FACTS FOR FARMERS.

In one of the most valuable and
thickly built parts of Boston the value
of the bare land is $3,192,OOO per acre,
while the value Of the buildings Is
only $43S,OOO per acre, So the Boston
palaces are worth less than IA per
cent Of the land underneath them,
How about the farm lands? Taking
again rural Berkshire as defined by Mr..
Hill, the value Of its land is SIS per
acre, while the value Of Its buildings
is $3.50 per acre, So the Berkshire
farm houses are worth III per cent Of
the Berkshire land. In other words,
the taxation Of buildings bears more
than eight times as heavily upon the
Berkshire farmer as it does upon the
Boston banker.--Thomas G. Shearman.

THE REAL AMERICA.

Ye say, I'VE are Anglo-Saxon!"
And ye strut in the pride of birth;
Ye are drunk on a lie, and waxen
So mean that ye covet the earth,
The Saxons are old-time yeomen
And they lust, like worms, for the

We are mobiles, each man, and foeman
To tyrants, the underworld round,
We are mobiles and freeman and broth
ers.
We have left oppression behind
For we drank with the milk of our
mothers
The thirst to be noble and kind.
We are Saxon and Slav no longer,
Nor Teuton, nor Latin nor Kelt,
For the chains that wed us are stronger
Than the slaves Of the world have
felt.
Our sires in Europe were smitten,
For thousand years were undone;
Our fathers repulsed the Briton
AS Boston and Lexington.
We are kin to the souls of Grattan
And Of Emmett, who dared the
moose,
We claim Garibaldi the Latin,
Kosciusko and Kruger and Bruce.
We have done with the old transgres-
sion.
We have learned our lesson well,
And the hate that we feel for oppres'
sion
Is as hot as the Goals OF hell.
Neither slaves are we. nor despoilers,
And when others dies to be free,
A wind blows our plain men and toll
ers

CURE FOR THESE HARD CON-

was given to one shift,and New Years,
when half holiday was given 10 the
other shift. The officers Of the cor
poration say they will spend 100000
to defeat the strike, not because of the
pitiful increase Of wages which the
girls ask, but because the moral ef-
