Tor reduction of taxation, 10y point

meet the expenses nf government,
The new affection OF the Republicans
Tor The Southern people, Beck be.
liered, was more dangerous than the
policy by which they formerly
lrampled ON ihe rights of those peoplr.

lean party for the white people of the
South was as intense day Us ever,
and this hill WAS the entering wedge
of absolute Federal domination Ia the
southern states. The bill did not,
IN Boek's opinion, express one
half what it meant. The Duuville

enable the Republicans to again raise
The cry OF the bloody shirt and tduca.
ton WAS now deemed the most plnus.
IDLE means Of producing discord and
enabling the Republicans to get rid Of
the surplus in the treasury and keep
taxation up to its highest point. Beck
! then entered upon AN elaborate argu.
ment ON the tariff, in the course
of which he said he would be glad If
both parties hadsquarely shown their
; colors--,he Republicans for protection
and the Democrats for tariff for rev.
enue. The so-called Morrison bill had
; forced the Republicans to
avow that they opposed
any and all reductions, and
would permit no relief to the overbur-
dened tax payers. That bill had AT
last developed the plan of it's
: enemies who now thought
} themselves entrenched with sufficient
safety to warrant defying all enemies
e Beck criticised the action on the tariff
/, OF Sherman, Morrill,, Allison aud
other Republicans. and contended that
the present policy of the Republican
party in opposition to the reduction OF
taxation, when revenue was
9 not necessary, was unconstitutional.
I IL congress would enable the South To
3 buy her cotton machinery free from
tariff taxation, the South could cdu-
j cate her children. He was unwilling
l. TO devote the surplus in the treasury Ia
o educate either the negroes or the
n whites. What he wanted was To re.
l. move burdens from the people of all
Q the states, so that they could attend Ia
ii their own education. Beck thought
: he would vote for fund Ia
y be set apart to sustain an education
. scheme, of u tax OF say > per cent. ol
VI all incomes above $1,000. According
d To the newspapers, Nauderbilt's In
e come would yield TO such u fund as
If much as $40 900. He would tax the
= incomes OF the rich, TO protect whose
n property armies were maintained
II After referring to efforts for education
d made in the state of Mississippi by the
n Republicans in 1859 and 1870, which
% witnesses before an investigating com
d mittee of congress had said had in
d volved more taxes than their cottor
d crop would realize, Beck said h,
ne never trusted men twice. The Re
lie publicans had control of those South
Of ern states once and tn,
" result had been ruin an,
h. bankruptcy. The Democratic part,
le had gotten possession of those states
~ and since that time they had advance
I'd in every way which states could ad

h cans to get their hands on those state
lie any more.
