With the promise Of greater profits. and
brides labor with the promise of high

Vote So that we can tax the public

point the author says:
The doctrine of privilege is in most
respects like the doctrine OF slavery.
The fundamental idea OF privilege is to
take the products of one mans labor
for the benefit Of another. That was
the ptiiposc of slavery. Like slavery,
privilege is e hereditary wrong that
can not be reformed, except by wiping
it out.

The chief merit OF Mr.. Seymour's
book is that he puts Justice higher
than policy, always asking and an
swering the question, What is right?
rather than, What is profitable to this
interest or that? He shows that we

True Charity.

When Mayor Pingree proposed TO al
leviate the suffering of the poor in De-
troit by dividing the unoccupie lands
about that city among them and sup
plying them with the implements and
means to cultivate the potato patch
es', as they were called, he was
laughed at. Mayor pinrree is not
afraid OF a laugh, even if it is at his
expense, and went right along with
his plan, which worked so well it was
promptly adopted by a score of other
cities. Buffalo is one of the towns
that adopted the Pingree plan this
year. 1t laid out SIS plots, containing
a5out one-third of an acre each,
bought implements, seed and other
necessary adjuncts to agriculture and
set the honest poor at work. The Sec
rotary of the association in charge
has just made a report which
shows that for every dollar in
vested five dollars will be returned.
The estimate includes %. 900 bushels of
potatoes; worth Sc. 900, and S., 600 worth
Of other vegetables. Other cities re.
port equally good returns, among
them Detroit. the original, Holedo,
New York and several cities in the
west.

there will be another. fall in a few
