Such are the practical statements
and still more practical suggestions
for relieving the PEG pie of England
Of taxation by man who has
achieved In two hemispheres un-
paralleled success in dealing with
great and difficult questions. In his
second letter Sir Edward deals
chiefly with that great question
which has frightened John Bull
nearly out of his wits, namely, the
coal que stion. Sir Edward handles
this coal question in his own peculiar
style. lie says:
Fifteen years ago Mr., G adstone
got bitten by a theory of the late
Professor Jevons about c,aI. In
plain words, the Professor put it
into Mr.. Glsdstone's mind that in
100 years our coal supply would BIZ
exhausted, and Mr.. Gladstone, upon
that assumption, told the English
people that they ought at once set
about putting their houses in order
by taking Immediate anu severa
measures to liquidate the national
debt. Of late years we have heard
nothing about this coal theory, and
people in general have rather come
to the conclusion that for the gene
ration of to-day to 60 on short COM
mons all their lives hence, because
it may bs possible that their great
great grandchildren might become
bankrupts, is nonsense. The coal

tions and developments as tende to
nrove that stores of fuel existed In
thousands of unexpected places, and
that it would be time enough TO
take up the Jevons-G Gladstone theory

Lord 5000 instead Of at present."

SIR EDWARD WATKIN ON NATIONAL
DEBT AND TAXATION.

| While we are literally paying war
taxes in time Of peace, and our tax
ridden people were refused even a
miserable reduction of 20 per cent.
of these war taxes with an over.
flowing surplus revenue of $780,
100000, one Of the most practical
men in England and in Parliament,
Sir Edward Watkin, whose reputs,-
ton is as well known on this side OF
the Atlantic as it is In his own
country, is endeavoring to reduce
the taxation of the great masses in
England at the expense of paying
| off the national debt less rapidly.
| Sir Edward wrote two letters ID
Mr.. Joseph Cowen, the Liberal
member of Parliament for New
castle, on this subject, which are
full OF interesting and practical sug.
gestions.
In his frat letter Sir Edward
facetiously remarks:
"The debt is, by the by, the only
thing the nation has all to itself.
We have the Queens army and
navy, the Queens taxes, and the
Queens church, but the ,debt is the
nations very oWnP
He points out that when George
Ill. assembled the throne in 176O the
national debt was only e102,014,0lS,
but IN 1920 had sWelled to 1854 ,s0O,-
$50. This vast debt, has, however,
decreased, and will ia 1SS4-5 be in
round numbers 9700, 100000. Sir
Edward then states the celebrated
NorthcOte act in q few lucid SEN
fences as follows:
s'Sir s.. Northcote's act of 1875
practically provided that, whatever
the amount of interest due on the
net amount of the debt, or e2!, 00O,.
900, as above (if that figure be nearly
accurately less the new sinking fund
for the time being-the taxpayer
should never contribute less than
8,O00,000-the object being to take
at least $1,000 a year for reduction
Of the principal of the debt"
Tnen there is the so-called old
sinking fund, that ia to say, the an
nual surplus Of revenue over ex-
penditure. There falls due in 1885
96, o6l, 600 Of terminable annuities,
and different cancellations of chan.
Gerry and savings-bank stock, so that
Sir Ed ward says:
"Thus, under one hocus pocus or
another, it is not at all Improbable
that the taxpayer may have to pay
during this twenty years at least
e10,000,00O a year average, and in
the earlier years PROBABLY as much
as Els, 100000 the great bulk of
which Will come out of the pockets
of hard working people,"
Having made Ii clear that the
debt is actually being paid off with |
these various sums, he insists that
the people OF Great Britain and Ire.
] nd should have such relief from
taxes as would give them a free |
breakfast table, viz:
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1884-06-11

powers will be invented that Will
need little force as a foundation of
force. He points out what all tariff
reformers here continually preach
in saying:
"Well, a tax on tea is, in parity
of experience, tax on trade, espe-
cially on the textile trades. Repeal
the duty on tea, and at once you ex-
tend the consumption Of tea, and at
the same time you enlarge the sale
of all those products Of industry
which pay for our imports. Surely,
trade makes trade. Repeal the tax
on currants, for example, also, and
at once you have vast extension
of trade with Greece and with the
Levant."
This Argument no doubtwill have
a very foIci effect, for no one
knows the truth of il better than
! those who create English industry
and commerce.
! There is one more remarkable
statement in Sir Edwards second
letter which l must give in foil. He
says:
"Joseph Hume contented, and, as
L think, rightly, that to take out Of
the national capital money yielding
in active operation 5 or 6 per cent,
In order to pay off debt a. thres per
cent, was a folly and waste.
"But let US assume that, not of
right, but for peace and quietness,
and to please the grand old man.
we say, Well, hang it, pay off this
debt
"rhen how?
"Take it for granted that the
Northcote Q875) Childers (1Ss3)
idea is to pay off, in one form or
another, from $1,000. coo to 10000
600, or sometimes e15. 100000 a year,
out Of taxes raised upon consumable
articles, the object being to get rid
of the Cebt In 100 years. Well, Mr..
Hardy, the great actuary, tells me
that an additional amount Of inter-
est of e1.620. 900 a year will. by the
end Of so years, entirely obliterate
$1,000. 900 of debt.
"If, then, we do agree to pay off
the debt at all, let 1t kill itself in
this way, instead of being killed
ourselves-paying every one hereby
the full equation Of perpetuity as
against years-in additional interest,
or in so much more stock, or leaving
every investor as ne is. but putting
by for him his share of the overplus,
SO that his claim bs met 80 years
hence. We rob no one; we disturb
nothing; and we enable vast and
immediate reduction in the vital |
burdens now resting heavily on the |
people"
The reader will, [ h0re, be able to |
form a correct idea OF the really |
bold attempt of Sir Edward Watkin |
to relieve his countrymeD, and |
the poorer classes, of the
burden of taxation, while we con.
slider it a step to ruin if relief Of 20 |
per cent. on our war taxes be advos
Gated. In justice, however, to Mr..
Gladstone, 1t should be said that q
man in power is truly weighed
down with grave responsibilities
which the man not in power does
not feel. Sir Edward, if Chancel~
lor Of the Exchequer, would hardly
go the whole length he so forcibly
proposes. But the practical good
sense of Englishmen will no doubt
see the force OF his suggestions, and
gradually carry ont the relief which
he PROPOSES. J. S. MOORE
