principal amusements. Before departing,

Changing the literary to spelling
school had been the theme of converse
ton for the past week, as lack Of inter-
est had been shown by most of the
members for the last six or eight weeks.
But when the subject was brought before
the society last night, a few were opposed
to the change, saying that IF the literary
was conducted properly, and each and
every one would respond when he was
called on, it would be benefit to the
town." etc. This is all true, but when
they won't respond, and won't even at
tend, it would certainly be better to
change it to something they are inter-
ested in, and that would benefit them.
However, the literary will continue, or be
tried few more times; and let each and
every one come and carry the literary
through the remainder of the winter. A
good program was arranged for the next
meeting, Jan. 30, and let all whose names
were on come prepared. VIC.

Madison Wis., Democrat: When Mr..
Mills, who has charge of the Tariff bill,
drove home the income tax spike the de-
tenders Of protective tariff for trusts must
have felt asif they would like to creep
through knothole in the floor. Mr.. Mills
said:
Congress had imposed q tax on income to help
carry on the war. and there were 460.l7O people
in the United States in 1865 that had S7O7 900
OF net income upon which they we're assessed a
duty which brought into the Treasury in 1886
ga, 900. But the tax had gone. II was tax
on wealth. 1t was said to be inqulsitorial in its
nature. II was said TO be oppressive. This tax
was swept away, but the war tax on clothing,
uqon food and upon labor still remained
That was tax upon wealth-wealth
protected by the goyernment-but that was
oppressive. The tax has been kept up on
the farmer, machanic and workingman for
twenty years since the tax upon wealth
was repealed. 1t has been kept up so high
and 50 long that all the public debt that
can be paid is paid, and the tax rolls into
the treasury faster than Congress can
waste 1t on all sorts Of jobs. Wealth,
monopoly, trusts fatten on the protection
this tax affords, and still the monopolies
and trusts oppose any reduction of the tar
upon the people. There is not in all his.
tory anything more infamous han thi,
which goes right on whthe the people hay,
