MR. WRIGHT'S PROTEST.
The prospects held out to the
farmers and real estate owners are
not very attractive under the pres
ent administration. Property of
all kinds is going down and taxes
going up and if the administration
expects to stand at what it is at.
the sooner the farmers, real estate
and business men call meetings
and demand a lowering of taxes the
better off’ we shall be, for it is im
possible for property, contracted
and contracting as it is, to stand
long.
Through all departments of gov
ernments, state, county and city
taxes should be reduced, for lands
that 12 months ago raised cotton
at 8 cents per pound now at 6 is
not as valuable as it was then, and
city property that 12 months ago
rented at S4O to SSO now rent at
$25 to S3O is not as valuable as
when it paid the SSO and will not
be given in for the same.
This is just but the commencing
of shrinkage as what it will be if
some change is not brought about.
How can property stand the tax
ing power when the contracting is
going on at the other end. Let
everything contract in the same
proportion and we then can econo
mize and probably pull through.

Youth
Is the period. It is then that the
mind is freest from care, the imagination
unhampered, the memory most retentive, the
eye brightest, and the nature most
susceptible. What a boy reads in this
period becomes so Indelibly impressed upon
his nature that it becomes a part of his very
character.
This is a time when a parent’s responsibility
is greatest. It is not enough to tell the boy
what he ought to become Most boys are
not overly susceptible to didactic
teaching. You can usually lead him a mile
easier than you can drive him a rod. See
that he has the proper surroundings, and a
little encouragement, and it is surprising how
readily he develops a taste for the best
in literature. Let that taste be developed,
and there is little danger as to his future.
It was
Dr. PhHips Brooks
Who said; “Show me what books a boy
reads, and I will read you his destiny. ’
How important it is, then, that your home
should be provided with books of the highest
character
Fairy tales, and even, perhaps. “Buffalo
Bill stories, have their place as developers
of a taste for reading, a sort of literary milk,
as it were, but unless the, boy soon shows a
preference for the stronger meat of practical
knowledge, history, travel, etc., you may be
sure that he is mentally unsound, or that
there has been something radically wrong In
his education.
The Encyclopedia Britannica has nightly
been termed “the concentrated essence of
the whole world’s wisdom.” Let your boy
read its interesting pages, and he will soon
look with disdain upon “ flashy " literature.
We are continually underestimating a boy’s
Capacity for large ideas. There is nothing
so attractive as truth. Give him the material
out of which to construct large ideas. Put
Britannica Ih the home, where he can consult
it continually, and as he attains manhood he
vill find no place in literary or professional
life to which he may not aspire.
Seize the present opportunity to provide a
proper library for your home. It requires an
