Tho Herald this morning has an
editorial on new papcrsand internal
revenue, stating that IL has been
served with notice Of tax due on its
business, and unless paid, the usual
remedy would be enforced. IL is
not informed under what law this
attempt TO tax tho press is made,
and styles il n forced and absurd
of the act by ignorant
assessors. The whole tenor Of rev.
enue laws rs regards the press
shows that Congress did not intend
TO tax newspapers. Incomes from
newspaper business pays tax the
same us other incomes, but the bus
incss itself il not taxed. IL AN
nounccs its intention to resist the
construction put on tho law by the
assessor, and believes the press gen
orally will do the same.
