The Cigar and Tobacco Tax.
The tobacco manufacturers ara expected
re soon, says the Washington Chronicle
the 18Th, to revive and seitsUe the old
lestiOn Of the reduction of the tobacco
<. Commissioners Douglass has not, as
e, laid N his lire Of policy as to what
Will recommend in connection with
Is mgtter. and IS there is such diversi-
OF Opinl0u between Congress, the to-
eco manufacturers aud Internal revenue
il is extremely doubtful if any
ing whatever IL done in the matter, and !
sl probability i VIII be deemed exps- :
ant 10 let the matter stand just as il is
present. The manufacturers complain
a. the tax Ofsixteeu cents per pound on
g poorer qualities of tobacco, and thirty
70 cents for the best grades, is q Erisvous s
e. q II should be made more uniform, Z
their idea Of uniformity is to FIX the 2
te of tsXstion As sixteen cents per pound T
: all clsss6s of tobsccO-just what the d
)vernment receives for the poorer grade .
tobacco at the present time The man :
acturers oppose every proposition to TX e
o rate a. 8 figure slightly above sixteen
nts, and, although the committees of
.ngress have stood ready to reduce the
< and make It uniform, the idea has
Yer met with favoE among the manu-
'turers, except IL is fixed At thisr rate, c
llch, If allowed, would take SO 100000
7 annum from he revenue Of the gov
lment, and tbs efforts made in this be-
II have always, very properly, met with
before the committees Of Con- a
5ss. The cigar tax, which is only half & 8
IL on each cigar (dOmesJicl no matter y
lst the price, is bringing in a evenue Of
cut S6,OOO,O0O 8 year. This tax of q hslf b
1t has been in vogue for four years past, -
d although there are some ~oppOrtuni-
S to evsde the law, which are ia q great
instances taken advantage of, it is
that as much revenue can be col !
from cigars with the rate as &C pres I
fixed rs by any other system, and C
m present indications il is not expected g
It any change in this tax viii be recon. i
