The size of his income and the amount of tax paid are carefully concealed and revenue otficers are forfciclden under heavy penalty to reveal Information relating1 thereto.We. say for some inscrutable reason or purpose thir. is done.

where government is supposed to be conducted on the cooperative plan, and everybody is entitled to know what is going on. Any person may examine the records of assessments on real estate, improvements and personal property for taxation and ascertain the liability of r.ny individual or corporation to tho .slate. If taxes are permitted to be. t ome delinquent the amount and name of the delinquent taxpayer are published, not ruthlessly or vindictively, nut on the theory that the public has a right to know who are the defaulters rind th" amount of their default. No prohibition is placed upon the giving out of information. The principle of taxation is that values shall pay a certain tribute to the state. It oiiginated in the necessity for providing revenue to pay the expense of the 'operation of government. An income is as simply and truly a alue as a house and lot or a horse or a security. The possession of each and all is due to the same cause, service. There can be no difference' except an artificially constructed one. That is what the income tax" law has done, it has set up a theoretical distinction which does not exist in fact. It has reco'-rnie 1 that instinct of selfpreservation which prompts the possessor of large means and resources to protect his circumstances from publicity. While there is no offense in the honest possession of large means and resources more than a general knowledge of thcin is betrayed with relucta nee. In this attitude the man with a taxable income is protected by the law. The few hundred thousands are selected from the millions for the enjoyment of a special privilege, against which all the important legislation of the past year, except the clause in the income tax law referred to. has been aimed. The exemption of income taxpayers from publicity violates precedent and practice in tax regulation, it i unusual and unameriean. i:roi;c:u.i pkucai riov. While the subject of fire preention H fresh let it be given the consideration deserved and then it will le easier to avoid defects when the subject has grown older and attention to it more lax. A good beginning goes far toward making a i;o.d ending. Muc good order is established it is more easily main-j ta ined. Reduced to its simplest terms tire prevention is nothing mote nor loss than avoiding causes that lead to the destruction of property.

clams, snails, barnacles and such. In human marriages, since no one human i there are always differences that must be handled by sense. Youth is, indeed, very often an impediment to successful treatment of such differences, or disagreements. To love,' to be loved in return in youth is glorious, it Is heaven on dream, but one from "which all must awaken, since youth departs. There are many couples who have their love, their purpose, their courage and other mutualities through long careers of marriage, hut none who have youth and youth's happy irresponsibilities to the end. There always comes a time when L,ove calls in Dr. Sense to preserve the sum of married happiness and it takes the good doctor to perfect the higher mathematics of the heart. To be young and in possession of the whole heart of a good, woman is enough to justify the envy of the angels. But youth docs not endure and ono of the strong anchors of ital love is mutual good sense. rr.arWHY loyi: l)Ii:i). Douglas Rest is a middle aged man who lives in Mt. Vernon and has business in New York. Two months ago his wife left him, taking- with her their tlve-year-old son, most of her personal possessions and $2 50. Before she left she tore up all the photographs of herself, so that when Douglas went to the newspapers to ask for their aid after the police had failed to locate her, he could give only a verbal description. We mention these "details because, though Douglas says he can't imagine why jha should want to get away from a happy home, they indicate that she must not have thought it as happy as he. And a chance remark of his maybe lets light upon the cause of her llight. "I never got home at night until midnight." he said, "and I went to work again soon after I got up, at o'clock in the morning." In this day of feminist questioning of old customs, of revolt, indeed, against inherited fettering of women's freedom, think what must have, been the strain on the affections of a wife and mother to whom marriage, as in this case, was only a meal ticket, paid for by imprisonment. Think of the rottenness of any business which made dollar chasinc a 10hour concern of each day, while homo meant only a place to go when all other places had closed. We don't know enough about the circumstances of this case to venture dogmatic advice. But we hope wife stays away until Douglas learns to appreciate her. The verdict in the Ellis wife murder j case was accepted by both prosecution and defense as a victory. Anything but the rope looked good to the defense and the state was satisfied with the conviction of a man who had many symptoms of insanity. Sen. Sherman is a beautiful dreamer.

Most governmc incr the W of them occurred from two to four years ago. And the demand is that we shall send several thousand American boys to their deaths to avenge the deaths of the circumstances of which we know little or nothing of these 20 Americans. For tho only purpose in publishing the record at this critical time is to create a sentiment in favor of intervention which the administration could not resist. It is curious how some men reason on this subject. They argue that it is "brave" to favor intervention, and would be brave for the president to order the army into Mexico. On the other hand, it is "cowardly" to oppose intervention. Yet what bravery is there in sending other men to death, or In the demand by a man that others should go to Vvar when he himself would not for a moment think of going? We are assured on high authority that "he that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city."

Indianapolis News. wi:lij ri:ci:iyi:d. The city will be glad to see the redlight district vanish. It has attracted the scum of Chicago and in a region of freedom become notorious. Of recent days it took unto itself greater liberty than in past times and began to overflow its limits. The number of its inhabitants was startling and the size of the evil that It did would be appalling if the truth could be known. This city is getting in line with the rislnc tide of public sentiment.

The county wide demand for the abolition of legalized vice is well supported by conditions. The redlight district is a well advertised and constant attraction to men and women. The white slave investigators of the government point out that the district is a constant breeder of vice, an inyitation to the man and an easy way out for the woman. Closing of the district will pinch some toes. The assurance of the chief of police that it is to stay closed has a welcome sound.

And to Helen that blank sheet of paper was more terrifying than the mo.U wrathful letter. So this was to be her punishment. This was Warren's answer to the letter in which she had refused to send Mrs. Morrison away, insisting that she could see no reason why she should not rent the spare room while be was gone. That had been three weeks ago and not one word had ho written her since! Just the two checks with the blank sheets of paper. It was the lirst time she had deliberately refused to obey him and he was punishing her with silence. And to a sensitive, imiginative mind nothing can be more cruel than silence. There was nothing he could have written over which she would have anguished more. For whatever he might write at least the mediate thing. And to telegraph was she sufi fered from imagining every possible j thing.. i And was this silence to continue? Was this the way he was to force-her j to submission? Was she to receive next week's check with a blank sheet I of paper and the week after that? j Was he going to keep this up until j she wrote that she would do as he 'wished? Or what was more appalling still was he never going to write her again was he never coming back? Before night Helen had worked herself into a state of feverish anxiety. It was her nature that when tdio brooded long enough over anything she lost all sense of proportion. The i thing about which she was worrying ! became distorted and exaggerated and assumed an importance out of all reason, so now she brooded over this blank sheet of paper until the fear of it obsessed her. S'he studied every pen stoke on the envelope and the check, trying to get some idea of his moode from his writing. But he alvvavs wrote in a bold free hand and the writing on this env ope was tne same as on any oiner if ht was ,mv nnt so far awaj r if she only dared try to reach him I would be at lea.-t 51). ior Kansas uv was She would call up Central she wanted to know exactly.

And he informed her curtly that. "You can't telephone i to San Francisco or any point in California." ; She hung up the receiver with a j sense of shock. So it was impossible j to reach him by 'phone. Now hr j seemed farther away than ever. Yet i even if she could she would not have dared to telephone.

F. desire to "do something" she could no longer await developments. She felt that her whole future and Winifred's was in ,the balance, and that in some way she must ac' and act quickly. This feverish urgency to action at such moments is something almost every woman had felt. If only she can say or do the right thing she thinks she can bring back to her the man she loves! But it is a. most pitiful delusion for nine times out of ten if she will only do nothing, if she will only wait the man will come back himself and come with much more respect and admiration than if he was brought back by her own contriving. And so now if Heden could only have waited, if she could only have accepted the blank sheets of paper in silence! If, knowing that s he was not in fault, she could have waited in dignified inaction most probably the next week or at least the week after would have brought. her a letter. And it would have, gained for her, too, something of respect and of admiration from Warren. But this was not Helen's nature. She had reached the point where she could no longer wait. She must do some immediate thing. And to telegraph was the only thing that would satisfy her demand for action. A night letter! It was seven o'clock now, and it would be delivered before morning. But the hasty search through her desk disclosed no telegraph blanks. Would they have any down stairs? She 'phoned down and the elevator boy brought them up. "You can send fifty words now at night for the price of ten, can't you?" "Yfs, ma'am, I think that's it. Want me to ring for a messenger?" "No. not just yet. I'll call down when I want one." The yellow telegraph blanks always struck a certain note of terror in Helen's mind. And now having worked herself up to a state of feverish tenseness-they seemed more than ever ominous. She first wrote her message on note paper, and then copied it carefully on the blank. "I can't bear your silen?o. Write. Anything better than blank sheet of paper. Sorry about the roomer, will let her go at once. Will do anything you think best, if only you will write and come back to me soon. Am almost ill with anxietv. Wire me. Letter folows. HELEN." This was just forty-nine words, she had counted them carefully. She knew that all punctuation was left out of telegrams, so she read it over to see if it would be clear without them. Then she called for a mesengcr and sent it off. She had satisfied her longing for action. S'he had yielded to the feverish impulse to reach him quickly. But now hardly had the message gone when he began torturing herself as to the wisdom of having sent it. At least could she not have worded it better? The paper from which she had copied it still lay on her elsk. She read it over again and again. Each time she saw something she would like to change or leave out or put in. Oh. why had she sent it oft so quick iy ? It could not no delivered anyway before morning. ' She could have kept it until midnicht Just as well. Rut now she must write the letter. For several minutes she fat at the desk, nervously tearing tiny shreds from the corner of the gre?n blotter. Then finally she wrote: 'Dear Warren: I huve jut sent you a night letter. I could not bear it any longer. Your silence the blank sheet of paper you sent with the check seems to have territied me. Am sorry I insisted on renting the spare room against your wishes. I will let Mrs. Morrison go at e.nce. Will tell her tomorrow. PerhapsvI have been wrong, but I only wanted to make some oxtra money so I would not bo so dependent upon you lor everything.

Our offer of three months free current will also be in force. House cleaning time will soon be here and then is the most appropriate time for wiring.
