"FAITH" ALL THAT WAS LEFT
Symbols Of "Hope" and "charity" Had
Got Away from Unfortunate Sun
day School Scholar.

A young Philadelphia Sunday school
teacher tells this story of the result
of an attempted application of the
principles OF economies:
For some time she had endeavored
10 impress upon the minds OF one OF
her charges the names of the three
qualities, faith, hope, and charity. One
Sunday she presented the pupil OF the
poor memory with three new shining
coins. a penny. a fiye.cent piece. and
3 dime.
THE penny" she said, represents
faith. the fiye.cent piece hope. and the
dime charity, Keep these coins and
every time you look at them think OF
what they stand for"
The Sunday following the teacher
reviewed the lesson of the week be-
fore. and called upon the holder OF the
coins TO produce them and give their
names in proper sequence. The
youngster shufiied from one leg to the
other, stammered, bushed and seemed
altogether overcome with mortifica'
ton. Finally he burst out with:
please, Miss Fanny. | amt got
nuthin left but faith Baby swal-

RELIEVE THE POOR
EASTERN JOURNALS IDEA OF
THE TARIFF SITUATION.
New York World Sees in the tmposi.
ton Of an Income Tax the Least
onerous Method of Rails
ing Revenue.

"The in"ome tax" said Senator Al.
drich 10 Senator Bailey, lis an oner.
GUS tax" This he seems TO consider
u sufficient reply to the growing de.
mand for its imposition
All taxes are onerous TO those who
pay them. But an income tax with a
generous exemption limit would not
apply to nineteen American families
out OF twenty: with graded rates II
would fall most heavily upon the
strongest shoulders. Excepting a gimi.
larly graded inheritance tax It is the
least onerous known.
Mr.. Aldrich prefers the most oner.
GUS taxes to those least onerous. He
prefers taxing the poor to taxing the
rich. He prefers indirect taxes that
confer advantages upon monopoly to
taxes open and above board that pro.
duce revenue.
The most onerous taxes in the civ.
ilized world are the American retalia.
tory tariff on kerosene. which enriches
the Standard OIL Company and robs
the consumer; the tariff on meat and
cattle. which aids the beef trust to put
up prices; the tariff on iron ore. which
gives the steel trust an advantage
over the independents and with the
tariff on lumber and other materials,
makes homes costly: the tariff on
woods and wooden clothing. which
makes New England millionaires and
let's poverty SILVER; the tariffs on a
thousand direct and indirect necessi.
ties Of life which feed thousand
trusts and make costly the living Of
eighty million people. Mr.. Aldrich
stands for all these. The Republican
party stands for them. The "Me Too
Democrats In the senate stand for
them.
When will American voters insist
upon the imposition OF the least oner.
GUS taxation and the abandonment OF
material reduction of the most oner.
Gus? When will they insist that their
congress shall reduce the cost of living;
tax wealth, not poverty New York

Shoes and the Tariff.

w. l.. Douglas, former Democratic
governor of Massachusetts, adds his
word to what Judson Harmon and
John A. Johnson, Democratic COVER
nors of Ohio and Minnesota, have said
to spur Democratic senators In con-
grcss to be faithful in their tariff at.
titude to the principles they profess.
AS a manufacturer of shoes Mr..
Douglas says: Il would gladly swap
any doubtful benefit from the duty on
shoes for the certain benefits Of free
hides and leather" He foresees as 4
result of tariff on hides "a gigantic
trust controlling all the beef.packing,
leather and tanning shoe manufactur-
ing industries of this country No
higher authority than Mr.. Douglas can
be cited.
A tariff on hides for the beef trust;
tariff on iron ore for the steel
trust; a retaliatory tariff on Russian
oil for the Standard oil trust; no con
cession to reduce che cost of living
no movement to tax wealth, not pov.
erty. That is Mr. Aldrichs idea and
the idea OF Democrats and Republi.
cans who follow his leadership!

SLAYER Shot Dead m Court.

ST. Louis.-Fred Mohrle, who killed
Constable Sam Young In North st.
Louis several weeks ago, was assas'
sInated in the corridor of the Grim
Inal court building by William Kane,
a former deputy under Young. Kane
shot Mohrle as the latter was being
taken TO court to stand trial for the
death of Young, and is the elimination
of o bitter political feud. Mohrle had
asserted shortly after the Young
shooting that the gang had threat
cned TO get him, but, following the
ethics of the gang" he refused to
reveal the identity OF the men who
had threatened him, saying that he
could take care Of himself.

Some Democrats Easy to Find.

Where is q Democrat" asks the
Globe Democrat in fog of ignorance.
Well, there is one up in Minnesota
who happens to be governor of that
erstwhile Republican state and an.
other one similarly situated In North
Dakota. A hunt around indianapolis
and Columbus would locate two more
Democrats In the executive Offices at
the statehouses of two more states
which used to be Republican. but
haven't been since the last election.

when he declared that it was not the
manufactures. or the lumberman. or
the coal man, or the iron or steel man,
or the cotton or wool men that insist

pie never demanded that the tariff be
