way could be reached by taxation; but soon
the officers of the Government began TO collect

TER OF justice and right, our people should no
longer be required TO bear the burdens that
are gfieyous and unjust We maintain that
there isa policy higher and better than that
OF squeezing taxes out of an Impoverished

percentage possible, and with the least avoid.
