"EQUAL TAXATION"

To the Editor OF The Tribune. .r0r
SIR: The most taking party cry IN the imam
cia division OF campaign subjects is Equal Taxation
Let address few words to our old friend the Constr
tutiona Democrat upon the exemption OF United states
bonds from local assessment. Our friend is sound on
some points He is, for example, unable to see either
honor or Justice in the Pendetonian scheme, which Is to
give for BOMBS promise 10 fund bond, until, by alter
nate and successive payments and FINDINGS before the
debt in really due IL will be beyond calculation what Is
the number though not what Is tho value, OF our obg-
ons lilo is unable TO see, let suppose, why the debt
should not DO paid by bringing gold to par ana giving Tug
creditor bis choice in curreuces. He Is war man. and
all that; yet he blameg Congress for making HIM pny
