An individual by the name Of H. c.
Taylor, purpOrting to come from
Little Falls, and claiming to be a
printer but in reality nothing but a
tramp. dropped in upon our fore
man, Mr.. Peterson, last Friday after
noon with h tale of woe as long as
your arm. begging for something to
eat. This was furnished him and
lodging besides with tht understand
ing that he should paw for it in work
the next day, but as yet he has
failed to put In appearance. We
have always made it point to lend
a helping hand to those who are in
need, but when our generosity is
abused and mistreated in such a
shameful manner, 1t ia time to call a
halt, and woe be On to the next
tramp that comes. Other papers
take note and send this Individual
along empty and thus confer favor
upon the printing fraternity

Within a few years our navy
will rank second only to that of
England. If this means anything
it means that our merchantservice
will move up ultimately to the
same place. Safety and dignity
will be given to our trading ships
by the presence in all waters OF
government vessels. Capital will
seek investment in shipyards and
in ships, and foreign governments
will follow the lead of Russia by
having their warships constructed
here. This may seem roseate
view to take of the situation, but
it is one amply borne out by the
Observation-Disclosures Inquirer.

PAYING FOR THE WAR.

There is one yirture in the rev.

in conference between the two
houses of congress, and that is,
as has been pointed out by writ

es will be brought home directly
to those who pay them. We
doubt if the price of beer will be
any higher to the consumer on &C.
count Of the increased tax, but
probably the quantity Of beer IL q
glass will be smaller. The price
of tea also will be increased, and
every time citizen draws check
or takes a receipt or executes a
conveyance or mortgage his at
tention will be called to the fact
that he is helping to support the
government. These taxes are
annoying, of course, but they are
necessary, and under the present
conditions they are very cheer.
fully borne. But all taxes, at all
times, ought to be thus brought
home to the taxpayer; in other
words, the taxpayer ought al
ways to know just what the gov.
is exacting of him.
Then he will be in a position to
criticise tax bills intel]igently,
and his representatives will be
careful how they lay imposts up.
