FREE PASSES.

Col John II. Savage has Il bill!
prepared, which he will introduce
IN the next Legislature, prohibiting
state and county officials from &C
cepting Tree passes from Railroad.
Some such bill should be passed.
We do not believe there is any real
antagonism between the interest OF
the people, and the interests of the
railroad, but both the railroads and
the people think there is. So long

by the Legislature. They should
also be controlled by law so as t.
secure equal and just rates to all

no right to make unjust discrimina-

Tight Shoes.

"Women who pose as models have,
as a rule, poorly shaped feet" re-
marked az artist 10 a reporter. Ell
their feet are not poorly shaped they
are apt to b. out OF proportion 10y
being tSo small. The reason is OBJ
vious. Women are ambitious to
have small feet and hands, and at
an early age begin to wear tight
shoes. The result is that their feet
are cramped and do not grow with
other mem bers of the body. OF
course there are some professional
models who began early IN lie and
never cramped their feet with tight
shoes. They have correct proper
tions. ! speak generally OF the
mass Of women who become models
after they are eighteen years old.
Women imagine if they have small
feet and hands they have all that T.
necessary To give them q shapeIY
appearance a worse mistake was
never made. Women who are large
should naturally have feet in pro-
portion; from an artistic point of
view they look better. But you can
not make them think so.
"a crusade ought to be waeed
against wearing tight shoes. The
tight shoe in the first place cramps

GOOD WORK.

Comptroller Pickard deserves great
credit tor his satisfactory manage
ment of the states fraAces during a

ceptional, and at times apparently
insuperable, difficulties. With the
extraordinary demands upon the
states resources caused by the pay
menr of back interest On bonds, over
halt million Of Bank of Tennessee
certificates and old issue aud extra
expenses and appropriations of the
legislature, 1t required excellent
management and special tact and

work he was ably seconded by the
late treasurer, James w. Thomas.

sun to consider his bill to reduce the

against it, The democrats have

Raduea The taxes

The statesmen Of the United
States are now struggling desperately
with the problem OF how to get rid
Of our Surplus revenue. That the
collection by taxation Of more mon
ey than the Government needs
should ever be allowed TO become a
great and threatening evil, and
that the craftsmanship Of
great nation should be found un-
equal to Its correction is certainly
most singular state of affairs.
While other nations are taXin g the
wisdom of thsir statesmen in order
to provide a suficiency Of revenue
to meet the current and necessary
expenses Of government, the United
States continues, year after year, to
exact millions of dollars from its cit
liens in excess Of lis needs and re-
quirements, takes from the people
money for which it has 10 uze, and
then vexes itself because of the sur
plus revenue which it has thus coll
lected. 1t must strike the citizens
Of other nations with surprise 10
hear that a government is taxing
out of the pockets Of its citizens such
an excessive amount CT revenue that
1t threaens the very direst disast sr to
the country. and does not know what
to 90 to avert it.
IF there was ever a case of dark
ching wisdom by words without
knowledge it is presented in the ar
guments offered aud the schemes
proposed by the protectionists in re-
gard to this question. The plain
common sense of every man car
give the ISOLATION to the problem
concerning which protectienist states
men ara Puzzling their brains anC
ta8king their ingenuity. WheI
taxation produces more than enough
revenue for the expenses of gov
e nmei economically administered
it is too high and should be reduced
| The plain answer, and the onH
intelligent answer to the complain
that our revenues are excessive, i
reduce them; cut down the take
which produce more money than th
! Government needs, When it Il
asked upon what should taxes l.
reduced, the answer is equally plan
and simple. Let them be taken q
of the necessaries of life. Let tn
burden be removed from those upor
whom it bears heaviest. Let it b
removed from the poor mau's cloth
, ing, off of the poor mans fuel, h.
food, the implements by which h
earns his living and the materia
to build his house, Let 1t faI
heaviest upon those most able
bear it, and upon such ar
ticles as are not necessary t
sustain life 1t would seem tina
such policy is so plain in It's wis
doH' that it needs no argument t.
enforce 1t. Yet there is a class Of SO
called statesmen in this country VIII
stuObornly resist every effort to ac
complish this end. and who seek t,
meetit with the counter proposition
To reduce the iuxuries Of lite and il
crease them upon necessaries. ADC
In the meantime the Government
and few grasping, rapacious mon.
opoIists continue their unholy part
