Who Pays the Taxes?

The able political economists who are
engaged on the Republican press and
stump in trying to make the people be-
lieve that high taxation is the sure road
to wealth, insist that the man who ships
goods from foreign port to the United
States is the man on whom the burden
OF the tariff tax falls, and that he invari-
ably pays that tax. A lettereached this
Office some days ago which asks few
questions which may puzzle those
"learned Tnebans' to answer. The
writer pens his questions from prac.
tical standpoint, and they are SO cogently
put that they expose the fallacy referred
to most luminously:

A Campaign of Lies.

Time and again attention has been
called in these columns to the methods
by which certain Republican papers are
trying to outbelial Belial in their futile
attempts to make the worse appear the
better reason. From the outset the
logic and the facts have been dead
against the monopolistic apologists; and
this disadvantage they have tried to
counteract by resorting to misrepresent-
alton and to downright lying. The cam
paign is called one OF thought and
reason; but certainly our Republican
"'ea's WHY 'N"A' . '' - "a politics do
not greatly contribute to make it so.
Our most highly esteemed contempor-
ary the Eapress, has been among the
most persistent and uncomfortable
offenders in this line. The following
letter, Characteristic as it is OF the
methods referred to, needs no explana-
tory comment:
ton to the text of Mr.. Thurman's letter OF
acceptance, as printed in the Evening Express
of to-day. The following is one sentence, al
given:
I am also strongly impressed with the belize
that his reelection would wonderfully tend tc
| strengthen that feeling of fraternity among the
American people that Is so essential to the
welfare, peace and happiness, and to the per
pc uity OF the Union and our free trade insti
| tutions.
| Now the word 'trdde'' has been inserted
between the words free" and institutions.
The letter as published in the morning paper
did not have it so. This might pass for
! typographical error. but for another chang,
from the original text. Further down il
another sentence as follows:
Much is said about the competition of Amer
lean labo;ers with the pauper labor of Europe
| but does not every man who looks around hin
see and know that an immense majority OF tn
laborers in America are engaged in what ar
called the protected industries?
The word mot has been omitted by tn
Express from between the words ''are' an
engaged" These are hardly mere typograpt
ical errors. The original text seems to hav
been deliberately changed. Could partisa
malice go farther? DEMOCRAT.

OUR luminous evening contemporary is
far beyond it's depth when i: attem pts to
criticize Mr.. Thurman's utterances on
the tariff. That paper tells Mr.. Thurman
that the United States government does
not levy dollar of tax on anything that
q man wears, or that his wife and chill
dren wear. Whenever the government
places tax duty upon any article Of for
eign production 80 per cent. higher than
it can be imported, it enables the home
manufacturer of that article to tax the
consumer in profits up to that point. The
government may not receive the benefit
of the tax it imposes, but the protected
manufacturer does, and that too on the
lying plea that it is to enable him to pay
high wages to his employees, which
he does not pay. Every cent of duty
imposed on such articles over the exact
impost that is sufficient to keep out the
imported article enables the protected
manufacturer to rob the consumer to
that extent. If we are told that domestic
competition keeps down the profits far
below the tax limitation on any given
article, the answer is two-fold. Practi-
cally it is not done. Combines and trusts
rec to that. And, secondly, if it is done,
or can be done, then there is no need for
the high-wster tariff mark.

THE HERALD yesterday startled the
community by stating that Chinese were
carrying dressed hogs from an abattoir in
q cafion near the city, where live hogs
were feeding on the decayed carcases of
horses and COWS. The scene of this pig
gerry was disgusting in the extreme, and
there is reason to believe that pork
from this disease breeding slaughter pen
finds its way into our market. Even if
this pork is fattened only for the con-
sumers Of Chinatown, the fact should be
ascertained and the horrible business
suppressed. If diseased pork should
breed an epidemic amongst the Chinese
in our midst, our own people would not
be safe. The Board OF Health should
look carefully into this matter.

PENDANTS required to answer. The Chief
Justice referred to the charge that the
plaintiff has been refused information as
to the condition of the affairs of the COM
pany, and was of the opinion that he
was entitled to an accounting. Garland, +,
in his answer under oath, denied the
allegations of the bill, and consented to
an accounting by the Executive Commit
tee for all sums realized by Rogers from
sales of stock in violation of the agree
ment. The decision requires that the
defendants shall now answer.

The San Francisco Call has the un-
blushing impudence to tell its patrons
q large percentage of whom are Demo-
crats-that "the only hope the people
have of the enforcement of the Scott
[Exclusion] act is to elect Harrison and
Morton" For cool, brazen, unadulter-
ated efrontery we have seen nothing
during the campaign to come up to this.
What, the only hope to enforce the Ex-
clusion act is to elect the man who
steadily voted in favor of admitting
Chs;iiiese when he was in the Senate, and
who went even so far as to 5ppose the
Farley amendmen... prohibiting the

something like the Missourian who got
to the top of the hill before he saw that
the tailboard OF his wagon had lifted and
let his load Of apples out. That the man
who was the persistent enemy of Chinese
exclusion when his aid was sadly needed,
is better man than Cleveland, who, in
spired the Scott bill, to carry that meas.
ure into effect, is an assumption that
stamps the Call as the most reckless
partisan sheet in Christendom.

The Government Reminded of IL
bad Faith with the Indians.

The Government Reminded of ITS
bad Faith with the Indians.
WASHINGTON, October 15.-The Sioux
chiefs appeared at the Interior Depart
ment to-day. Secretary Villas assured
the Indians that he was glad to see them
and requested them to proceed to state
their objections to the new Sioux reser-
walton.
John Grass said: The first thing l
want to mention is the treaty of 1868,
and | ask you to promptly meet the
obligations of that treaty. Pay us what
lever rightfully belongs to us by this
treaty and then that which belongs to us
by the Black Hills treaty of 1876. Why
is it that we are not paid what is due us
under these treaties?
Grass produced reservation map of
Dakota Territory and pointing out the
Sioux reservation said: Its Western
boundary line should lie a long way west
from the present location. We want
$1.25 per acre, just what the Govern
ment sells its lands for. We are in no
hurry to dispose of our lands. BY the
treaty of 1868 you promised us schools
and teachers for twenty years, and these
twenty years have gone by and we have
had schools only within the last ten
years.
He asked that all the lands of the
reservation be classed as grazing lands.
thus enabling those entitled to 100 acres
to get it. He said instead of the heads
of families getting double the amount of
land given to woman and children, the
latter ought to have fully as much or
more than their fathers. The old men
would soon die and therefore did not
need 80 much land, but the young ones
had their way to make, and would need
all they could get; and then he wanted
it distinctly understood that when young
people married the woman should not
lose her land.
Mad Bear spoke of the failure of the
Government to keep the treaties of 1868
and 1876, and asked how they could be
expected 10 enter into still further agree
ments when the old ones had never been
fulfilled.
White Ghost and Drifting Goose, both
OF Crow Creek, made long speeches in
opposition to the bill, and stated that
treasures had been adopted to frighten
the Indians into signing. Members of
the Commission bad used harsh language
toward the Indians.
When the Indians finished speaking
the Secretary said all the speeches had
been faithfully written down and would
be laid before the President, who would
give faithful consideration to the matter.
Whatever decision was reached, the
Secretary added, would be announced to
them on Wednesday. He hoped they
would at that time be prepared to say
whether they would approve or disap-
prove of the decision which would then
be known.
