Mr.. ALBERT FINK's reply to Judge
Black has been much .applauded by
some of the stock -jobbing journals of
New York, but they have totally failed
to notice the obvious fallacies which it
contains. Mr.. Fink assumes, for in
stance, that the only tax which the
companies impose upon the producers
of the country is the actual freight col
iected on grain carried to the seaboard !;
and lie maintains that most of this is
paid by consumers in other countries.
lie states that the grain crop of 1873
amounted TO ,5S1 ,000, 900 bushels, and
their way to the seaboard, of which
66, 900, 900 bushels were carried by the
four trunk lines, the other 49,OOO,O 900
being transported by water. He pro-
ceeds to argue that the whole extent of
the railroad tax on the farmers fell on
this sc, ,000,0C0 bushels of grain and
says that difference of five cents per
100 pounds on that amount would come
to only 50, 900, ,0O0, and not to S45, 900, 900
as stated by Senator Window and
Judge Black. Could there be shall
lower or more disingenuous statement
than this? Every farmer knows that
the value of his crops is fixed by the
surplus. When the railroads tax the
latter, they at the same time tax every
bushel of grain raised in this country
which is consumed at home, as well as
that which is carried abroad. The
price of the whole product is fixed ny
the price in Liverpool, a considerable
element in which is the cost of tr us
portation to the seaboard. Senator
Windom and Judge Black were right
and Mr.. Fink is wrong. Moreover, it
looks very much as if the latter Were
deliberately wrong. He must have
known better.-[ Chicago Tribune.

In the ukase of the new Gar the

In the ukase of the new Gar there
is no intimation of any intended re-
forms or ameliorations of the Govern
ment there is no hint of the cause of
the assassination of his father. The act
is primarily laid on the Almighty in
this language:
cit has pleased the Almighty, in
inscrutable will, to visit Russia with a
heavy blow of fate, and to call her
benefactor, the Emperor Alexander II,
to Himself.
The new Car then shifts the re-
sponsibiIity more directly upon the
two assasins:
He fell by the hands ofimpious MUIR
derers, who had repeatedly sought his
precious life, and made their attempts
because they saw in him the protector
of Russia, the foundation of her great
ness. ami the promoter of the welfare
of the Russian people.
derers to " call the Emperor to Him.
SELF" why are they called impious'?
But the new Gar, in the first gush of
his grief, makes a false accusation
against the assasins when he says they
saw in the late Emperor the promoter
of the welfare of the Russian people" "
1t was simply because he refused to
promote the welfare of the Russian
people that they dynamited him. The
Car was an implacable foe of free in
situations for the people of Russia. He
employed his autocratic power to
stamp out freedom of speech and of
the press, freedom of thought and
action. He refused utterly to give the
Russians Parliament or permit them
to make their own laws and vote their
own taxes, or enjoy any of the rights
and privileges of other civilized na-
tions. The program of mail-handed,
iron-heeled repression became unen-
durable, and he fell victim to his
own tyrannical stupidity.-T Chicago
Tribune.

THE New York Evening Post, a
leading Republican journal, in a short
and pointed editorial in its issue of the
18th inst, says: President Garfield
has made his first mistake. 1t is a
very gross one, He has nominated
Stanley Matthews for a Supreme Court
Justice"
The Republican leaders and papers
that oppose Matthews on account of
his being the agent and feed attorney
of the monopolists should remember
that these monopolists furnished a
large share of the money used in the
late presidential campaign and that
they did SO for the purpose of securing
the election of the man who would do
their will and look after their interests.

AURORA.

Correspondence.
We have just finished boiling the
largest run of sap known in this town
for several years. The sap being very
sweet it makes the yield of sugar equal
to last year at this time, notwithstand-
ing the season is three weeks later.
Syrup brings 20 cents per gallon at the
stores here, and there is demand for
all that is made.
The wheat is looking rather small
and thin on the ground, but it is too
early to decide what the harvest will be.
All the Cheese Factories in this town
are to open on April 1st. No price has
been established for the milk rs yet.
The Sugar-of- Milk Factory is to COM
nence operations early in the season
at the station. It will extract the
sugar from about eighteen hundred
gallons of milk per day. The sugar is
to be used for medicinal purposes and
this is said to be the only factory OF the
kind in the State. o.

THE parent organization of the anti
monopoly leagues, spreading over the
country, held a meeting in New York,
Wednesday evening. Mr.. l.. E. Chit
tenden, the President of the League,
explained its purposes in speech i'll
which he said:
Vanderbilt pays no taxes on his $780,
OOO, 900 of personal property nor on the
railroad which the city paid for and he
uses, while the people are paying a
direct tax of per cent. ON their prop
erty, and a tax to the railroad mOnOp-
olists on every necessary of llfe-On
coal for fuel of over so per cent. and on
wheat for bread of not less than 25 per
cent. on it's value. That is, the mon
Opolists take at least 81 out of every
S4 that is paid for food and fuel to pay
their own pockets in some way, in
addition to a fair return for the capital
invested in their enterprises.
Another speaker took for his text the
declaration of one of Jay Gould's New
York newspapers-either the Tribune
or the World-that the anti-mOnopoly
movement was communistic in its
character. He said:
The men who are encouraging COM
munism are the monopolists. The acts
of injustice they perpetrate upon the
community encourage disregard for
all property rights. The situation is
like boiler with a safety-valve of JUS
tice tied down. Explosion is only to
be feared if this policy of suppression
is continued. We propose to iberate
the safety valve by claiming Justice fol
the whole people. In country where
free suffrage rules there is no need o.
violence. We want "The freemen
casting with unpurcbased hand, the
vote that shakes the tu-rets of the
land" The free voters of this country
will organize and settle this great
question in a just. peaceable, yet effect
i've manner.

TIE Boston Herald publishes table
showing that eleven Fall River Mills,
which it names, paid in the year 1850,
average dividends amounting to 10 per
cent. per annum. The highest rates
of dividend was 10 pr cent, and the
lowest IL per cent. Stocks in these
properties worth par of 100 are quoted
at 140, 17o, l25 and 1S5. 1t seems that
in view of these extraordinary profits.
the Fall River spinners are not very
far out of the way in demanding an
increase of their panic wages. These
are among the poor, weak, "infant
manufactures" which demand that
they shall be fostered by imposing
heavy taxes upon imported goods to
shut out competition.

them. But recently something trans
pired that gave the faculty an oppor-
tunity of testing their own courage in
this matter. A few evenings since,
about forty five of our boys went, with
out excuses, to Alliance for the purpose
of attending the opera. This, of
course, was contrary to the rules, and
the names of those students We're
hapded to the faculty. Now came the
trial. Were the faculty going to back
down and not act, or to show their au-
thOrity? The students and citizens all
held that by the non action of the fac
ulty they would be willing to surren
der and the faculty recognized this
point. But what to do with so large a
crowd seems to be a hard question for
that august body to decide. To sus-
pend SO large crowd all at the same
time would give old Nick all opportu-
nifty to display himself, and this he
would certainly do. No action has as
yet been taken in the matter, and
whether any will be remains to be
seen. One thing is certain ; if col
lege has rules and regulations, those
having the authority ought to have
stamina enough to enforce them.
Every one entering this College knows
what the rules are, and if they violate
them, ought to be willing to suffer the
consequences. The one great failing
of this institution is the nOn-en force
ment of the rules. If the faculty pass
this case by in silence they are deserv-
ing of severe criticism, for 1T will es-
tablish precedent for the future. Let
the faculty strictly enforce the rules
and they will be more respected by the
students and by all concerned.

The violent deaths of rulers during
the last thirty years form startling
list. They begin with the Duke of
Parma, Ferdinand Charles Ill, who
was mortally stabbed by an unknown
man in March, 1854, dying day later.
In April, 1865, President Liucoln was
murdered by John w. Booth. In
June, 1868, Prince Michael, OF Servia,
was assassinated. In 1870, Gen. Prim,
who occupied so controlling an influ-
ence in Spain that he may well be in
cluded in the list, was killed in Mad
rid. In 1872, the Governor General
of India, Lord Mayo, was assassina-
ted. In 1871, Gen. Melgarijo, Dicta.
tor of Bolivia, and in 1872, President
Balta, of Peru, were murdered while
the same fate, in August, 1875, befel
President Moreno, of Ecuador, at
Quito. Shortly after, in 1877, Presi-
dent Gill, of Paraguay, perished. In
1879, Prince Krapotkine, Governor OF
Kharkoff, was assassinated aud now
the Gar of Russia is added to the
catalogue. Many more names, inclu
ding those ef rulers of England,
France, Prussia, Austria, Spain, Ger
many, Italy, Greece, Egypt aud Japan,
would have to be added, were the u2,
successful attempts at assassination IN
the last thirty years to be also emu
merated.
