It is said that customs inspectors

professional smuggling awakens re.
sentiment because the smuggled dia.

likely to cause more disturbance in

LOUBET ON THE

London Telegraph. He was present at
a banquet given by the Congress Of tho

tended 20 be a sort of measure to pro-
tect the interests OF the bourgeoisie
against the ever more threatening en-
croachments of the extreme Socialist
elements. The most striking part Of
M. Loubet's speech was that In which
he protested against the tendency Of
the Socialist doctrines TO discriminate
in taxation.
NJ. Loubet does not believe in "A penal
budget for France any more than you
do in England He said. In substance,
that an equal distribution Of taxes was
one of the main objects Of the French
Revolution, so how was Il that now
that. after 12O years have elapsed "a
revolution was being prepared 70 bene-
it only a certain portion Of the in
habitants, and representing the very
opposite policy?
"My idea of a democracy was that
each citizen should, according to his
ability, share in the expense and de-
fense of the nation. I did not think
that the great majority of the people
would be declared beggars and be told
to live on the means supplied by the
rest. When I supported the creation
of Labor Syndicates in 1884 1t was not
with the idea that they were To live
chiefly on the funds supplied by the
bourgeoisie, which is now called upon

you are perfectly right I'm associating

Some time ago certain Emmanuel

When thcy had come 20 look for them

brandy. The unfortunate birds quick

the college, who happened to pass at
the time, was scandalized to see six
ducks reeling back in their pond with a
staggering waddle which left no doubt
as to their condition.
