Out such things grow

at pleasure, this same
laudable desire becomes, by- its
methods and results, a crime
against society. It deprives one
portion of the of the equal
protection of the laws; renders it less
possible for them to maintain the
straggle for their share of the pub-
prosperity, and converts a gov-
of freedom and equality
into a despicable tyranny. No man
can v that such an interference,
whereby law takes sides be-
tween citizens in what should
be an equal contort, is inevitably
followed by such resultS.
manufacturers of country
furnish an indisputable illustration
of this getting rich legislation.
I have already dwelt sufficiently on

unsubstantial as that veil was, it is
now gone. The revenue is now
many, many millions in excess of
expenditure. Every possible
expedient has been resorted to for
keeping that excess down;
appropriations, refunding of
direct taxes, pensions without limit
the payment of debt bear-
three per cent, interest, with
money which was worth six per
cent, to people from whom It
collected and even reaching
forward and paving the debt not

over tho needs of the government is
gaining. Yet the manufacturers
and their advocates in Congress re-

Another method of getting rich
by tho aid of law is the of
monopolies. Monopolies are
either by low or by combinations
which are made possible by the laws
They also exist sometimes by force
circumstances. These
; lies generally assume the shape of
corporations chartered by
State of Federal, it is true
that there is no set limit to these
charters. In theory, if one railroad
company is incorporated, another
may be between same points.
So of banks and all other business
associations. In good policy they
should always be multiplied, for
the greater the number the less the
v ; but in fact many corpora-
become sufficiently powerful
to prevent the establishment of
their rivals. Even where the Leg-
is true to its duty and char-
enough companies to give the
people the benefit of competition,
they combine among themselves
and become to all interests and
poses a monopoly. In this form
they are more dangerous than when
acting singly, for their power to in-
legislation is so much great-
Not only so, but being united
in interest and such simple
executive management, they can
easily destroy all competition by
the weight of their combined
alone, without regard to
AH they ask of law is to
be made a body politic, by which a
number of persons can act with the
efficiency and convenience of a sin-
and that law should
then stand off. The monopoly fol-
lows as a matter of course, and in
communities, States, and
entire regions of country are
with absolute impunity. In
this way most powerful and
agent of modern progress is
converted into an engine of
without conscience and with-
out responsibility. For it must be
admitted that no conception of mod- j the refined article,
times has done so much to pro-
mote human advancement in all
that pertains to the accumulation of
wealth as this association of
effort which charters of in-
corporation afford. Bat the greater
the benefits of the system, the great
the need to see that are rot
permitted to convert these benefits
into positive evils more urgent
duty of legislators to keep them
the servants, and not the masters,
of people. Among few and
highly intelligent, these
are easily affected, and this- is
seen daily. Not only do the
rations created for the same
pose conspire to influence
or to control trade in ab-
of legislation, but, as a gen
era rule, all other corporations
whatsoever do the same. The
banks, the railroads, steamship com-
the manufacturers and trust
companies all make common cause,
and that is to
and public policy in their inter-
est. This gives to their peculiar in-
such an approval of
public opinion that it is often
ken for public interest, and
tors seldom believe that fol
lowing their suggestions are
serving the public, when, in
they arc serving corporations.
Here is room for
as badly needed as tariff taxation.
The one is an outrage by
and the other by omission of
the law. one plunders by the
direct command of law;
plunders because the law does
not step in and forbid. Some idea
can be obtained of amount of
unjust taxation collected

official visitation. Yet they collect
more taxes, and by methods more
and unjust, year by
year, is collected for all State
and Federal purposes in the United
States. To all complaints by the
public they reply by simply inviting
public to help itself. Things
are perpetrated daily which if done
by officials who were responsible in
any way to the people or dependent

tors from their places with a

The first great illustration -of a
monopoly which exists by the
of law to interfere, which
naturally suggests itself villainy
to forsake both father and moth-

generation at least follow only the
record of its transactions, need hope

If this is all, when a young man
calls to sec a young lady, send him
into pantry to taste tho bread
cakes that she has made, or
send him to see the needle-work
and bed-making, or put a broom in
her bands, and send him to witness
its use.
Such things arc important and
the wise young man will quietly
look after them.
But what the true man most
wants of a wife is
love.
The way of life has many dreary
places in it, and man needs a com-

A man is sometimes overtaken

That Third party Movement.
Every reader of the
tor is acquainted with our views
on the temperance problem.
Every one cf them knows that
we have been all along an earn-
est advocate of temperance re-
form. There has never been any
worthy movement set on foot in
regard to the regulation of the
liquor traffic that we did not fa-
and encourage, both by
and example. We have
lived temperance, we have talk-
ed temperance, and we would
have voted temperance if the
opportunity had been given.
Believing, as we have believed,
and still believe, that liquor is
the curse of the world, we have
tried in every fair and laudable
way to discourage its use and to
suppress its sale. And we have
done this with good will for all
and malice towards none. The
business of a public journal is to
labor for the weal and prosper-
of mankind, we would
be false to our God, to our
low-man, to society, and to our-
were tHis not the case.
But while this is true, it is our
prerogative, yea our solemn

misdirected effort which may
be put forth in behalf of the
temperance cause. Such an
effort is now being made in the
State, and we enter against it an
earnest protest. We see that

Sunday morning, in broad day
time. The jailer went to the prison
in the morning and turned the in-
mates from their cells into
as usual. He then left and
upon returning about two hours
later with their rations found the
building empty. It was discovered
that the prisoners had out a hole
through the brick wall separating
the corridor from fuel room,
and passing through this the
the exit was almost without
obstruction. Near the hole was
found an a chair post and a
piece of plank that had been torn
from the floor. With these tools
they made quick work of it. How
they got is not known but
it is supposed one of prisoners
slipped it from the fuel room. The
jail had five occupants, four of whom
made their escape. The other was
a partially insane man who got out
and went to look for the Sheriff in-

Life may grow darkened, though love

Yet never this song in our spirits shall

After the shadows, the morning.
Never so closely does pain fold its wings
But the white of Sympathy's

And each tear that the dark of
Misery wings
Brings the touch of a blessing to

As fades the dim night at the coming

When it weaves its bright web of

So grief from out life path

Love comes back to an empty heart,
Or a being clothed in love's sweet guise
Love bids sorrow and tears depart;
The dear old light in the tender eyes
Like a swift, bright sunbeam hastens
here
And warms the life that was cold and
drear.
The old. old love of the days of yore I
It is shame V Oh love, confess.
Is it not deeper than e'er before.
To cheer, to guide, and forever bless
Answer me. Love turn not away ;
Speak to m ; say you have come to
stay.
Who can be sure of Love's replies.
Hiding his myriad masks
Yet to my soul this dear disguise
Savors of Heaven ; all it asks.
Swift, sweet tears to the eyelids
Love comes lack to an empty heart.

A Good Country for Poor Boys.
The United States is the best
country in the world for poor boys.
Young America always has a chance

the United States, however poor he
is, or however gloomy his prospects

good health, determination and
the possibilities before him can
scarcely be limited.
About forty years ago a schooner
foundered Lake Erie, not far from
the Ohio shore. A few hours later
an infant boy, tied to a mattress
and supported by life-preservers,
was found by a farmer. The
history of the child could not be
learned, and the farmer adopted
him as his own. After eighteen
years on the scraps of
time having meanwhile been spent

boys, and was remarked for his fix-
of purpose. He went back
the farm, and after his day's work
was done, read law by light of
the kitchen fire. Subsequently he
was admitted to the bar, worked
hard, distinguished himself, and
was elected a judge. Some years
later he was sent to Congress, where

Life may grow darkened, though love

The strength of its light around it;
Till longer and deeper the shadows
grown.
Hide the of bliss that crowned it;
Clouds may float down on our of
peace
And crush our meek flowers with
scorning.
Yet never this song in our spirits shall
cease.
After the shadows, the morning.
Never so closely does pain fold its wings
But the white robe of Sympathy's
near it;
And each tear that the dark hand of
Misery wings
Brings the touch of a blessing to
cheer
As the dim night at the coming

When it weaves its bright web of
adorning.
So pale grief from life path

Love comes back to an empty heart,
Or a being clothed in love's sweet guise
Love bids sorrow and tears depart;
The dear old light in the tender eyes
Like a swift, bright sunbeam hastens
here
And warms the that was cold and
drear.
The old. old love of the days of yore
It is the shame Oh Love, confess.
Is it not deeper than e'er before,
To cheer, to and forever bless
Answer me, Love ; turn not away ;
Speak to me ; say you have come to
stay.
Who can be sure of Love's replies.
Hiding behind his myriad masks V
Yet to my soul this dear disguise
Savors of Heaven ; all it asks,
Swift, sweet tears to the eyelids start;
Love back loan empty heart.
