Direct Taxation Is a Tax.

The tariff is a tax" That il q
familiar froe trade cry. Few stop
to think of how the revenues Of q
country must bo raised if the tariff
is reduced or abolished. The only
way possible is by direct taxation.
In European countries, where the
tariff is not SO high ss in the Unite d
States, every species OF direct tax
alton has to be rssorted to in order
to rsise the necessary revenue for
the enormous expenditures to sus,
tain royalty ard standing armies.
A reader of The Press recently re-
turned from Austria comes back
wish tale Of WOO about taxation.
This gentleman, by the way, went
abroad thoroughly tinctured with
free trade, but he comes back with .
deliberate request that The Press
expose the Infamous system of direct
taxation in vogue in Austria.
"Go into a telegraph office," he
rays, "and you see the cost of tele,
graphing is so much per word. You
write out your dispatch carefully,
count the words and hand over the
amount The clerk looks it over and
says, half or o third more
What for eIclaims the traveller
Imperial tax stamp. " Nearly
everything is taxed. Every copy ot
q newspaper is obliged to have an i'm
perial stamp upon it.
But this is not the worst of it
While in Vienna the gentleman had
The Press sent to him, and was as
tonished that in addition to the reg
ular postage, which of course, was
prepaid at the New York Office, he
was compelled to pay small sum-
cent, or possibly Lesson every
copy that reached him.
How would the people of the
United States like a fiscal system
that thus puts a direct tax upor
every newspaper they read in addi
tion to the publishers price, and s
tax on every telegram sent in addi
ton to the cost of transmission, /,
system that which, in short, is s,
obnoxious that it irritatss and annoy
you in every action of lifei 1t woulc
not suit Americans.

these entered. The policeman step,

NEWS FROM ROME.


Now Era of Prosperity for Italy-Tho
Popo's Health Good.
RoME, Nov. G.-@The news from Paris
that the council OF ministers has decd.
cd to abolish the diiierential duties now
levied in France against Italian prod.
ucts has given the greatest satisfaction
to the people OF Italy.
Tho importance Of this measure to the
agriculiurists OF Italy can hardly be
over-estimated. France had been for
many years their chief customer, until
the beginning OF the tariff Wal which
is now to cease. and the sudden closing
OF her market, especially to Italian
wines, added seriously to the crisis that
have produced so much misery during
the past few years. With n ready mar
kct for this enormous crop, and with
crops OF cereals, considerable above the
average, Italy ought during the coming
year TO enter upon a new period OF pros.
pcrity.
The health OF the Pope continues to
be excellent, and notwithstanding his
eighty-four years, seems to be asfiourish-
ing rs for a long time past.
He feels keenly the situation in
which he has been placed by the I'm.
fortunate incident OF the Pantheon, but
there is no truth whatever in the
rumored intention of quitting Rome.
Much disappointment has been felt in
Vatican financial circles attheextremeiy
meagre result OF the offerings Of Peters
Pence from England, the amount being
only about $500 sterling.

4 Monument orthc Boom.

The destruction by fire OF the Iuray
Inn removes II OF the costly monu-
ments OF the late boom in the Valley OF
Virginia. Handsome hotels, costing
100000 or more, have been q feature OF
these boom movements. They have
been built in cornliclds to stimulate
the sale OF lots, and they have supplied
the beautiful valley with such hotel ac-
commodations as are not to be found in
Nirginia's chief cities.
The Luray Inn is said to have cost
$l25,Oo0 and to have been insured for
100000. The probability is that it
never will perform the phoenix act. At
this stage of the proceedings 100000 in
hand is likely to be more highly es-
tccmed by the boomers than a hand
some inn.

They viii Mourn Some More.

S'fah, A'h's
The strike in tho st. Louis Stamping
Works having been settled, tho Welsh
tin plate contingent in this country
will be deprived OF one OF its texts for a
great deal OF fine writing.
A strike against manufacturers Of
American tin plate has beed discussed
by American free traders as showing mr.
unusually vicious spirit on the part OF
the manufacturers. From which they
inferred something Inherently bad in
American tin plate.
Welsh tin plate they apostrophise
ne something altogether lovely and OF
good report, going about over the face
OF the earth seeking where it may do
good, turning to the United States with
a particularly benevolent y%earning, as
the sewing circle turns It's tenderest
side to the. heather OF Timbuctoo.
In settling the strike the Messrs.
Neidringhaus have unsettled the free
traders and must expect them to be
very miserable creatures until they can
find something from which they may
extract the happiness Of a greater
misery.

The Flarc.up I'm Brazil.

To understand what is going.on in
Brazil we may put it this way: Presl-
dent Harrison, objecting TO the course
OF Congress, informs the lawmakers
that he will have no moro OF their in
terierance and sends them home. To
strengthen his hand he orders tho
troops under arms, has his agents stir
the people up 10 revolt SO that his
troops may shoot down enough OF them
to inspire the res. with fear, has some
more friends enact the "thrice upon
the Lupercal' scene, finally yields to
their superior judgement and declares
himself dictator-ali in the interest OF
the public welfare.
In this republic this would be thought
an irregular proceeding, and the Presi-
dent would find some powerful and de-
cisive opposition to the scheme. In the
republic OF Brazil it is not so. The die.
tatorship has been declared and we are
told that peace has been restored. The
South American conception OF 4 repub-
lie is somewhat different from ours.

the professor OF the university, which,
ii successfully carried out, will be OF
great benefit to the people OF the state.
Tho details Of the plan have not yet
been announced to the public, but the
main feature is known to be q series Of
lectures TO he delivered throughout the
state by the different professors. Each
will choose subjects having u direct con.
nection with his special work. The Ice

SO that all may be able to understand
and derive benefit from them. The OBJ
Ject will be TO popu!arize the sciences

This will not only be OF direct benefit
to the people Of the state, but will also
do what is much needed in the way OF
