This bill is evidently based on tne . periem-e reports no 5Uch happening when secretary 01 me HiRorv ;tflv:inced bv John Sherman traoem-v flu l-inrr fin. timp that there was more or less rag- chewing about the resumption of specie payment. When the matter was put up to him, his laconic reply was: "The way to resume is to resume," and so it proved. The legislative atmosphere here abouts has been sur charged and disturbed with theories for consolidation having in view the sole (?) purpose of decreasing taxes, ' and practically the entire legislature, as well as the gov ernor, have pledged themselves to reduce taxation. Senator Dennis lias gone directly to the heart of the siWation ali'dtias in substance reiterated the famous and practical utterance of Secretary Sherman by saying: "The way to reduce is to 'reduce. 'Thore-is no use takinir into consideration the delicate feelings of the office holder, who invariably insists that: owing to-increased business arid increased cost 01 nign living, his budget must be increased. ' When industrial depression hits the business man, he has no option but to trim his overhead accordingly. The official that cannot adopt his affairs to the re duced levy has the alternative of resigning, and as the state has always managed to exist under all conditions, it no doubt will survive his exit. Pass this bill And its provisions will force a better con solidation than can be made by theoretical altruism. ' Remember, the way to reduces Taxes is to REDUCE!

To the lay mind, France would appear to have the bet ter of the situation as far as Great Britain is-concerned. If France fails in Germany because of the lack of British support, thcBritish bid fair to need the support of French influence in. (dealing with the -Turks. France may even make a separate treaty with Turkey. Both Europe and Asia are likelv to be losers by the failure of Great Britain and France to continue the co-L operation that marked their relations (luring the war. If selfish purposes .'have brought about the failure to act!! together in making peace an actuality, or at least attempt- jj ing it, the reason is not to the credit of either nation. ! France, without the moral support of Great Britain in1; dealing, with Germany, may be forced to adopt measures not contemplated when the French went into the Ruhr; Great Britain, kicking the influence which France appar-1; ently has With the Turks, may be forced to accept war as ; the alternative' of yielding to the demands of the Turks. ; In whatever aspect it is considered, the failure of the ! British and French to finish the job that was forced upon ! thepi by the Germans in l'Jl t must be considered as seri- ! oust in character. Acting together, these two nations, ! aided by Italy and Belgium, slumld have been able to se-,1 cure settlements in Europe and Asia that would give some protnise otViniprovement over present' conditions. ;!

Russia and Turkey WHITMAN'S The Candy for Her VALENTINE Red Cross Drug Store The Russian government is massing troops on the Turkish frontier. This is being done not with hostile in-: tent, but for the advantage in cooperating with Turkey in; effecting a European "diversion." The unmistakable pur-; pose of.Russo-Turkish military operation-? in prospect is; so fully to engage Great Britain bv throateninir her Near- East interest as to prevent her going to the assistance of France. So apparent is the purpose of these two nations that their continuation at the Lausanne conference is loing re garded with suspicion by all European nations. The course pursued by the Turkish representatives there is merely one of deliberate delay to gain time to maneuver troops into position to make the threat which Turkey be lieves will bring the other nations to terms The.
