TAXATION AND REVENUE.

Governor-elect Mckinley, in recent adj
dress 70 the Home Market Club in fremont
Temple, Boston. advanced. in support of his
protective doctrine, quotation from George
Washington, to the effect that I'VE cannot
have revenue unless we have taxes 8" and from
this he deduced the conclusion that the
Father OF His Country was IA protectionist.
10 interpreting President Washington words
IN this way. however the great champion of
taxing the many for the benefit Of the few was
guilty OF gross piece of characteristic Re-
publican sophistry. He knew perfectly well
that President Washington was discussing the
necessity ofinvesting the General Government
with power 10 levy and collect taxes for Fed
eral uses and that nothing was further from
his mind when he said I'VE cannot have
revenue without having taxes" than meaning
We cannot have revenue without having pro-
lection"
To show how radically different the patri-
otto views of President Washington were
from the partisan and contracted ideas OF the
Mckinley protectionists it is only necessary
10 consider for moment the known sent
ments OF each. The former never in his life
advocated taxing Americans alone for revenua
purposes. All that can be gathered from his
utterances or writings goes TO prove that his
idea OF tariff was that foreign importers
might bear their due share of taxation for the
support Of this Government. Inasmucb ga
they were supposed TO make legitimate profits
on what was bought from them in this
country. and as. therefore, their business
was benefited by dealing with America. il was
considered but fair that they should con- !
tribute. through the tariff, 10 the SUPPORT of /
the country which was so good a customer TO |
Them lie. therefore, instead of favoriug the
out OF imports, rather ENCOURAGED
them that the American people might enioy
the advantages Of purchasing goods from
abroad which they could not get at home. at
reasonable prices. while making it profitable
to importers to ship TO this country and vet
pay fair revenue tax to the Government
Now which do the disciples of McKinleyisn
propose That the American people shall be
LOUDLY taxed-frst. by shutting out and ALSO
utely prohibiting foreign imports. that they
shall pay heavy tax 10 manufacturers and
De forced to use only such shoddy and inferior
'oodsas those manufacturers may see fit to give
hem and next. that through the internal
evenue they shall pay heavy direct tax to tho
government. II is folly for Major Mckinley
o assume that his protective tariff makes
ore'sness pay any considerable part Of our
evenue. since 1t Gu. OF last year ebcu. ss,..

expresses it. McKinleyism means nothing
more nor less thnn delegating the taxing
power to favored few and making it the
business of the Government TO assist these
few in collecting taxes. or tribute. from their
many felow-citizens.
What tho Democrats in Congress will have
mainly TO address themselves to is to doing
away both with the abuses of Mckinleyism
and Of direct taxation. The tariff especially
must be reformed so that the American peo-
pie at large can derive needed benefits from
the foreign markets. while foreign importers
pay their due proportion towards the sup
port OF the Government. and the internal
revenue must also he reformed so rs to be as
little burdensome as possible to the Ameri-
can agriculturist It is such reform in gov
ernmental taxation as this that the country de-
mands. and 1t is upon that issue that the
next presidential battle will be fought and
decided

Among the notable improvements which
have in recent wears been made in the appli-
ances of warfare is the introduction Of smoke
less powder, an invention not likely 10 pro-
duce revolution in the science of war. but
which is certain TO lead 10 important modif-
cations. In the military mannuyres at Cam
bray, France. smokeless powder was the only
powder used. and the test 10 which it was
then subjected proved 10 be very satisfactory.
1t has now been adopted by the French war
department not only on account of the obyi-
Gus advantages attending the absence Of
smoke when the discharges take place. but
also on account of its superior ballistic
qualities.
1t IL. strictly speaking, inaccurate 10 de-
scribe the powder as being smokeless. it being
only approximately so. The smoke from the
firing of single gun is only observable for a
distance Of forty yards. and the smoke from
yolley Of twenty-four guns eighty yards. At
distance OF $50 yards no smoke apparently
attends the discharge Of heavy artillery. Ia
the case of great battle the atmosphere be-
comes freighted with heavy burden of
smoke when ordinary powder is used. but in
the instance Of smokeess powder the air is
charged with filmy vapor which rapidly
disappears as soon as the firing ceases.
Smokeless powder can be used effectively
IN the case of guns planted in battery which
IS so constructed that there is nothing TO ex-
pose its site 20 the field glasses OF the enemy.
and also IN the instance Of several batteries
locally separated from each other. but which |
open fire at the same moment. The conflict |
ing reports Of the explosions would in the |
absence of smoke. render it almost impossible /
to place the guns
Smokeess powder can be used to great ad-
vantage In the instance Of mon concealed be-
hind hedges. or in trenches. or in bodies Of
wood whose object is to throw the ranks of
the approaching enemy into confusion. or TO
repel reconnaissance. Opportunities will
also be created 10y the use of smokeless
powder for misleading the enemy by drawing
him on until his TANKS are exposed. Artil-
cry viii no longer be employed to open an
action, as silence will be most likely to draw
he opposing party into close range.
These are among the most obvious adyan-
ages that will attend the employment of
mokeless powder, and the experiment Of its
Isefulness in actual warfare will probably
how that it has advantages in addition to
hose enumerated

IHR copious extracts which the New York
World Of Monday gives from the novel which
caused the dismissal of Mr.. Bogy. ITS author.
from his clerkship in the Pension Bureau. con-
firm the view already expressed by The TINES
that Raum in deprivlng his subordinate Of
his position was influenced by improper
motives. Mr.. BogY may have written more
plainly than the most sensitive delicscy would
Justify, but so far as can be Judged. his object
was TO inaugurate a reform in the official life
of Washington. That it needs reform in the
directions upon which Mr.. Bogy touches will
not be denied by any one who is familiar with
that life. The social features presented in his
novel are not drawn IN stronger colors than
were employed by Mark Twain in
the "Gilded Age" If anything.
the corruption exposed in the latter
book IS far more nauseous than that brought
TO light in Mr. Bogys pages. We do not be
lieve that the day has yet arrived in America
when an ofiice-holder will be considered by
the public at large to have no right Of free
speech simply because he is the subordinate of
a man like Green b. Raum, who is becoming
more and more notorious for his disregard Of
official morality. Mr.. Bogys book rebukes
vice in high places and upholds virtue in
humble circumstances. and in the light of
this fact he is entitled to praise and not 70
condemnation.

GENERAL.

Mr.. HowELLs, who for several years has
been writing the critical papers which have
been appearing in Harpers Magazine under
the head of the Editors Study" proposes
now 10 retire from the position. he either
desires to devote himself exclusively 10 III.
composition OF novels or he has failed TO give
his employers satisfaction. 1t is not i'm
probably the latter, as he can lay little real
claim 70 critical powers. The only thing that
he has written for the Editors Study
which has made an impression was
his cool remark that Dickens and Thackeray
should now be consigned to limbo as
novelists whose conceptions OF fiction be-
Logged to.an age which would never return.
Howells intimsted pretty plainly that he
thought the methods pursued by himself
were very much superior to the methods of
The authors Of the ''Newcomes" and David
Oopperneld'-a opinion which is only nota-
bic for its extreme assurance. The names of
