While the producing industries of the
country are unjustly taxed, and the almost
intolerable burdens of the war rest upon
those who fought the battles and made the
sacrifices, those who titled lands to produce
supplies, and those who labored in the
workshops, the organs of the Radicals are
asserting that the bondholders are the men
who pay all our revenues. They sueeringly
say that mot one laboriug man in every
hundred pays penny Of taxes to the gov
ernment directly" True, the laboring man
docs not pay his taxes directly to the gov
crnment, but every man Of sense knows that
the consumer pays the tax upon every arti-
Gle manufactured by capital. A practical
working man, few days since, handed US
the following, which in itself is volume of
argument to show that the poor man does
pay taxes:
Radical legislation requires the consumer
to pay all taxes.
It taxes the hat on your head.
The boots on your feet.
The clothes on your person.
The food you eat.
The tea and coffee you drink.
The pot it is cooked in.
The cup you drink it out Of
The implements on your farm.
The tools you work with.
The paper you write on.
The pen and ink you use.
The papers and books you read.
The furniture in your house.
The gas or oil you burn.
The coal you consume.
The stove you burn it in.
The match you light it with.
The medicine you take.
The tobacco you smoke.
The pipe you smoke it in.
The dishes on your table.
All you cat of them.

bonds, pays no taxes whatever, draws inter
est in gold, laughs at his unfortunate neigh
Dor, who has his money in a little home
If the masses Of the laboring men desire
the equal taxation Of every species Of prop
erty according to its real value government
bonds and other securities included-if they
want one currency for the government and
the people, the laborer and the ofice.holder.
