elf this Bill THAT for the distribution ofthe pro-
ceeds OF tho Public Lands,l becomes a Law, the
share OF Vermont in these proceeds will amount to
more than $4,000 per annum.-Free Press, July
%.
Sc In the House the most important movement
OF "Wednesday and Thursday was the introduction
from the Committee of Ways and Means, of bill
in relation to drawbacks &c, providing for an in
crease Of duty on all goods that nolc pay less than
20 per cent, and for a duty of 20 per cent, on
most goods now free. Free Press, same date.
The Distribution Bill it is estimated, will with
draw three to four millions of dollars annually
from the revenue. This must be made up by the
Cusioms-or in plain English, By to1iag The Grti-
cles zee consume Let us see then how much Yer
mont will actually gain by this Wanted "retorm. "
The assumed proportion which Vermont will re-
ceive Is $4,000 annually, or something less than
dollar each for the Sc, 900 feemen of the State
as shown by the last fall election,
Now the principal articles which are either free
or pay less tax than 20 per cent, are tea and
coffee, which are now free, and sugar, which pays
duty Off i-2 per cent,
Every man, then, who purchases pound of tea,
(supposing it to cost rs cents now will have TO
pay 10 cents additional, or 90 cents.
Every man WIN purchases sugar, Ho" NoIlH
ST, 90 will be taxed Sl,l7I-2, or an increase on
its present cost of II l-2 per cent.
So too, every man who buys dollars worth Of
coffee, must pay 20 cents in addition to what i.
costs now.
1t should be borne in mind that these thee items
ure only part Of the articles now free, or paying
less than 20 per cent, ad rolorem, which must be
tarel to make up the deficiency accustomed by
giving less than dollar each to the reemen Of YER
mont The farmer must pay the tar, while his
nOol receives no additional protection. The me-
ehanic must pay, although the price of his labor
has been reduced 25 per cent And the laborng
man for whose interest nothing is done, will have
to forego his accessories, which our federal rulers
would tar under the head of" iururics."
The case then stands thus Vermont's share will
go into School Fund.- or something similar which
will serve to lessen the taxes of the rich But Yer
mont must pay out some 500 900 or 5000, 900
annually to support wing extravaganza at Wash
