able to make the announcement. as we
are authorized to do. that though he has
neither sought or expected the nomina-
ton, Prof. Williams yields to the par
tia1ity Of our Senatorial Convention and
places himself at the services of the
people Of the District
Now let every Union man 20 TO work

THE INCOME TAX.

The effort now being made in Congress
10 repeal the income tax hns met with de-
,crinincd resistance from an unexpected
quarter, and arguments have been urged
for it, continuance which must have de-
cdcd effect upon the public mind. On
Saturday last the subject was brought be-
fore the House of Representatives of Con-
gres., when Mr.. Worries declared that he
would not vote for its repeal, that the tax
was popular, and should be maintained.
The rich pay it, and upon the rich the
great burdens of the government should
be imposed. lie could not see that there
was any weight in the argument that the
tax wa, q charge upon success; and, if he
could he would make the law
imposing it far more inquisitorial
than It is in its present form
The debate was racy, and the advocate OF
the tax came out Of the contest ifnot victo-
rious, II, least sanguine of their ability "a
prevent it, repeal.
