Investigations of the Salvation
Army workers and the agents of
the various charitable organiza-
lions this Christmas will greet
more hungry and unemployed
than ever before. 1t is not so
much the day-laboring class who
are affected. Tens of thousands
of them are returning to their
European birthplaces to enjoy
the winter on the savings from
their seasons labor. The men in
want this Christmas are the skill
ed workmen involved in labor diff
ficulties and the clerical en-
plOyes who are unable to replace
the salaries lost through reorgan-
ization and change. These men
should not lack Christmas cheer
in this great, rich and charitable
country.

wHATTHE FARMERS ARE TALKING
ABOUT.

Says an officer of one of the State agricul-
tural boards in his annual report:
we might occasionally drop the quest
ion relating to farm crops and take up
broader ones, which affect not only the
| farm, but the State, in the care of citizens,
such as education, taxation, influence of
trusts, the wisdom or justice of various
laws and their effect upon the farmer.
study Of these less familiar subjects, and
thus be benefit to all who would engage
in it. 1t would cause farmers to be better
informed regarding these subjects, better
able to judge Of what laws are needed, and
thus make more intelligent and capable
citizens
The farmers in the State are doing that
this year. They have been discussing
equal taxation and getting light on the
shameful system Of robbery by taxation
that exists in this State.
/ The farmers property is visible and tang
ible and none of it is exempt or is favored
with low rate. He pays for everything in
Guiding two-thirds of the cost of improved
roads. Aud he helps to pay the railroads
taxes and the taxes that the holders of the
bonds and stocks Of the railroads ought to
pay but which they are legally exempt
from paying
! Here in a country township are two
classes Of property, one owned by the resi-
dent farmers aid villagers and the other
owned by men living in New York, PhiIa-
delphia, London and Paris. The farmer and
villager pay an average tax of at least two
per cent for township aud village purposes.
The foreign property owners pay only one
half of one per cent and that goes to the
State. That is to say the farmer and VII
lager pay three-fourths of the foreigners
State tax.
The wonder is not that the people in the
country districts are discussing this matter
now but that they did not rise up in rebel
lion againt it years ago.

Gen'l Nelson A. Miles Speaks.

Gen. Nelson A. Miles, in letter to Col.
Finely Anderson, of New York, an old
comrade in arms, has given to the campaign
one OF its strongest documents. President
Rooseyelt's imperialistic tendencies the
arrogant assumption Of the Republican
party that it alone is fit to be trusted with
the reins government, the perils of inn
periaism and the erection Of royal statues
in Washington are dealt some severe blows
by the General Heeloses with this tribute
to Judge Parker:
'On the banks of the noble Hudson
there dwells an eminent citizen, courtly
gentlemen, a distinguished patriot, a pro-
found statesmen, a just judge, who, if cleo
ted President of these United States, will
carry to that responsible Office dignity,
ability and high character; and his admin
istration | know, will be marked by pa
triotism, integrity and earnest efforts, not
only to promote the welfare of the people
now living within our borders but to pre-
serve for those who shall follow us this
blessed inheritance within the bounds pre-
scrbed by the fathers who founded our
great Republic"

their disappointment at candidate Stokes
explanation of Equal Taxation in Green Is
Opera House last Friday night His brazen
statement that Woodbury. would lose $500
per annum if railroads were taxed equally
with private property, when now they are
taxed three-fourths less, is too great strain
on ereduialty to stand. The State now gets
slightly over $500, 600 from IS thousand
tax; under equal taxation the amount
would reach more than $4,000, 600. The
