JAMES MADISON IN YOUTH.
Scotch schoolmaster Named Donaldson

Scotch Schoolmaster Named Donaldson
Gave Him His start.
James Madison. fourth president of
the United States, was born at Port
Conway, Va, March 16, 1851. His IA
ther was planter in moderate circum-
stances, and James was the eldest Of
a family of twelve. The boys first
education was received at a school
kept by a worthy Scotchman, named
Donaldson. His progress was remark
able and encouraged his father to give
his son a college education. Young
Madison entered Princeton college and
was graduated in 1772, remaining
year after to make study of Hebrew.
On his return home he devoted himself
to teaching his brothers and sisters,
all the time pushing his own studies.
In history and constitutional law he
was especially well versed, and these
requirements served him well in his
public career. Early in 1776 he was
appointed a delegate to the state con-
vention which met in May, at Will
liamsburg. This conventions duty was
to instruct the Virginia delegation to
the continental congress in regard TO
the declaration of independence Three
years later young Madison was a dele
gate to congress, and from that time
he held many important public offices.
In 1909 he was elected president of
the United States. He served during
one OF the most critical periods in the
history OF the country-whiie the sec
ond war with Great Britain was in
progress. At the close of his second
term as chief executive Madison re-
tired to his estate at Montpelier, Va,
where he peacefully passed the last
twenty years of his life with his be-
loved books and friends. He died there
June %, 1885.

The British Budfef.

you have had your feast" says the
English chancellor of the exchequer.
you have all. Liberals and Tories,
been mad for rioting and expenditure.
Now comes the reckoning, and you may
laugh or not, as you please" There
will be no laughter. The English tax
payers were hilarious at the beginning
of the Boer war. They are not now
when the bills have to be paid and
they are so much heavier than it was
supposed they would be. The total
cost of the war will be about 81 .000.-
100000, necessitating a great increase
of the national debt and heavier taxa
tion for years to come. 1t is possible
that IL this could have been foreseen
the Beers would have been let alone.
A large proportion of the expense of
a war whereby Great Britain is ac-
quiring possession of devastated terri
tories inhabited by an irreconcilable
population will have to be paid by pos
terity. The budget of the chancellor
OF the exchequer contemplates loan
OF nearly $500, ,000,0 in addition to
new taxes. which it is estimated will
produce about $56,OOO,O0O. The pay
ment of increased taxes to that amount
would not seriously inconvenience
American taxpayers-whose taxes are
to be reduced about $40.OOO,OOO. Those
of Great Britain are not in so good
condition to meet new demands. The
income tax is now 5 per cent. 1t is to
be raised to little over 5.S per cent.
1t may be higher yet in year or two.
AS consols held by foreigners pay an
income tax American financiers may
not be ready to invest in the new
loan.
Beer, spirits, tobacco, and tea are
Gilpin observer., 1901-05-02

taxed heavily already. The chancel-
lor of the exchequer does not deem
an increase advisable. He will not lis
ten to propositions to impose duties
on breadstuffs or foreign manufactures.
Great Britain may come to such duties
in time, but is not ready for them yet.
For the first time in many years sugar,
an article of universal consumption,
which has cost less in Great Britain
than in any other country, will have
to furnish revenue. There has been
an immediate advance in it's price,
which may provoke complaints. Am
erican manufacturers of jams and jel-
lies will find British competition less
serious than it has been.
The proposed export duty of 25 cents
a ton on coal will produce considerable
revenue and will by discouraging ex-
portations tend to cheaper the price
of the article in the home market. The
expenses of railroads, manufacturers,
and private consumers have been in
creased greatly by the high price of
coal. A duty which tends to make it
more expensive in neutral markets
must work to the advantage Of Ameri-
can coal operators. They will be given
an opportunity.

BloOmers for Housework.

A recent advocate of dress reform
for women says that her advice, If fol-
lowed, will rob house cleaning of much
of its horror. Bloomers and blouses
are, she contends, the only rational
dress for a woman who intends to
tackle the house-cleaning problem.
Long swishing petticoats and feminine
fripperies have their time and place:

The British admiralty's estimate Of
the cost of the trip of the Duke and
Duchess of York on the steamship
Ophir includes the following items:
Wages of crew, $41,9s0; victualing and
clothing. $3.50; coal, $125,OOO; naval
stores, 50, 140; hire of the Ophir, $685.,

payers are loyal class of people, but
when they read in Sir Michael Hicks
Beach's budget statement that the
Boer war has added $275, 1000, 900 to the
debt, that the deficit last year was
s255, ,935, 900, and that they must pay
$56, 100000 of new taxes this year, they
