The Man That Don't Pay Tax:
We heard an esteemed friend

The Man That Don't Pay Tax:
We heard an esteemed friend
say, a few days ago, "that the
rail- cad tax, If carried, would
be carried by loafers and mig
gers" which We understood 10
mean: that part OF the people
who live by their daily labor
and who having no property,
pay no tax. This springs the
question: Has a man who pays
no tax right To vote upon d
proposition to levy a tax to lin
prove the countryl In order to
answer this proposition, let us
inquire who are the men that
pay no taxi They are the men
who Till our soil; who work our
mines; who drive our manufac:
tories; who carry on our com.
merce; who build our steam
engines and our ocean vesselsj
who run our railroads and
stretch our telegraph wires,
who furnish the life, and the
blood, and supply the muscle
and the sinews of war; who
save the nations and give them
their power. What is the
wealth of the world to-day but
the accumulated labor of tile
men who don't pay taxi The
noblest being that walks on
earth, is the honest man who
by daily toll maintains HIMSELF
cen though he pays no tax.
But these men do pay a fearful
tax; tax of body and mind;
the terrible tax of a drudging
life. And shall they he mute,
not have d voice in determining
the amount and the manner of
levying a tax, because forsoo.h
some other holds the accum1
mulated profits of their earn
ings9 No. God has placed
this world with all its capabili-
ty of development in the care
and keeping OF the men who
don't pay tax. Were it not for
their industry, natures mines
OF wealth would remain unde-
4
veloped; there would be 70
busy marts Of trade; there
would be no fertile gardens
and teeming fields. The world
would remain as it came from
the hand Of its Creator,
beautiful wilderness, and men
would roam the deserts like
the wild Indians OF our native
forests.-Thanks To liberty! our
government has recognized
the nobility of labor; ahd ey:
cry maj is equal at the polls.
Don't hesitate then when cleo
ton days comes, but go to the
polls, remembering that it is
no disgrace or misfortune that
you pay no tax, If you have no
property to be taxed. The
poorest man that walks has as
inalienable a right to vote up,
on this measure as the owner
of million acres. . lev

An Unostentatious Charity Appealing to

Among the many institutions from which this
city has derived its title "The City Of Charities

along quietly and un0stentatOusly doing good In a
hitherto somewhat neglected direction. There are
number Of aged people In this city who are too
honest too steal and too proud to beg, but whose
circumstances are such that they must do one or
the other or die . There was no institu-

In charge were obliged to enlarge the establish

plicants. They succeeded In erecting building
suitable for all present purposes, but In doing so
and in carrying 1t on have incurred debt of some
$4,000. The work already done and the number

THE NEW PRIMATE:

Archbishop Bayley's Last Omcial Act I'm
New Jersey-Laying the Corner Stone
or n New Church In Jersey City-Pre-
sentation by the Clergy OF the Diocese.
The installation OF Archbishop Bayley as prevI-
0usy announced in the HERALD, takes place at
the Cathedral in Baltimore on Sunday, the 18th OF
October, two weeks from to-day. AS he was
cOnsecrated once, when elevated to the
bishOpric OF Newark, there will, OF course be no
conservation services In Baltimore, as stated in
some papers, but simply those incidental to the
installation OF the new Primate OF America and
his investiture with the pallium. The occasion win
be rendered grandly impressive no less than i'm
posing as Is the custom in the Catholic Church when
any great event Is being celebrated. But II the
ArchbIshop's expressed wish is complied with, there
will be no display except that which the Church
calls for He has forbidden any public demonstra-
ton on the part OF the Catholic people In Bati-
more.
HIS DEPARTURE FROM NEWARK.
In order to slit the truth OF the conflicting ru-
mors as to the Archbsh0ps departure from New
thn "a
noon. The Primate had Just left for Jersey City,
where he would remain to-day, the guest
at four O'Clock he will perform his last ocial act
In New Jersey-the laying OF the corner stone OF
the new st. Michael's church, Of which Father De
long the prelate's secretary was at home, and
from him some interesting facts were obtained.
No one, except the primate, knows post
lively when he will start for Baltimore.
1t IS his purpose to slip quietly away, escaping
any demonstration the part OF his people, which,
were they apprised Of would surely be gotten up.
Father Doane thought, too, that a formal leave;
taking of his late flock by the Archbishop would
only excite degree OF sorrow on all sides dinicult
to assuage. Few that are not Catholics
can properly realize the love the faithful
OF Newark bear him, who has been their
pastoral chief for fifth of cVhtury Last Sun
day DR.. Bayley was present at church ceremony
In Franklin, near Newark. When the pastor, Father
De Burgh, told the congregation that would be the
last time they would likely see their late Bishop
the women burst into tears and the eyes Of the
strong men even burst into fearful rivulets.
ON THURSDAY NEXT
the clergy OF the diocese will assemble IN the hall
OF the Catholic Institute, in Newark, at eleven
O'Clock, and there present the Archbishop with o
farewell address and costly testimonial
OF their Affection in the shape Of q splendid
gold watch, from Tiffany, suitably inscribed, and
an archtepiscOpa cross which Is now en- route from
Paris The order for the cross was sent the very
day 1t was positively known the Bishop had been
elevated to the Primary 1t is to be executed in
silver gilt with enamel hlagree, and studded with
amethysts, rubes and other precious stones, and
will doubtless be OF great beauty in design and
fnish For the benefit OF those not enthusiastically
informed 1t may be necessary to add that the cross
Is not to be worn on the person, but borne on high
in church professions
