CHAPTER III.--FOUR SCOUN-
DRELS.

A few evenings after the events re-
corded in the last chapter Harry Ash
ton and Clarence Vane met at the st.
Nicholas Club and bored each other
for half an hour after dinner.
Il understand you are among those
who escaped" remarked Ashton, a
pale, blase man, younger than he
looked.
Yes" returned Vane. a strikingly
handsome blonde. and one Of the best
dressed men in the city. land you also
are to be congratulated. are you not:'
"Yes-I believe l did lose my head

how did they manage to drop every
thing at once? don't quite under

Neither do L. But they are said to
be penniless. Their aunt has bought
their house and will let them have a
little pocket money now and then"
Its really tough. Nice girls-and
not at all bad looking.
AS Vane had heard Ashton pro-
nounce the Marsdcns. in their days of
wealth the handsomest women New
York had ever seen. this faint praise
amused him. Gold adds vastly to a
woman's beauty in the eyes of some
men.
"What shall we do tonight" asked
Vane. slipping u liqueur.

To the Editor of the Globe.
The remarks of DR.. Abbott, presi-
dent board of school inspectors of
this city, as quoted by the st. Paul
GLOBE under date April 8, 1895, were
somewhat unfair. The secretary of
said board requested some work of this
department April 7, and the same is
now ready and lying in Mr.. Phillips
desk waiting the next meeting of the
common council to take action there
on. The present administration of the
law department has not yet been re-
quested to attend any meetings of the
school board, and no notice whatever
has been received to that effect. There
is direct communication with the
school board and the law department
of the city, and should the services
of this department be required it
would take but a moment to telephone.
when such services would be furnished
without delay. In this connection.
understand from Mr.. Angel, secretary
of said board, that the last time the
law department of the city was called
upon to act with said board was at
the time of the public school investi-
cation, some time the latter part of
last summer. This department merely
light before the public.

The golden wedding of Mr.. and Mrs.

tunate couple. Most of the immediate

having been born in 1924 in Langen-

There is that in the decision of the
supreme court in the income tax
eases that is OF far greater import
ance than the mere holding of the
law void as to incomes from real
estate and state and city bonds, the
former because they are derived
from land, and a tax on land is a
among the states, and the latter as
against public policy. There is a
distinct intimation that congress
cannot lay even direct taxes in or
binary times and under ordinary con-
ditions.
This is to be found in the sixth
paragraph of the syllabus, which
reads:
6. That the understanding and eX-
pectation at the time of the adoption
of the constitution was that direct
taxes would not be levied by the gen.
eral government except under pressure
of extraordinary eXigency, and such
has been practiced down to Aug. Is,
1884. If the power to do so is to be eX-
ercised as an ordinary and usual
means of supply, that fact furnishes
an additional reason for circumspec-
ton in disposing OF the present case.
In view of the growing impression
that a revenue derived from tax
on those things needed in the daily
lives of men for their sustenance or
comfort, things grouped under the
phrase 1.-The necessaries of life" is a
most unjust and unequal method of
taxation, making the capacity to
consume and not the wealth of the
citizen the measure of his taxation,
it is probable that not many years
will pass before congress will be
considering the substitution of some
more equitable method. 1t may be
deciding that the real estate and
other forms of wealth should be
made to contribute to the federal
support as they now do to that of
the states This will involve direct
taxation, that kind of taxation this
court says was understood and ex-
pected' to be resorted to only in an
emergency.
To be sure this is only an obiter
dictum, but the fact that the court
regarded it as connected with the
case sufficiently to warrant the opin-
ion is significant. It betrays the
protectionist bias discernible in the
whole opinion, and leads to the con-
clusion that should congress, in time
of peace, lay a direct tax, this court.
as now constituted, would hold it
void, as unwarranted by, not the
plain words Of the constitution, but
by the understanding and eXpecta-
ton of the parties to the framing
and adoption of the constitution. In
that event the country would have
fastened on it a system of taxation
that eXempts wealth and taxes the
man in proportion to what he eats
and wears and uses, unless the emer-
gency Of a war or some other calam-
ity should happen to create what the
court-not congress-would consider
an eXigency. If this is the opinion
of this court, then the sooner that
body is 'mended or ended the bet
ter for the country, because the peo-
pie will not long submit to a tax
system that leaves the accumuIa.

saries Of life of the rich and poor

SEEDING AND CROPS.

We have conversed with a number
of farmers lately, and we find that in
almost every case they are lessening,
their wheat acreage and going III for
corn, oats or other grain than wheat.
We believe this is wisdom; corn, hogs
and cattle are better products than
wheat any year, and instead of inipov-
erishing the land they build it up. :
