Companying records. The instrument

the prison. on which both the wings

William stevens one of the men,

appropriate words expressed the APP

Mrs. Breitung's handsome gift, and of
her constant interest in the welfare
of those confined in the institution.
II can assure you" he said, I'VE have
all derived genuine benefit from your
past acts of generosity and Christian
kindness, and | venture to say that the
inspiration and pleasure that has come
from the records you have SO gener-
ously given us on prior occasions have
been the means of Frightening and
helping many saddened lives"

HEARKEN TO THIS

WHEN he Hon. w. U. Heusel, former
AttsrneyGeneral of Pennsylvania, came
10 the Tome Commencement last week,
as the orator of the day, he came with
ringing message that ii was good TO
hear. We herewith present to our read
ers the following valuable excerpt from
that notable address and ask Ior the ut
terance a careful reading:
"A vast quantity of sentimental energy
expended in suppressing child labor
ought to be more protitably employed in
teaching children how to worok. There is
more promise of true manhood in a
youth accustomed to honest toll than in
one that rusts in idleness and rots in
vice. There is no greater delusion than
the popular belief that men-and even
boys-are dying from overwork. Millions
are living by ii and laugh and grow
fat while the luxurious and licentious
loafers fall by the wayside. In the
world of action. as in the world of study,
ii was never so true as now that the lit
tie finger OF Bacchus is heavier than the
loins of Euclid.
None the less, there rs reason TO fear
much of this false doctrine is cherished
in The cluster of lay students and pro-
fessors from the classroom of lazier pro-
fessors. To the dull complaint of a
drowsy teacher that ne had TO work IA
hours week for seven months in a year
the other day | heard the sharp retort
from a brilliant business man rnat he
still had to work IA hours day, six
days in week and II months of the year.
Many a professional man would be an
office boy yet if his task had been as
light as that of his own office boy, and
many student is carried to his diploma
on the fowery beds of ease, whose father
had to sail through the bloody seas TO
send him to and get him through col

WHO is A TAXPAYER

THE word 'taX-payer" is so constantly
employed in all discussions of public
affairs that one does wisely to get well
fixed in his mind just who is a taxpayer.
Well, who is? YOU ARE. MY FRIEND.
No matter who you are, what you are, or
where you are-you are a tax payer and
nave got to be one, whether you want to
be or not.
Let us try to illustrate this statement.
in order to give il ample proof and 10
make it impressive TO every mind. You
rent the house you live in. Your land
lord pays the taxes. Primarily he does,
OF course; but in the last analysis YOU
pay them. People do not buy houses for
fun. They buy them for investment.
They expect a proper net income from
the inves ment and are going to gel it
or rid themselves OF the property. In
figuring on that net income they, of
course, charge against the rental taxes,
as we'll as other expenses If taxes are
raised. rentals must be raised proper
tionatcly to make good the income from
the investment, When the rental is thus
raised to meet the increased taxation, the
renter is paying n.gaer taX-charge, Of
courst.
Precisely the same line of reasoning
must be pursued into every phase of life
A merchant must reckon his expense
charges" into all mis- figuring on his bust
ness, if he is going 10 make certain of
his profit. One OF those expense charge 8
is the taxes on mis- stock and real estate
If those taxes are increased, his expense
charges are increased and his selling
charges must be increased accordingly,
or he goes to the wall. When, for this
reason, his selling charges are increased,
you, the purchaser, whoever you are, are
certainly paying more taXes-ind!rectly
10 be sure, but you are paying them al!
the same And so the thing works into
every nook and corner of our living OF
course, the burden of taxation falls more
directly and heavily on some than on
others But to some extent, 1T FAILS
ON ALL 1t is great mistake to think
we can divide our social organism up into
unrelated sections. In most matters we
are one and indivisble. If one member
suffereth, all suffer. When your tooth
aches, you hurt all over" There is
something of the same unity in the social
structure. No one part suffers alone.
1t is therefore, a lamentable fallacy
for many folks TO comfort themselves
with the reflection that they can afford to
be Indifferent to. unconcerned about, mat
ters of taxation, because they are not
tax payers". THEY ARE, and the sub
ject is one which vitality concerns their
personal affairs, their household econo-
mics, their wage increment, their whole
material welfare Their is no escape
from being concerned in this matter-eX-
cept by translation to another world

A FEW PLAIN QUESTIONS

WHILE Governor Colds borough, in his
Farmers Day address al Newark was tel
ing his Delaware auditors that with nine
millions of dollars Maryland expects 20
shortly complete 1900 miles of road
Maryland listeners were unGer strong
temptation to put to the Governor these
three quesions:
l. How are we going to get TWELVE
HUNDRED miles of road out of that nine
fact the nine millions is already con-
sumed land more than consumed) by the
seven hundred miles already built or
contracted for? What are you going to
build the other four or five hundred
miles out of, to get up to the tweive hun
pie, matter of fact practical inquiry,
that we much prefer hearing it answered
in cold figures, to hearing public state
ments that may Tor may mott carry
popular effect, but which belong prop
erly in the glad free realm of the imagi-
nation"
. And, then as question No. 2, we beg
TO ask WHAT WE HAVE GOT IN THE
WAY OF PERMANENT ROADS," after
the nine millions of dollars have been
spent in building the same? This is the
most serious and alarming phase of the
whole matter. For instance, while Gov
ernor Goldsborough was speaking on
Monday, he stood within few miles Of
a stone road-the one from Elkton TO
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1913-06-21

use the other 10 miles in every twenty?
That is to say, with nine millions of dol
lars gone from the peoples pockets, only
one twentieth OF the territory is served.
Is such a plan equitable ana Just to the
vast majority Of our people? 1t may
suit me, by bringing an improved road
by my door. But shall ! have no con-
slderation for my neighbor, who pays ne
much for that road as ] do and who has
not, and never can have, any such service
for himself under the present system?
Let the spirit Of goodsense and COM
mon fairness awake. Let us agree that
experimentation has gone far enough
too far indeed. Let us agree that there
must be an overhauling and readjusting.
We all want good roads. But We want
ROADSIDE costly make -shifts-and we
want them for the greatest service to the

MEXICO TO PAY FOR
PRISONERS FOOD
Army VIII Make Demand on State De-
Partment and Formal Claim VIII
be Made on Mexico.

Mexico will eventually be required to
foot the expense bill for caring
for Mexican federal soldiers held pris-
oners by the United States government
at various points along the information
al border during the past two years.
The United States army has been
feeding these prisoners as they have
been arrested from time to time. The
money has come out of the army ap-
preparations. It is the general under
standing among army men that a claim
viii be made on the state department
by the military for reimbursement for
such expenditures. This will eventual
" lead to the state departments max
ing claims upon the Mexican govern
ment.
Fearful that release Of some Of the
prisoners might cause forfeiture OF any
claims presented by the United States
government, is believed to have caused
the removal OF prisoners from Fort
Bliss to California when their release
was attempted through federal court
proceedings.
In ali cases the soldiers voluntarily
came to the United States in search of
an asylum This was afforded them
The American army supplied them
with food and shelter
Recognition of the fact that claim
would be made by the American gov
eminent is understood to have been the
underlying reason for efforts made by
the Mexican federal authorities to Sc
cure the release OF the prisoners who
were held at Fort Bliss. Equal de-
termination that their maintenance
should be paid by the Mexican govern
ment, Occasioned the move made by
the American authorities in removing
them outside Of the jurisdiction Of To-
cal courts.
This is to be but one Of the many
claims that the American government
will present to Mexico. The justice of
such a claim, it is claimed, Is plain and
acknowledged by students of interna-
tional law and practice. The troops
voluntarily came to this side and sur
rendered to a friendly government IN
order to secure protection. rms pro-
lection was afforded them, but the gov
eminent granting it, it is claimed. can
not be expected to bear the expense
