A Youthful Pessiniist.

Any boy or girl who doesn't know
what a pessimist is should be sure to
read the following:
Jeremiah, who is twelve years old, is
already confirmed pessimist. Among
the things he continually grumbles
about are his lead pencils, which never
have points, and to sharpen which he
always has to borrow knife OF some
schoolmate.
"Why don't you have a knife of your
own. Jerry?' one Of the boys asked. Z
"Got no pocket to put it in,' Jerry
answered, mournfully.
sThen why don't you have a pocket,
nersisted his schOOlmate.
IF had one it would have hole in
it,
"Well, even then you wouldn't be
any worse off than you are now.
.H'm! Yes, should. If I had peck
ct and a hole in 1t, I'd never have any
thing to lose through it,"
Jerry sighed deeply and went on
whiting his pencil with the dull blade
of the other boys knife.

The tru,3 is that this very question
OF rising w6ges is what makes q good
many men free traders. People with
nxed incomes think that anything which
raises wages is inimical to them, and
manufacturers who are in foreign mar
kets are naturally anxious to have wages
on the foreign standard. confess to
you that this question of wages is to
me the vital question. To ensure our
Growth in civilization and wealth, we
must not only have wages as high as

market" he said, 'by leaving it to the
steady increase of wages that the figures
OF the Aldrich report show so conclusive
~, and which have received the sanction
OF the members from New York, the sec

pose to lower wages and SO lessen the
market, and then divide that market with
somebody else, and all for the chance of
getting the markets of the world.
"TO add to the existing possibilities OF
the contention, the orators on the other
side say they are going to maintain
wages. How can that be possible. All
things sell at the cost of production. Il

stilled at the polls by the Republican

legislators surrendered themselves, body

The speaker declared that the gentleman

hundreds of years, which had sought to

Fnvors an Income Tax.
Mr.. Crisp said that for twenty-five years
the Democratic party had been trying to
if given power it would reduce the bur-
dens of taxation. The people had accept
power. This tariff was redemption Of
these pledges to the people. (Applause.)
1t was not q perfect bill, but it was
step in the right direction. In referring
to various ; features Of the bill he spoke
long and loud applause from the strong
income tax element in the house.
He cited a! speech of Senator Sherman's
twenty years ago to the effect that . tax
which fell heaviest on consumption and
did not bear heavily on the wealth and
income of the country, was intrinsically
wrong. Mr.. Crisp supported the income

cit is evident that there is no ground
modern men, that this bill, bad as it is,
could be q resting place where our manu-
featuring and productive industries, such
as may survive, can re-establish them
selves and have a sure foundation for
the future, free from party pickering
and party strife. Hence, also there can
ously raised that this bill should be
passed at once because uncertainty is
worse than any bill can possibly be.
Were this bill to pass both branches to-
day uncertainty would reign just the
same. So utterly undisputed and so dis
tinctly visible to every human being in
this audience has been our growth and
progress, that whatever the future in
tlustrial system of this country may be,
the past system is q splendid monu-
ment to that series of successful states
men who found the country bankrupt
and distracted. and left it first on the
list of nations"
Mr.. Reed here quoted at length from
English authorities, showing the strength
of their confidence in the prosperity of
this country. "The quotations are also
reminders for you. Mr.. Speaker. and all
who hear know that an American Who
has been long enough here to know his
opportunities has found the best place
for wages in the world. Is there any
example of any nation of the world, sit
uated as ours, which has taken the steps
to which we are invited? Some gentle
men, perhaps, are Fastening to say that
England affords US the needed example,
that we have but to turn to her history
and find oil we need as example, just
as in the statement of her political econo-
mists we shall find all that is necessary
for guidance and instruction. Mr.. Speak
