TOO DEEP FOR TOM.
Cannot Believe in the Doctrine OF
Free Raw Materials.

Free Raw Materials.
The new plan also involves a new
method to encourage manufacturers by
giving them what are called free raw
materials" so that what goes into the
mill pays no taxes, and what goes into
consumption pays all the taxes. The
manufacturers have no taxes on what
they buy, and the people the equivalent
OF taxes on all they purchase. 1t un-
fortunately happens also that free raw
material" is an elastic term, and what
is one mans free raw material is another
mans finished product. These so-caIled
free raw materials, free wool, free coal
and free iron, are not put or the free
list with any reference, direct or in
direct, to raising revenue. They are
placed there to encourage manufact-

called to the latter, Boy, save yourselfw
The boy few on deck, jumped overheard,
and hardly had he done SO when a ter
rife explosion occurred. Van Speijk had
set fire TO the ships powder and saved
the honor of himself and his country
flag by blowing up friend and foe alike.
Besides large number of Belgians, four
teen of his own men persisted, and only
five, including the boy, were saved.
After some time fragments of the hero s
body We're found and honored with a
splendid public burial in the new church
at Amsterdam, where a tomb was erected
in Van Speiik's honor, while a monument
in the civil orphan asylum, where he had
been brought up, keeps his memory for
ever green with the orphan boys, who
never grow tired of hearing and telling
his story.
At the time of the gallant deed a new
sloop-of-war was building which received
the name of Van Speiik. while a royal de-
cree ordered that for all time to come
Dutch man-of-war should bear the name
of the gallant young lieutenant.
The deed created the widest enthu-
siaSm throughout the country. Orators,
poets historians and painters united in
lmmOrtalizing the memory of the man,
who, like a second Claassen, hurled with
him into death the enemy he could not
conquer. Van Speijk's nearest relatives
received pensions, while the five sailors
who had survived were also pensioned.
