Tax the MilliOnaircs.

Representative Holman, whose ideas
on economy in administering the gov
ernment are widely known, says nothing
would be more conducive to economy
than the imposition of an income tax
by con gress. Speaking on the subject
this week he said: "The possibilities
for wealth in the United States are be-
yond all calculation. They are en-
or..Ae,,s- Il .-a t.iaI 10 ii.'a ..e e. .i.a.,
in our public expense we would inaug-
urate an era of extravaganza in the
midst of which free institutions could
not live. Behind congress is the
wealthier class Of citizens. IL is TO their
interest that the expenditures of the
government should be lavish. They are
the gamers by building contracts, by
river and harbor contracts, and so on.
You see plenty of lobbies of rich men
or their representatives here at each
session of congress. You never see II
it, but there is not an evening that a
member of congress cannot dine at one
of the clubs in this city Washington.
The men who support these clubs are
not men who contribute their fair share
to the government. They are the peo-
pie who profit by the expenditure of
large sums of public money. That is
the strongest argument, l think, in
favor of the establishment of an income
tax. If we make heavy appropriations
now, the weight of them falls with the
greatest force on the poor. If the gov
ernment was supported by an income
tax, these same people who are here
urging us to spend money now, would
be here in the same force urging us
to economize. Their interests then
would be in economy" This argument
may be new to many but it is none the
less interesting on that account.

A Meeker Horse.

The Leadvllle Herald Democrat of
the 4th contains the following account
of trotting race which took place
there:
"a large and lively crowd gathered
at the Gentlemen's Driving park Sun
day afternoon to witness some of the
best races of the season. The program
was opened with trotting race be-
tween three young horses owned re-
spectively by Dode Swearingen. Dell
Chamberlain and Dell Hicks. The race
wss won in three straight heats by Dell
Hicks, and was one of the squarest
races ever run on the old track. 1t was
the first race that any of the horses ever
entered, and each mile was made in
about 3:01. 1t was beautiful test of
hOrsefiesh, and Hicks horse made line
showing. His movement is easy and
steady, and he made the first two heats
without break, passing the Others on
the first quarter and retaining his place
with ease. After the first two heats it
was evident to all that Hicks horse had
a walkaway and he was offered $500 to
throw the third heat by some one who
wanted to place money on it. He
scorned the offer, and coming before
the judges declared that he would not
throw the race for $500. "If my horse
can win he shall do it," he said, and Il
loud cheer went up for him. When
they were sent off on the last heat he
was behind, and in crowding the col. lie
broke and fell away to the rear. The
others passed to the front, Chamber
lain's sorrel in the lead, and for the first
ree-quarters held the place. On the
last turn Hicks caught up with sharp
clip and came in three lengths ahead
Men and women waved their hats and
handkerchiefs, and cheer after cheer
went up for horse and driver. The
crowd seemed to go wild as it rushed
around the little bay horse and almost
hugged him. Hicks horse was raised
by Adam Eckel, of Meeker, and is one
OF the handsomest animals in the city.
He is Belmont from the sire and York
shire from the dam. With proper train
ing and age he will turn mile in 2:30.'
The horse referred TO above was sired
by Young Belmont when the latter was
only two years old. AS THE HERALD
has remarked before on more than one
occasion, blood will tell.

Modern Morality.

1t is a fundamental maxim, in this
country at least, writes James W.
Clarke in Donahoe's Magazine, that all
men are and of right ought to be equal
before the law. Ii, therefore, we
are to applaud the suppression of
faro banks, policy shops, book max
ing, pool rooms, lotteries, newspaper
missing word contests, and all other OPP
portunities for petty speculation on the
part of persons with lean purses. by
what perversion of logic shall the great
national gambling den known as "Wall
Street" be justified? ? Is there in this
matter of gambling one law for the poor
and another for the rich? Is it true
that the risking OF q dollar by a
mechanic or a day labOrer in the Louis
lana wheel of fortune is immoral, while
the risking of millions in wheat corner
or a railroad stock, involving thousands
of innocent stockholders in ruin, is a
legitimate and perfectly moral trans
action? II this indeed be 80. modern
morality is Janus faced, and the rich
mans virtue is the poor mans vice.
Some advertisers seem to think that
it is only necessary to get up black
ugly striking cut, ignorant of the fact
that the desired end is gained,
not simply by attracting attention but,
by attracting favorable attention and by
making an impression that will be last

Myron w. Reed, the popular Denver
minister, hits at the roots of some of
the most conspicuous of existing evils
when he says: People go along in the
country buying and selling what does
not exist, betting this way or that way
on stock exchange and board of trade.
The price of the necessaries of life are
played with, forced up or down, to suit
lot of gamblers. Money is made
plenty or scarce, to suit one street in
New York and two in London. The
richest man in America was 2 railroad
wrecker. The land of the people, of
the nation is no longer in their poses

The Art ofLivingao6 years.

a. u !.
Mr.. William Kinnear does not
hesitate to say that it is possible for
q person to live two hundred years
if the formula of diet which he
prescribes is followed daily from
early youth. To prolong life the
foods containing the most destruc-
tive elements to life should be
avoided, and some substance which
will check the deposits or expel
them from the system should be
used. Mr.. Kinnear's prescription
is to ssavoid all foods rich in
earthly salts, using much fruit,
especially juicy, uncooked apples,
and to take daily two or three tum-
blersful of distilled water, with
about ten or fifteen drops of diluted
acid in each glassful." This acid
mixed with distilled water, has
been found to be one of the most
effective means of checking fbriln-
Gus and gelatinous deposits and
Fastening their expulsion f, I'm The

Origin of the Peach.

! 4 III y " Hss I.

Nothing is now more universally
accepted than the fact that + the e
peach is an improved variety OF.
the almond. The almond has q
thin shell around the stone, which
splits open and shows The stone;
when iattsure. This outer skin has; lesl
sEi simply come flesh IN the peach,
sso that it it is all that gives it its!
specific character. It seems now.
clear, from Investigation in the his.
tory Of ancient Babylon. that in.
their gardens, now nearly 1000
years ago, the peach was culti-,
waited then as it is now. 1t must
have been many years before this
that the peach was improved from
the almond, and this fact goes to
show the great antiquity OF the
fruit. Possibly gardening in some
respects, at least SO far as it relates
to many of our cultivated fruits,
was as far advanced six, eight, or
perhaps ten thousand years back
as it is to-day.
Phenicians, many thousands of
years ago, as is proved by the re-
cords, had in their gardens al
monds, apricots, bananas, citrons,
figs, grapes, olives, peaches, pome-
GRANTEES, and even sugarcane was
in extensive cultivation. Certainly,
this shows how very far advanced
these nations were in garden cul-
ture these many years ago.
