Now for another year. Some OF US are
sleepy this morning because We Wdlche"
the ola year out. The grand old year
which we gave up so completely TO we
celebration Of Americas birthday mas uc
parted from us to join the procession OF
years which have brought Us hdpliHtss
and prosperity. IT may be doubtful
whether 1898 belongs in this procession OK
not but out of courtesy TO columbus
there will probably be no objection made
among the ghosts.
Now that we have made our New-lea
resolutions. It might be we'll 20 strengthen
them a little by a retrospective glance az
our last years resolutions. some OF ~
resolved to be economical ana 70 deny
ourselves the pleasure Of visiting the Eek
nosition and some of us kept this one per
force. but more of us mCrtgaged our com
fort for next year-there IS the first mis-
take. for. Of course, | mean this year-h
order 10 get the benefits Of the "educa-
ton" which was 20 be had IN the White
CITY. All. yesi that is the way we eN'
cuscd Oursolves-we didn't so Tor pleasure
but for instruction. But then. We s''
both. and. besides. we had numerous neH
gowns. which was not at all compatiD,
with our New-Year resolves.
II will be the same way this year We
garment-but then things are SC cheap
We are right on that point and II we
have the money why should we not buy
II will only make our subscription to the
poor larger if we do not, for II tradesmen
cannot sell their wares there is nothing
between them and the army OF poor
which has grown to such alarming d.
mansions.
If you are not cramped by the hard
times lend your aid to these who are and
help them 20 earn their living, and thus
give you something in return for what
you pay rather than become mere paupers
upon your charity.
New-Years calls have not gone entirely
out Of fashion. and in spite Of hard times
more than one charming lady will receive
to-day. With some 1t Will be rather an
informal day gown which is to be
worn on this occasion is shown above. il

question IL 70 answer H. To 90 70 would
violate the elementary principle that taxa
tion must be uniform. and II taxes cannot
be thus imposed directly. on what prin-
cipie can they be so imposed Indirectly
The yIciousncss OF the measure Is at
once seen az soon az what he says is Its
foundation-stonc is examined. He says
Impose tho tax upon the finished pro
duct" and exempt the processes ana
materials of industry. Hore is the
strangest mixture OF diverse things Tax
finished products alone, says MIR. VIII
son. and thus avoid the intermediate
taxes on its constituent elements. which
would. OF course, imply that he intended
10 tax the finished products Of Ameri-
cans But he proposes to DO no'hihs
OF the kind. He proposes to tax the
finished products" of foreigners alone
There is, therefore, no question In the
case OF processes and materials. III
Is the case of the cross-eyed man cut
ting hoop-poles. lie is looking at one
and cutting another. What, then, is the
substance OF the matter. He taxes for
eign finished products" which, Of course
enables American manufacturers 10 sell
their FINISHED products" for what they
cost IS made up Of raw materials plus
the tax he puts on the finished products
of foreigners. But the only Americans
whom he has benefited by this move are
the comparatively few Americans who
manufacture, while all the other Ameri-
cans are burdened TO the extent Of the
tax which IL added on the foreigners
FINISHED product" The English of this Is
that TIE American manufacturers are
given the benefit OF protective tariff
through burdens imposed on all other
Americans. And has he raised any rev.
enue? 1t is most questionable. Free raw
materials, with the tax that is added, viii
probably enable the New EnglanAer TO
undersell the foreigner, and shut him out
entirely.
Mr.. Wilson ought 10 be able 10 see
that there IS no sort OF difference
I'm principle between that protec-
tive-tariH Mckinley bin which he
says he was sent to Congress TO repeal
and the measure which he has explained.
Both impose the taxes Of the Government
in such way as to bring great benefits
to some Americans at the expense OF
other Americans, and that is all there
is TO say about either. Both ignore the
good old rule, the excellent plan that
all men should stand upon footing OF
equality before the laws. with punish
ments for none and favorifisms for
none, and that all the property that is
in the country. or that comes in through
the ports. should pay uniform rate OF
taxation according to its value. That is
Democracy, and that is what Mr.. Will
sons bill should aim at securing.

York, failed Sunday night TO ring out the
old and ring in the New Year. When

fate which II reads in the handwriting

The latest and most unmkstakable is the
amazing appointment as assistant district

as a lawyer. and who has gained notoriety
only by preaching socialism, apologizlng
for bomb-throwers. railing against the

The grocery store Of Matthias Bugino

caught fire yesterday morning at 2
o'clock, and an alarm was sounded from

Connells arri we'd promptly and two
streams were turned on the fire 1t
was found that three separate parts Of
the place were on fire, in the cellar. in
the front, and in the rear part OF the
house The firemen found an oil tank
filed with Kerosene oil in the cellar.
and carried it, at the instance of Chief
Ferber. to the middle Of the garden.
The tank was locked with n
large paddock. In "a short time the fire
was put ont. Again at o'clock an
other alarm was sounded and the fire
men hRstened to the same place and
found the fire this time in the upper
part of the house They also discovered
very strong odor of coal oil Chief
Ferbsr asserts that he could smell it \

he examined the oil tank which was
carried into the garden he found 1t
broken open and nearly one-hSlf the
oil gone. 1t is his opinion that Bugiuo
set fire to the premises. There

was extinguishsd aud the tiremen went
