THE DIRECT TAX MATTER.

From the Globe Democrat.
The country will be pleased at the as
surance which comes from Washington
that the direct tax bill is at last to be-
come a law. 1t has been before several
congresses, and has been discussed almost
as exhaustively as any other question
ever before the national legislature ex-
cept the tariff, silver coinage and the
French spoliation claims. The people
have long since made up their minds re-
garding this matter Outside of the
states which seeded, public sentiment
ingly in favor of the measure. Prac-
tically speaking, about all the opposition
it has received in congress has been from
in Republican hands for a dozen years
without much trouble. As the house,
however, during most of this time has
been controlled by the Demo
met with in that body. And when,
the Democratic majority in the house
then being small, the bill eventually ran
the gauntlet of that branch successfully,
it was vetoed by President Cleveland. In
the present instance, however, it will re-
ceive different treatment from the exec
utive.
The bill refunds the money paid by
the states to the Federal government un-
der the calls of 1861 and 1862, the money
being used by the Federal authorities as.
part of the fund employed in suppressing
the rebellion. Each state was required
TO contribute according To its population,
and nearly every state outside the region
in arms against the government respond
ed promptly. About 81. DOC, 900 in all
was paid in. and 81. 800, 900 is still due,
principally from the south. None of the
states which failed to pay in their
quota can receive, under present
conditions, any dues whatever from
the government until these claims are
satisfied. The bill soon to be sent TO the
president will wipe out this score against
the delinGuents, and put them on the
same footing. IN this respect, as the rest
of the country. To the Democratic as
well as the Republican section Of the
country, therefore. this measure should
be satisfactory. 1t pays back TO the old
loyal states the amounts which they con-
tributed, md i: cancels the debt borne bv
the other states The arrangement is
scrupulously just TO 81 concerned.
Such opposition az has been brought
against the bill on constitutional grounds
may readily hs disposed OF. Three out
OF every four OF the leading lawyers OF
congress are convinced that on legal
grounds it can not be successfully assall-
ed. The government can safely refund
the amount of money involved, and the
states which are 10 receive 1t Will DC bene-
fitted by the transaction.

THE "oLD KANSAN."

Never again, no, never again
Shall the eve of the trav'ler behold,
That naked, boundless, treeless plain,
Tn charming vision of the "Kanzan
old"
Now teeming fields of golden grain
By the eye, of the tourist, is seen,
Where once free. unpeopled plain,
A shining sheen, a waving sea of green.
In tn "old days." when the prairies were
free,
Naught, save wild herds on them were
seen,
And the .'Kanzan DID," in frolicsome glee,
Sank to sweet rest on carpet of green
In tn old days the climate was mild,
JOYS and sorrows sweetly were blended.
Th' winds were tempered for natures
child,
And at nightfall troubles were ended.
In the "old days" when the plow was IN
known,
Unfretted and fresh the carpet of sod,
The "Kanzan DID," king on his throne,
Acknowledged no master save God.
In the heart of the "Kanzan old" wealth
nor power
Enkindled its allUring. transient fame
He bravely lived, alone, for the passing
hour:
Meier dreamed of grandeur, glory or
fame
He had no vision of hustle and roar,
No thought of commerce or freight:
To the whole world stood open his door.
The rich and poor, the ignoble and great.
To destroy wild beauty, toll, fret and die,
The pioneer came, with arm and brain;
And the vision that run TO thu western
sky.
Forever was DER on the wind-swept
plain.
There's JOY in the pioneer life
Which the powerful and rich ne'er know:
There's happiness shines in the face OF
his wife,
There was joy in the home, content in
tn field,
Abiding trust in the providence OF God,
That he who sowed would have yield,
Bountifnl, from the fresh turn sod.
There's sadness as well as pleasure,
"A
Though there's many vision we treasure.
We often sigh as we look back on the
plaIn.
Though only weak souls, in childish
desire,
Long for the past to return,
The old Kansan's heart is fired,
AS. in fancy, he sees wild prairie fires
burn.
Scenes long gone, unbidden rise.
AS from the earth before his eyes,
Years of toll, hopes and fears
Freighted with JOY and watered in tears;
Changeful fancies of that prairie home,
That lowly cottage of fresh turned sod,
Hayward children that far from him
roam;
The face of their mother, at home wi God.
Years of happiness crowded with care,
Care made lighter, with love;
Love that made labor pleasure:
Pleasure akin to the pleasure above;
Years O. bliss, tn hearts fondest treasure,
GLADDEN. his soul in tuneful measure,
Yet DER the bright vision a shadow is
thrown
AS onward in life he Journeys alone.
There's now a city, thousand bright
homes,
On th' land he ploughed for his first sod
corn.
He, stranger, aimlessly roams
Where his wife died and his babes were
born.
Forever gone are the pioneers,
Mem'ry alone recalls the ''Kansan old"
Yet the story of their joys, hopes and
fears
Will never by mortal be told
