APPLETON and Merrill are getting alarmed.
They see the current of popular feeling is
all against the fifteen year monopoly, and
they are accordingly anxious. Merrill has
sent out set of his books to all the

ter advertisement for them to insert, and
then he has these paid puffs quoted back
again into city paper as evidence of pub

GERMAN DEMOCRAT
The IrOncl0d Tur Lar


To the Editor of The GLOBE:
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Feb 10, 187S.-Is it
probable that our present Legislature will
re-enact and continue in force the unjust
and onerous ironclad tax law? And what,
in your view, is right relative to that statute
which, unlike the dew of heaven, descends
upon the poor, and not the rich? I have
some ideas to advance upon the enactment
of such an onerous law; but, presuming
that your conclusions may be the
same as my own, l will withhold
what ! have to advance until read whatever
you may have to say upon the subject for
any enlightenment.
Yours respectfully,
A PooR LANDHoLDER.
We think there should be tax law which
would compel large property owners to bear
their share of taxation and not throw the
burden upon the small property holders who
always pay their taxes The present Legis-
lature will probably enact some law which
will have a tendency to distribute more
equally the dew of heaven.-ED. GLOBE. I

Shade trees are not only ornamental but a
necessity. AS the spring is coming on, I
wish you would call attention to the destruc-
ton of shade trees by COWS. They tear the

other measure adopted.

And fout you with manners so quaint;
For although she will certainly please you,
Her coyness would puzzle saint.
But tell her how dearly 1 love her,
How often I've written her name
Of the things that I've wanted to tell her,
But couldn't just when the time came.
Of the boys that hated who knew her
OF the gloves that she had adore,
The perfume loved that chung to her;
Tell her these and thousand things more.

That IN bring her first flowers in the spring

And I'll bring her kiss, if she will.

tanned their good name, but the single scull
races were the only ones that had much
interest for tho public, or oarsmen OF
anything like n national reputation. The
absence Of such teams as the Columbia four,
the Emeralds, Atalantas and Shoes was very
marked, and pointed forcibly to the need of
some organization really broad enough to
deserve the name national. The racing
seems to have been remarkably free from
fouls, and the course a good one save
that the shifting tide made 1t practi-
cally impossible TO compare the time
of the different heats. Now that the best

Queen Christina.

Few women of modern times have had
adventures in any way comparable with
those that fell to the lot of the once famous
woman just reported dead. Hap and mis-
chief come to ALL and life has inevitable ups
and downs, whether it be pitched in high
keys or low keys; but since the number Of
persons born to be tumbled from thrones
by every breeze Of revolution or lifted up
again by inevitable reaction is, after oil,
but small, the interest of the many will
assurediy always be excited in q peculiar
degree by the fortunes of these few. Chris
tina was the child of sovereign; was one
of eleven children, and was the sister Of
King Bomba Regal philology has not yet
fully determined whether this nickname
was bestowed upon Christmas royal brother
in savage spirit because of the cruelty
of his bombardment OF Messina, or in
the comic vein, because Of the empty
windiness Of his character; but the
very doubt is instructive of the
sort of royalty from which this queen
arose. From one sovereign" family she
went to another as fourth wife, for her
elder sister was already a sister-in- law Of
the King of Spain, and possessing over him
the influence of vigorous mind, succeeded
in placing her younger sister on the throne
beside him. She thereby became the
mother of Isabella H., that fugitive queen
who was driven from Spain when the last
republic was initiated, and who is kept out
through the discretion of her son, King
Alfonso. In order to keep her hold upon
the throne Christina secured from the
feeble will of her husband decree which
set aside the regular order of succession in
favor of her daughter, who, under the salc
law, was Ineligible. She thereby prepared
two scourges for Spain the war made for
his rights by the first Don Carlos and the
reign of Isabella. Christina was made Re-
gent of Spain by the will ofFerdinand VII.
and remained the actual ruler long after
her authority was nominally displaced by
the accession OF Isabella. She was driven
out by one revolution only to be restored
by another, and from the time she first
went to Spain until her expulsion in 1864
he was always vigorous influence for

Athletic sport. at Nswpor..

One of the loveliest days Of the year,
bright and cool, drew out very large at
tendance yesterday to the pretty grounds
Of the Westchester Polo Club, at Newport.
to witness the games at the second annual
athletic meeting, under the auspices OF the
club. 1t was a notable gathering of anna
teur athletes, no less than seventeen diff
ferent athletic clubs being represented by
their picked members, and also members of
Princeton and Columbia colleges. Boston,
Baltimore, Yonkers, Elizabeth. Harlem,
Staten Island. Greenpoint, New London
and Newport were represented among the
contestants, besides this city, from which
number of clubs participated. Aside from
foot races, walking and running, there was
throwing of the hammer, putting the shot,
pole and running leaps, and various other
games, in all Of which the contestants
showed skill and endurance.
When the Westchester Polo Club began
to set the fashion for manly sports and exer-
cises it was sometimes accused of being
aristocratic and sometimes OF being COM
posed of trifers but it is outliving the ill
will of its critics. who have been forced to
confess that polo is not game for idlers,
and who see by these meetings for amateur
athletics that the club takes care TO en-
courage all manly games. Yesterdays ex-
hibition would have been creditable to pro-
fessionals, and proves that athletic games
have taken firm hold in the favor of our
youth.

Rapid Transit for whoms

Perhaps the managers of the Elevated
Railway imagine they are doing their whole
duty because their road is so handsomely
patronized, but this is very poor logic. Peo-
pie who cannot go where they like FREE
quently betake themselves wherever COM
pelled but such compulsion does not raise
the compeller in the esteem Of his victim.
Because all of the passengers of the ele-
waited roads live below Fifty-ninth street
there is no reason to suppose they want to
remain there. The wards below Central
Park are about as fully built up as they can
be without great expense for either filing
or blasting and excavation. They are
crowded to such an extent that not one-half
of the people who want to live in New York
can do So Thousands are looking anxiously
forward to the day when they can build or
hire homes in the airier, cleaner, roomier,
quieter, cheaper wards up town. This hope
was at the bottom of fully one-half.of the
public sentiment which enabled the
rapid transit scheme to triumph over
the many public and private objec-
tions that were urged against it, The
noise, dirt. Disagreement and other annoy
ances caused by the Metropolitan road were
not accepted for their own sweet sakes, but
as conditions to be endured for the sake of
being able to live where one chose and yet
be within easy reach Of business. Many
citizens, trusting to the fairness of the CON-
pany, have already purchased homes above
the Park, only to find them practically as
unavailable as an igloo within the Arctic
Circle. Besides the large proportion OF the
present patrons OF the road who want to 60
farther up town there are ten times as
many in other parts of the city, in Brook
Ign and in New Jersey who also want to get
into the new wards. Was rapid transit
chartered for these also, or only for such as
might prefer to live in the district at present
traversed by the roadp If for the latter
only. our Legislature stands as the perpe-
traitor of most outrageous act Of special
legislation which it will speedily be COM
PEELED to undo.
