MORE AEOUT THE INCOME T,y

y
A few days since we mentioned the growing
discomfort of the people win reference to GER
tam features of the internal revenue laws and
hOtlced plan TO equaliZe the income tax
Since then We have seen several articles in
leading papers of all political parties taking
strong ground in favor Of a repeal or modifca
ton Of our law taxing incomes, which, IL ia
said, is an imitation of the English law framed
by the landed aristOcracy in their own inter-
est, without reference TO its oppression of
other classes The strongest argument against
our present law is that the tax levied on an
income derived from mental or physical labor
is the same as that on an income derived from
invested capital. Thus. the clergyman the
doctor, the lawyer, the editor, the mechanic
and others who live by labor: who are able to
save little or nothing; and whose death or ina
oilIty TO labor at once depriyes their families of
the means of support: have the tax to pay on an
income spent perhaps months before the tax is
due Often, too, it happens that the income
TAX has TO be paid at a time when the income
has ceased, from sickness or other causes. The
capitalist, on the other hand, has his reserve
fund TO draw from. A correspondent of the
Boston AdrertiSer gives a few figures to render
the contrast between the capitalist and his
neighoor who works without capital more
striking. He says:
ssLst US suppose the case of a nerson with
$lOOOoO invested in real estate the net rents Of
which amount 10 $1,000, and physician who
earns by his profession the same amount In
the course OF the year each spends $4,000, and
saves and invests 3 900. At the end of the
year the capitalist is worth s1Ol 200, the phy.
sIcian $1,000 Is II Just to demand the same
tax, s22O, OF each OF theml But suppose the
physicians income TO exceed the others, and
TO amount 10 $1,000, and that at the end of the
year be has saved and invested $1,000, his tax
then enlarges TO $3.50, while the capitalist with
more than thirty three tunes his capital pays
only SEQ. Is there any reason or iustice in
this -
