Remember that the railroads are engaged with the urgent movement of troop and their supplies; that there Is unusual pressure In various parts ot the country for food and fuel; that the railroads have more business than they can handle promptly. For that reason many trains are late. Th T:mss has Increased Its mailing: equipment and i cooperating In every way with the postofnee d-partment to expedite delivery. Even so, delay are inevitable basauss of the enormou demands upon the railroad and the withdrawal of men from many line of work.

WON'T LAST LONG AT TH'S RATE. It is claimed there is whiskey enough already produced to last two years, but from the evidences of rapid consumption occasionally seen the stock will soon be exhausted. Officers in cities of the Calumet region and federal authorities have captured enough whiskey in Lake coun ty since the dry law went into effect to float, if not battleship, at least a good sized cruiser. So much wn-s. key has been taken in the county that it seems almost as if all the booze in the country has been centered here .bouts. There are people who go across the state line from this county who seem to think also that it is their solfpn duty to drink up all the whiskey long before "!he to years are up.

STICK TO YOUR JOB. Following the lines of an editorial la these columns yesterday asking men of 31-45 to stick to their jobs, tho Chicago American last night said: "During the last six months millions of workers in the shipyards, foundries, lumber mills and machine shops of the United Stales have signed the 'stick to the Job' pledge of the National Service Section of the United States Shipping Board. "Just at present that pledge is being carried to the workers in Chicago's war plants at a series of noontime shop talks, p.rawny men and rugged women 'soldiers in overalls and working dresses' are raising their work seamed right hands and swearing to "do an honest day's work,' so that the fighting men at the front may have nil the fighting material they need. This is the pledge they aubscribo to: "'I promise: That so long as the war lasts I'll stick to my Job. I'll do an honest days work six days a week, and overtime if necessary. I'll do 'any thing else the president of tha United States calls on me to do. So help rue, God ' "Hut why confine this rledge to workers in 'war plants' only? Every man. woman and child in the Uni'ed States to-lay Is working af the same job. "There is only one Job for Americans, and tha? Is the job of winning 'he war as quickly and as thoroughly a? possible. No matter what sort of work you are doin.WAR WINNING IS YOUR JO'3 "if you can't light with the soldiers and tailors, build .-hips or airships or guns, or make ammunition, you can '.uiy thrift stamps. Liberty bonds, subscribe to the Red Cros. the Salvation Army, the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus, or h.-lp out in many other ways. Then, isn't an American man, woman or child but can do something and should do all he can to make good on the job. ' The. school child who buys a 2o-cent thrift s'lmp is helping to win the war Just the same as 'he men who fight or make the guns he is working on the hie Ameri' can job. "Make the war workers' pledge your pledpo to stick to the job. Do an HONEST DAY'S WORK on 'hat iob EVERY DAY IN THE WEEK. Stand ready to DO ANY THING ELSE THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES CALLS ON YOU TO DO. "The story of the Marne salient shows that our fight ing men are mrrying out this pledge to the maximum Can we do less for them than they are doing for us?"

WHAT $3,000X00.000 MEANS. To collect within a few months 3S.onrt.'"ieo oco is the task confronting the Bureau of Internal Rev is the amount the new revenue bill now being framed is wpected to yield. It is difficult to realize the immensity Of this sum. and yet $$ f.ii0.n00''0 is less than one-sixth 3f the annual income of the United States, which ha pledged its entire resources to the successful prosecution of the war. How -well this pledge is being carried sut is 'a matter of present day history. In order to bring to the mind of the American people t comprehension of the sum they will be called upon thin ear to contribute by direct taxation to the support of "he war. the Bureau of Internal Revenue has prepared i set of figures showing that if divided according to- popllation it would mean a per capita tax of J7S,7i or iiore than J336 per family. The amount of money in circulation August 1, 191S, among a population of 1,12,'')') was $32.4 per capita. The total value of all crops on American farms in 1910. the last census year, was $5.00'",000. The total value of all live stock on farms January 1, 1310, was slightly less than $3.ooo,0000'. In one year, therefore, the taxpayers, according to the proposed terms of the nw bill, are called upon to pay more than the aggregate value of all farm crops in the Uni'ed States in 1910. plus the value of all farm animals. The tax amounts to practically one-third of the total value of manufactured products as reported to the census bureau in 1914 $24. 24. 43"-, ooo. The value added to raw material by manufacture, which represents the wealth produced by manufacturing, -was in 1914, S3.S7S, S46,0O0 or but 2?..4 per cent more than the proposed tax lery. These figures are presented by the Bureau of Internal Revenue, not with the view of preparing the American people for heavy sacrifices, but. to bring home to them a sense of their responsibility in the way of necessary economies. The new revenue- bill is heing drawn in a manner to impose the least burden possible. Every man win be assessed according to his income each wii; be called upon to do his share. The amount of federal taxes collected from all sources during the last fiscal year was $3,634,000.O0n. in collecting more than twice that sum this year, the Bureau of Internal Revenue is anticipating no unusual difficulties, but is prepared to benefit by past experience. The force of office and field employes has been increased from approximately 4.500 to 9.000 and the entire administrative machinery put in readiness for its task. "In normal times federal taxes are inconsequential and impose no burden on the taxpayer," said Commissioner of Internal Revenue Daniel C. Roper in commenting on the work ahead of him. "Their collection is a simple matter, involving principally routine work. But this year we are engaged in a war upon which depends the safety not only of the United States but of the world. The collection of so vast a sum, so large a par' of the people's earnings, involves the morale of our civil population, the keystone of our success in the war. "National patriotism and solidarity, engendered h? the war, has contributed largely to our success in the past and augurs well for the future. I believe the majority

ANOTHER FOR JIM HAM. The South Bend Tribune is another s jrly patriot newspaptr which has its doub-s about permitting the red -whiskered firebrand Jim Ham Lewi? to ro over to France and exhibit himself as the living breathing am b.issador de luxe and ad lib of this country. The Tribun" says : The long expected political explosion ha? onie. Senator James Hamilton Lewi?, of Chicago, familiarly known as Jim Ham, a Democratic candidate for re-election, has enmeshed his pink whiskers in the gear? of the war machine. He did it in his usual method by trying to capitalize current even'.- into political campaign material. Senator Lewis, instead of staying at home and doing the work for which senators are paid, has been visiting :n France, running back and forth on the firing !tne, in officers' cars, shaking hands with notables calore. The thing, however, which got him into trouble "as that Jim Ham allowed the impression to ooze out whenever he went that he was the personal, clandestine, confidential appointee of President Wood row Wilson, on a

secret, mysterious mission to the

allies. With such a

halo of mv it ?n4 jui. i . ... .

. . cu.j uSmiv auuui mm me senator was in his glory. One can almost see him promenading up and down the Paris boulevards, attired in his purple spats and his floppy-brimmed fedora. W:th all this atmosphere of diplomacy about him. Senator Jim Ham essayed to write some pieces for the papers. I? happened that he picked on the Hearst papers or they picked on him and it also happened that in Pans and London the Hearst papers are still under scrutiny, although they are given the official O. K. by America's committee on public information. So when Jim Ham gave out public interviews signed and authenticated to the effect that he had just seen Premier Clemenceau, when he inferred that the premier predicted peace within the next year, the senator might have expected himself to be "in bad." The premier has repudiated the interview. Senator Lodge. Republican floor leader of the United States senate, has. challenged the utterances of his colleague, and intimated that the peace talks fit in entirely too well with the efforts of the Hum for a peace offensive Oificial Washington Is criticizing the senator under its brea'h; semi-official Washington is criticizing him openly. Quite a number of people seek to know on what authority Lewis represents himself as a personal re present ati e of the president, and wih what authority he- gives out. talk about, obtaining peace before the tP.ns are ground into the earth. Probably the scnat tor w-.li be called upon lo explain some of these things when he goes before his Illinois constituent? to seek their favor for re -election.

ISSUE SO MUCH GASOLINE LIKE THEY DO SUGAR. Now that the United States Fuel Administration lias issued a request, to cms- the' operation of all pleasure automobiles cn Sunday it is wise'. suggested by some who hav- no o'.hei day fc.-r piea.uie lijes that an s.:der be :ssu".-i :o or.iy give :-o ruuch gasoline to each pleasure-. c-onsu:n-r per month as they dc to consumers of sugar and flour. This would give the working man who has ao other day but Sunday for pie-a sure riding a chance to get. out with his family for fresh air and to see the sights, and besides would conserve on the consumption of gasoline Multitudes of war workers owning au'O mobiles have no other day but Sunday for rc-ci ention and a withdrawal of the request to cease operation of their Sunday pleasure ride; and an issuance of an order allowing of only so much gasoline per month to each consumer seem? like more of an equal legislation to the working man. The wealthy have all the time week days and al1 time when they can take advantage of pleasure.
