READING THE FUTURE.

Graft and Peer Into the Hiddem
Mysteries Of Life.

Ever since Saul proved the incon-
sistency of man by rushing off to con-
suit the Witch of Endor after taking
severe measures to exterminate witch
craft, there has been a universal crav-
ing to pierce the veil that hides from
US the good and evil of the future"
says writer in the Ladies' Field.
The craving for the knowledge of
what the future holds is turned to ac-
count by thousands of persons in
every generation, who claim super
natural powers of vision and prophecy.
IAstrology is perhaps the most i'm
pressive form of so-called 'diyination'
possibly there is something inspir-
ing in the thought of ones destiny be-
ing guided by star. But there is moth
ing sublime about a greasy pack of
cards in the stuffy parlor of house
in dingy street, which is the environ
ment of the modern sybil. Yet every
day her rooms are crowded with silly
women, whose carriages wait round
the corner while they themselves sit
shivering in rows for their turn TO
have their destinies revealed to them.
They don't really believe in it. of course

you the most extraordinary things

The New York CITY election dc

The New York City election de-
veloped a number of surprises, re-
suits which show that other in
huences besides partisan politics
were in operation. 1t is shown that
large number Of Republicans vot-
ed the Tammany ticket while a
large number Of Democrats voted
the fusion ticket. This is one of the
surprises expressed but it shows that
national politics had nothing to do
with their action. Another sur
prise is that of the election of M. w.
Littleton as president of the borough
of Brooklyn when he made no can
vass and did not expect to be elected.
Still another curious thing is the alb
sence of scattering and independent
votes. In the presidential election
in 1896 there were cast, aside from
the votes for the regular nominees
ofthe two great parties, independent
votes in the city for the several side
parties-National, Social, Prohibi
ton, etc.,-to the number of more
than 100000. These facts show
that the election was generally con-
sidered as of strictly local interest.

Senator German wants to make
the race question an issue in the
next presidential election. He be-
lieves such question will strengthen
the Democratic party. Likely it
within the South. But at the
same time it will strengthen the Re-
publican party in the North. The
discussion of this question will harm
the South and affect the North only
in arraigning nearly the whole peo-
pie against the intention to curtail
the rights Of the colored people as
Citizens. The intention to revive
sectional animosities should be dep
recated. The people of the South
will find it to their interest to dis
courage this demagogical scheme.

The news is confusing, or con-
fused. The dailies assert that Rus
STA and Japan have come to an
agreement and there will be no war.
In other columns Of the same papers
it is claimed that war between these
nations is imminent. In the papers
of this state during the past week
three statements have been made
with reference to the intentions of
Governor La Toilette, any one of
which being true the others must be
false: He will run for governor a
third time; he will not run for gov
ernor but will try for the seat OF
Senator Quarles; Governor La Fol
lette has not made up his mind
whether he will be candidate for
governor again, whether he will try
for United States senator, or neither.

that the candidates on that ticket

posed in them will have strong
influence in compelling good gov

You Know How IT'S Yourself.

A writer with sshalf- breed" in
stincts enquiries through an exchange
our motive in making the following
statement of facts in last weeks is
sue of the JOURNAL:
"The administration claims the
credi: for the reduction of the state
tax this year. Logically, then, it is
responsible for the increase of the tax
in the three previous years-Iooo,
1901 and 1902. For those years the
tax levy was: 1900, $I,823,4444f, 1901,
S2,257,853; 1902, $2,325,9Io. The
tax in 1890 was $8Io,6oo; in 1894,
$4o7,434. By contrasting these sums
the showing for the present admins
tration isn't much to brag about"
The writer of the question has
himself given the answer for our
motive in his attempt to explain the
FACTS in the statements he quotes.
The administration ostentatiously
advances the claim that through its
economy taxes are reduced this year.
Logically, then, it was through its
extravaganza that taxes were raised
in the three years previous to this.
The half-breeds say the stalwarts
must explain why the tax is SO much
smaller this year than last, implying
that we must accept the puerile
claim advanced by the administers
ton as the cause. In that case will
not the ssrule work both ways?"
If the explanation of this nameless
writer shows our statement of last
week to be "misleading," it shows
as convincingly the abs urdity of the
administration claim.
