simplicity In Taxatton.


The sweet simplicity Of the English sys-
tenn OF taxation is shown in a striking man.
ner in the exhibit Of the revenue and ex-
pendltures Of the United Kingdom for 1872.
Tariff and excise yielded for the year endisg
,Jupe 30, 1872, 1881, 7s3, IT'S. or this sum
three articles, spirits, tobacco and sugar
alone yielded s2O6, SOC, 1856, or more than So
mar cent. of the whole revenue OF the King
dom: and OF the remaining S144,9 S6, $3.50,
stamps, incomes and postage yielded slo4,-
1926, $50. Thus six items OF taxation yield
ed ss1l,1 1873, sos, or ss per cent. OF the whole
revenue. Spirits and tobacco are luxurles.
The stamp tax and the income tax fall on
persons who have property. Sugar Is the
only actual necessary Of life in the list; and
as it is used by rich and poor, It yields a
large revenue, and causes all classes to con-
tribute something to the support OF the gov
eminent.
The English system, simple as it is, yields
sllt per capita, while the American yields
only 50 per capita. And our system IS lar
more onerous. All the taxes produced by
The English system go to the government,
and more than one-half oil the taxes,
under the American system, go to the
protected industries. Upon this point,
the St. Louis Republican says: 1.-THE
..article OF pig iron, on which there is a
etariff OF 81 per ton, yielded in 1870 about
"sl, 200, 900 to the Government, and about
"s15, 600, 900 to the American iron-masters;
..other articles made similar yields Of small
.samounts to the Government, and largs
samounts to our home manufactnrers'-so
sthat, while our people pay only nine dollars
..per capita Of taxation for the support 81
stheir Government, they pay full as much
.more for the support Of a few favored In
s.dustries. 1t was estimated that under our
.tarif, before 1t was. recently altered, four
sfbousand articles were taxed. The ex-
.~.plsnatlon OF this is the absurd Idea enter
Grained by our legislators that, to reach all
s~tclasses OF r persons, it is necessary to tax q
..preat number OF articles. This clumsy no
.tion illustrates how much study our law-
smakers have given to this important branch
"of legislation. A tax on sugar alone
breaches, not only all classes OF persons, but
ssevery person in the land; so does a tar on
stsalt; 30 does q tax on Woollen or cotton
..goods. So, then, If the object be to make
call persons pay some tax to the Govern
..ment, we should limit this part OF the sys-
stem to a few articles Of universal consump-
.'tIon, and tax o few articles Of luxury for
s'the bulk Of the revenue"
