The Catholic church has stood for all ages. It was Instituted by Christ nineteen hundred years ago and now a so called William Floyd Clark comes here under the auspices of the Menace Club of America, carrying the red flag of Socialism and declaring the Catholic church to be a menace to America. The church does not need this so called Clark to tell her anything. She is here to stay and this so called Clark can not destroy her. America would be better off if it would do away with such people as this so called lecturer put them on an island and let them stay there. jTurthermore she teaches in day as well as night, and all times, teaching good to the people. Why did they not pass their bills in day light? No, they wait until every one is asleep and slip around like a thief in the night, doing all the damage they can. What cowards they are! C. M. P. EDITORIAL VIEWS. THE DRAINAGE CONGRESS. (Washington Times.) Another congress will open its sessions, also for consideration of a set of grave national problems, in St. Louis, this week. It Is the National Drainage congress, and will consider the question of flood prevention in its widest aspects. One of the most important addresses will be delivered by Marshall O. Leighton, chief of the hydrographlc division of the Geological Survey. Mr. Leighton is the leader of nationalism In the domain of water resources. He believes in a new nationalism in reference to this question, just as firmly as Colonel Roosevelt does in the realm of politics. He would recognize the physically national character of the drainage system, tfnd treat it as a unity. Years ago he put forth a scheme for nationally planned, constructed and supervised flood-water reservoirs on the upper watersheds of the streams whose confluence makes the Mississippi system. The scheme looked so stupendous, visionary, and expensive that it was given cold reception by statesmen of the river-and-harbor pie-counter caliber. It was not apparent just how "my district" was to he assured of its piece in that sort of a scheme. Mr. Leighton waited for time and events to reenforce his arguments; and he has been vindicated. Today the Leighton plan is looked upon as practical and necessary. The address of Mr. Leighton at St. Louis will be of rational importance, and doubtless will receive national attention. A FRIEND IN NEED. (New York Sun.) In the piping times of peace a large number of the public turns from the educated physician to the fads, Isms faith, sun, magnetic and other healers. The latter are conspicuous by their over the land, when cyclones, floods, earthquakes and like catastrophes demand urgent, scientilc, skilful action. We are reminded of this singular but obvious fact by a recent able editorial of the Journal of the American Medical Association. fWhen the call goes forth for medical men to minister to the sick, the wounded and the dying, the plodding doctor leaves his own work and rushes into the fray, he toils day and night without receiving or expecting compensation in behalf of suffering humanity. Has there ever occurred a calamity In which this fact has not been demonstrated? At such times, says the Journal, what becomes of the cults that are constantly trying to usurp the place of the scientific medical men and undermine the confidence of the public? They sink into obscurity. When the emergency arises what have they to offer? There has appeared no despatch announcing that "a special train containing, a hundred osteopaths is on the way to Dayton. AU the sufferers will receive spinal adjustments." Nor . dial any announcement appear after

To Live Over Brave Days. Brave days will be lired over again next July on one of the bloodiest battlefields of history grim Gettysburg. Through the generous appropriations of states, many survivors of both the blue and grey armies, who fought hand-to-hand in that decisive engagement, will meet as comrades, and in the shadows of the graceful monuments, which mark the positions occupied by the various regiments and batteries, these grizzled and battle-scarred veterans will clasp hand3 and sectional feeling will be forever forgotten. There are five hundred Indiana survivors of Gettysburg and the state has appropriated $20,000 to meet their expenses of attending the fiftieth anniversary of the great battle. It is to be hoped all of them can attend. What tales will be told of Pickett's desperate, futile charge up the bloody slope to the Union lines, and of the bulldog bravery of the men in blue who withstood that terrible onslaught and hurled back, crushed and defeated, the wonderful men who followed Pickett's sword.

"Not a Sou For Flood Victims:' WASHINGTON, April 8. "Not a sou from the Federal treasury for the relief of flood victims in Indiana and Ohio." This is the position, bluntly expressed, of Representative Fitzgerald, chairman of the appropriations committee and holder of the purse strings. "I can not understand," said he, "why great, rich states like Indiana and Ohio should come to the Federal government asking this sort of relief." It begins to look now as if there will be no appropriation of any amount by Congress. Fitzgerald takes the position that the floods are over and that the relief work is being well handled.

Why not a penny from the federal treasury for Indiana and Ohio flood victims? Does the Democratic majority in congress need the money to meet the appropriations in another public buildings "pork barrel" bill? Or does San Francisco want to borrow a million or two more for its exposition ? True, Indiana and Ohio are "great, rich states" and both are doing everything possible to aid their stricken citizens, but federal help is needed and these "great, rich states" have established no precedent in asking for the same. Federal aid has been extended flood sufferers in the Mississippi valley in the past. Is that a more favored region than the valleys of the Scioto, the Miami or the Whitewater and Wabash?

Yellow News About the Flood. Richmond people with relatives in the west, the northwest and far east have been astonished the last few days by receiving information from them that some newspapers in those localities published dispatches which announced that Richmond had been wiped off the map, and one particularly imaginative correspondent sent a dispatch to a Chicago paper that Richmond had been burned during the flood. So far as Richmond is concerned there was never the slightest excuse for the circulation of such reports because this city was never cut off from communication with the outside world. The blame for such reports must not be given to the press associations, like the National News Association or the Associated Press, for both of those organizations at all times received accurate information concerning the situation in Richmond and they did not exaggerate the reports they received from their local correspondents. The Indianapolis newspapers also received and published accurate reports from Richmond, so, by a simple method of deduction, it appears that the parties guilty of the fake flood news from Richmond and other points must be free-lance journalists in the larger cities near the flood zone, willing to disgrace their profession for a few

paltry dollars they received in payment for their wild yarns.

Such items would be greeted with laughter. When lives are in danger, when death rides in the wind and on the waters, the people want the men of scientific training and experience, cool judgment and steady nerve6, who can carry to them all the aid that the human intellect in the centuries of struggle has discovered. The faddists are like the "summer soldier and sunshine patriot" of Thomas Paine. Their conquests are wrought in gorgeous office or marble temple over maladies that result

READJUSTMENTS

The new rates would reduce the Government's customs revenue $130,000,000 a year, a sum which it is proposed shall be made up through the new tax on incomes. The avowed purpose of the measure is to put the burden of governmental expense upon the wealthy and by reducing the price of necessaries lower the cost of living for the poor. The metals schedule: Steel rails free. Steel and iron wire, now $3 and $12 a ton, to 8 per cent, ad valorem; forgings, now SO per cent., to IB per cent. Machinery to be generally reduced. Automobiles unchanged. Steam engines and machine tools reduced from 30 per cent to 15 per cent. Sugar ultimately to be on the free list in 1916. An immediate reduction of 25 per cent, is proposed. Woollen cloths, knit fabrics, and manufactured goods to be reduced from 97 per cent, to 35 per cent. Cotton cloth is reduced from 42.74 to 26.69 per cent. Meats are to be on the free list. Rates on live stck to be reduced generally, cattle from 25.07 per cent, to 10 per cent.; sheep from 16.41 to 10 per cent.; poultry from 13.10 to 6.67 per cent.; horses from 25 to 10 per cent; swine from $1.50 a head to be free.

Linen fabrics are cut from 60 per cent, to 45 per cent. Handkerchiefs reduced from 50 per cent to 35 per cent. The Income Tax The income tax bill provides a graduated income tax upon every resident of the United States whose income is over $4,000 a year. In all cases the first $4,0000 of income is exempted from taxation. From $4,000 to $20,000 the rate is 1 per cent. Thus on an Income of $20,000 the tax would be $160. From $20,000 to $50,000 a surtax of 1 per cent. Is added and from $50,000 to $100,000 a surtax of 2 per cent. On incomes in excess of $100,000 a surtax of 3 per cent, is added. Thus on an income of $1,000,000 a year the tax would he $38,260. The bill would repeal the present corporation tax law imposing a 1 per cent, tax on the earnings of corporations and stock companies. The salaries of the President of the United States, Federal Judges and all state officers and employes are exempted from the Income tax. Administration. These are the principal changes proposed: Trade with the Philippine Islands is placed upon an absolutely free basis. Commercial relations with Cuba 0

OLDEST INDIAN OF

(National Xewi Association) SPOKANE, Wash., April 9. Totally blind and living entirely alone, two miles from his nearest neighbor, building his own fires and cooking his own meals, even to making bread, is Eschnumkein Paul, an aged Indian of the Callspel tribe, according to the story brought to Spokane by Father Louis Taelman, president of Goniaga university. Father Taelman, who a few years ago was a missionary to the Calispel Indians, still is their spiritual adviser, and makes frequent trips to their tented village on the Pend Oreille river, some 60 miles northeast of Spokane. But the old, blind tribesman lives apart from his people, a life of the utmost seclusion. "I was amazed at the case of old blind Eschnumkein Paul," states Father Taelman. "I Investigated his condition. He is stone blind and yet he lives entirely alone, two miles from the nearest neighbor. The wonderful are not changed. The President is urged to make reciprocity treaties. These must be ratified by a majority of both houses of Congress. The Senate thereby loses its exclusive power to ratify trade treaties. The income tax is collectible at the source of the income. Thus stock owners will receive dividends less the Government tax.

CAL1SPEL TRIBE

part of his story is that he travels about at will, visiting the people of the tribe, always going directly to the place at which he desires to visit. He never gets confused in roads by taking the wrong one. "He lives in a small cabin throughout the year without assistance. He builds all his own fires and prepares his meals. He can cut his meat or make bread as good as most persons who have the use of their eyes. "The only way in which 1 can account for his strange case is that the wonderful instinct, which every Indian has, has become so acute in him during the 40 years of his blindness that it has taken the place of his eyes. "Among the Calispels there is a great deal of blindness and bad eyes, due to the smoke from their tepee fires. It has proved a great detriment to their more Tapid advance In civilization. The old head chief, Masalah. is blind." ARNOLD TO TALK ON AMERICAN FLAG I. B. Arnold will give an address before the members of the Sol Meredith Post G. A.
