a year. 1t is right that they should
pay a fair proportion O. this en-
larged expense. The common peo-S
pie of the West and South pay too
much already. They did not vote
for the Republican mortgages.
The money of the big incomes in
the Eastern centres put Benjamin
Harrison and the Fifty-frst Con-
gress in power. The big incomes
should help to pay the bills, es-
pecially when the poorer house
holds give up SO much of their
slender incomes to the private in.
terests of the protected classes. q
Glaring injustices in the opera
tion of Federal tax laws have in
spired income tax propositions
which boldly speak for coufscation.
Such propositions are the IN.
dividual property of crude an /
incautions minds. They cannot
become the platform of great
party whose object is the limita-
tion of taxes to necessary public
purposes.
A Democratic income tax cannot
60 further than to effect an equita-
BILE redistribution of taxes. 1t
would cease to be Democratic and
become something else the moment
it crossed that line.
A tariff tax affords all exemp-
tion for large incomes. An income
tax should specify limit of
exemption for small incomes.
The Ways and Means Committee
men are quoted as in. favor of a
$4,000 limit and heavier valua-
tion upon Incomes from fixed
investments than upon those
derived from active business. It's
estimated that 8. per cent tax
upon fair valuation under tnat
rule would, above all cost of coll
lection, produce enough revenue
to fully meet all current de-
ficiencies and all decreases caused
by tariff reduction.
In justice to the masses the rich
cannot be allowed to longer escape
a reasonable proportion of FederalF
taxation. The income tax will
come to stay.

At Antietam, just after the ar
tillery had been sharply engaged,
the Rockford (Virginia) battery
was Standing awaiting orders. Gen.
Lee rode by and stopped a moment.
A dirty-faced driver of about
seventeen said to him: general,
are you going to put us in again?"
Think of such a question from
such source, addressed to the
general of the army, especially
when that generals name was
Lee?
Eyes, my boy" the stately Off
Ger kindly answered, IL have to
put you in again. But what is
your name? Your face seems
familiar to me somehow"
Il don't wonder you didn't
know me, sir, I'm so dirty" laugh
ed the lad; But I'm Bob D
1t was the. generals youngest
son, whom be had thought safe at
the Virginia military institute.

The farmer, owning his own land,
who neglects to set out a few fruit
trees this winter, is not friend
VoTnIrusoTr7'sFr1srT1
ception is the man who has 2 va
riety of fruit trees already grow
ing. A few well selected apple
trees will keep a family in fruit
from the first day of June to the
first day of March. One can pick
up in the neighborhood few
dozen scions from good trees. By
planting apple seed in good, rich
soil, the trees will be ready for
grating after one years growth.
Any tanners boy can soon learn
to graft and bud. Seedlings will
give good orchard. The trees
that bear poor fruit can be grated.
Since the first of last June good
apples have brough ht at wholesale
from Is cents to $1.00 bushel In
this market. If you wish your
trees to grow off well and soon
come into bearing, select a good
variety and a good place. Dig
a hole two or three feet square and
about eighteen inches deep. After
breaking up the clay in the bot
tom, throw in rich dirt from the
surface, or from the woods until 1t
is about six inches deep. Then
put in your tree and fill IN with
rich earth. That will furnish the
roots with plant food for a year, or
longer. The tree will grow off
vigorously and pay well for the
trouble. Apples require a rich
deep soil. One good tree in the
right sort of place is worth a half
dozen measly, scabby trees on,land
too poor to sprout peas. 1t is as
easy to have good variety of fruit
as a poor one. Select the best. Be
sure to set out some trees this
winter.

When a timid young Tarheel
wishes to express himself to his
girl, be takes a piece of fat pine,
trims it in the shape Of capital I,
and passes 1t to his girl. That
means I pine for thee. If she re-
jects him, she strikes a match and
sets the splinter on fire. This
means, 1 make light ofyour pining,
If she likes him, she hands him a
lightwood knot, which means, pine
not. When tho boy goes to leave,
he gently puts his arm around the
girl, kisses her, and puts some soft
pitch on the end of her nose,
which means, ta(r) ta(r) till we
