DEMOCRACY is A BURDEN
A Continuance of the List of Tax.Pay-
ers of Indianapolis Given.
The Names of Those Whose Holdings in 1890
and 1891 We're Identical 6iven-The Poor
Man Oppressed by Democracy.

The list of tax-pay ers of the city of In
dianapolis is continued below. All names
are given, whether the taxes have been
increased or decreased. The names are
given of all whose holdings for 1890 and
1891 were identical. Corporations are
omitted. Names are not taken where i'm
provements have been made or removed
during the year. or where the sale or pur-
chase of land has changed the holding in
any respect Readers ore requested to
compare their tax receipts with the list.
and report any inaccuracies to the Journal
for correction.
The taxes of Jacob and Charles Becker
were enormously increased; bnt the list
does the tax authorities q slight injustice,
as in the case of Charles Becker piece of
property On which the taxes were $500, is
included in the taxes for 1891. which was
taxed in another name for 1890. The in
crease really was from $50. 46 to 81, 1S9 81.
enough In all reason. The list still shows
the heaviest percentage of increase to be
on the poor. who really ought not to have
any Right to own property at all. according
to Mr.. Taggart's theory, and must be dis
couraged in every way by disproportion-
ately increasing their taxes. The prejudice
against certain names already noted Is still
apparent AS witness the taxes of Frederick
Beinke. Sophia Belck, Annie Beletzki
August BeDnerscheidt. VIM. Benz. George
Benzei. Emma Bergner, Francis BergmanD,

young married woman In this CITY, who

She was pretty well known TO the officers

that that was enough TO secure it. Reach

BARON HIRsCHS GREAT PLAN.
Proposing to Remove All the Jews from
Russia at His Own Expense.

Illustrated American.
In some respects. Baron Hirsch's PROPOSE
ton To remove all OF his co-religionists from
Russia and transplant them to lands where
they would be secure from persecution on
account of their faith and their
race, 10 the greatest undertaking
projected by , man. 1t can be com com
Guilty of undertaking with such myths as
the building of the Tower OF Babel. Yet so
wonderful has been the development of
mans methods of transportation and pow
or of organization that there is no reason
TO suppose the project impossi Bile of real
iZatlon under favorable conditions. So far
as the mere question of transportation ie
concerned. the late Thomas Cook may be
said to have solved 1t. If the migration
were extended over period of years under
the system perfected by him. it could he
carried on SO smoothly as to be almost i'm
perceptible.
liz has been estimated that one-hal of
the Hebrew race is living in the dominIons
of the Gar. The number of individuals
has been put at three and q half millions,
which 10 probably greater than that of any
of the barbarian peoples who descended
from their plains and forests upon the
Roman empire at the period of it's decline.
1t would be the greatest migration of
which we have kDowledge. To be success
full 1t would be necessary that it
should not intlct hardship or suffering
eIther upon the emIgrants themselves

operation would resemble greatly the trans
planting of an entire forest. Each lndlvid-
ual family must be taken up from tho soil
In which 1t is now rooted. transported
with extreme solicitude, and replanted in
soil adapted to It's needs. After the trans
fer shall have been accomplished il would
still be necessary to watch each individual
family to see that 1t takes root in it's new
home. The mere expense. which Baron
HIrsch is willing TO assume. would be stu
pendous, and the mental labor would be
greater.
The migration would be q radical solu-
ton of the terrible problem of the Jews
in Russia could it be accom- plished sue
cessfully, and it would make Baron Hirsch

AS the time draws near for holding the
sentorial convention the question of who
shall be the nominee is being thoughtfully
considered. Shiawassee county is entitled
to the candidate this year. We have heard
several names mentioned for the position,
but sentiment in all parts of the county
seems to be that Hon. VIM. M. Fitzpatrick,
of Owosso, should be nominated. Mr.. Kill
patrick is not candidate for the position,
but we believe If he is selected he will ac-
cept the honor. That he would be strong
candidate admits of no doubt; his extended
acquaintance in both counties, his ability,
his former legislative experience and his
popularity at home would all unite to make
him successful candidate. The republic
cans will make no mistake If they nominate

Here is quotation from the Confederate
constitution that you may or may not have
read before:
Congress shall have power to lay and
collect taxes, duties and excise for revenue
only but no duties or taxes on inn
portations from foreign nations shall be laid
to promote or foster any branch of industry"
And then perhaps there may be found
some similarity to the above in the demo-
cratic national platform of 1892:

ciple of the democratic party that the Fede-
raj government has no constitutional pow
