The Internal-Revenue Taxes

A demagogical appeal is made to the
voters In behalf Of the continuance OF the
internal.reyenue system--namely, that the
tariff on sugar ought to be removed before
the tax on liquors is abolished. We have
often explained that it is notso much the tax
on liquOrs that the Democrats wish to get rid
OF as the army of spies and informers and
the vexatious prosecutions which are
part of the internal-revenue system. We
need and desire good government; and
we are willing to pay for it. What
are few dollars contrasted with the
denominations Of a department which has
cooled the patriotism OF thousands OF good
citizens, caused thousands Of unnecessary
prosecutions for statutory offences, and
even silenced again and again the voice Of
the people in presidential election. 1t is
not too much to say that but for the cleo
tioneerers furnished by the Admins
tration itself and paid for their SER
vices out OF the taxes collected from
the voters, the Democrats would have
had possession OF the Federal Gov
ernment from 1877 until now. These
internal-revenue officials and employees
these spies and informcrs--are distributed
throughout the land. They abound in the
cities and in the country-in the lowlands
and in the mountains. They are ubiqui-
tous, or numerous enough to seem to be
ubiquitous. They must ego" The GUS
toms-duties viii supply abundant revenues
for all the wants OF a government Geo.
nomically administered. We may pay to
the Government more taxes in the shape
OF customs-duties than we do in the shape
OF internal revenue; but at least we never
see the Government officials who collect
those duties proving around our houses
nor marching of to Jail persons innocent
Of crimes.
AS to the temperance feature OF this dis
cusson it may he said, with truth w,
think, that there Is more liquor drunk nov
than when there was no tax upon it, ant
when the price was less than half what
now is. Again: The nltra prohibitionist
are not willing for the Government 10 Gem
pound crime, as they term it-that Is. t
derive revenue from the "vices" OF tn
public. So that the threat that all the ten
perance people VIII desert the Democrat
party il 1t makes an issue on the abolitlo
OF the iuternal-revenue system is not yer
alarming one. II Is TO be noted that u
Democrats OF Pennsylvania followed II
example Of the Democrats OF Virginia
demanding the abolition Of all intern
taxes.
II, as is claimed by some, the tax upC
liquors can be collected without any SUI
machinery rs the Government now ust
and without any peripatetic officials,
spies, or iniormers, or electioneerers,
will be time enough to consider that out
ton when the scheme is presented
detail. At present we know Of no 81
scheme. Congress ought to have adopt
1t years ago II such system be possible.

call for at the fands Of an outraged peo-
ple. II there be left any Of the OLD Virg'.
nian spirit that has held high the banner on
seli-esteem ever since the foundation OF
the Commonwealth, let these efforts 10 nre
the northern heart fire the Yirginian hears
to do It's whole duty and weary not until
the last yestige OF unholy Coalition Is
swept from her soil. II this spirit has died
out, and Virginia has sunk so low as to Tor
get the glory Of the past and be callous 10
the honor of the future, then we must make
up our minds to be the footstools OF our
trsducers for generations. "To your
