THE FOLLY OF TAX DODGERS.

1t is the snpremest folly for capital
lists to envade taxation in every pos
slble way, as they constantly are do
ing.
Have these men not read his
tory9
DO they not know what was the
immediate cause of the French
Rcvolution7 That frightfuI cat
astrophe would in all likelihood
never have occurred if the wealthy
classes of France had consented to
bear their just share of the public
burdens. In 1877 the "Asscmbly
Of Notables," was convokcd by tho
King of France, who appealed to
the nobility and clergy to come to
the assistance of the empty treasury,
but they refused all taxation, rely
ing on their alleged privileges. ,
Two years later the revolution
broke out, and four years there
after the skins Of these rich were
ut Mendon tanned into leather for
gloves for the "patriots. "
Our capitalists never seem to re
fleet that like causes bring on like
effects here. They have had supreme
power in this country for a full
century, with no nobility and clergy
to offset their authority, and so
they conclude they can go on doing
anything they please. But lot them
pause. The reason why the nine
teenth century has been SO tolerant
has been simply the remembrance
of Robespierre and his Reign of
Terror. These excesses will be
forgotten during the twentieth cen
tury.
Our capitalists fought the mild
income tax, passed by Congress,
though similar tax is cheerfully
paid by their comrades in Europe.
During our civil war they unblush-
ingly committed perjury on perjury
to escape their share of the war
taxes, and we all know that in the
same way for generation they
have lodged taxes on their enor
nous personal property in New
York City.
This lodging Of taxation is ex-
actly parallel to the "privileges,'
enjoyed by the nobility and clergy
of France before the revolution.
Our rich really ought to be gener
Gus; but at laast they should cease
their tax-dodging merely as mat
ter Of prudence, as something high
ly dangerous to life and limb is in
the near future.
This evasion of taxation by the
rich is not only imprudent but
contemplate.
For the taxes which they evade
are not merely legally but morally
due from them to society. They
are their "just' share of the public
burdens.
It is our rich men who, under our
present system, in justice, ought
to pay taxes cheerfully. Society
has done everything for them, and
they refuse to pay back tithe to
society. Is not this contemplate.
We have all heard the story Of
the poor man who prayed to God
to give him million, and promised
in return to give half Of it "to His
glory" Society has done this
very thing for our rich men.
For it is the present established
social, political and economic ma
chinery, exclusively, that has en-
abled these men to acquire their
wealth. They and they alone do take
advantage and can take advantage
of this costly, intricate and complex
machinery. Our rich men have
proved our true "paupers,' they
never have become tired of impor-
tuning the Government for privi-
leges, and very often for pecuniary
assistance, and doing nothing in
return.-N. Y. Journal.

DIES MONIES, Iowa,
May Is, 1899.
There was more than the usual
amount of cool and cloudy weather
during the past week, and the week
closed with a heavy storm which
brought excessive moisture in portions
of the central and southern sections.
Iowa City reported 4.35 inches for the
seven days ending Monday a. M, and
Cedar Rapids POI inches, which will
cause some delay in field work.
Conditions were generally favorable,
however, during most of the week, and
the time has been we'll improved in
blowing and planting operations. In
all districts considerable progress has
been made in planting corn, with the
soil in good filth. This work is prob
ably more advanced in the northern and
central districts than in the southeast
ern part of the state, where there has
been an excess of moisture.
Spring wheat, oats and barley have
made fine advancement, and the week
has been very favorable for grass.
But little damage resulted from frost
on the 18th. Fruit trees, vines and Der
ries that escaped destruction during
the winter give promise of good crops
