AN INCREASED WHISKY TAX.

Some Democratic tariff reformers are
talking about raising $40, 900 more rev.
enue by increasing the tax on whisky.
This would probably not prove a pt actical
expedient. Experience taught France
and taught our government under the
presidency of Andrew Johnson the fulfil
ity of an excessive tax. France once
placed an enormous duty on certain arti-
cles, and the result was that smuggling
frightfully increased and the governments
net revenue from the customs decreased.
Why? Because the duty was so excessive
that it amounted practically TO offering a
premium for smuggling, it was a bid for
crime. A moderate duty could have been
collected, but when the duty was so great
officers were enormous. why then the
whole people turned smugglers, because
they were tempted to take extraordinary
risks for the chance of extraordinary
profits. If ten contraband cargoes were
seized four lucky trips would still leave a
handsome profit.
So in lS66-67 when we taxed whisky s.
gallon everybody turned whisky thief
because the profits of evasion of the duty
and outwitting the revenue officers were
so enormous as TO tempt people to lawless-
ness. The excessive tax that was intended
TO give the government an enormous reye-
nue. failed OF its purpose. The revenue
expenses were enormously increased but
the net revenue fell off greatly and Illicit
whisky multiplied all over the land. The
government cried halt; dropped the tax
at first to 80 cents per gallon: the revenue
increased and Illicit whisky decreased.
Why? Because thousands of men who
would turn whisky thief when every gal
Ion of contraband marketed saved 81 tax
would not take the same risk TO reputation
and liberty when the tax was 80 cents per
gallon.

TO REDUCE PENSIONS.

There il to be a general movement on
the part of the triumphant Democracy
when the Fifty-third congress meets to re-
duce the pension rolls. The New Orleans
Times Democrat says:
Are the Democrats 40 much afraid of the
soldier vote that they dare not cut off an
annual expenditure of s3o,000000 or $40, goo 900,
which goes TO fraudulent inyaiids ana blackleg
pension attorneys and bogus veteransf
The above statement that nearly one
third of all the money expended for PEN
sions goes into fraudulent hands is a base
less libel on the Union veterans of the war
of the rebellion. Such a charge should be
accompanied by "a bill of particulars" in
the shape of list of fraudulent pensions;
otherwise it is nothing better than a brutal
political SANDER of class OF worthy and
honorable men. If the Democrats desire
TO repeal the pension laws after March 4.
very we'll. but they cannot truthfully do it
on the ground OF fraud as basis for the
repeal. The same congress that threatens
TO reduce the pension roll promises 10 in-
crease the number of Southern war claims
sent to the courts for q hearing. The
Macon, Ga. Telegraph also attacks the PEN
sion roll as follows: Perhaps IS much as
S35 900, 900 is every year transferred from
the South TO other sections through the
operations OF the pension laws-that vast
sum being subtrac;ed from every years
earnings of its impoverished people"

A WARNING TO THE DEMOCRACY.

The New York Times warns the Democ-
racy that it would not be logical ito give
the manufacturer free raw material and
to retain the high duties on goods that
compete with his products. Nor would
such legislation be satisfactory to great
majority of the people. Some of the
duties on manufactured goods are no pro-
hibitory; they would be more so, if that
were possible, if the raw materials should
be put on the free list. Other duties on
goods. while not prohibitory. are very
burdensome; they would become greater
burden. and might become prohibitory if
the raw materials should be made free
and il they should at the same time I'M
dergo no change. If congress at
an extra session should cut off SIS, 900, 600
or so, 900, 600 of revenue by removing the
duties on raw materials, and should also
cause further reduction of revenue by
failing to reduce duties on the manufact-
ured goods, it would not only act unwisely
with respect to the question of revenue,
but would also expose itself to the charge
that it had iegisIated for the benefit Of the
manufacturer and had forgotten the con-
sumner. Our correspondent should know
that this policy would excite great indig-
nation in the West, if not elsewhere"
