Taxation of Banks.

A Washington dispatch says "The
complaints of tax discrimination against
national banks under state laws have be-
come widespread, and the attention of the
comptroller of the currency has been called
to dispatch from Chicago stating that a
committee had been appointed to investi-
gate the law and facts bearing upon the
complaints, the Chicago bankers to Join
those of New York and Boston in the in
quiry. The comptroller said that there is
no doubt that the laws in many of the states
imposing a tax on capital invested in
national bank shares are so drawn that
capital so invested pays a higher tax than
capital invested in other joint stock enter
prises or other personal property. This is
in direct conflict with the law of congress,
which provides that the legislature of each
state may impose tax upon capital in
vested in national bank stock under certain
conditions, one of which is that the tax
alton shall not be at a greater rate than as
sessed upon other moneyed capital in the
hands of individual citizens of such state.
Mr.. Cannon says that it is very difficult to
enact law taxing national bank shares and
other personal property without injustice to
capital invested in the bank. The princi-
pal reason for this is that the holders of
national bank shares are publicly known,
the stock easily located and the tax readily
collected. Mr.. Cannon will treat the sub
ject of state taxation of national banks at
~ iopoiu'
which national banks can secure from the
collection of excessive tax under state laws
is indicated in decision of the supreme
court of Pennsylvania, where, in the case of
Boyer Us. Boyer the following language was
used: AS substantial equality is attainable
and is required by the supreme law of the
land in respect of state taxation of national
bank shares, when the inequality is so
palpable as to show that the discrimination
against capital invested in such shares is
serious, the courts have no discretion but to
interfere' -

The New Exposition.

A New Orleans letter says: "The open
ing, last week Tuesday was in every way a
success. Music hall was filled to its utmost
capacity; it is seated for 1900. The speak
ing was sensible, and, tell it not in the Gath
of the stalwart, fossilized republicans, a
colored man was among the speakers, fol-
lowing the democratic Governor McHenry
and the Mexican minister. There were
fully 10000 people on the grounds and as
many more in the streets who did not come
to the exposition, which your readers must
bear in mind is five miles from the city. 1t was
a New Orleans crowd. Last winter the city
people did not turn out very well. The at
tendance since that day has been light, for
the exhibits are far from being in place; in
deed, December will dawn before they are
all ready. But when your New England
school-ma'a ans come down here, about the
holiday time, as they did last year, they
will find things ready, and not in that con-
fusion of chaos which they found then. The
grounds are beautiful the lawns green and
well-kept, fountains at play, soda-water and
ice-cream in full blast, while horticultural
hall is tropical cline in miniature and
will prove one of the most attractive fea-
lures of the exposition. Last year it was
merely room for fruit displays. The sew
eral states will not, perhaps, make as striking
displays as last year, but quite as instruc-
tive ones-in some cases better, notably
Louisiana, Texas, Kentucky, Illinois, Iowa,
perhaps California and some of the terri
tories. We expect some of the New En-
gland states will outstrip their former dis
plays"

A Sensible View.

Eyery Other Saturday, in its issue Of this
week, makes the following sensible COM
ment upon the outlook: "Those terrible in
fants, Senator Evarts of New York, Senator
Sherman of Ohio and Senator Hoar of
Massachusetts, will keep on using language
in their public utterances which Is calcu-
lated to irritate the southern heart; and Par
son Hale of Boston has got himself into a
position to be forgiven three different times
by leading journal for similar indiscre-
tons. The questions are asked with an air
and vigorously pushed: What was the use
of the civil war, IL we are not now to have
peace? What was the object in restoring
the Union, IL each state is not to be per-
mitted to manage its own affairs in its own
way? And, on the other hand, What was
the use in comforting the ballot upon the
colored brother, If he were to be at once
practically denied the liberty to use it2
Why should the legislation of the country
be shaped by men who VIGOROUSLY do not
represent their constituents? Finally, What
is the practical sense in all this bother about
matters clearly beyond our control? These
are the puZZing questions with which the
distinguished men aforementioned are
wrestling with great vigor and animation,
and are subjecting themselves to much criti-
cal examination by some who think they
know all about it, and by others who con-
tent themselves with sarcastic denuncia-
tons of our leading statesmen. The course
of the latter may be a mistaken one; but it
is in the line of justice, humanity and an
elevated craftsmanship which can afford to
look down with something like contempt
upon the mean fiunkeyism that would, for
the sake of peace and quiet, condone the
greatest outrages of the age, and sanction by
silence the doctrine that eXpediency is the
grand and only criterion in affairs of state"

The Soldiers Home.

The trustees of the Soldiers Home met in
Montpelier yesterday. p. p. Pitl<in of Mont
pelier was chosen temporary president and
A. B. Valentine of Bennington temporary
secretary, Mr.. Valentine reported that a
committee was appointed at Rutland last
January, consisting of Warren Gibbs,
George II. Childs and William Wells to
draft and report bylaws; that on their way
to the meeting Redfield Proctor and himself
went to st. Adams and had an interview
with the committee; and that it was de-
clded best to have meeting of the trustees,
to be held at Burlington in January next,
when the committee would be ready to re-
port bylaws. This request was signed by
all the trustees present, and no further
action was taken except to exchange views
on the war claim against the general gov
eminent. 1t was the unanimous desire of
all present that the agent representing the
state should be discharged, and that the
trustees should complete their organization
as soon as may be.
Waterbury and Barre presented requests
to have the Soldiers Home established in
their towns.
Hugh Henry of Chester was prevented
from attending the meeting on account of
sickness, and Julius j. Estey of Brattleboro
was in Chicago. A letter was read from
Hon. Frederick Billings, saying that he was
in New York and unable to attend, and from
Hon. Josiah circuit, stating that he was un-
dDlC W duutIltt lulS iuettluS. NOlDntl ILSUey,
in his letter, hoped that some steps would
be taken Immediately in regard to securing
the passage of the bill by congress to refund
to the states the amount of tax each state
has paid to the general government, or some
portion of it; and to withdraw the power OF
attorney from the agent in Washington.
The following is the call for the meeting in
Burlington:
The trustees of the Soldiers Home in
Vermont are notified to meet at Burlington
on the - day of January, 1886, immedi.
ately after the meeting of the Vermont OF.
ficers' Reunion Society. The committee on
bylaws will report at that time, and it is
expected that the board will be organized
and other important business transacted.
Proposals are requested from any COM
munity and all individuals DESTROYS of Sc
curing the location of the Home. Any per-
sons willing to contribute toward building
and maintaining Home are also requested
to inform the secretary, G. G. Kinsnan OF
Rutland.
The need of Soldiers Home in Vermont
is apparent to all, and, were it established
it would be fully occupied. 1t is important
that it be placed on firm financial basis
and, with this end in view, the appeal il
made to those who sympathize with the
project to give it their aid. Little can be
done with the amount now at the dispose
of the state.
