Who Pay the Tax?

Mr.. Mckinley, in recent speech, explained
and defended the theory of the present tariff
law by saying, in effect, that the Government,
to carry on its work, has to raise revenue, and
that since there is ''no considerable sentiment
among the people of the United States in
favor of raising $360,000,000 by a system of d.
rect taxation" the only way open to the Gov
ernment is to adopt "that other form of tax
alton commonly called tariff taxation" This
latter form of taxation he defines as consist
ing in taking somebody else's property
rather than our own-that is, taxing the
property of other nations seeking a market in
the United States"
The purpose of statement of this kind is
to insinuate that other nations in some way
pay the tax from which the revenue of our
Government is derived. The statement is
simply dishonest, and the insinuation is ut
terly misleading The Government of the
United States can impose no tax either di-
rectly or indirectly-either by tariff or in any
other way-on the property of another nation.
The tax, the proceeds of which constitute the
revenue of the Government, is imposed solely
upon American property, and is wholly paid
by the American people.
Before an American importer pays one dollar
of tax or duty at any custom house in the
United States, he has previously purchased
and become the owner of the property on
which he pays such duty. All of the $780,
600, 900 which the Government requires as
revenue is raised by taxing property, which,
though produced abroad, the American
people have needed so much, or desired SO
much, that they have paid the foreign manu-
facturers' prices and the cost of transporta-
ton to make it theirs; SO that MIR. Mckinley
is altogether wrong in saying that the revenue
of the Government is obtained by 'taxing
somebody else's property rather than our
own"
If Mr. McKinley's theory were correct, how
could he defend the free-sugar clause of his
own bill? By far the largest proportion of
the sugar consumed in this country has been
and is imported from other countries From
these imports, until recently, the Government
derived a yearly revenue of about S60,000,000.
But according to Mr.. Mckinley, the nations
who exported the sugar paid these 100000 900.
The effect of the free-sugar clause of his bill,
therefore, is to make free gift of that large
amount to those nations while taxing our own
people $l2,0O0,000 year for sugar bounties
: to enable US TO make the arrangement All
this, however, is very absurd. Mr.. McKinley's
own bill proves his theory untenable. The
American people alone have to bear the
burden of tariff taxation so far as paying is
concerned.
