- TAX ON NECESSITIES TO BE REMOVED ' Seoator Wadsworth talks p. oil conicion sense beu he says tbat the- new congress, of which he will r-c.a member, will wipe nut the so-failed luxury tax. It should havp been done- before this, or rather it never should huvc been imposed, says the Nc York Morning Telegraph. A lot of feather-hcmlcd pi I it ician -i got tufeether in the edpite) a year or two ago. and under the leadership of a cracker from South Carolina framed up the most astonishing tax law ovo imposed on a people. Itnagiue u man solemnly placing umbrellas on the list of luxuries, or inakiug men pay a fino for wearinsa ,' t'ecent shirt. And yet umbrellas, shirts and aspirin are taxed. These and other articles which every one must ; hate now pay .'in assessment. There is a tax on a glass I cf soda water, un thcale- tickets on silk stockinet; on , tcoth paste, on almost everything, and folk have been exasperated over it for months. Senator AVadswort.h j irorclses that these taxes will b-? wiped off the boiks. ; and that the income tax will be reduced. AVe shall hold the capable statesman from New York to his wo"d i.nd request him to speed tip the measure that shall t. bring about a more Satisfied condition tf mind among ; American people. WILSONIAN MEDIATION. J The state department's explanation that t'ae man chosen as mediator in the Armenia case will act for the president of the United States and not for "Woodrcw ; "Wilson personally." l3 tuperfluouss. Disassociated frotn r hts great office Mr. Wilson does not exist so far as foreign government are coucerned. Not aa in indiv-

" idual but as president was, he appealed to by the states j

i men at Geneva, who also acted in official capacities. I?ut It was Presideut A'ilson"s choice cf terms in accepting the invitation which led to inquiry being made as to what he had in mind, and that warranU further J speculation. j In bis communications to the league of nations, 'Mr. "WHson referred to his "personal mediation." Iithough it is not to be supposed that he had any thought of himself going to Turkey or Armenia to trv his aclmit- - edly great persuasive powers tn the antagonistic peo- " pies and their leaders. The state department says that .the American mediator will have nil the influence and prestige of the United States government behind him in his negotiations. From that wc deduce that the

'tentleman w!! serve 33 the eyes and cars of the presi

dent. It 13 questionable if the president has authority

jto Issue a commission, without the advice and censent jof thw senate, to an agent of the United States with .power such, as the prospective mediator should have jto make his labors effective and conclusive. Ncr id :tbere any precedent, ro far a3 Mr. Wilson is concerned.

for the appointmeut of an agent with power. Col. 13. X.. House never was given authority to make binding iisriements and lie had the president's confidence lu greater degree than any other man. We feel warranted in concluding, therefore, that I'resiJeut Wilson intends that he shall he the mediator,1 though lie does not leave Washington. The representative whom he will appoint and designate 'mediator" will hear both fides and make report tc the president. Then Mr. Wilsou will give Judgment. U is the Wilson way. Not practical and not what we think the gentlemeu at Clencva desire. Probably the delay which tn such a course will be inevitable will make the proceedings wholly futile, but Mr. Wilsou will have kept all the strings in his own hands and that he regards as of the highest importance. AN AMERICAN BRIDE I The Prince of Walts is getting to be quite a joung man now he's 116 and English newspapers ure greatly disturbed over the apparent futility of the search lor a bride for him. Not that the prince himselt iias had anything to say -lie seems to have kept hiui ..elf h'eartfrce. Hut loyalty, when it's possible, likes to get maton up witli royalty. The prince, has pretty lean pickings. There are only fcur princesses of suitable age left in Kurope. They are the Italian princesses Yolanda ttnu Malalda. Marie of Rumania and Margaret cf Denmark. None of these would make a particularly brilliant attachment considering their positions in world politics, not their charms s-o the matchmakers have turu id to the old nobility if Kngland. Th:t j it Ids only 11 daughters of dukes, 15 oi marquises and 3 7 of earls. Thrt-fourths ot these, however, would be ruled out through lack of fortune, of looks, or on account of Fillister scandals in famil history, recent or remcte. Poor piince; If he had his own way, don't you mppote he'd choose, some talented, good-looking Yan

kee girl in preference to all those titled women? Tc be sure, theie would have to be one ether considera iion. Papa-in-law would have to have plenty of cash for the Pritish royal house, like most of those of th nobility, has by no means a great fortune at its com mand iu these days of democracy.
