Iaser.aI Reve.ue Receipts.

From the comparative table, published by
the Treasury Department, Of the receipts from
internal revenue from July to April % Of the
last and present fiscal years, we notice falling
Off of over thrty-three millions Some have
supposed that this reduced income from in
ternal revenue arises from the modification of
the law by Congress; but this is q mistake, as
no results have yet been obtained from that.
One Of the principal causes will be found in
the condition Of trade in the country and the
reduced incomes Of business men. Many Of
the greatest merchants, such as A. T. Stewart
and Clafin & Co, who returned immense
incomes last year, return little or mono this
This may not indicate the standing of such
great houses, as they balance the PROTEST Of
one year with the losses Of another; but IL
shows q reaction in business from one cause
or another. Probably there was great deal
Of overtrading shortly after the war; there may
be large unproductive stocks on hand; people
may not buy quite so recklessly, and the re-
turns from country merchants, particularly
from those OF the South, may be slow in coming
in. Various causes may have combined to
produce this falling OF in the incomes of our
great business men. Illicit distilling
has been general and no doubt the
government has been greatly defraudcd
in this way. Losses have occurred, too, from
the complicated and expensive management d
the Internal Revenue Department Besides,
people learn by experience to evadc the law
in hundred ways, where SO many things are
taxed, and where the facilities for defraudine
the government are so great
We cannot tell yet what will be the effect Of
the law a. modified. 1t supposed the revenue
will fall of much more wnen that goes fully
into operation. But whatever may be The
result, one thing Is cer.ain, and that l. that the

their rights. The interest which would have at
tached to either the one or the other, had they
occurred ct longer interval, will be dimin-
ished by the attention which will necessarily
be given to each. Both, however, will take
place. The Congress will assemble, members
will proceed TO business, and in all probability,
before the shades Of Tuesday evening have
fallen, telegraphic wires will announce to all
the ends of the earth what is the likelihood Of
an amicable adjustment Reformers will gather

will make it plain to the world that, in spite of

too expensive in the management Instead Of
such system Of taxing almost everything, and
the inquisi<orial income tax, revenue should be
raised chiefly from few articles Of luxury in
general use. The British government raises q
revenue equal, or almost equal to that which
we need in this way. The machinery would be
thus simpli6ed and the cost Of collection
greatly reduced. Unless Congress wants to
keep up the present system for the purpose Of
providing for an army Of oficeholders, it will

burdensome. Where are the statesmen who
can comprehend the subject and accomplish
such desirable object?

In Memnriam.

Mr.. William Spencer, whose death we motto
ed in the last number of THE News. was born
in Center County, Pennsylvania. September
9th, 1900. In 1855 he removed with his fam,
lily to the vicinity Of Rockford, Winnebago
County, Illinois. He remained there til
1857, aud then emigrated to Kansas, locating
on tn farm he has since occupied. His object
in coming here was 10 assist in making Kansas
a fl ee State, and, inspired with this high pur.
pose, he cheertully endured the famine and
hardshipS which frightened away the less ear
nest and resOlute- He took q prominent part
in all movements in behalf Of popular freedom
or public improvements. and was universally
respected as IA man OF sterling integrity, and
one endowed with rare intelligence and
thOughtfulness.
He came hither when Kansas was an utter
wilderness, and lived to see her people over
come famine. waF, and every obstacle, and
maF,h grandly forward 10 the pathway of in =
tellectual and mater ial progress. Though his
health has for years been feeble. his menta
powers, down to the very day of his deaf h.
did not seem TO be in the least impaired. He
has known for some months that his end was
near, and always expressed himself as ready
and willing to go. His death, which took
place on Friday the 2lst ult. was rather sud
den, but at parenty painless.
Father Spencer was buried in his own gar

which sect he was, by birth, though not by
recent association, member. A large con

Jackson township.

1t is matter of surprise to many that Jack
con Township should have cast so many votes
sgainst the Railroad Bonds. That township
will be benefited by the building of the road
as much as any other part of the county; and
this is acknowledged, We believe, by nearly
every citizen of the towns hip. The cause of
the opposition to the road is to be found main
" in the revival of an old local feeling which
we had long ago supposed to be extinct. The
township owes its partial redemption to the
work of such men as Squirs Henley, the
Paines, StevensOns, OgdenS, Beckes. John
son, Bunch, Pratt. and many others. to
whom great credit is due. The sooner Jack
son township yields to the prudent and wise
eoun sells of these men, the better for all con-
eerned. Blind hatred of men Or1Ocalities new
er yet built up a town or G untry. The pros
Ierity of the great mass is the future Of each in
dividual member of it. When We come to
vote Bonds to our cross abroad. we hope tC
find our friends in JacksOn in better humOr.
