Every day of the year except assessment day New York is filled with millionaires. If the assessors would only devise some way to pre- vent this annual day of millionaire poverty the tax rate would be less than 1 per cent., and all the people who are not millionaires any day of the year would benefit.

His view is that criminal propensities are inherent and that to edu- cate the criminal intellect makes its possessor more capable and adroit in crime. It raises him from the rut of ordinary criminals to the possession | of qualities which allow the commission of more dangerous crimes. From this point of view human possibilities are like a field where stimulation and fertilizer will produce a more bountiful crop of weeds unless the process of selection applied at an early stage cuts out from the| benefit of the fertilizer all those plants whose growth it is nat intended to encourage. According to this, children who manifest symptoms of crimi- nal tendencies should be kept ignorant, so as to limit their criminal pos- sibilities. Higher education should be given only to those children whose | careers would be naturally beneficial. | How this process of selection can be worked out is another problem. ANTI-RENT RIOTS. Anti-rent riots are no new thing in New York. While the Goerck street rioters may not know it, they are imitating an example some seventy years old, when the farmers of Albany, Columbia and Rensselaer Counties resisted much more violently the payment of rents to the old patroons. The Goerck street protesters against increased rent can readily re- move somewhere else near by, while the farmers on the patroons’ estates would have to go to some other county. The result of the rent riots by the farmers was a change in the law limiting the number of years for which agricultural lands may be rented, and making a distinction betsveen farm tenants and tenants in tenement-houses and other strictly residential Property. In their protests against increased rents the tenants are neglectful of the landlords argument. He says that if the tenants will pay the interest on the mouney on the property he will not charge them anything addi- tional, Maybe“the landlord is having a harder time to pay his interest than the tenants have to pay their rent. The system of speculating in New York real estate and of buying Property on a shoestring necessarily forces the landlord to try to get more rent to make his equity valuable. The rents are high. But the bombard- ing with stones of an individual landlord will have no effect in remedying the system. to thank her matrimonint person of bewildering ch stars than his first, | But he js not, he cannot be, in any sense, an sorrow or of black that Even the novelist can do’ morphosis about. | object of romance i |nothing for him.
