Undoubtedly the more interest will
be centered in the contest between Dr.

the limelight since L. E. Bufton, of the
Portland firm which has the contract
for building t'.te new reservoirs for
th gravity water system, made tho
public charges that the physiclan-com-misBloner
had placed eight of his horses
on the contract and had then tried, by
threats and promises, to secure higher
wages than were being paid for other
teams.
The direct result was' the placing of
Colesworthy In the race. Best is con
ducting a fight against the other com

COST OF HIGH LUG -BOOSTED
BY TARIFF
T
M
mm
licker" Promises to Cost
More; Drinks May, Soon Be
15 Cents Straight.
By Bond P. (Jcddes.
(Written for the United Presa.)
Washington, Nov. 21. Up to a noto.t
higher, under the new tariff law. goes
the cost of high living. It's going to
cost more and a lot more at that to
keep up the reputation of being a
"spender." From booze to bank balances,
the new law hits the pocketbook of
the giddy, gay. gadabouts. Sprees, it is
declared, will cost as much again, or
more, while the Income tax strikes the
bank balances and the better-than-the-average
Incomes, . , .
"Joy riding" may be some slight bit
cheaper for the man who prefers for
elgn built cars. But there are mighty
few spots In the new law which offer
lolace and cheer for the chasers of
the bright lights.
For the man w!o likea his "Ucker,"
the new law promises no financial re-
conrldently De-
get 'em two for a quarter will sell 'em
at 16 cents straight. The new law re
tains, and on many Items increases, th
duty. The former rate of a gal
lon on brandy, whiskey, absinthe, cor
dlalB and liquors Is retained. So is the
former djity of 80 cents a quart on
champagne. So also is ' the old "indi
rect" tax of 45 cents a gallon on Im
ported beers, aje, porter and stout. Oc
still wines, the import tax, whicS tho
consumer will have to pay, is slightly
Increased in some lnatances. About the
only thing that Bounds like an Intoxi
cant and which doesn't carry the same,
or higher tax is "bibulous paper," and
that is not a thirst quencher but a stere
otyping commodity. Democrats did de
crease the duty on sponges, though,
from 20 to 15 per ceut. No, it's not
tliat kind of a sponge.
But the friendly "bar-keep" may
have to economize In keeping the little
china dish at the end of the mahog
any filled with, the "breath destroyers,"
for cloves will cost 2 cents a pound,
and cinnamon chips 1 cent a pound
more, if the new Import tax is tacked
on to the retail price, which it proba
bly will be.
There's no c'.iance, however slight,
for the thirsty man, who doesn't have
to have red-eye or kindred strong'ns,
by drinking elder. It might be possible
to save Jin much ns one-tcntli .of v cent:
on a glass, provided you bvy It in gal
lon lots and drink it tat home, for thti
tariff on Imported cider has been cut
from 6 to 3 cents a gallom But who
wants to do their drinking at home?,
Rut pity the poor millionaires. In
addition to plastering a fat income tax
on ltJs purse, the new law, in intent,, at
least, boosts nearly everything on rtha.
"high living plane-." Diamonds are up
10 per cent. Jewelry is up five pel
cent. Silks are up considerably, and
so it goes!
The jolly "Joy riders" have one con
solation in the reduction , by 15 per Cent
of the, duty on cheap foreign automo
biles, which coat less than $2000. It
also provides no tax on gasoline. Some
more, consolation is. that if the '"poor
millionaire" 1 -Tiorsoi fancier,,, he can
still import thoroughbreds for i Mm
oreedlng utables without on penny of
tariff cost. - - t,
But there Is this to be said for or
against the new law. The tariff on
chickens has been cut to the limit.
