Without casting any reflections on any other candidates who are in the field for mayor, The News is expressing the wishes of a large number n hoping that he can see his way to accept the invitation to run for mayor. Apart from the fuller experience of municipal administration that Mr. Mobley possesses over the other gentlemen whose names have been mentioned, his acceptance of office would mean an end to the feuds that have rent the city in the past and which are in danger of being carried over into next year’s council. of citizens | Alderman Newton has exceptional aptitude for fighting. This he admits, and despite his protestations to the contrary would probably rather tight than eat any day. But however valuable a man may be as a fighter there comes a time when a doctor is more useful. That is pretty much the position of Prince Rupert at present. Instead of a fighting mayor for 1912 we need a man who understands the value of the iron hand encased in a glove of velvet. Mr. Mobley has ability, not the representative of any consent to be. He truly all classes have confidence. The present would be a good time for all parties to call a truce to hostilities, before the campaign develops, and offer the united support that alone would entice Mr. Mobley to re-enter public life. character and experience. He is particular faction, nor would he representative citizen, in whom is a THE DAILY NEWS ‘or, Rent PAPERHANGING ~ $oLOmon’s SAYINGS. A Few of the Cute Things the | laa Wise Man Probably Thought.

If one of the iayorat cahenidates will not look upon it as an underhanded attack upon himself, The News would like to sug- gest that a tax on bachelors would be a very equitable law to introduce into British Columbia. The married man is already taxed at every turn. He cannot buy his latest baby a pair of boots without the state and the trusts squeezing their quota out of the little purchase. On his butcher, groceryy and clothing bills he is taxed to the limit of the living wage. As a householder he cannot evade his responsibilities toward the municipal treasury. The suggestion of a tax on bachelors is revived by Dr. Mayer, the Austrian Finance Minister, who has evolved a number of new BESNER & BESNER, The New Knox Hotel is run on the European | New Knox Hotel PROPRIETORS | | _ All the Latest Modern | lan.

The two chief items of increased expense are the rise in the payment of the state officials, including the railway employees, who recently threatened a general strike, and the ingreased ex- Penditure on military armaments. The Minister of Finance proposes to obtain $15,000,000 by an increase of indirect taxation. The excise duty on brandy is to be raised by more than 50 per cent. The tax on lager to be raised by about 40 per cent., and the tax on champagne is also to be raised. The income from direct taxation is only expected to yield $5,000,000 more than but there are several points of interest in the new imposts. The progressive income tax on large fortunes is to be increased to a maximum rates of 6% per cent. Further, the lax” is to be introduced, by which persons who have no one to maintaintbut themselves have naval and beer j before, so-called “bachelor FIRST AVENUE, PRINCE RUPERT) to pay a surtax of 15 per cent. on their income tax, while those who have to provide for one other per g., a childless married man—must pay 10 per cent extra A new for the state is an 8 per cent. tax4 on. all bets made with bookmakers at races.

The fees payable on insurance policies and the tax on the remuneration of company directors are also to be in- creased. posed.
