REPUBLICAN papers are now turn
ing their attention and what wit they
have toward making filings at the par
tisan" school histories that the text

our children TO study during the next
five years. AS an example OF this par
tisanship which is being injected into
the history business, We may say that
for writing the Kansas addendum,
Prof. E. B Smith, of Great Bend who
four years ago, was a candidate for
State superintendent in the republi-
can convention, and still a republican,
was selected. He declined on account Of
poor health and the job was then
given to Noble Prentis, the celebrated

remarkable populist. The main text
Of the history is THE Model School

used in the Hutchinson city schools
until two years ago.

was largely because his silver ideas
were not deep enough, that he failed

CONSERVATION OF WEALTH

|
Thomas e. Sherman, one of Brook
lyn's millionaire lawyers, wrote an ar
ticle recently for the Forum on the
Concentration of Wealth in this
Country" Tie there shows that 40.
900 people own more than one half of
the wealth OF this country. and that
One-seven ieth OF the people own over
two-thirds of the wealth. He con-
cludes thus:
10 sum up, l adhere to the opinion
that in 1889, more than half of all
American wealth was owned by less
than $4,000 persons, and that the
number of these persons grows smaller
every year, But | CANNOT dismiss this
subject without renewing the protest
which have always made, that the
schemes which find most favor for
checking this growing concentration
Of wealth are entirely delusive and
would, if carried out, actually agra.
Vate it.
There is one tremendous Cause con-
stantly at work to cure which practi-
cally nothing is done. The whole
American system of taxation, national
and local, taxes the poor ten times as
heavily as the rich. And every change
in taxation which finds favor among
the poor, especially among small
farmers, tends to make their burdens
greater and those of the rich smaller.
Tariff taxes, whether for revenue or
protection, excise taxes and taxes on
personal properly are all the most
rffectual devices for robbing the poor
for the profit of the rich that human
Ingenuity could devise"
