When every man had to by the eweat of his brow, things were better than they bs today; but when some “superior” fellow morta] learned the trick of living by the sweat of the other fellow's brow instead of his own, he played a mean game on his brother man; but it cannot be helped, and the chance to earn a lliving which the i werld owes us all Is not so commen | today ag it used to be. The system of industry which throws men into enforced idleness puts upon | mankind the obligation to care for their unfortunate brothers; -and it will be & better world to live in when men se¢ this and accept it as a cheerful tafk instead of a burden. The Over- be a squabble and it is based £oing to be as florce unreasonable such controversies ‘always be. uance of power, The gountry cannot see why the matter should not be con. ‘month: AN INHERITANCE TAX LAW IN- JUSTICE. The Massachusetts inheritance tax law operated to the great injustice of a dependent citizen and now an at- tempt s belng made to avert its re- currence. Tdward Fox of Nantucket died and he left a nephew of Spring- field an annulty of $50 & month - so long as he should live. This nephew was in the last stages of consumption at the time of his uncle's death and had of his own no means of main- tenance. The inheritance tax law pro- vides that the tax commissioner m figure out from the insurance actuary tables how long the reciplent is. lfkely to live, how much he is likely to re- ceive beforo he dies, and levy a tax on a percentage basis, which must be paid at_the start. In this case It was estimated that the Springfleld tax was due to. hfm over 15 years and the executor was called upon to pay some $450. As a matter of fact, this man was In the last stages of consumption and, in destitute circumstances. The uncle | had been remitting regularly in his 1ife time and the announcement of the | executor that nothing more would be forthcoming until the man had worked out nearly a years annuity was a heavy blow, An appeal was made to the tax com- missioner, who went to the attorney general. It was finally declded that they had no legal authority to change the decree or the method of payment. The, executor, however, 814 allow $10 a month to the man, who died about the time the account squared itself. A law which 8o operates for the utter impoverishment and distress of a beneficlary is certainly a poor law, for it puts a burden upon the state and pauperizes & citizen without ade- quate reason, | LICENSES EVEN BLIND TIGERS. When the United Statés government is looking for revenue, it takes no no- tiee of the will of the people and up to date it has refused to pass any in- terstate laws which may serfously af- fect its liquor licenses which it is. sues to all the prohibition states re- gardiess of the vote of the people or the state laws, Attention is now be- ing- called to the fact that the gov- ernment revenues have mot fallen oft s0 much considering the spread of pro- hibition through the great states. The first fifteen days of March the inter- nal revenue receipts were 93 per cent. of the collections from the same source for the corresponding period of last year. And it is explained that the United States internal revenue collec- tor not having before his eyes the fear of loeal unpopularity finds the “blind tigers” - which a local sheriff always fails to discover. Hence, he is more active In_the prohibition states than fn those where the liquor business s conducted open and above board, If anyone thinks that Uncle Sam has any moral consclence they are simply mistaken. When he is looking after his revenue he refuses to recognize |law breakers, Al who pay their dues | stand on an equel footing in his sight. | EDITORIAL NOTES. | Miss Cannon still declares that she cluded in five weeks instead of five b do not in 2 as hat can than braing this fashion: 60 feet of shelving.

The fact should not be lost sight of that many of the working chlildren in this state are the mainstay of the home; and that without their help the family would be broken up and dis- persed—dispersed in that brutual man- ner which forever separates mothers and children, and brothers and sisters, from one another. Nothing should be done which will tend to break up these homes, for it is rather the policy of government to encourage the thrift and unity which they represent. “There 1s no place like home, though it be ever so humble” runs the song, and it is true.
