Had the so-called “beer wagon” been stopped from depositing its load in Syracuse every three or four days and had the illegal selling of liquor been stopped in Syracuse, a far different story might be told. A condition of affairs that prohibits a citizen of this 1 town from selling liquor in a retail, manner and allows a citizen of Go- ■ shen to dispose of the same goods; wholesale is a huge joke. Anyway ’ the advocates of the “wet” cause have a chance to prove their contentions of better conditions when the licensed saloon is allowed. > — We Are heartily glad that the | temperance people have decided to j abandon the remonstrance at the' the present time and let the major- • ity vote rule until such time as it! seems necessary to assert that prerogative. Such elections as the one just passed tear at the very vitals of a town and the feeling that arises is a menace to business. However, if the saloons are allowed by the majority rule, they must obey the law and MM* will hpnrnnnH c—- *1 suggest the remonstrane and to help use it when we learn that the law is ignored. The saloons come on probation and must show that they better conditions. If they can’t show this, then they have no excuse for existing. The Matter of a gate in the dam at the spill-wav is being agitated Many of the lower grounds at Wawasee are under water and the owners thereof threaten the town with damage suits, alleging that some means should be provided to let the water away more rapidly. Divers opinions are put toward as to the best method of preparing tor

an emergency such as has just passed, but while these conditions are unusual, they should be provided for, nevertheless. The Death of John Pierpont Morgan removed one of the world’s greatest financiers. The only trait that the newepapers can dig up in his favor is that he always kept his word He was a hard man and his acts ran very near the border of thievery—in fact, had not many of the laws been made for his individual benefit he would have died within the four walls of a prison instead of amidst the splendor of the Grand Hotel ot Rome.

TARIFF LETTER M PRESIDENT WILSON READS HIS MESSAGE TO CONGRESS TO CA3INET. EMPHASIZE MONEY QUESTION Chief Executive, in 1,2C0 Word Document, It Is Stated, Will Confine His Suggestions to Duties —Wants Revision Downward. Washington, March 31. —The final draft of his first message to congress, which he will send at the opening of the special session April 7, was read Friday by President Wilson to bis cabinet. The message, it can be said authoritatively, will confine itself to the tariff. In 1,200 words, it will give the president’s views on this spbject. and will state it is the president’s position that nothing shall be done by either house to take from the tariff its place in the center of the legislative stage. This does not mean that there is to be no other legislation during the session. It merely means that the president Intends to use all his influence to see that nothing is allowed to interfere with first place for tariff revision downward. The message is expected to put this in so many words, but it also wit declare that a number of other subjects of vital importance to the American people are awaiting legislation principally the currency question. The president will specifically refrain from commenting upon these in this message, although reserving the right to touch upon them in later special messages should congress make sufficient headway with the tariff problem to leave room and time for other work at the special session. In this connection it became known that Representative Carter Glass chairman-to-be of the banking and currency committee of the new house has completed the draft of a monetary revision bill and that it is ready for introduction whenever the president desires it. Representative Glass, however, will not put it in until President Wilson feels that its introduction will not interfere with tariff legislation. Representative Glass and the presi dent are said to fear that to start th< money reform task and then to leavit open until the winter session wil: only add to the difficulties of the situ atlon. As far as President Wilson’s views on the tariff are concerned, it can b( stated that he will take the saur ground he took in his speech of ar ceptance last summer, that the tari' must be taken out of politics, and th;r its. revision downward should beg!: by taking out of every schedule ever, rate that can be construed as a *‘fz vor” to any industry. “There should be immediate re vision,” he said at that time, “and f should be downward unhesitatingly and steadily downward. It should be gin with the schedules which have been used most obviously to kill com and to xirtces in th-:. United States arbitrarily and wlthou: regard to the prices pertaining else where in the markets of the world and it should, before it is finished di intermitted, be extended to every item in every schedule which affords any opportunity for monopoly, for special advantages to limited groups of bene ficiaries or for subsidized control of any kind in the markets or the enterprises of the country, until special favors of every sort shall have been absolutely withdrawn and every part of our laws of taxation shall have been transformed from a system of governmental patronage into a system of just-and reasonable charges which shall fall where they will create the least burden. “When we shall have done that we can fix questions of revenues and of business adjustment in a new spirit We shall be partners with the business men of the country, and a day of freer, more stable prosperity shall have dawned.”
