A published official table Of the net
receipts of Internal Revenue tax by
States and territories for the fiscal year
ending June 30th, 1883, upon the items
Of spirits, tobacco and fermentcd liquors,
shows that s74, 343, 20i have been col
lect.d from spirits Al, 10000 from
tuhacco, and Sl6, 637, jS2 from fermented
liquors, total, Sl32, 76l, 4S3
As the surplus revenue in the treas
ury is in round numbers Sl33, 600, 900, it
viii W. seen thar these collected taxes
referred TO, about equals the surplus. 1t
has been proposed in Congress to abolish
the Internal Revenue Taxation system,
| though the proposition meets with a
strong opposition from Senators and
Representatives Of both Parties So far
i, has not been made "a party question,
and neither from its nature is it likely
10 become partisan, yet it cannot be
denied that the repeal Of the entire sys-
TEN would be short cut to protection,
| for without the income derived from
| these sources II would b. necessary TO
keep up the present protective duties
| on imports.
1t cannot be denied that there is a
very strong desire on the part of the
people to abolish the entire internal
revenue system, and 10 relegate the au-
thority TO collect this tax 10 the
States where the money is the most
needed.
The Reading, Pa, Times in review
ing this question, thinks, and that not
without reason, that il this were done
the State Legislatures, by the enact
ment Of proper laws, could in their turn
relcgate the levy and collection OF tax
upon liquors and tobacco 10 the city,
borough and township authorities, and
in this way Tighten the burdens Of local
taxation upon real estate and personal
property, which is now very uneFous.
The question at local option and the
regulation Of the liquor traffic would
then be brought fairly and squarcly
before the people of the annual local
municipal sIEing election Instead of
being mixed mp with political
ttIIEli4H IN lllf lhii ttlltt>tN. iit tlEu-
ment of the Times looks feasible and
plausible, and yet there are objections
10 the plan which, il adopted, might
render it useless
Ii the question WIS left with the
local State, county, city or township
governments, sOme communities would
levy a tax, aud some would not. In
all probability there art Irw conmu-
mites that would levy tax, especially
upon tobacco, and the general expert
ence is that people are growing about
As fond OF their beer H. they are OF their
tobacco. Could the plan be carried out
II would relieve the taxation OF person
al property and real estate, and in this
respect it commends itself tavorahly tol

In a recent interview Chairman Bar
mum said he did not believe Mr.. C1eye-
land would decide upon the personnel
Of his cabinet until his resignation as
governor. Asked about the indepen-
dents, he said it was not known whether
they want anything from the democrats,
but that a very kind feeling was enter
tanned toWard them. Southern demo-
Gratis, in common with every other in
terest, will receive recognition. He
thought there would be enough good,
competent democrats TO fill all the offices
made vacant by the change. Many of
the department clerks at Washington
would likely be retained. He did not
think any change would be made In the
tariff at this session of congress. He
could not see what steel and iron anu
facturers had to fear from a reduction
Of the tariff, an opinion of some signiti-
canoe in view of his large iron interests.
He felt assured that whatever efforts
might ultimately be made to tighten
the burdens Of taxation would not III
in the sweeping reductions upon which
republican orators delighted to dwell.
The river press. [volume] (Fort Benton, Mont.) 1880-current, 1884-12-31

WE rise to inquire what has been done
III regard to the Touring mill project.
A citizens meeting vas held, a reason
able degree of enthusiasm manifested,
committees appointed, etc.-and is this
to be the last Of it? The RIVER PRESS
hopes not. There is too much at stake.
The Touring mill project is of vital i'm
%portance to our town and we hope to see
such action taken as will assure the con-
struction of a mill next season. Our
merchants and others interested in Fort
Benton cannot afford to let the matter
go by default, and this is the very time
to perfect arrangements for carrying the
scheme through. If our citizens will
stop a moment to think of the impor-
lance of this enterprise to Benton and
the surrounding country they ought not
hesitate about doing all in their pow
er to secure a Touring mill.
