''What are we here for" has be-
come famous political expression.
It applies with greater force to the
problem Of life. What are we here
for? Is it simply to toll, and eat,
and sleep, and pass away into the I'M
known land beyond the mountain
chain that divides time from eternity
What are we here for? Is it to strug-
gle and acquire riches for our children
to quarrel over? The sum of human
Life Is to make as many people happy
as possible. Make your children and
your wife and your neighbors happy.
In doing this you purify your own
soul, and the future may be trusted
to Him that doeth all things well

Composure is very often the high
est result of strength. Did we never
see man receive a fragrant insult,
and only grow little pale and then
reply quietlyP That was man spir-
itually strong. Or did we never see
a man in anguish stand, as if carved
out of solid rock, mastering himself /?
or one bearing hopeless daily trial
remain silent, and never tell the world
what it was that cankered his home
peace? That is strength. He who
with strong passions eemains chaste;
he who, keenly sensitive, with manly
power of indignation in him, can be
provoked and yet refrain himself, and
forgiVe;- these are strong men, spir-
itual heroes.

One of the prominent issues in
the national campaign which re-
suited in Democratic ascendency was
the question Of revenue taxation
The Democratic party pledged itself
to reduce, to the extent it was able,
the heavy burdens imposed upon the
people. Every wise Government
seeks to make taxation as light as
possible. Every dollar of the enor-
NOUS revenues of the Government is
taken from the hard earnings of the
people. Every dollar represents about
q days labor of one man somewhere.
The policy Of wisdom. the policy OF
caution, would lead to reduction of
taxation when possible, and the most
economical expenditure Of the reve-
nues at all times. There is no ques-
ton that this principle has not con-
trolled the Government while under
Republican auspices, and that it
ought to do so now. The Admins
tration 10 pledged to it. The people
demanded ii at the polls; and it can
not be thrust aside any longer than
till an opportunity is found for reach
ing it. The evil of the existing sys-
tenn works night and day for the de-
struction of all commercial stability.
It must, therefore, be reformed, or it
will reform itself with dire effect.
The reform in taxation is indeed
the first step to any reform, 1t is a
condition precedent almost to every
other needed in the public service
By it alone we can secure economical
appropriations and care in public ex-
penditures. Administrative reform,
when it does not begin with a reduc-
ton of revenues, is of little and that
Of only temporary value. The only
way toreyive American shipping is
to reform the abuses which our reve-
nue. system imposes upon it. The
only way to increase our foreign
trade is to put it upon an equal foot
ing with It's competitors in foreign
markets. The only way to allay the
growing discomfort among thew work
ing classes is, TO reduce taxation, and
thus, by giving greater purchasing
power to wages, salaries and fixed
investments, meet the competition
with European labor, whichis almost
entirely unrestricted. The only re
lief we can afford to the distressed
manufacturers is enlafgethe free
list, enabling them to get their raw
materials on such terms as to make
competition possible. Nothingo ught
to appeal so directly to all classes o.
American worhmsn andwage-earneri

and the increased purchasing power

Public Roads.
From Planters Journal.l

From Planters Journal.
We have heretofore several times
in these columns urged upon the att
tentien of the people the wisdom OF
making good public roads. The
farmer is directly interested in secur-
ing good roads. because he has to
travel over chem, whether going on
business or pleasure. The towns are
indirectly interested in the question,
for the more easily the products OF
labor reach a market the ivelier and
freer trade is. The season Of the
annual road-workings is now at hand,
and road-overseers should use their
utmost efforts to get the highways in
good condition. Probably the most
important point to be gained-and it
is the one usually least considered
is the proper drainage of the eontigu-
Gus land TO the road. In the first
place the road-bed should be graded
SO as to slope from the centre towards
each side. Should the surrounding
land be low and flat, bitches must be
cut to carry off the water, else work
viii be thrown away in raising
grade. For, if water stands constant
ly on both sides, the roadway must
become wet, and with the passage of
wagons and other vehicles over it be
cut into holes or worked into an i'm
passable bog. 1t is admitted that the
road laws generally are defective and
inadequate, and the greatest vigilance
and activity can only partially attain
the end sought, good roads. But
here and there a county Board of
Supervisors OF parish Police Jury
have the wisdom to supplement the
general law by special legislation, and
thus secure the inestimable benefit of
good roads to their communities
A few scrapers and plenty Of shovels,
furnished by the county or parish,
and a good deal of attention and
supervision by the officers themselves,
will be found wise and economical
expenditures, both of money and
time. One of the greatest needs of
the South is the immigration of small
farmers agricultural industrialists,
who, to quote homely saying, 'live
at home and board at the same place. /"
The attention of such men in all
parts of the world is turning towards
AS and that community which offers
such Inducements as good public
reads and public schools will secure
them as citizens. Good public roads
are q public blessing, conducive to
the prosperity and happiness of the
people. Let unusual efforts be made
toward securing such this summer
and fall"
