Under the head of "wastefulness Of the
Republican party" we notice in tie Belfast
Age paragraph credited to Belford's Maya
zine, which makes the assertion that, when
all other demands had been provided for by
the Fifty-frst Congress, sit passed the Dr.
rect Tax Act, by which nearly twenty mill
ions If money is to be paid over to certain
States that were really not asking for It, and
for which nobody was asking except some
lobbyist attorneys who had contingent con-
tracts with the States, and who will be the
actual benefciaries." 1t seems hardly credi-
BILE that periodical like Belfords Magazine
could be guilty of uttering such stupid lie.
Is the Age quite certain that this item did
not come from the Portland Argus or one of
the independent" papers of Massachusetts,
Anyone who knows anything about the
direct tax act must know that clause of
the bill provides especially against any part
of the money going to agents or attorneys.
And in the only case where an agent has
claimed anything he has been refused cent,
and the law of Congress backs up the state
in that refusal. The $357,000 which Maine
gets under the direct tax act is in the state
treasury, and no part of it has gone or will
60 to any agents or attorneys.

Mr.. PETER, the Alliance Senator, is giving

performance will not help the farmer bUt

farmer, like everybody else, has got to de-

prosperity. The government cannot help
him by printing notes, nor by issuing an un-
limited number of silver dollars. An equal
chance with other people is all he can rea-
sonably ask and all he can get in the long
run. Demagogues may, for the sake of their

The City Council tonight will take up the
important subject of appropriations for the
ensuing year. The rate of taxation depends
largely of course on the amount of money
appropriated. and If the latter goes up the
former must go up also, unless there has
been an increase in taxable property. We are
compelled to bear some additional burdens
this year over which the city has no control.
The state tax has been increased nearly
$4,000 in consequence of the new state valu-
alton. This Will tend Of course to increase
the tax rate. and the council should study
the appropriations over which it has control
to see If this increase cannot be offset by re
auctions in our strictly municipal expendi-
lures. The council should struggle hard to
avert an increase of taxation.

1t is a significant fact that in the bye-elec

but at this second trial all the candidates

highest and tao ne Az higlesb soio Az Lno nIst
trial. At the first trial in the recent election
In which Bismarck was a candidate, there
were four candidates, Bismarck receiving
the largest vote and the Socialist candidate
the next. At the second trial only Bismarck
and the Socialist ran and large part of the
strength of the other two candidates went to
the former. By force Of circumstances Bis
marck will enter Parliament as an opponent
of the ministry. His course there will be
watched with much interest. The relations
between him and the King are good deal
strained and his position in Parliament will
give him chance to strike at the policy of
the young monarch.

1t is reckoned that the Billion Congress means
per capita tax OF $I6o7 for every man, woman
ana child In the country. Farmers, and other
laboring men, bow do you enjoy that outlook?-
Eastern Argus.
If this statement is true, then it is true that
the appropriations of the preceding Demo-
cratic congress meant tax on every man,
woman and child In the country. More than
this part of the excess appropriations of the
last congress were for paying the bills which
that Democratic Congress left unpaid, for
paying for naval vessels which that Con-
gress authorized, for paying back to Maine
and other loyal states direct taxes which
had been unjustly assessed, for settling the
French spoliation claims, for which the gov
eminent had wrongfully withheld the money
for nearly century, and for fortifying the
coast of the nation in order that cities like
Portland may not be lat the mercy of every
little power that may be pleased to humili-
ate US. Does the Argus dare say that one of
these expenditures was not right and proper ?

The parochial and private schools are rec.
ognized by our statute to the extent that at
tendance on these schools will satisfy the
compulsory attendance clause of the statute
provided the instruction given in them is
equal" to that given in the public
schools OF the State. This word equal" is
rather vague, and of its meaning in this con-
nection there would be different opinions.
The legislature or the courts must be looked
to for an authoritative definition. The pro-
priety or improperly of letting an unused or
abandoned public school building for pri-
vate or parochial ochool is to be determined,
1t seems to US. largely by the character of
the school. II the school is fulfilling the
conditions OF the statute, that is, If 1t is fur
nishing instruction equal to that Of the pub
lie school there would be no improperly In
such action. IL, on the other hand, the
school were not fulfilling the conditions of
the statute, for municipality to furnish ita
building would seem like aiding In nullify-
Ing laws which 1t is is bound to respect and
obey. Therefore before a fair opinion of
the action OF the Lewiston city government
In letting an unused public school room for

of the school must be known. 1t must he
known what is taught, how it is taught, and
