The Soldiers, Monument.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Plesse allow me space in the columns of
your paper for few words in regard to the
proposed Soldiers monument" which has
been under public discussion for SO long
period.
It seems to me that the citizens of New
Haven are taking very little interest in her
veteran soldiers" Some five years ago
ground was G. given them on the public square
for monument and it was dedicated by the
Grand Army of the Republic for
that purpose, but for some reason,
of which the soldiers are ignorant, it could
not be placed there But since East Rock
Park has been laid out committee was ap-
pointed Consisting mostly of the East Rock
Park commission) who finally decided to have
the monument placed there, which is entire
ly against the wishes of the majority of the
citizens of the city of New Haven.
They feel that they have been treated q
shabby manner and I speak for them as well
as myself, and as I have talked with quite a
number of them their feelings in this matter
are precisely the same as my own. The idea
of placing soldiers monument upon sum
NIT of q rock seems preposterous and it is not
only creating severe criticism throughout
this State but through other States well,
there in this State. or anv
rock two miles from the center of the city?
Again, what benefit will it be to the sol
diers? None, whatever, for we can plainly
see that it is to benefit the Park and not the
soldiers. Why not place it near the center
of the city, the same as in other cities, SO
that the soldiers Especially the aged
and cripple0 and our families
can go at our leisure and look
at it and not be compelled to ride in dusty
horse cars and pay one dollar or more car
fare for our families and then climb a mile
farther before reaching our destination?
Mr.. Editor, 1 will now ask that committee
if they think they are doing justice to the
old veterans of the war. 1 will say
here that we think they are doing
as a great injustice and we sin
cerely- hope that it will not prevail,
If they wish to know the sentiments of the
soldiers in regard to it let them call meet
ing and vote on it and Pll warrant you it will
never go on that rock by the soldiers vote.
We trust that this committee will reflect
before they fully decide and ask themselves
if they think they are doing right before go
ing ahead.

FROM the SATURDAY heVleW.1
The first 1.-THE on movables was granted,
or enacted, by papal authority, in 1888, for
the second crusade. From 1894 subsidies of
a fifteenth on goods IN general, and tenth
from tenants of the royal demesne, became
the principal form of direct taxation. Poll
taxes, (so-called,) varying according to rank,
we're levied in 1877 and 1880, and on other
occasions, the maximum being go groats, the
minimum one groat {4d) for man and wife.

to mean fixed sum of about 93S. 900, grad
ually sinking with the decay of particular
towns to f32. 900 levied by fixed assessment
on each shire and borough. A tax thus limi
ted became, with the growth of national
wealth and needs, ridiculously inadequate
A new land tax of five per cent. was granted

But the customs on wool and hides exported

mont and regular revenue of the crown, and
during the war of the Roses almost the sole
addition to the yield Of the royal estates.
This hereditary revenue, however, suffced
for the ordinary expenses both of the State
and the household. The great popularity of
Edward ". with the citizens, especially of
London, enabled him to raise considerable
benevOlenoes, a practice which, forbidden by
act of Parliament on the accession of Rioh-
ard III, was resumed and carried to an often
oppressive extent by Henry VIII. and his
children. The old fftsenths and tenths are
still granted FROM time to time, but under the
Tudors were accompanied by subsidies in the
nature of an income tax of 4s. on the rental
of lands and 2s Sd. on the total value of
goods-yis1ding about ESQ, 900. Each subsi-
dy was accompanied by clerical grant of
g. in the pound Of annual value, worth about
$40, 600 The last grant made to Elizabeth
was for four subsidies and eight fftsenths
and tsnths, amounting in all perhaps to

We take pleasure in announcing to our
readers that we shall begin tomorrow the
publication of a series of letters by ''Max
O'Rell," who is best known in this country
the author of "John Bull and His Isle, ="
and "John Bulls Daughters" We do not
need to say to those who have read either of
these books that their author is an unusually
bright and able writer The letters which
we shall publish will deal with the passing
events of the week throughout Europe, but
especially in London and Paris, with in
teresting anecdotes of "high life" prominent
persons, etc. 1t is expected that they will
contain much that is not to be found in ord
nary correspondence, and prove to be very

THE LOGAN CONFERENCE.


Kate Field has been paying attention to
gan, and in letter to the Boston Herald she
sets forth in a very interesting way some of
the peculiar features of the affair. It differ
ed much from the conference held year
ago in the Salt Lake tabernacle. Then John
Taylor, George Q. Cannon, Joseph F. Smith
and all the apostles sat on high and dictated
to the saints. Now Joseph Smith is in the
Sandwich Islands, with one of his wives,
and John Taylor and George @. Cannon are
in hiding to escape the clutches of United
States marshals. Why the conference was
removed from Salt Lake City to the small
northern town of Logan is not precisely
known Report whispers that Logan's
church cooperative store being heavily
handicapped with old goods, great gatter-
ing of the saints in that locality would ena-
BILE the store to unload. The saints combine
spring shopping with religious eommuning
But Miss Field thinks that the conference
was held in Logan because it was thought
best to attract as little attention as possible
to it, Except on the Union Pacific north and
east of Ogden the usual cheap conference
railroad rates were not given. The usual
side-show meetings-the constitutional con-
vention, board of trade, etc. were not held.
1t has been the practice heretofore to read
out in open conference the names of persons
appointed to missions and take vote on
them. This year the names were not read.
''The church, says Kate Field, twill un-
doubtedly send on missions all polygamists
who are within reach of United States mar
shals; consequently it would have been stu
pid to advertise their departure" Every
thing was done hurriedly and secretly as
possible. The reporter Of the {tGentile'D
Salt Lake Tribune found the doors barred
against him. A leading tGentile" merchant
of Logan was similarly excluded.
The speechmaking at the convention was
not particularly notable, with the exception
of the remarks of Apostle J. W. Taylor, an
illiterate son of President Taylor
He said among other things: ''The
Gentle judges are like you
and I (sic). They have their living to
make and are ready to make
it, if they can, off the saints. They
(the judges care nothing for the morals of
the people. The government cares nothing
for the morals, but they are for money and
power, and they see we are SO well organized
that we are walking into Idaho, to Arizona,
and they see that we will send five represen-
tatives and six Senators to Congress, and they
do not want US" The bold apostle oonclud-
ed thus: tsThe DAY will come when women
will come here and ask men to take away
their reproach by letting them be called by
the name of the men, as polygamy has been
advertised over the world, and will BECOME
UNIVERSAL"
Notwithstanding Apostle Taylors big talk
the conference was not very impressive af-
fair. It is evident that the Mormons have
begun to realize that the United States gov
ernment is at last in earnest about them.

preface: "The stage is sometimes set for a
melodrama and sometimes for a drama that
is nothing more than a reflection of ordinary
life; but it not infrequently happens that
the quiet human quality of an impretentious

the interest of willing auditors as more am
bilious performances" Mr.. Bunce is

things.

Ladies of good taste are fas-
tidious about Gloves. We have
learned long ago that it pays
better to keep the best gloves we
can find, and sell them on
small margin than to try to get
a larger profit on anything not
SO good. We never forget that.
1T pays BETTER: that is why we
stick to it. For an example of
excellence in quality look at the
frame-made, spun-silk Jersey
Gloves we have just opened.
You will not find anywhere a
glove of the kind of a more per-
feet fit and finish. All the prop
er colors are there too, amber,
beige, Havana, mastique, tans,

meritorious article, see the Lisle

cause they are good. Even the
