1t Is marvellous how many different COM
plants and diseases it will cure. 1t was de-
vised over So years ago by old fashioned,
noble hearted physician. for the good of his
fellow men, to allay pain and cure infar-
nation both internal and external. 1t has
stood on its own intrinsic merit, and parents
transmit the knowledge of its worth to their
children as valuable inheritance. The de-
maad for it has steadily increased. 1t has
probably saved more lives and afforded more
relief to the suffering than any other remedy.
All who use 1t are amazed at its wonderful
power and are loud in its praise ever after.
Be not afraid to trust what time has endorsed.

TAXATION IN AUSTRALIA.

Australia is still newer land than
America, and has still larger proper
ton Of men who want to try every new
idea that is suggested, without reference
to the teachings Of experience as to the
working Of the idea, or those similar to
it, in the past. OF course, taxation is a
burning question there as everywhere in
the world, and the independent prov
inces into which the country is divided
allows the trying of many different
schemes. With all these they seem as
far off as anybody in securing the great
object of "plucking the goose without
making her Scream" as somebody has
described as the ideal system of taxa
ton.
In Victoria they have been trying
the land tax on a graduated scale, in
creasing with the number of acres
owned by one man, with the avowed in
tention of breaking up the large estates.
Everyone now admits that this is fail
ure, but the reasons are not given.
In South Australia the Henry-Geor-
CITES have full swing, and the " Single
Tax 3" is seen there in its perfection.
The burden of the taxation is on land,
and the tax is the same, whether it is
city property, worth $500 front foot,
good farming land, worth 500 an acre,
or poor grazing land, worth So Or less
an acre.
In other Provinces the single-tax idea
is modified, so as to take cognizance of
the varying value of the land. In most
Of the Provinces they have progressive
income taxes, beginning with an income
which exceeds $1,000 a year, and be-
coming heavier as the income increases
This principle is also applied to legacy
duties, and it is proposed to make it the
principle of all kinds of taxation.
In New Zealand small holdings of
land are taxed one-half mill on the dol
lar of the assessed valuations, and this
then increases in regular ratio until an
estate worth over 81 100000 pays seven |
mills on the dollar.

SINCE the passage of the Tariff Bill
the receipts of the New York Custom
House have been nearly 100000 a
day. Estimating that the duties aver
age % per cent. Of the value of the i'm
ports, this means that at least 100000
day are going out of the country for
materials and labor which should be
kept at home and paid TO our own
people, who can find no sale for the
products and no work to which they can
lay their hands.

his work with dispatch sent all over
the country that "dissension is certain
in the GAR. National Encampment ut
Pittsburg, as strong element is deter
mined to put through resolutions de-
cidedly indorsing the pension policy of
the present Administration. We have
heard stuff like this before, but never
from anybody who was in the army or
the GAR. We are neither prophet
nor the son of a prophet, but we viii
make prediction that man can bet
81 900 to a cent upon, and agree to give
back the cent if he wins, and that is
that the only dissenting voice to the
resolutions adopted at Pittsburg will be
on the ground that they are not severe
enough.

The new tariff bill will bear with
particular hardship upon the farmers of
Nebraska, who have been hoping to find
sugar beets much more profitable than
corn or wheat. They were just fairly
working into the sugar beet business,
when those who !" wanted change"
got their work in. Two factories were
started In the State, one at Grand Island,
and the other at Norfolk. Both have
been doing a good, safe business, and it
was the intention to build several more.
the farmers around Norfolk planted
800 acres in beets the first year the fac
tory was open, and received SIS a ton
for their crop. This paid so well that
last year they planted 900 acres, and
this year 4,200. The factory there paid
out last year $4,000 in wages during the
70 days that it was running; s126,00O
for beets, 100000 for freight, etc. The
factory at Grand Island did better, prob
ably. This year the market is glutted
with free sugar, rushed in before the
passage of the bill, the bounty is abol-
ished, and the factories, it is feared. will
have to close.

have to clost

WHEN any windy politician comes
blathering around about the Senate hav-
ing defeated the will of the people, %
set him down as a purposeful and IRENE
diable liar. The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
cares as little for the Senate as it does
for the House of Representatives. It is
merely very tired of the sham hypocrisy
of this whole business Every man who
knows anything about public affairs,
knows as well as he does the day of the
month, that the Tariff Bill was regular
deal, in which the House was as deep in
the mud as the Senate was in the mire.
Never for a moment did the majority in
the House intend that any other bill
than the Senate's should pass. All the
yociferation to the contrary is merely
rant to throw dust in the peoples eyes
Leading Representatives secretly adj
vised, concurred in, and urged every
amendment which the Senate adopted.
Assertions to the coitfary are the same
kind of lying, az the "No deserving
pensioner need ,feara' Repeal the
tax on State banks" and similar stuff
with which the people have been gulled.

A SUCCESSFUL ADMINISTRATION.

With the holding of the National
Encampment next week Commander
in-Chief Adams's term of Office will
close, and he will return to the ranks of
the privates." He will retire followed
by the admiration and love of every
comrade in our glorious Order. He has
been Commander-in-C Chief of whom we
could all feel justly proud. He was an
ideal volunteer soldier, with a record
unsurpassed by that of any man in the
service. He had experienced to the full
every phase of a soldiers career-years
of the hardest marching, working and
fighting, terrible wounds, imprisonment,
and all except death that could come
to a man fighting the battles of his
country. lie has strong, magnetic
personality, and everywhere he went he
produced the happiest impression upon
the comrades and the strangers without
the gates of the Order. 1t is sufficient
praise for him to say that we never had
a better Commander-in-C Chief, and that
he is entirely worthy of a place in the
front rank among the strong, capable
comrades who have led the Grand Army
of the Republic since its organization.
There is absolutely nothing in his year
Of administration which we have to re-
gret, or even wish otherwise, but every
thing to commend and praise.

inridges friends base themselves upon
his rebel service, his oratorical briIliancy,
that intellectually he is credit to the
State, that he is no worse than other
men, has " simply been found out" and
that he is the victim of the capitalistic
press of the big cities" which is interior
ing intolerably in the domestic concerns
Of the District 1t looks as if it would
be impossible for any Democrat to be

Counties Of Bourbon, Fayette, Franklin,

region, and has a population of only

the Republican candidate and 730 for

ApJUTANT- GENERAL MEEcH.

Comrade Jas. f. Mech, who has
brilliantly discharged the duties Of Adj
jutant- General of the Grand Army of
the Republic during the past year, has
shown the Order generally what Com
mander-in-C Chief Adams knew of him
particularly when he selected him, out
of number of very capable comrades,
for that responsible position. He has
displayed the highest business talents,
and made an Adjutant-G General certainly
second TO none in the history of the
Grand Army of the Potomac or any
other Order. 1t has been far more
than mere business with him; it has
been labor of love-something to be
done for the good of his comrades, and
so great business capacity was supple
mented by warm zeal, and the result
was brilliant success.
