The TurncOatS Must Go.

"This is just the class | want to get
after. ! want to put them on the list.
You will do me Il personal favor if you
will get the names of all such men
you discover"
Such were the words of Private Sec
retary Lamont at the White House
when told the other day that large
number of department clerks who
were known before the last change of
administration as. rampant Republi-
cans We're now becoming almost often
sively Democratic.
A turncoat," continued Col. La
mont, is the most obnoxious element
in politics. | despise traitor, an in
CRATE, whether he is in my party or
another"
"If had my way about it," said
Col. John S. Williams, Third Auditor of
the Treasury, in recently discussing
turncoats, q would fire them all out
of Office. A man who will betray
one party will betray another, and
cannot serve faithfully anybody or
anything. / don't object to man
changing his views but l object to an
ofiiceholder reversing his position in
politics so quick that his design is pal
pable."
1t begins to look as though the
army of men who in 1884 fought Mr..
Cleveland at the polls, but who, being
i'll the departments and desiring to re-
tain their places, are showering
praises upon him, would have to go
during the few months which immcd-
lately follow the recent elections.

THERE are belts of pine in Washing
ton Territory which ought to give en-
p.oyment to a good many persons in
the manufacture of pitch and turpen-
tine, and it is surprising that some en-
terprising person has not already TAX
en- hold of it. The dealers in such ar
ticles say the demand for turpentine
is four times as great as it was ten
years ago; and therefore it seems rea-
Sonable to think that it could be made
to pav.-Portland Neus.

( GREAT SPEECH
BY Hon. j. G.. Carlisle at the IrOquOi>
Banquet. held in Chicago.

The first on the list of toasts at this
great banquet was the sentiment :
"Amcrican ndustrics-Thcir growth
and prosperity cannot he promoted by
unnecessary and unequal taxation" "
Hon. John q. Carlisle responded and
in doing so said:
Although the toast just read asserts
Il self-evident truth, we cannot afford
to ignore the fact that even III this age
OF philosophical speculation and prac-
teal knowledge there are men in the
front ranks of literature, politics and
business who seriously contend that
the Government can make its citizens
rich and prosperous by taxing them.
If these gentlemen should attempt to
convince the public that the farmer
could be made more prosperous by in
crcasing the tax on his land, or that
the manufacturer could be benefited
by compelling him to pay high rate
of taxation on his machinery or his in
come, the absurdity Of their position
would be so apparent rs to excite uni
versal ridicule; and yet such PROPOSE
tions would he no more absurd or un-
reasonable than the assertion that the
prosperity of the people generally can
be increased by imposing taxes upon
their food, their clothing, their build
ing materials, their means of transpor-
tation, and the tools and implements
used in their industries.
Taxes do not create wealth: they de-
stroy it. All taxation, whether it be
direct or indirect, and no matter how
it may be disguised or in what man
ner its payment may be inforced, is
ultimately a charge upon labor, while
it's immediate and invariable effect is
to withdraw the full amount of the ex-
action from the productive industries
of the people. When it is equitably
imposed for public purposes only, and
its proceeds honestly used in defraying
the necessary expenses and meeting
the just obligations of the Government,
all are equally benefited, and no one
has right to complain; but when a
tax is imposed upon one part Of the
people or one class OF industries sim
ply for the purpose of increasing the
profits of another part of the people
or another class OF industries, or when
tax is SO laid that its necessary effect
is to increase the profits in some in
dustries at the expense of others equal
ly meritorious, the impolicy and injus-
ticc OF the proceeding are too obvious
to require comment. Absolute equal

THE RATES OF TAXATION

And in the designation of the articles
upon which it shall he imposed is not
to be expected, and, in fact, is not at
tainable; but substantial equality and
uniformity are essential clements in
every just revenue system. So long
as the power of taxation is exercised
only for the purpose Of raising revenue
for the support of the Government
the principles of equality and uniform
ity can he recognized and enforced, in
large degree at least; hut when the
power is perverted and used to Increase
the profits of private individuals and
prevent the collection of revenue by
the Government, it is impossible to
regulate its exercise by any rule oI
principle except favoritism and selfish
ness. In such case equality and uni
formity would necessarily defeat the
primary object Of the tax, because it
is evident that if all We're compelled to
pay equal tribute to each other, no.
body would be benefited; and it is
just as evident that if all do not pay
equal tribute somebody must be cheat
ed.
American industrics-and by this
term l mean to include every honest
and useful occupation-cannot be
promoted by any system of taxation,
or any policy Of legislation, which dis
eliminates between them and compels
one to contribute part of its own
earnings to increase the profits or pre-
vent losses in another. There should
be no expatriated or prosecuted indus.
tries in this country. There should
be no ranks or degrees among the le-
gitimate occupations of the people
nor any road to the favor or bounty OF
the Government not open to all alike

KEEPING BUTTER IN RoLLs.-Mr. I.
S. Gold. who keeps large herd of
cows for the sale of milk, and has a
large family table to supply, has for
many years made his surplus milk into
butter and preserved it in four-pound
rolls wrapped in cloth and immersed
in casks of brine. He thus avoids
overcrowding the milk market in flush
periods, and the purchasing of butter
for family use in the season of high
prices. The wrappers should be well
confined around the rolls to prevent
bits of butter from separating and float
ing on the surface, and the whole must
be kept under brine constantly. for the
smallest pieces exposed would soon spoil
the brine and thus all its contents.
