Mr.. Mutd on Tobacco Tax

During the tariff discussion in the
House of Representatives, after the tariff
bill had been returned from, the Senate
our Representative. the IIea Sydney Il
Mudd, who is ever alive 10 the interests
of his constituents was granted time to
to make a powerful argument against
the Senate, amendment affecting the In
tsrnal Revenue Tax on tobacco. Mr.,
Nudd said in part
There is a portion Of this bill which
to the people of my district aud my sec.
ton. is clothed with an importance but
little less than that which attaches tn the
measure at large | allude to the pro-
visions that have reference to the Iuter-
nal Revenue Tax upon tobacco. We
have heard a great deal Of talk during
the present session Of Congress about the
interests and the necessities of the farm
ers of our country. We have gotten very
close to them in sentiment and in the
arena Of debate. We have now an OPP
por:unity to show the sincerity of our
professions in :his regard, and for my
part, propose to show it b. refusing
10 concur in the amendment that looks
20 a reinstatement of the present reye-
nue. tax upon this commodity. There
is no reason for the continuance of this
tax. 1t Ia an onerouS and inquisitorial
burden upon community and upon a
people that are in no condition to bear it,
The provisions of existing law that i'm
poses tax and various arbitrary re-
strictions and regulations upon the grow
er in the disposition of his owu crop.
when and where and in such quantities
as he may see tit, are especially unjust
aud oppressive and ought to be repealed
and the Senate i'll placing itself across
the pathway of this deserved and much
needed relief flies in the face of The best
sentiment of the great majority of the
people OF this country Cherishlng these
views as | do. sir, and looking to the in
terests of the people of my State and the
section Of country from which hail,
and real zng that these interests are I'M
duly Disseminated against by thus bill
as it comes from the Senate, | feel it my
duty to say and | here now declare that
| shall vae for no conference report
upon this mesSure that does not EN-
bruce substantial restoration u the
provisions of the House bill aoon thi,
questions.

The New Law.

The outrageous registration law pass
ed by the Democratic party at the last
session of the Maryland Legislature is
creating wide spread comment because il
DISTINGUISHES citizens 81 the State who are
temporarily away, with their families,
holding Office under the National Gov
eminent. The law is unjust and uncon
stitutional because Of that feature and
will be go decided 1t never would have
been enacted but for the fact that most OF
those away holding government positions
were Republicans. The Washington
Star, an able and conservative paper,
entirely Independent 10 politics has this
TO say IN reference to the law:
"The Maryland registration law dis
franchising, practically. Ma@ylanders
holding efice at the capital OF the repub-
lie is exciting good deal Of interest, and
is to go before the courts of that State
for determination In 1878 the same
question was presented on petition to
Congress from Ohio and other States
aud the matter having been referred in
the House to the judiciary committee it
was decided by that committee that no
protection, as requested, was needed
for the reason that such employees of the
United States had not abandoned their
perm ,nent residence in their respective
State by having accepted temporary SER
vice at the seat Of government The COM
mittce, at their own reque It, were dis
charged and the subject was dropped
thereafter The States have all the rights
over suffrage that have not been taken
away by themselves in their ratification
If the Constitution Of tic United States
aud the amendments thereto. But these
rights surely do not include the disfran-
Alisement by wholesale Of citizens by
reason of their employment in the civil
services Of the United States, and the
sooner the courts establish this fact so
shat it shall not aftcrward be disturbed
the better for all concerned If the
Maryland courts were to decide that the
State could dc-citzcnize her citizens to
thts extent on acjouut Of service under
the general goyelnmeut, the case would
be appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States and would there be decid-
ed the other way As last resort the
disfranchised citizen would have his ap-
peal to, and remedy BY, the State of the
ghion in the adoption Of constitutional
amendment to secure him in the posses
sion of his right Of suffrage. The decis-
ion will, however, probably he made be

The Democrats to defeat the Repuhli
cans introduced the scheme-ef 1885, of
bringing ex-actual resident voters back
to'the county to vote. 1t wcs for lit
tie while, but the Republicans soon learn
ed, the trick and succeeded N routing
the enemy at their OWE game. Now the
Democrats Disguised aud outdone at
their own folly are having recourse to
iniquitous legislation 10 Gisfranchse 70
tiers that they may again win. But their
new idea is even more short-Sighted tina |
the first, and time will prove it Every
voter temporarily who loaes his vote will
hear no good blood for the author of such
legislation, and while he canrot vote
himself will call upon his friends who
can vote TO avenge his wrong.
