TAXATION OF DEBTS
Tho subject Of tho power Of State 10 tax
tlebts due in another State 10 ono OF hcr citl-
zons-which subject gained such special
prominence bY 1lr. D. H. Wills recent revfow
OF tho case Of K1nT11Np, now pending In tho
Supreme Court OF tho United Stntes-has
boen discussed elaborately In this paper and
by various correspondents. This question,
rs wolf as tho whole subject Of taxation, can
hardly bo investigated too much, because,
oven anong persons well informed Oh most
subjects, thore is a lan,ontable want Of study
on this mattor Of taxation.
4 striking fact in tho history Of American
taxation is furnished By tho romark Of an
experienced Tux lawyer Of this city. Ho said
that, In tho preparation OF an argument Oh o
case involving tax questions, tho attorney
luay search tho law rcrorts Of all tho States
except Pennsylvania, and find decisions In
almost ovory volume; tho roason why tho
Pennsylvania reports furnish no oil! in such
an Investigation is, that tho systom Of taxa-
tion In that Ssato difTors from TINT Of a1l tho
other statea, md It works 80 aamirably that
thero is but little, II any, litigation; tho
taxes are cquitably adjusted, are paid, and
that IL tho emu Of 1t. Herein wo discover
tho truc cause Of the bad operation Of the
other systems Of taxation. When any tax
becomes uncqual,-iH not uniform, ,-whon
ono portion Of tho property escapes
taxation and another portion Is taxed
