If we had an increased tax on beer and tobacco every cent of it would go into the treasury for alike pur- pose, Neither of these taxes would be divid. ed between the treasury and any trust or any favored class. Neither would they give the party in power excuse for demanding any contribution to a cam. paign fund to keep it ia power. Buta duty on hides will compel the people to pay rich tribute to the trust, A duty on raw wool will compel the people an beef to pay a beavy bonus to the wool grow. A discriminating duty on refined sugar means the transfer of the people's money to the coffers of the sugar trust, But the present senate is not legislating for the treasury or for the people, but for the trusts, the favored class?s and contributors to campaign funds. There fore, the proposed duty on tea and the additional tax on tobacco and beer are to be abandoned while there is to be a duty on hides, a duly on wool and a scandalously discriminative duty on re. fined sugar. It is legislation not for the public welfare but for private benefit and corrupt political advantage that we are witnessing just now.

Speaking on the subject, Mr. McLaurin says: I think a vote will be reached on Friday 1 lay, and, as the bill wil] priate to put it through day.’ on expect the bill to be passed as this but that is not very probable. Wednesday or Thursday of week, Republi- cans in the House are yery coufident that in all important schedules, the bill as it emerges from the conference com- mittee will closely resemble the original Dingley bill.

This law applies to all classes of em- ployers whether they employ one man or ten thousand, and all should appreciate the fact that it will be scrupulously en- forced. The workingmen of every com. munity are greatly interested in the strict enforcement of the law, and they will be vigilant to the last degree to have the tax collected for every day's labor performed by an unnaturalized alien. This is nota law made for the galleries; it is a law that appeals to the workingmen of every section of the State, and they have it in their power to compel strict obedience to it by every employer,-Times, pa ua Cereal Coffee Drinkers Beware!
