rs PAROIING WRONG?

L convicts wrong? Does it work an
injury to society? The sheriffs Of the

The National Sheriffs association
is meeting at st. Paul and in the pa

sheriffs the system was roundly con-

baton. !. + "a
On the other hand many judges ond
attorneys who have to do with the

not SO much with the system as with
its operation-a very human fault.
It is a fact that many paroled men
return to crime. Just as It il true
that many insane patients discharged

A DIRECT TAX.

Protectionist papers are taking lively interest
in the exercise bill that passed the house as an ad
junct of the free sugar bill and is now taking the
attention of the senate. It is being attacked d.
rect tax as substitute for the indirect tax known
as the protective tariff And the claim is made that
as direct tax it will find disfavor with those who
must pay it.
That last claim is probably true, for it is hu-
fact that men hate taxes, no matter how fairly
and lightly assessed how wise beneficial or neces-
sary the use Of the money thus raised. It's human
nature, that's ALL survival Of the days when taxes
were not laid as fair contributions for the support
of necessary government, but collected through the
medium of arms, whips jas, and confscation.
It is that spirit that has, at least to large
tent permitted the tariff to go long it's course
Of making the special privilege benefciaries rich
at the cost of the Masses has permitted it to protect
trusts and monopoes and add greatly to the
cost Of the peoples living, and led the government
into extravagances the like of which even imperial
Rome did not know.
The indirect tariff tax money comes easy-until
it's abuses have all but broken the peoples Backs
And like all easy coming money it goes easy through
pork barrel long rolling appropriations. It has
not only led to SINFUL wastefu government extrava
gances; to the accumulation Of vast fortunes in the
hands Of the few; to government and personal dis
plays of wealth that have proved to be costly ex-
amples to the people who have tried to live the
extravagant scale, but under the guise of
protection to the workers they do not receive, it
has permitted extra tax touched by govern
ment to be laid against the people, paid by them in
the prices added to their necessities and comforts
But direct tax, in whatever form it may be
laid, is paid directly to the government by the peo
ple They have an interest in it's paying and there
fore in it's spending. They must take it from their
earnings, and they will watch it's use they watch
their banks and the other institutions in which they
store or invest their money. That makes it better
tax even if it is not always popular.
With direct taxes there would be less of govern
ment waste and extravaganza. There would be
more even distribution Of wealth. The people would
pay to the government, not to private interests
That is what benefciaries Of special privilege do
not want.

BOOSTS AND SLAMS ,
ON CURRENT EVENTS
A WRONG TENDENCY
HAT it is as wrong a tende,

THAT it is as wrong a tendency
Il as it is common one to Law the
olame for disaster on the dead has
again been shown. When first Tho
oH1cers of the Burlington road inves-
t1gated the wreck of nearly three
weeks ago near Chicago, the blame
was promptly laid on the engineer
VINO died faithful to the traditions
OF mis- calling. But now comes the
coroners jury to take the blame
from his dead shoulders and Law it
elsewhere.
1t has long been tendency to Law
the blame for disaster on some one
who could not stand in the living
nesh and defend his honor. In fact.
1t has become almost customary to
let the living go. It was so when
the Titanic went down, is so again "a
SHOWN by the British report which
planes the captain, but leaves the
owner free. It has, been so in a
thousand cases. %,.~
therefore it is with pleasure that
this Illinois coroner'si jury goes be-
hind the dead form of the engineer
and seeks the true sources of blame,
which it finds in the system Of oper-
alton, In the looseness with which
orders We're enforced, in the care
lessness of others. The dead man is
blamed only for failing to observe
rule that unrebuked practice the
system over had made a dead letter.
Thus the dead, the man who true
to the best traditions OF his calling
stood at his post, trying to save
his train until death made his Of
fort useless, is cleared Of the dishon-
or so. lightly and so quickly laid
upon him. In this there is a lesson
that should, but that probably will
not be needed by mankind.

Foulon's comment was

allowed them to- retain Foulon's comment was
Let them eat grass. There is plenty Of that
Mr. Sharer deals with the question Of existing
discomfort in the spirit. He declared to his
fellow bankers that another period of hard times
and misery is needed to quiet existing unrest and
that 1.-THE bread line is the only thing that halts
certain class of cvoters''
the Foulon-Sharer type of mind is not rare. It
is kind that cannot comprehend that victims OF
legallzed robbery have cause to complain. When
predatory interests take in inflated trust prices ex-
orbltant rents, and other monopostic extortions so
much Of the earnings Of labor that producers must
starve on the tra1g amount left to them as wages,
MIR. Sharer still sees no cause for unrest. *'Let
them eat grass or ''let them go into the bread
lne'' is the only suggestion that finds favor with
that type.
Foulon had the fact impressed upon him in a
needlessly rude but very convincing manner that
the sufferers did not take kindly to his remarks.
Fortunately times have now changed sufficiently to
relieve Mr.. Sharer of any danger of learning his
mistake in the same way. He has chance to learn
without being subjected to violence that hard times
and misery so far from being the cure for popular
unrest, then the American people would now be the
most contented on earth
An attempt to cure discomfort by increasing hard
tlmes would surely have results very disappointing
to the reactlonary experimenters
