refuge in the body of the witch, who then might
be discovered BY an unfortunate chance an ola OLD

Finally she taken to the county poorhouse,

sometimes said by opponents Of rail-
road naturalization that private ems
terprse IL needed TO push railroads
into new country TO extend railroad
mileage, that with the taking Of rail-
road management under government
control this pushing of railroad con-
struction must slaclSen. But this has
not been Russia's experience, For-
merly the Russlon government en-
courNged the building of railroads by
private companies by richly subsidiz-
Ing them, This psllcy was pursued
with great libernlity. But during the
last dozen years different policy
has been largely pursued, that of
using the government money TO build
government roads rather than using
II TO subsldiZe private companies 10
extend the ralhond system, and with
vastly more satisfactory results. The
railroad mileage to-day is double what
II was dozen years ago and all this
double mileage IL being used, as II
was not q dozen yehrs ago, 10 foster
the industrial development of tho
country, promote the general veal.
Twelve years ago and more the rail-
road mileage, largely under private
management, was being used TO fos-
ter import trade into Russia to the
detriment OF her home industries,
But things are different now, different
under government ownership, and the
industrial development of Russia has
been great. During the last dozen
years the output Of coal and petro-
leum in Russia has trebled, the pro-
duction Of pig iron almost quadr-
pied, the manufacture Of textile goods
doubled, As general thing during
the last dozen years the rate of In
dustrlal progress IN Russia has been

In the good old times of "Merrie
England" there was a tax on win
dows. This was tax on sunlight and
the people protested so earnestly
against this evident outrage that the
direct government tax was repealed.
In this free country there is a tariff
tax Of 40 to l25 per cent, on window
glass, which prevents the importa-
ton of glass from foreign countries
and enables the glass trust to raise
the price of glass almost up to the
tariff line, which is the same in eff
feet as the old English direct tax on
windows The main difference is the
old English tax went into the govern
mcnt treasury, while the American
