power to make rates be now conferred upon
the commission
WHY SHOULD IT BE GIVEN?
But why? Let us look at the matter Sc
riously. What has occurred since 1887 to
make this proper legislation for Congress
to undertake? 1t was not then expedient
or practicable. Is it expedent or practi-
cable now? Have railway rates advanced
since 1887? Has extortion been committed?
Have we not the lowest rates in the world?
Have not bankruptcy and reorganization
been the almost universal experience of
railroad companies?
But, some one says when unjust discrimi-
nation is charged the commission should
have power TO say what reduction is re-
quired to overcome the discrimination, if its
existence be established. This power would
no doubt crafty the commission, but is
there any other valid reason for granting
it? The injured party has right of de-
ton, the same as for any other pecuniary
injury-even more, for he may elect be-
tween proceeding for damages or for re-
straint, and the commission may not De in
This question is of infinitely broader scope
than is conceived by those who treat it
as such a simple matter. There are two
ways in which railroads may be managed
One is the Bureaucratic method of countries

of territory and of traffic and rates are
named upon somebody's idea of what was
thought proper when the roads We're
opened. The other is the competition sys-

The Future.

The following from the pen of
George D. Prentice, is printed by
request:
SIT cannot be that earth is mans
only abiding place. It cannot be
that our life is a bubble cast up by
the ocean of eternity to float mo-
ment upon its waves and sink into
nothingness, Else, why is it the
high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple of
our hearts and forever wander IN
satisfied? Why is it that the rains
bow and the clouds come over Us
with beauty that is not of earth
and then pass off to leave US to
muse on their loveliness? Why is
it that the stars which hold their
festival around the midnight thrc ne
are set above the grasp of our linn
tied faculties, forever hooking US
with their unapproachable glory :?
And finally, why is it that the
brhIht forms of human beauty are
presented to our view and taken
from US, leaving the thousand
steams of affection to flow back in
an Alpine torrent upon our hearts :?
We are born. for a higher destiny
than that of earth. There is a
realm where the rainbow never
fades there is a land where the
stars are spread out before US like
islands that slumber upon the
ocean and where the forms that
now pass before US like visions shall
dwell in our presence forever"

COLLEGE GIRL GRADUATE.

Edward W. Box writes to the
college girl graduate in the July
Ladies Home journal. Whatever
the necessities, her desires or ambi-
tions, he says, "let her not forget
that first of all she was designed by
God to be a woman, to live her life
in true womanliness, SO that she
may be an inspiration, strength. a
blessing, not necessarily to world,
but, what is infinitely better, to
those within her immediate reach
whose lives are touched by hers.
Very few lives are free-free to go
and come, travel, read, study, write,
think, paint and sing at Will. III
the lives of most women these gifts
are an aside in life, as it were, an
underbreath. Most of us are beset
with loving calls of toll, care, re-
sponsibility and quiet duties, which
we must recognize, heed and obey.
We must love our mothers more
than our Greek. If the instinct of
daughter, sister, wife or mother
dies out of a collegebred woman,
even IN the course of most bril>
liant career, the world will forget to
love her; it will scorn her, and JUST
~. If she does not make her sur
roundings homelike wherever she is,
whether she be teacher, artist, mu-
stefan, writer, daughter at home, or
a mother in the household, and she
herself is not CHEEKY and loving,
dainty in dress, gentle in manner,
and beautiful in soul, as every true
woman ought to be, the world will
feel that the one thing needful is
lacking, vivid, tender womanliness,
for which no knowledge, however
proud, can ever compensate. 1t is
better for woman to fill a simple
human part lovingly, better to be
sympathetic in trouble, and to
whisper a comforting message into
but one grieving ear, than that she
should make q path to Egypt and
lecture to thousands on ancient
Thebes."

MORE BURDENS FOR THE POOR.

In none of the Republican
schemes for increasing the reve-
nues is there suggestion of re-
storing any of the repealed taxes
on wealth, says the New York
World, while new and higher
taxes are to be levied on clothing,
food and shelter, but no taxes on
luxuries, on accumulated wealth
or active capital!
This is the McKinleyite pro-
gramme. 1t is proposed to re-
store the barbarous and cruel tax
on wool, to increase the taxes on
woollens, to raise the rates on
crockery and glass, to reimpose
duties on lumber, eggs, potatoes,
onions, cabbages and hay, but to
continue the exemption of wealth
in every form.
In 1866 the internal taxes col
lected on manufactures, aside
from whiskey, beer and tobacco,
aggregated 1922, 100000. They
were all repealed.
Other taxes collected from
wealth in that year were: From
incomes, S61, 071, 932; from banks,
railroad companies, &C., SIS, :
279, 142; licenses, S19,O36,O97
gross receipts-from 2 1-2 to 3
per cent.-of publishers, tele-
graph, express and insurance
companies, steamboats,, ferries,
stage-coaches, theatres, operas,
circuses and museums, S10,092,-
7O7; legacies and SUGGESTIONS,
81, 170,97S; stamps, S15,044, 1913.
All those, one after another, were
abolished at the instigation of
wealth's lobby.
There were other small taxes,
like those on salaries of public
officials, on passports, &C., the
proceeds of which bring the total
of internal taxes repealed imme-
diately after the war up to $780,
This exemption of wealth left
the whole burden of the cost of
the Government upon consump-
tion-mainly of the common ne
cessaries of the people. And this
is where the party bossed by
Mark Hanna, with Mckinley as
its figure-head, deliberately pur-
poses to leave the burden.
If it shall do this, the history
of 1890 will repeat itself in the
elections of 1893.
