It is said toduythat the men "mentally opposed" Incongress to a subsidy outnumber thosewho are at heart friendly to it, butnrgumeutj may prevail to win n um- jJority for subsidy, und the arguments Ithat have beeu and will be advanced,tin! friends of subsidy say, are aulllcientlystrong to win tbe case.It is not tbe intention here to discussthe virtue or tbe luck of virtue of Iship subsidy legislation.There are jsome elemenls In what nuiy be culled jtlie accompaniments ol" ship subsidy |legislation which are not perhaps wiili* jout their hiimnn Interest and one of ithem is the mutter of the American 1travelers' appetites for whisky, beerand light wine on the blub seas.Ohairman Lather's Views.It was only the other night thatthere was a little crosslire of speech inthe city of Chicago between AilorneyGeneral Duugberty and Ibe shipping ,board cliairman.

Ernest Hinds and Andre W.firewater, of the active Hat. All ofthese oflicera are men of high servloawith unlmiieachable records.Il never does to look for trouble, butthe history of the past, so far as thearmy Is concerned, shows that therealways is trouble when proinoiions.demotions or discharges become thenecessary order of the day.When*ever volunteer or drafied forces havecome Into being there have been ac.cusutiiais that regular ofiicers werebeing favored at tlie expense of vol.unteer ofiicers. and that West Pointcadets have been favored at the expenseof non-cadets.It can be putdown that, as certain as It is going torain ngaln some day, there will hocharges that favoritism llgtired in Hielindings of tliln board of ellmlmuloiiwhen Its lindings are made public.Voiir correspondent believes tliat everycharge of this kind will be baso.less.May Alter Tariff Schadulet.The tariff commission is Just aboutto get down to its work.

A cownmp" n tax on gaaoline will be n taxusage, automatkally distributediu proportion to usage; and if adequateprovision ha made for theequitable application of the proceedsof soch a tax. it is the properanswer lo this new need.

If the annuallicense he increased, the tax falltalike upon big and little uttra ofthese ronds. lliat is inequitable. If,however, the tax attaches to gasolineconsumption, it nutnmtttcallyequalises itself in proportion to usageas near as is humanly poasihle,For years we have accustomedourselves to paving for gnsoline atwhatever rale happens to he dictated.from day to day, hy the powersthat rule this comnodily. Fromone month to another there will befluctuation of from one to three nrfour cents. We souirm a little underthese prices, but we pay 'emand forget it When one stopt tothink that Ihe revenue representedby this fluctuation would, if tirnadto government account, pny nearlythe whole road upkeep coat ia Michigan,il is easy to see how this particularsource of revenue would hethe least burdensome nt well as lhamost equitable. The Herald hasmaintained for some n—t that Iheretail price of gasoline belonii undergovernmental scrutiny and controljust aa much as any other factorin transportation. If it werethus regulated, we might hope loUnd Ihat fair prices .would show aniiiclination to trend downward, atleast to a point where the existingscale might include the tax-per-gal-Ion necessai v ft»r this roads maintenanci*fund. Be Ihat as il may,we would all know, under such circumstances.that we are oo a basisof fairplay and fair contribution.A lax on gasoline, funhermore,might well go farther than a mereconsumption las. Tlie recent showerof Standard Oil's stock dividend*is some slight collateral evidence, atleast, of the thoroughly satisfactoryprofits which Hie whole oil industryenjoys—enjoys, in part at least.« the expense of motor ear usagewhich i* encouraged and promotedby good roads. It would be proper—and but carrying this whole ar*gument to a logical conclusion—ifthese great oil interests were as-V^ 1" 1 ""lings lax in Ihenature of a license fee, to eonlribuleio this comiiion fuml which must bea primary charge upon tlie beneic*laries of good road*.
