THE growth of business in this country
greatly concerns the people in the matter of
bearing the burden of Government expense
The increase Of wealth is the reduction
OF taxation, just as it is q multiplication of
the material and taxable values in the COINS
try. 50 an exchange makes this point: I. The
internal revenue tax Of the year 1866 was
reduced to en- extentthat would have yielded
sle9,eQo,o0o less Of revenue than the year
pregioasi yet the increase of the business of
tbs country was such that the reduced rates
OF t~xasion produced over S4o, 1000, ono Of ,be
anticipated reduction. This Increase in the
general business Of the country warrants an
annual reduction oil The rates Of taxation
which will end in combining the taxation to a
few specific objects and tha, at Annually re.
ducing rates.
