Nearly ever- good man lias been in

relation of a mother. It is true
that some women exert an evil in-
tluence over men, but they are rela-1 own diamonds and jewelry ten times

"Men seldom exhibit a similar in
fluence over women. They some
times degrade, but do seldom uplift.
Assuming that woman represents
the moral force of society, some pes-
simists have become alarmed lest the
development of her intellect and in
dependence should lesson her whole
some influence. In individual cases
this unfortunate result may follow,
but there is nothing in the nature of
intellectual culture to make it a nec

Ho Has Heon Heading Coin and Has
Learned 3iut-!i.
I have just finished reading Coin's
last book '"Up to Date." If some
body doesn't answer it and prove it
a lie it will shake this country from
center to circumference. The bank
ers and .speculators and money kind's
will be overthrown and the danger
is that the masses will go too far in
revenging their wrongs and, like
Sampson, pull down the temple and
crush all alike. When lie shows up
the inequalities of taxation and hoi
the rich escape, it makes the blood
boil with indignation. Aside from
the silver question he gives a certifi
cate of David Gore, the auditor of
public accounts for the State of Illi
nois, which shows that all that the
bankers and brokers of Chicago had
assessed for taxation was only $44,
000 of money, while farmers of that
county were assessed $84,000 for ag
ricultural tools and implements.
Think of it! The farmers' tools
assessed nearly twice as much as all
the money credits and securities of
all the banks, bankers and brokers
j of that great city. And all the dia
i monds and jewelry in Chicago were
assessed at $17,750, when it is known
i that single families live there who
control the assessors and escape
taxation. Can this be true? If it is
false why doesn't Eli Perkins say so.
I see that he has taken the lield
against Coin, but I can't tell exactly
from his last piece whether he is ly
ing or joking. He closes it by say
ing that after he had shown Coin his
j errors and fallacies Coin gave it up
! and the tears rolled down his cheeks
and he dismissed his school and de
clared he wasn't gwine to teach any
more. I like Eli. I like any lie that
is funny and harmless. I used to
like to read IJaron Munchausen,
and I like to read Eli now.
T confess that it strains my credul
ity to believe what Coin' writes
about the Chicago bankers' tax, but
there is the certificate of the State
auditor. Sruvly there is some ex-
planation of ad this.
"We know what
Solnmon and Paul and the Savior
said about rich men. but I never be
lieved that our rich men were that
bad. We poor folks whose income
was under the mark, believed that
to tax large incomes was the right
thing to do. but it seems that we
'can't do it. We are taxed all the
time on the outgo through the oper
ations of the tariff a taiit'T for reve
nue only with incidental protection.

for ;3 cents, but sells all over En

cedar pencil of the best quality sells
here for a nickel, but you can buy
the very same in London for a cop
per. And just so it is with hun
dreds of other things that are made
in this country. This incidental is
not accidental, but was done on pur-
j pose at Washington and our
i makers say we must stand it.

stop a tornado. I wasn't taking

as we had it in 1873. Neither the
President nor Congress can realize
the situation. No man can who is
drawing a salary of $,"), 000 and is

Last Wwk in Trade Circles.
Special Correspondence.
New York, April 20, 1803.
Business improvement during the
past week has made gradual but
steady progress. Speculation has
been less active in some depart
ments, as a natural sequence of the
big business and substantial ad
vances in prices noted last week.
But aside from the partial reaction
in oil, there has been no weakening
of values in any of the markets, and
the general a-erage of prices is high
er than it was a week ago. Foreign
investment in stocks and bonds has
continued, and for the week has
reached an estimated aggregate of
$G,000,000, which has been supple
mented by increased purchases of
breadstuffs. The tendency towai'd
more prosperous business condi
tions in this country is evidently re
garded with confidence by European
capitalists, who have begun to bu
back again many of the securities
which had been returned to the Uni
ted States during the period of de
pression. Industrial recovery is attested by
the concession of higher wages in
many manufacturing establishments
and by strikes in others, which indi
cate the belief among operatives
that the condition of trade justifies
an attempt to secure better returns
for their labor. The West-bound
tonnage of railroads is very large;
but farm work and decreased grain
and cotton reserves at interior
points and the resumption of lake
navigation tend to lessen the rail
shipments to the seaboard. Meas-
ured by bank clearings the volume
of business, is about 12 percent.
larger for the month than it was in
April last year. Merchandise im
ports are large, showing a notable
increase in the item of dry goods,
and exports continue to fall below
last year's totals for the correspond
ing period. Business failures in the
United States and Canada, accord
ing to R. G. Dun & Co., during- last
week numbered 207, as against 213 a
year ago.
Cotton prices have been well
maintained; but there has been no
further advance. Receipts continue

cotton during last week at all inte
rior towns were 37,02S bales; re
ceipts from the plantations, 43,833
bales; crop in sight, 0,370,083 bales.
There has been a further advance
of three cents per bushef in wheat
prices, which has brought thegener-
! al level of values 0 to 7 cents above
! the point at which the present bull
i concerning crop conditions and an
j improved foreign demand Have
had a stimulating effect on
all
the
i
! markets. Exporters have gradually
followed the advance in American
markets; and in spite of large sales
of Argentine wheat to Europe, which
have been helped by a further ad
vance in the gold premium in Ar
gentina, there has been an increased
business for shipment from the Uni
ted States. There is continued com-
; plaint of a deficiency of 'moisture in
the West, which, while it has caused
no serious injury to crops, is regard
ed with greater apprehension, and is
necessarilj- a factor of some import
ance in shaping the course of the
markets.
Advances of 1 to 1 cents per
j bushel in corn prices reflect to some
: extent the influence of the wheat
I trade revival; but the rise is also
! due in part to the moderate interior
i movement, gradually decreasing
stocks and a well-sustained demand
for export. There has been no ac-
tivity in the speculation in hog prod
ucts, and demand for home consump
tion and export has been compara
tively moderate.

Fallinu: OT in Ft'rtilizer Sales.
Farmers are buying less commer
cial fertilizers this season than usual.
The assignment r mortgage law
passed by the last Legislature had
much to do with this, but whether
from inability to buy or a determi
nation on their part to make more of
their manures on the farm and
thereby add more to the permanent
fertility of the land and at the same
time have less money to pay out
when the crop is made, we hope it
will be better for them in the end
and lead to the practice of using
smaller quantities of the stull in fu
ture. Some idea may be gathered when
it is stated that at the State Agri
cultural department it is given out
that the ballance sheet at the first of
April shows the receipts for fertiliz
er tags are 10,000 short of the total
at this time last year. It will be
diflicult to tell what 'the falling off
will be before the season is over. It
will be great.
