Unequal Taxation.

The Cambridge Chronicle, speaking of
taxation in Maryland says:
Pertinent questions are being asked in
regard to this matter of taxation. How is
it that under bill of rights which declares
the principle that taxation shall be general
and equal in proportion to the value of
property, that the owners of corporation
stock worth sl00,000,000 shall pay no
taxes to support the State, while the farmer
and small capitalist who loans to his neigh
Dor shall bear the whole burden2 Why
shall farmer who owns $4,000 farm pay
$50 per annum into the county and State
treasures, while his neighbor owning $780,
900 of property (his share of lands, horses
&c, belonging to the corporation of which
he is member pays not one cent in that
direction2 If the property of the State
be equally divided, s100,0OO,0OO belong
ing to the corporations and S100,OO0,000
TO all other classes of the community, and
the farmer be exempt from taxation and
the ratio of the taxes be 81 on the 500,
and of course the latter are taxed 100
more than they would be, ifin the language
of the Bill Of Rights, taxation were
equal for in the latter case the ratio of
taxation would be but 80 cents to the
500, 5000, 100000 being taxed instead of
500, 900, 900. Each farmer who now
pays $50, would pay but Sl5 per annum.
II there be 10000 farmers in Maryland,
SIS to each would amount to $3.50, 900,
which is paid out by them and saved by
somebody What they want to know is,
,rho gets their money and ,ehy do they get
it.
We answer in two lines-the great rail-
road and banking corporations get the
money for these members, and they get it
upon the good old principle,
"Tbat they shall take who have the power,
And they shall keep who cam"
These vampires of the people have conf
bined to exempt themselves from taxation
by means of Legislature influence, and the
people have no resource but to combine in
turn in order to restore the equilibrium,
the inversion of which is crushing them to
the earth,

escape the deserved penalty of their crimes
by raising false issues. They have the effron-

Il this assumption were we'll founded, it would
