CHILDREN IN LIEU or TINES.

Now that military service has been rendered
of Continental Europe, the various Governments
concerned have become alive to the fact that
every male child born constitutes future re-
cruit for the army, and so keen is the competition
among the Powers 10 possess the largest number
OF soldiers that their legislatures and paramcntS
are being called upon TO dcD with measures
destined 10 foster and encourage the growth OF
large families. The French Chambers have before
them bill for the imposition of a heavy tax
bachelors, with the object of discouraging
ccbacy. willie the Prlssian Landtag is at present
engaged in the discussion or a project presented
by Emperor William for the assessment OF the
income, or class. tax prop0rtlonatcly To the size
of the family. The young monarch recommends
that certain deduction be allowed for each
child OF persons whose incomes amount 10 less
than 5000 marks, and in this manner families
of half dozen children would prove sufficient
entirely to exempt the parents from any payment
Of the income tax.
The relief thereby afforded TO the masses OF
the people renders necessary, of course. CORE

The latter have until now enjoyed peculiar
privileges with regard 10 the income tax. the

SavpIE or DEMOCRATIC CRITICISM.

1t is discouraging to learn that another APP

still more discoulaging to read in Judge La

for 1.-THE Judge having no discretion-but that
an unlimited number of future applications and
appeals may be made under one section OF the
statutes as they stand. The practical effect OF
this section is TO nulify the State laws which
provide for the execution of mdrderers. The
duty Of Congress to amend the law in this re
spect is accordingly too plain to need argument.
1t is duty whose performance is demanded

Fhmsy indeed are the allegations made by
the seven Democrats who seek the seats to
which seven Republican Assembymen were
rightfulIy chosen by majority of the voters
in their respective districts. There are some
vague charges of fraud together with charges
that in one case polling place was too small
and in another more than 800 voters voted in
a district OF course, such charges will not
bear examination, but the Democratic con-
spirators will not hesitate on that account, nor

Porcupine's description or Christ's
garb is rather incongruous- Says he:
"He was dressed in white coat, with
stripes The rest of his dress was a
white mans, except that he wore moe
casins.
By this time it was dark, and by the
light of the camp fires Christ began to
dance in the slow, rhythmic style Of the
Indian. The others all joined the dance,
Christ singing as an accompaniment.
Late into the night they danced until
Christ told them they had danced
enough. Porcupine had plenty Of op-
portunity of watching the savior. He
had heard that he had been crucifed, so
looked carefully for the scars left by the
nails. There was one on his face and
another on his wrist, but his feet were
not visible.
@He seemed to be the man, remarked
Porcupine.
Two days afterward Christ talked to
them all day. He told them what he
wanted them to do, and explained what he
himself would do to aid them. He asked
them to remain at peace with the white
men. They must prepare for their
coming deliverance and spread the news
as far and as wide as possible.
The deliYerance is to come about in
this wise: Some time during the com
ing winter the messiah will come in all
his majesty. With Him will come all
