Three-Fifths of IL Possessed by Thirty

Let us inquire whether there Is any
excessive concentration of wealth go
ing on in the United States of Amer
lea Leaving mere clamor and un-
supported assertions out of considera-
ton. on either side, let US look into
facts. As lately as 1647 there was but
one man in this country who was re-
puted to be worth more than s., O00.-
000; and though some estimated his
wealth at $50, coo. 600, there Is no good
reason for believing it to have been So.
great. At the smallest reasonable e.
innate, there must now be more than
250 persons in this country whose
wealth averages over $50. 900. 600 for
each. But let US call the number only
200. Income-tax returns show that
the number OF incomes when arranged
in large classes multiplies By from
three to ive-fold for every reduction
in the amount of one-han For ex-
treme caution, however. we estimate
the increase in the number of incomes
at a very much lower rate than this
At this reduced rate, the amount OF
wealth in the hands OF persons worth
over $500, 900 each in the United
States would be about as follows.

MEMORIES.

Once more beneath my yearning eyss
The deep-secluded vale appears;
Once more / see the mountains rise
That, in the diuly distant years,
Behold our bitter parting tears.
The meadow path by which We walked
In those old days that were SO sweet
The stream that talks as then it talked,
The low-roOfed church, the village street,
That once was glad beneath her feet
Each common object seoms 70 say
With me in mute, complaining moan:
THE Light is parted from our day;
She once was here, but now is gone,
And We are left alone-aloneV
wander on, yet, as so,
The Joy TO view each weIl-Ioved gcene
Is vanquished by the greater woe,
4 To think OF all that might havo been.
Had hard fate not stepped between.
Farewell, once more, my heart's sad home:
Once more go; yet, wheresoeer
Through length of weary days l roam
tone memory, heart-enshrined bear
This mountain valley green and fair,
And the sweet flower tha. blossomed there.
