THE ENGLISH UTOPIA.

England is the country where socialism has the strongest hold. It is interesting to notice what the new radicalism proposes to of it's purposes it would municipalize ground values-that is to say, it would pour into the public purse all the wealth which has been created by the community and absorbed by the ground landlords. It would place the great monopolies, such as light, water and food supply, in the han ds of the repre- sentatives of the people. It would lay down as it's principles gradual orga nization of CO., operative in place of competitive existence. It would develoEe system of complete local autonomy in England and Wales, beginning with the open vestry and rising to the nation al council. It would place in the hands of these bodies, elected on adult suffrage, full powers of dealing with the land. It would give the people the effective results of 8 democratic franchise by widening their choice of representatives through the pay ment of members of parliament. It would recognize the general principle that the State should pay it's servants but it would equalize the reward of the humble and the highly plaC6Q OIAclalS. 1G WOulu Qum8Q1Z6 the fOOr law and substitute the pensions of the people for those of the privileged. It would place in the hands of the county council full powers for re-housing the poor n dwellings held at fair rent. It would devote itself to the solution of the over-mastering problem of the unemployed and nskiled laborer, driven by the force of competition to seek continually lower margin of subsistence. It aims at continuous regulation of the con- ditions and hours of labor. It desires graduated and differentiated income tax and seeks always to transfer the weight of taxa tion from the shoulders of industry to un- earned wealth. It is for placing the whole burden of the permanent improvement of our towns on the shoulders of the ground land lords, who reap the benefit of it. It is, of course, for free education, and for one free, connected, democrstized system of higher and technical instruction, placed within the reach of the humblest citizen. Equally of course, it would abolish the House of Lords. and all the appanages and supports of feudal or plutocratic ruling class.
 This is somewhat comprehensive plan. It will not be carried out very soon, and per hsps never, but it indicates what many peo- pie in England are thinking about. England will be fine place to live in when the so- cialists succeed in making everybody there comfortable and happy.

A Glimpse Of Fad Lincolns
 From Wide Awake.T

' | Both the steward and the cook had remon- ! strated with "Msster Tad" upon bringing in ! to the kitchen of the White House, "such ! squads of poor, dirty, hungry street urchins | to be fed''; and at last Peter said that Mrs. I Lincoln must be told. Tad flew into rage, ran upstairs to see l his mother himself, and on finding her out searched the place for his busy father. Meanwhile tine small objects of his charity waited at the lower door-for Peter had abso- lutely refused to let them 'tstep inside" The indignant boy spied his father just crossing the yard, with head bowed, eyes to the ground, talking earnestly to MT. Seward as they walked to the Department of State together. He cried out to him at once: "Fa- therl father! can't bring those poor cold, hungry boys home with me whenever I want toa Isn't it our kitchen?'' By this time Tad had his father by the hand who stopped short to listen to the frantic ap- peal.
 Can't give them good warm dinner to- day, saya They're just as hungry as bears, and two of 'em are the boys of a soldier, too! and, father, I'm going to discharge Peter this minute, if he don't get out the meat and chicken and pies and all things we had left yesterday. Say, maynt II Isn't it our kitchen, fathera''
 Secretary Seward was shaking with laugh
 ter Mr. Lincoln turned to him with twin
 kle: Steward, advise with me. This case re-
 quires diplomacy"
 MT. Seward patted Tad on the back and
 said he must be careful not to run the Gov
 ernment in debt, and the President took Tad's
 little brown hands in his own big one, and
 with @ very droll smile bid him to 'srun along
 home, and feed the boys, "and added, "Tell
 Peter that you are really required to obey the
 Bible by getting in the maimed and the blind,
 and that he must be better Christian than
 he isl"
 In less than an hour Mir. Seward said they
 passed through the yard on their way to the Cabinet meeting, and no less than ten small boys were sitting with Tad on the lower
 steps, cracking nuts and having "State Din- ner."
 Mir. Lincoln remarked that the "kitchen
 was ours"

and then fell heavily on the ground. A mighty and exultant whoop arose from the onlooking warriors. Matonka savagely mo- toned them to silence. Rolling Bear lay dying on the ground, blood bubbliDg from his breast and trickling from his mouth. His indomitable spirit looked through glaz- ing eyes at Matonka and expressed his con- tempt for death ard for all Columbia Plains Indians as it left his body.
 Matonka bent low over the body of Roll ing Bear and tore his scalp from his head and waved is high above his own as he sang his song of victory, and his warriors joined in discordant shouts of chorus.
