SYSTEM VS.. IRREGULARITY.

WE observe that nm attempt IL being
made by persons associated with the
city government TO resurrect the pro-
position TO rename the streets Of Salt
Lake. Those who are pushing this
question ought to be able to show n
little more originality. The same sub.
leet was considered and freely agita,ed
by the Council that preceded the pres
ent municipal body, but 1t fell Hat,
having received little or no popular
support. We have no idea that the
proposal has any more public strength
behind II than It had then. In add.
ton TO the lack Of originality the re.
suscitstion OF this question shows, It
suggests that those who are pushing 1t
might engage their attention upon
something IN ore profitable.
II 10 to be hol ed that the committee
who arc 10 be entrusted with the con.
sideration Of tho proposed change Will
weigh the subject properly, with u
view to the public convenience. We
do not believe the public good would
be subserved by such an alteration rs
the one suggested, because radical
changes, breaking into n simple and
easily understood system, would in.
evitably lead TO confusion. This Il the
only city OF considerable dimensions

Incidentally the subjects OF dress

equal pay for men and women for
equal work, equal suffrage, and equal

As TO an Income Tax.

representative Scott WilKe, of IIli-
nois, who was defeated for re-nomina-
ton, when questioned as to the posi-
bility of an extra session of congress,
made some remarks about an income
tax worthy of consideration. He said:
81 know what I would do if I had full
power. would pass an income tax
bill. I had such bill in the last House,
but am not sure that I will call it up
again this session. In 1856 this govern
ment raised $72, 900, 900 of a revenue
from an income tax, and over one-half
that amount came from incomes of over
$4,000. My idea of an income tax
would practically exempt the masses,
as L would not tax incomes below
$1,000. The great objection to an in
come tax is that it is inquisitoral. But
to me seems not more 80 than the ordi-
nary state tax. I like the income tax
system of England which has been in
vogue for ifty-one years, and success
fully, too. In England the manner of
levying this tax on corporations is to
first collect it from the net earnings of
the company before any dividends are
declared and let the company in turn
apportion the tax among the stock
holders. Under an income tax law.
such as I would levy, there would be
no multi-millionaires in this country,
Under graduated income tax would
raise the levy so high on large incomes
that it would practically be impossible
for man to acquire more than a mil
iioE dollars worth of wealth at the out
side. National Economist.
