| The Republicans of Massachusetts, boldly
declare that there has bsen no extravaganza
in the pension business. On the statement
let the Republican party stand or fall. Look
at the facts, Thirteen years age Mr.. Gar
| field advocated an appropriation of $685.
! 600, 600 for pensions. His opinion was that
high watermark would be reached in an an.
nual expenditure of thirty or thirty five
million per annum, aud after that q gradual
decline might bs expected. Mr. Garfield
was mistaken. The appropriations for th Q
fiscal year ending June 30. 1889 were $751;
644, 779. for the year ending June 30, 80
$109, 357, 534, for the year ending June 80,
'91, 1924, Ais, 951. The appropriation for
the current year is $133, 173, ,OS5 and COM
m issioner Rsum encourages US with the
hope that the expenditures of his depart
ment will not go beyond that figure. But
this is not all, Commissioner Raum informs
US that there are in all 919, 426 pension
claims pending. Nearly one million of claims
yet to be adjudicated, and the presumption
is that most Of them will be granted. Who
can foresee where this thing will end? The
Grand Army of the Republic wants th g
earth and seems 20 be in fair way to get
ii, 50 far as the United States is concerned.
We have heard great deal about the tax
ridden countries of Europe their expensive
mooarchies and military establishments,
and yet il ia q fact that the per capita taxa
tion io the United States is greater than in
any European country except France. Ac
cording to the figures given iu the American
dtnanac the taxation Of everything in this
country amounts to an average Of 1888
for every individual The per capita taxa
tion in FAance $17.41, in England $15.0 .0S,
in Austria $13 81, in Italy $l1 .25, 10 Prussia
Sc 90, and in Russia $5 3S. Perhaps the
Republican political economist will tell us
| that our prosperity is due to our heavy
taxation. That seems to be the Republican
theory-make the people rich by taxing
them. Adrance.

Tha power to threw 4 stone OF to WELD

of self mastery, a concentration of forces, q

When We come to the far more complicat-

the power over self necessary to pursue
them effectively must be proportionately
extensive and complete.
That which you claim another might do
