 13 F to 10 per cent. Congress-
 are convinced that in so doing they
 will confer benefit on the ultimate
 consumer who in the last analysis is
 the goat that pays the tax.
 1t has required lengthy period for
 this idea to percolate through the leg
 slative mind; at the same time the pub-
 lie has begun 10 grasp it. Excessive
 taxes imposed on corporations in
 effect excessive taxes imposed the
 people who patronize those corporations,
 to penalize corporation through hos
 tile legislation or otherwise is the
 penalizing the patrons of that
 corporation.
 The matter is quite simple when
 viewed calmly and analyticaly.
 The Government has surplus of
 $636, 100000 raised through taxation.
 Why not it, in part at least, to
 refund taxes that have been livied
 necessarily! - Seattle Business Chron-
 icle)
 This is suggestion similar to that of Presi- dent Coolidge year ago when he proposed to refund the surplus pro-rata among those who had paid income taxes. The proposal met with the opposition of the soundest economists at thai time. and the new proposal will probably meet similar fate for similar reasons
 The corporations that paid the $S00. .000, ,000 that it is proposed to refund to them have ad- justed their accounts to the payments It is fail to presume that they were charged into over head expense and equitably distributed by then among the consumers or purchasers of thci, products and wares It would not be practicabl, for them, in case the money were refunded, {, continue the distribution to those who actual, bore the burden of most of the tax. The cor porations would naturally accept the money gift from the Government
 The refunding of taxes. paid under defnit terms of laws known before the taxes becam due is not practicable fair. The better pro -cedure would be for the Government to appl the $500, ,00O, 900 that it is pfposed to dstribut in this way to the reduction of the Nationa debt and the elimination of $12,o00,0o0 or s14, 900 600 year in interest. That would bene it everybody Then the corporation taxes ad mfttediy too high could be reduced from 1Si to 10 per cent. for next year so that surpu nieht no accrue again.

A La Paz dispatch of June 21, 1917,
gave the simple announcement that
General Pando, the former president,
was dead, no indication being given at
that time that he had been assassinat-
ed. Some light on the mysterious
death of General Pando was thrown in
1920, when President Saavedra refused
a safe conduct to Emilio Zalles, for
mer director of post and telegraphs,
because of the allegation that he had
a share in the assassination plot Cen
eral Zalles finally was deported to
