ONE Of the most astounding features
Of Republicanism is, that men who
embrace 1t as taught now can resist the
appeals Of their neighbors and ruthlessly
vote for higher taxes Neither the con
dition Of the farmer nor Of the working
man Of this country is such as to war.
rant heavier burdens. But the
Republicans, in their mad worship OF the
money devil, never stop to think
whether there is possibility Of being
wrong, but vote against the interests Of
sheir neighbors, friends and the custo-
mers of their shoTs in the interests OF
dis ant corporations already worth mill
lioi Of dollars. Even If this burden OF
taxation on the plea of increasing wealth
were a good thing. it might be delayed q
little while to allow the people to recover
from the depression which exists now.

GEORGIA'S LATEST RACE MOVE.
Colored Taxpayers to Support Colored
Schools.

special to the Philadelphia Press from Au-
gusta, Ga, says: Any Georgian to be elected to
either the state senate or house of representa-
tives at the approaching election will have a
hard struggle to pull through. Besides the
many questions that will be propounded to
them by the Farmers Alliance, the white voters
will demand that each candidate fully explains
his position on a new issue that has recently
sprung up. This is to have the constitution of
Georgia so changed as to allow the taxes paid
by the whites to be exclusively used in edu-
eating white children, which will necessarily
make the colored people rely upon their own
money to send their children TO school. 1t is
claimed by constitutional lawyers that the
change can be legally made, for Alabama has a
similar law, Many voters OF the state complain
that for the past twenty years they have been
burdened with taxation to educate colored
children 1t is now proposed to make the colored
man shoulder the responsibility of educating
his own offspring This issue will be the most
important OF all questions that will be brought
up during the campaign and the majority of
white voters will require the candidates to
pledge their support for the adoption Of the
constitutional amendment suggested.
