changes and for the correction of evils,
and to weigh all that can be said for or
against a proposed reform. Take the
voting reforms achieved for instance
in this country They have come and
have triumphed out of conviction of the
public mind of their value, and have in
vidual. They have grown into our
elective system naturally, not because
any one reformer has promoted them or
driven them in. They are the result of
necessity, of expanding public intelli
gence, and of the demand for guards to
human rights. AT no time of their sug-
gested Introduction were they offensive
10 the public ear. Some portion of the
people long rejected them, fearing IL
leave old channels for untried ones, but
at the same time it was a reticence OF
caution, not of animosity. Where there
is definite purpose, intelligent method,
patience and modesty with self-sacrifce
and untiring devotion. the reformer is
respected and rewarded by the com
mendations of his fellowmen. Selfish
ness, insincerity and self trumpeting
just as surely invoke public contempt.
If the American people were con-
yinced that they are taxed each year
one-f fourth their income or earnings, we
would expect them to rise in revolt and
TO stir an agitation that would bring
reform speedily. But here we have the
facts from herepublic of France proving
that in that country, which is so much
quoted to us as an example of pros
perity Of the people, and especially of
the middle and the producing classes,
the Frenchman is taxed in a measure
that in this country is not paralleled.
Recently, at the meeting of the Statis
teal Society of Paris, it was shown that
a well-to-do family is on the whole
taxed about one fourth its income.
Thus a moderately well-living family
was selectedand its budget of expenses
and income taken up and considered in
shown that in this group were father,
mCther, three sons from 13 to 10, two
daughters, 16 and II, and a female ser
want. In the year 1891 this family ex-
pended 20 700 francs. For it's house it
paid >, III francs, and of this 29.45 per
cent. was for taxes on the food of the
family the tax was 2O.65 per cent; on
heat and light, - per cent; on transpor-
tation, % per cent; on clothing, II per
cent; on entertainment, 63 per cent. On
14117 francs expenditure, the average
tax was % per cent. Upon expenditure
for repairs, doctors, education, domestic
service and wages, amounting to 6,355
francs, the tax was not computed. So
Of the income of the ordinary French
family goes to meet governmental de-
mands. But we suspect that there has
not been fairness in this report. 1t is
probable that the taxes so called in
clude not only the direct, but the taxes
paid by indirection in the way of
stamps, tariff licenses, etc. When it
comes to that, it would be discovered
probably that the American family pays
a very much heavier tax than most of
them suppose.

QUEEN SABE WAS DEAD.
But the American was not
Satisfied and Wanted
Maaana Killed too.

A traveller in Mexico tells
this story, told ON the Gale
Benito Juarez. 1t would almost
seem as it every word one hears
on the streets is either ''quien
sabe" (who knows) or "maha-
ma" tomorrow. The repeti-
ton OF these expressions be-
came so tiresome to certain
American newcomer that he
was almost driven to despair.
Standing on the Gale Juarez he
saw q funeral procession pass,
and BEING solicitous as to the
identity Of the corpse lie went
up to a red blanketed native
end asked in English;
"Who's dead}h
With a look Of unutterable
disgust and shrug of the
shoulders, he answered:
"Quien sabc!"
"Thank heaven" replied the
American Quien sabe is dead.
Now if they would only kill
that id old 'manana' all would
be WELL"

MEXICAN TROOPS TO AID
VANCE.

San Cristobal las Casas, Feb:
5.-News has been received
from the capital, from what is
accounted Most trustworthy
sources, that the Mexican troops
will, within the next ten days,
advance and take their position
in the territory which Mexico
has been claiming from Guate-
mala as her own, though it is
not yet known whether Mexico
will do this as an act of war or
whether it is, as rumored,
simply because an agreement
to that effect has been reached
between the two countries. The
correspondent inquired at mil
itary headquarters respecting
this report, but could obtain no
confirmation nor denial.

WANT RANGERS.
Citizens of Kinney County Ask
Protection From Border
Pilferers.

Austin, Tex, Feb. 8.-Rep-
resentative Martin has receiv-
ed and introduced a petition
from citizens, taxpayers and Of
ficials of Kinney county which
reads as follows:
We; the undersigned citizens
of Kinney county, respectfully
petition the Legislature now in
session to appropriate sufficient
funds for an increase of the
ranger force for the following
reasons:
1. Kinney county and other
counties bordering on the Rio
Grande have almost daily to
contend with pilfering bands
from Mexico, who steal all kinds
of live stock and drive it across
the Rio Grande into Mexico.
2. Since the presence Of the
rangers, protecting the border
Of Kinney county, the stealing
of our property has greatly
diminished.
8. The present force, though
consisting of very good men,
protecting the border of this
county, is insufficient to stop
the depredations entirely, hav-
ing too much country to protect
and no more men being avail
able to be ordered here.
4. An increase of the num-
bers of such, even as we now
have, will effectually stop all
stealing and therefore save the
state a great deal Of taxable
value and the citizens much
annoyance and loss ofproperty:
5. Between the mouths of
Sycamore and Tequesquite riy-
ers, all along the border of
Kinney county, the Rio Grande
at low water is fordable almost
everywhere.
6. There are four good fords
in the Rio Grande used for IL
Iicit purposes, fordable all the
time except at very high water,
/ winch 1OruS are uSeQ Dy ll.e
thieves to cross the stock stolen
from this and interior counties
safely into Mexico:
For the above. reasons we
petition the legislature that
enough men be employed as
rangers so the citizens of this
county may be enabled to get
a sufficient body of them to ef-
fectually protect us and our in
terests:
