THE DRIFT.

At the present day. politics in the
United States are in a state of chaos.
Party lines are nowhere clearly drawn
or dsfnable. The partisan movement
that seems now the most likely 10 de-
velop the cohesion Of national party
constituency, 10 the so-called Working
mems party. 1t is the outgrowth of the
impotence that is beginning to be felt
under the severe inequality in the bur
den of taxation as laid by our past and
present notional financial system. The
fact that the government bonds are
exempt from taxation. is having in re-
atty this effect: that in towns where
city. county, school. road, State, and
other taxes I'D iafnituna. amount to.
say. four per cent. per snnum, six per
cent. bonds, are really as good paying
investment rs taxable money loaned at
ten per cent. which is higher rate
than money can command in most parts
of the United States Our own Terri
tory, we may say, en- parenthesis, is an
exception in this regard. by reason of
being new and full of undeveloped re-
sources. The consequence Of this ia
voritism naturally is to withdraw
money from its Legitimate Office az the
lifeblood of trade and industry for con-
version into the tax-shirking bonds.
While no patriotic citizen may ven
ture TO say that this has not been
wise, or at least necessary measure Of
policy on the part of the Government
in the past, it is nevertheless certain
that the time is near at hand when the
taxridden people, as well as sound pub
lie poli,y. will imperiously demand
readjustment and an equalization of
taxation. Special exemption and ia
voritism has now been carried almost
too far, at least in this matter Of the
bonds We should be in favor of some
determinations that would work to the
advantage of trade, enterprise and
labor, because they are the right inter-
ests to encourage and help along but
IL these cannot be had, let there be, as
the nearest approach to justice-.unifor-
nifty and impartiality. The withdraw
ing of so much capital into tho Govern
ment securities, while it has saved the
financial credit and secured tho SOL
vency of our Government. has at least
had the effect to check the building OF
our western railroads, and to psralyze
productive industry generally.
This workingmen's craft. with its
bottom plank of uniform taxation, is
no doubt the winning boat in the COM
ing political race; for the people will
naturally coalesce and adhere on an
issue that affects the very bread of
themselves and families. and the edu-
cation Of their children.

correspondent seems hopeful, and int,-
mates that Austria is endeavoring 10

views. however, conflict with the gen.
