MERRILL's Observation-Disclosures At.
torney Merrill has struck and devel-
oped quite a respectable little bonanza
during the present term of the District
Court. He reccives $50 for each con-
victiOn, and for the last week he has
been netting just that sum daily, to
say nothing of his regular salary and
other fees. 1t may be added also, with
truth, that he is rapidly becoming a
vigorous, painstaking prosecutor.

Inc fact that the National Grange OF the
Patrons OF Husbandry no longer circulates
of1cially periodical bulletins giving the
membership in the order in different states
Is far from being an evidence OF its contin-
ued increase In numbers. From a list of
state oranges embraced In a January circu-
lar, however, issued by the National Grange,
some idea of the relative strength of the or
der In different states may be obtained. The
state OF Indiana has received 2O57 charters,
Missouri 2,036 (Only one lessl, Iowa zoos,
Kentucky 1850, Kansas 1875, Texas LBS,
Ohio 1-232, and Tennessee 1,1O2. Although
Indiana leads the list In the number of
oranges, IL is quite possible that the mem
bership In Missouri Is larger than In the for
mer states. For two years past Missouri has
been the champion granger state OF the
Union.

The House Committee of Ways and Means
are winning golden opinions for wisdom In
deciding not 10 incorporate an income tax
In the revenue bill. The Baltimore Sun well
says OF this tax: at was an odiOus, oppres-
sive and inqui -itorial burden even when
first imposed, and TO revive IL now would
have been madness as well as oppressive.
The clamOr for its re-enactment came princi-
pally from localities where there was little
or no income 10 be taxed-that is, OF a sort
that could be reached"

A correspondent OF New York paper sug-
gests that the soldiers of the regular army
be required 10 attend regimentaI schools
In France, ne says, you may see, any day, a
file OF soldiers marching with states under
their arms, going TO the regimental school,
and asks If the time OF French soldiers can
be thus utilized why cannot that OF ours?
There is doubtless much idleneSs In the
army, which leads TO dissipation and crime
II a portion OF the time OF the soldier could
be employed in study he would De much
better fitted to pursue some useful vocation
after his term OF service expires. The sug-
gestion Is a good one.

gard TO the degree of responsibility falling
upon the government In respect 10 the Dis

congress assumed the government OF this

The moral and the legal duty OF Congress to
provide for all those streets, not only to
build them where they were necessary, bat
10 keep them In repair. When we took the
entire government we took the entire obIi-
gation, and We must carry II out If
tnese streets get out OF repair, these
wooden pavements rot out, these concrete
Pavements break up, we having deprived
the people here OF all control over them,
must see TO IL ourselves that they are re
paired IL is not question now whether
the Board of Public Works exceeded Its au-
thorfty or not. We took the CITY as we
found ii, and we are now bound TO take care
OF these streets and the property here. You
cannot throw 1; of on the people; Won have
rendered them pOwerless; they have no more
political rights than the people of Russia.

The slightest degree; and when you have
placed them in that position you have taken
on yourselves the duty OF providing for
them as they ought TO be provided forD
