KINGDOMS OF HOME.

The restlessness of American people is
proverbial. There are very few communi-
ties where generation has succeeded related
generation in the undisturbed ownership of
land or the possession Of other property.
Homes are broken up and families scattered.
In many instances the parents remain at the
old farm while the sons are in business In
the widely separated cities Of the country,
while daughter or daughters have married
comparative stranger to the household and
left for other parts.
1t is in the country, however, that shows
the least of rapid change of personages in
the cast of the human comedy. The fever
of modern improvement and modern de-
velopment, which is manifest the land
over, and which characterizes the whole
people with unrest is intensified in the
towns and cities where excitement of specu-
latlon is added to the enthusiasm of legiti-
maie success. Homes are sold at the first
considerable advance, others bought and the
household removed TO them. Fortunes,
large and small, are placed upon the most
hazardous risks.
The race for distinction is almost as eager
as that for wealth. Boys are told from their
cradles that they are possible presidents.
The plan of life which SO often considers
public and political distinction as ambitions
necessary to happiness has misled many
thousands into inevitable disappointment
1t has long been accepted as theory that
the only peace is in the calm, but the calm.
ness of mediocrity is not enough of prac-
tice amsng the American people. Euro
peans understand the real comforts OF home,
the restfulness Of a complete family society,
better than the wanderers of the new world.
There can be no real domestic happiness
where there is no real domestic society,"
There can be no real domestic society where
the father is concerned with the complex
responsibilities of diversified fortune or
the anxieties of a great ambition, and when
the thoughts of her next novel divert the
thoughts of the mother.
But there are few people who dream as
do the American people. They have excuse
for the tendency, but little reward for the
indulgence. Only few can be great or
wealthy. The rewards of the eminent and
the rich are over colored to the youth
Some day he awakens TO this fact and also
to that great delusion. possibilities" These
are sad disillusions, but generally leave the
mind in happier, healthier frame than it
was before. Ambition is lsudable, but en-
inence no longer reflects the personal credit
upon the man thatit once did. II Is not the
all in all. "Poor and content" may be

NOT A TAX.

Mr.. Mckinley still insists that the tariff
is not tax. If duty is not tax, and a
tax paid by the consumer, why did the Nc
Kinley bill remove the tariff from sugar 7
Why are the people of Brazil, San Domingo
and Cuba to be congratulated upon repeating
the duties on American productsP
Mr.. Mckinley admits that "in the case Of
protective tariff il may for time be paid
by the consumer while we are building up
the industry, but when we have reached
the successful manufacture of any product
in the United States under protecting
tariff, competitor at home fixes and regu-
lates the price, and the American consumer
does not pay the tax"
Well, we have been from thirty to one
hundred years "building up" most of the
protected industries, increasing the duties
all the time. So that, according to Mr.. Nc
Kinley's admission, the great bulk of the
duties have been and still are taxes paid BY
American consumers. And If "competition
at home fixes and regulates the price of sue
cessful manufacture" what need is there oil
a dutye
The high tariff has not shut out all foreign
goods. Protection organs boast that impor-
tations are larger than they were before Its
passage. Our people pay the increased duty
or fine, for the sake of getting articles which
they prefer or must have. And all the Gus
tom duties actually collected are taxes paid
by the consumers.
