From the Cleveland Plain DeaIer
Does the Lnboriug MRn Pay NM
Tnyes<

While the producing industries of the
country, are unjustly taxed, and the al
most intolerable burdens of the war
rest upon those who fought the battles
and made the sacrifices, those who till
cd tho land to produce supplies, and
those who labored in the workshops,
the organs of the Radicals are asserting
that the wealthy bondholders, are the
men who pay all our revenues. The
organ of tho Radicals of Lorain county,
replying to an article which recently
appeared in the Plain Dealer, sneering-
ly says that, "Hot one ldbOring man IN
crery hundred pays penny Of tdrcs TO
the government, dircctly." True the la
boring man docs not pay his taxes d.
,rectly to the Government, but every
man of sense knows that the consumer
pays the tax upon every article manu-.
featured by capital. A practicle work
ing-man, few days ago, being III our
office handed US the following, which
in itself is o volume of argument to
that the poor man does pay taxes
Radical legislation requires tho con-
sumer to pay all taxes. 1t taxes

How the Take. are Le.seued.

The present Legislature has ostenta-
tiously pretended TO reduce the taxes
though the pretense is but fallacious.
While it has nominally reduced what is
called the State tax for State purposes,
we learn from gentleman who has just
paid his taxes for this year in one Of the
interior counties, that his county tax is
just seven and fourth times the amount
of the State tax for State
purposes. This enormous per cent. in
cludes no bounty tax--no school tax :
no township tax for any purpose. Thus,
while tn Legislature makes show of re-
ducing the State tax to twenty cents on
the hundred dollars, it provides that the
obscure individuals of the Radical par
ty, who recklessly govern the counties
and townships that compose the State'
but pay very little, may tax the prop
erty holders absolutely withoat limit. In
fact, such persons do tax the real estate
in many of the counties much more than
it could be leased for, even if the owners
would pay the taxes and allow the
lessees to have it without any charge
therefor.
Such government cannot continue,
or the country must 60 to waste. If the
people once learn that to labor and accu-
mulate property makes them poorer, and
that this condition is permanently fas-
tened on them, while the whole OF
their earnings anu income is appropria-
ted to the support of thriftless sinecnre
ofliceholders, all individual energy will
cease, and universal indolonce and con-
sequent desolatiou will follow.

THE LITTLE WOMAN.

AS rule, the little woman is brave.
When the lymphatic giantess falls into
faint or goes off into Mysteries, she storms,
or hustle about, or holds on like a game
terrier, according to the work on hand.
She will fly at any man that annoys her,
and bears herself as equal to the biggest
and strongest fellow of her acquaintance.
In genenal she does it all by sheer pluck,
and is not notorious for subtlety or craft.
Had Delilah been alittle woman, she wonld
never undertaken to shear Samson's lock
She would have defed him with all his
strength untouched on his head; and she
would have overcome him, too. Judith
and Jael were both probably large women
The work they went about, demanded a
certain streugh of muscle and toughness of
sinew; but who can say that Jazcbel was
not small freckled, auburn haired Lady
Audley Of her time, full of consecrated fire,
the electric force, the passionate reckless
ness of her type? Rrgan and Goneril might
haze been beautiful demons of the same
pattern; we have the example of the Mar
chioness de Brinvilers, as to what amount
of spiritual deviltry can exist with the face
and manner of an angel direct from heaven;
and perhaps Cordelia was tall, dark haired
girl, with a pair Of brown eyes, and long
nose sIoping downwards.
On the whole then, the little women
have the best of it. More pctted than their
bigger sisters, and infinitely more powerful,
they have their own way, in part, because
it really does not seem worth while to con
test point with little creatures. There's
nothing that wounds mans selfrespect in
any victory they may get or claim. Where
there is absolute inequality of strength,
there can be no humiliation in the sclflm-
posed defeat of the stronger; and as it is
always more pleasant to have peace than
war, and as big men for the most part ra-
ther like than not to put their necks under
the tread of tiny feet, the little woman goes
on her way triumphant to the end, and
throwing down all the barriers that impede
her progress, perfectly irresistible and i'm
pressibe in all circumstances and nder
any conditions.

a WESTERN EDITOR DESCRIBES
PITTSBURG.

A Western editor thus descibes the eff
feet produced by the numerous founderies,
iron works, &, at Pttsburg, Pennsylvania:
Pittsburg people never have fresh air
except when out of town. They live on
coal smoke and floating cnders. We in
hailed seven tons of coal the first hour we
were there. The people breathe smoke,
eat smoke, chew smoke, and carry it loose
in their pockets. 1t is now seventy two
years since Pit.sb1Ig has been warmed or
reached by the suns rays. Once a
streak of sunshine, of several years con-
densing' undertook to penetrate the clhud
of smoke over the city, got lost, became
smoked, and fell like standing edition of
the Back Crock.
The ladies use smoke and coal dust to
protect their complexion. Little boys and
girls stand on the corner with wet brooms
and sponges TO wash peoples faces for five
cents. Everybody is of color in Pitts
burg At the postofiice window the clerk
distinguishes people by certain signs, it
being impossible to see their faces from
the LAYERS of coal dust and smoke. We
saw little boy crying on the street because
he had lost his father, who was six fee
ahead of him in all the darkness.
Every one is mourning in Ptitsburg. A
barber once went there to color hair and
whiskers. He morn busted in week!
Men kiss each others wives in Pittsburg
unable to tell which is their own only by
the taste. Women send their children on
errsnds, first writing on their faces with
thumb nail or wet stick People fee
their way by door knobs, and read by rails
ed tyne
A man once stood in bis room with his
window lased-changed his shirt nine
times in four minutes and only got clean
one on him when the window fell down by
accident and kept the smoke out.
Bcdclothes are unknown in Pittsbnrg-
just leave the window open and sheets OF
smoke settle upon you like newspapers from
machine press. Some years since some
snow fell into that city from a cloud OF
smokc-the smoke was not burt, but the
snow looked sick. When looking.at watch
to see the hour it is the fashion to light q
match. Men carry lanterns to see how to
shake hands. They make black broad
cloth by hanging spiders web out til
filed with smoke, and use hot coal dust for
pepper. They roll the smoke, sweetened,
into sticks, and sell it for icorce.

90 if not stay.
1t is foolish to pay out money in the
purchase of repentance.

-wDoes the reader know why Schuy
Ter Colfax has so much to say in protect

He is one of those who swore by the light
of dark lantern that no Catholic shonld
ever vote or hold an office in this conutry
and that no foreigner even if a Protestant
should vote or hold an office until he had
been in the Untnd States twenty one years
No foreigner, whatever may be his religion
who is not mranspirited and destitute ot
selfrespect, will vote for him, and it is tc
conciliate and curry favor with this class
that he now professes so great regard fol
their interests. Spot the hypocrite.
