Here they will be at disadvantage.
Those vino have been more favored will
stride past them and rise to positions of
greater trust and emolument, while
they will remain stationary or be en-
tirely crowded out by the ceaseless rush
and crush of activity. and eventually,
IT they do not graduate into careers Of
crime, they will become more or less de-
pendent upon the public bounty. Their
lack of education will be a constant
drag upon them, drawing them lower
and lower in the social scale.
But they alone will not suffer. The
community at large will feel the weight
of their ignorance. They will be the dupes
of shreWd and designing politicians.
Their votes will be purchasable. and
a constant temptation to political pros
titution. In times of unusual agitation
they will fall an easy prey to demagogic
influence. They will be impractical. I'M
reasoning brawlers, swayed by passion
rather than reason, the tools of unscru
pulous men--the very antithesis of think
ing, Self-reSpecting, self-reliant Ameri-
lean citizens.
1t Is a costly work to provide for the
educations of the children of the pres
ent generation, but it will be far more
costly to permit them to grow up in
ignorance. Nor must it be permitted.
All necessary means mist be employed
to give every child in st. Paul the ad-
vantages of common school education.
1t will be money we'll Invested, for it
will bear fruit in after years the benefit
of which cannot be overeStimated.

through its national administration is
pledged to a reform of the tariff by the
elimination OF the principle of protec-
ton for protection itself and the estab-
lishment OF that form of taxation for
the production of the requisite revenue
for the support of the government.
owing to the existing financial strin-
gency, general depression of business
and the large falling off of receipts re-
sulting therefrom. the ways and means
committee of the house of representa-
tlves, upon which in the party organi-
cation is devolyed the duty of formu-
lating bill to carry out the pledge of
the party in this respect, finds itself
confronted with very difficult prob
lem.
This problem is how to frame a bill,
strictly in the line of taxation for rev.
enue simply, that shall bear equally and
Justly upon all citizens, and without
imposing added burdens upon any par
tlcuiar class or industry, while at the
same time producing sufficient revenue
for the support of the government
Now, one of the very largest drafts
upon the treasury of the government is
that Tor the payment of pensions. This
obligation, though incurred in cause
ana Tor purpose uncontemplated by
sacred and binding upon every citizen.
10 meet the large expenditures nee
essary to conduct to a successful
issue the great struggle i'll which this
obligation was Incurred, special meas
ureS OF taxation were reSorted to. One
of these was an income tax, and it ap-
pears to me that resort to this mode of
taxation is more just and proper way
IN which to meet this special, but sacred,
obligation.
The imposition of this tax so that,
while raising sufficient revenue for
pension purposes, it should bear equally
and Justly upon the citizen, would prob
ably be attended with some difficulty,
but where there is will there is a way.
The census statistics and real and
personal tax statistics of the states fur
nish reasonably reliable data upon
which to base the rate of the tax. The
bill Imposing the tan could be drawn to
give authority to the secretary of the
treasury to revise the rate of tax every
four or five years to meet the required
payments, While to meet any possible
deficiency, particularly during the eX-
detrimental period, special appropria-
ton could De made for that purpose,
the surplus remaining at the end of
each fiscal year to be covered back into
the treasury.
Such plan as this, while manifestly
fair, would, it appears to me, greatly
simplify matters In placing the whole
subject of general taxation and reVe-
nue. Just where the founders of the
government intended it should be.

FARM PRODUCTS AND SILVER

We gave recently the demonstration,
made by Labor Commissioner Carroll
ID. Wright. that since 1910 the prices of
the articles workingmen consume have
decreased. while their wages have
steadily risen. We have now an oppor-
tunity to note the comparative trend of
the prices of farm products since 1873,
and those of the manufactures which
form the larger part of, or affect the.
prices of, the purchases of farmers, in
the tables prepared by Senator Mills.
and incorporated in his able and eX-
haustive speech OH the repeal bill. Such
statement is the more valuable just
now because, unlike the wage-earners,
so many farmers are deluded by the
claim OF the mine owners that the fall
III prices Of their farm produce and of
silver is not coincident, but has the
relation of cause and effect; that
produce has fallen in value because
silver has. If this is fact, we cannot
blame the farmers for seeking to have
the operation reversed. They are but
human, and have no more or less
selhShneSs tnan the miners of silver or
'Ho iudll ul dcluTeTS OIL our protected
wares.
The first table groups in columns the
price of silver in each year from 1878 to
1891; the gold value of the silver dollar,
and, under the head of ARTICLES That
Farmers SELL" their leading products.
w ltnout reproducing the figures, we
give the summary, which SHOWS that
silver has decreased &c per cent, or gold
has Increased that amount; cotton has
fallen 80, corn &, wheat 80. bacon and
hams IA, lard 25, pork "A, beef 81. butter
80, cheese 81 and tobacco 10 per cent.
The next table groups ARTICLES That
Farmers Buy" Since 1878 these art-
cles have decreased in price by the fol-
lowing percentages; Refined sugar so,
cut nails 81, bar iron 81, steel rails 70,
Rio coffee IL, tea 49, sheeting 4S, drilling

cloth 56, quinine 50, goblets 70. window
glass 80, undershirts SO, ginghams "a,
carpets So, molasses So, and freightage
has fallen per ton per mile 81. The av-
erage reduction in farm products was
26.1; in articles bought, 55.4.
To present these results in form
more easily grasped, let us take guam
tity of one of the products of the farm
and tabulate its purchasing power in
1878 and in 1881.
