The latter went hurtling on through his speech, taking it easy, and saying just what he ph ased, with an occasional defiant glare at his hearers when he had uttered some peculiarly unceremonious thing. "Campaign contributions and debauchery" was a phrase which he often repeated with manifest relish. Ho handed out buffets right and ' left, even going back to the election J of (Jrover Cleveland.

Blumenschein j has illustrated it wonderfully, in ] color. In contrast to this tale of 8 primitive strength is a delicate, 8 fanciful Irish folk tale full of the \ nimble wit of the race ill which e Herminie Templeton introduces g again Darby O'Gill, and the King j of tho Fairies.

A tax ipon every mouthful of food we at, every garment we wear, every imoer in the house we live in, very shovelful of coal we burn. 4 4 In America each person pays bout $7 annually for the expenses f the Federal Government . . . but he railroad tax in freights averages ach year over $20 for every man, I'oman and child, nearly four times ! he government tax. 4 4Now, taxation is an elemental unction of government; it is, indeed, he foundation of government. i 44No money, no state." 4'In the present railroad agitaion, the old, old question of equal axation and the right of represenation in levying taxes, is squarely Kjfore us again. "The cry arises rom every part of the country that he railroad 4baron' does not tax airly and squarely. He is charged vith making taxes low and easy for lis rich favorites?the Rockefellers, he Armours, and their like, and le is charged with making the taxes ligh and hard for the farmer, the mall, struggling manufacturers and hippers, and all the vast, unorgan- ; zed mass of producers and consum- i trs. He is charged with using his j rreat Dower to r?rnot,ieo ovfnrtir>n I io io charged with secretly paying i nick part of the taxes to his rich ' avoritcs by a dovioo called the 'relate.' Let the city of New York ecretly relmto part of tho taxes of ts wealthy citizens and see what a sommotion would arise 1 And yet he railroad corporation, which by drtue of its character stands in tho ilace of the government, is charged vith committing exactly that ofanse. In other words, those rail oad representative of ours, appointed by us as tax collectors, do not represent us, but work for their own personal political repsesentatives! The present demand for rate legislation jy tho government is nothing more nor less than the old, old demand for taxation without representation.'
