Giuseppe Garibaldi.

philadelphia American.)

A generation is passing away. The illustrious
names which appear, month after month, in
the obituaries, are but the summit peaks OF
great mass of humanity that accompanied them
in life and escorts them in death. Those who
were making the world history in 1S3O-48 are
vanishing out of that history. Theirs, Russell,
Michelet, Bryant, Maurice, Greeley, Chevalier,
Mazzini, Carlyle, Emerson, Stanley, Darwin,
Longfellow, Garibaldi, have gone. Soon it will
be Victor Hugo, Moltke, Bismarck, Glad
stone, louis Blanc; and the places that know
them will know them no more.
No figure in the passing generation is more
picturesoue than Garibaldi's. He was man
born to attract the eyes and the sympathy OF
his fellows. His life was acted on the worlds
stage, and, for the most part, the worlds APP
plause. On the whole he merited the applause.
There were grave faults in his career lie had
not the sobriety of Judgment which should at
tend great undertakings. In latter life he be-
came egotistically arrogant in his dealings
with those who ventured to differ from him.
But, withal, his life was a singularly noble and

THE average per capita expenditure for
strong drink in England has fallen from 500
in 1875 to $40 in 1881. The effect was seen
in an immediate increase in the deposits in
the savings banks, although these amounts
do not yet reach to 10 per cent. of the mon
ey spent in liquor.

Some Internal Revenue Taxes

1t is to be sincerely hoped that any move
ment made in Congress to reduce the stamp
tax on patent medicines and perfumery will
be defeated. The manufacturers of these
articles of merchandise can well afford to
pay the tax. Its removal will not in all
probability remove the slightest burden
from consumers. They will be obliged to
pay just as much as before. The RENTED
tax will go into the pockets of dealers
whose profits are already large.
The tax on matches is quite another af-
fair. The lucifer match is an article of ne
cessity and the tax upon it is very great
quite as large as the cost of its manufac-
ture. The abolition of the stamp duty
would materially cheaper the cost of an
article that has become indispensable. So
something can wisely be done in this direc-
ton. But the tax on articles of luxury had
best remain. 1t yields some revenue and
its removal would be of 10 advantage to the
consumer
A CASE involving the rights of newspa-
per reporters is before the Chic Supreme
Court The Cincinnati board of education
having decided to go into secret session, two
reporters were excluded from the room.
The reporters, however, mounted ladder,
and from the roof were enabled to see and
hear the proceedings, which did not reflect
credit upon the board. In consequence,
resolution was passed excluding the two re-
porters from all future meetings of the
board, and at a subsequent meeting one of
them being persistent in his attempts to en-
ter was forcibly elected by the sergeant-at-
arms. The latter was prosecuted for assault
and found guilty in the police court. The
case was then taken to the Supreme Court,
the counsel for the board taking the ground
that the public has no right TO attend its
meetings. On the other side it is claimed
that the public, and particularly the repre-
sentatives of the press, have a right to al
tend and report the proceedings of all legis
lative bodies. The case is not yet decided

COLE re THE E1Ip


We trust our farmers will get ready
for the fair. They ought To be interested
in its success. The agricultural and
stock interests of the couaiy will be
more benefited by the exposition than
any other, therefore every farmer and
stock man should interest himself. Not
only should the farmer come to the fair
bat he ought to make arrangements to
bring his family. His coming, simply,
is not enough. All the members OF the
household should make 1t q point to
put something on exhibition. One OF
the boys may bring fine colt, and if il
is his own, there win be all the more
pride IN obtaining q prizv. Another
son may bring n calf or pig that he has
trained for the exhibition. AS for the
girls, there are thousands different
things that can be made with
the needle that will grace the
walls of the "woman's pavilion" or the
rooms of the household department.
Even so common a thing as a loaf OF
bread may be baked with special care,
and will attract much attention. Then
there are the garden vegetables, potatoes
IA new kind, perhaps-pumpkIns,
squashes, etc., and the products of the
farm and orchard. II Is not wise to
leave all these things at home, and then
criticise the exhibition because you can
say, I'VE have better things at home
To go and take things to the fair is moi
enough. The exhibition should become
q school at which ali exhibitors and Wis
itors make a study of the implements
cattle, poultry, fruit, grain, etc, that arr
there. A farmer may owe his success!
in growing some crop TO the knowledge
gained at a county fair. Tit
farmer that has a real prid'
in the farm win take great interes
in the local fair. and will exhibit The
best products of farm life in the boy!
and girls, who are interested exhibitor
at the fairs. The days at the fair SHOULD
be a social occasion, every one making i
point to meet many neighbors and
others with pleasant word. It is 1
place for asking and answering ques-
tions, and the person who goes through
the exhibition without opening his
mouth, is certainly not getting ali Thu
good that is within his reach. It is oul
advice that all come to the fair, all bring
something to show, and all find out a
much as possible about all the various
exhibits that are made by others. In
this way the days at the fair will bC
the most profitable. 1t may be that a
premium will not be taken by every one
but the prize money Is only small
part of the value that an exhibitor may
receive from fair, that has been used

JUDGE PERKINs, POSITION

The Kansas Farmer, having expressed
strong desire to hear from the Repub
lican nominees for congressmen-at-larg'
on the subject OF railroad legislation
and having addressed the Republican
nominees letters TO that effect, has re
ceived an answer from Hon. B. w. Per
kins. in which that gentleman takes q
practical view of the commercial inter.
ests of the country. The Judge believes
in being fair with the people and the
railroads. We take the following ex-
tract from his letter:
"With fraternal relations restored be-
tween the sections, with an adjustment
of all the difficulties and embarrass-
ments resulting from the war, and with
all men protected in all sections of our
Union, think among the next most
important questions demanding the
attention of our national law-making
power, is the question of interstate
commerce, the legitimate control of the
corporations of the land, and an adjust
ment of the tariff and revenue laws of
the country, so as to exalt and dignity
labor, and make the burdens rest as
0o PO5oAD4C great IutASS
OF our population.
Common carriers, being creatures of
the law, are subject TO the law. In 9TH
er words, in my judgment the creature
cannot become greater than the creator,
and / have no doubt of the right of con-
gress to enact such legislation as may
be necessary to make these servants of
the people perform their proper func-
tions and observe the rights Of the pub
lie. OF course am not a communist
or in sympathy with communist teach
ings, and would do no act of injustice TO
the railroads of the land, but corpora
tions that own in stocks and bonds
more than s4.650, O00, 900, or more than
twice the amount of our national debt,
and tax the people $500, 900 900 annually
for doing their business as carriers,
should be protected by adequate laws
ana be restrained by the strong arm of
national legislation from doing injus-
tice TO individuals or communities.
Entertaining these conditions, the
people Of Kansas can understand that if
/ should be honored with seat In con
gress will do what can IN my feeble
way TO secure legislation regulating in
ter-state commerce and compelling all
lines of communication and transporta-
ton 10 do the carrying business of the
country at moderate, fair and uniform
rate of compensation"

pRESTDEYT ARTHUE

The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press writes the following
interesting gossip concerning President
Arthur:
During the first part of his stay here
he was closely watched, and every poll
tician who came from New York and
boosted around the lobby OF Wizards
that he and Arthur were intimate friends
other under the table, found willing lis
teners and open-mouthed believers
There has been a good deal less OF
that sort of thing of late
The "old boys" were received rather
kindly at the white house ct first, but
the welcome soon grew cold and the
number of convivial visitors diminished
All the stories about the presidents
heavy drinking and rapid ways of liY.
ing that were current last spring have
been forgotten. Washington no longer
follows the president with the anxious
gaze of the village gossip or with any
unkindly suspicion. President Arthur
gives the public no ground to complain
of his conduct. He is at all times the
decorous and genial gentleman, and the
white house has rarely been freer from
Objectionable callers than now.
One principal reason why Mr.. Ar
thur finds his paths lying in pleasant
places is that he docs not deceive office
seekers or mislead them. He tells the
man who has not ghost of chance TO
get what he wants that fact in gentle
and kindly way, and does not encourage
applicants whose cases he knows to be
hopeless. 1t is true that some members
of congress complain that Mr.. Arthur
will not tell them anything, and only
the other day heard a senator contrast
this administration with the Hayes ad-
ministration, and declare that the latter
was more acceptable. He said that
Hayes was certainly gentleman, and
that persons who went TO the White
House were always sure to be kindly re-
ceived and we'll treated. He did not
find it so pleasant to go there now.
However this may be, it is worthy of re-
marks that Arthur as president is not
surrounded by any kitchen cabinet. He
is reputed to like to oblige some of the
ladies in Washington society, who now
and then take hand in public affairs,
but no one man or woman has obtained
any such footing at the White House as
to be able to set up as a mediaiory be-
tween the President and those who seek
to reach him.
