MONTGOMERY, Ala. November 22.-
There was "a Oill introduced in the Leglsla-
ture to-day which is bound to attract a
great deal of attention throughout the
country. If 10 becomes law it will prac-
ttcaUy DO away with the negro vote In Ala
bama.
The bill was introduced by Representa-
tive Brewer, Of Lowudes county, who has
been in the Legislature for fourteen years
and who was State Auditor four years
He is looked upon as the financial au-
thoritv Of the State, and has written q
history of Alabama.
The bin provides that ''all persons whose
State and county taxes as assessed DO not
amount 10 So shall not be required to pay
the same. if it be shown that such person
failed 10 vote at the August ana November
elections of the previous wear.
This is the first attempt in the history OF
Alabama to legisiate against the negro
vote. There are not 20 per cent OF the ne
gro voters who pay taxes exceeding -
year.
The lowest calculation so per cent OF the
negro voters would take advantage OF the
opportunity TO save five dollars.
The negro vote at the last election was
1876. 600. out Of a total Of 100000. 1t can be
seen that the effect Of this bill vii be wide
Those most competent to Judge think 1t

council of this borough held its regular
session last evening, and from the report
made by the treasurer of the borough the
town was found to be in a financial embar-

borough of its financial stringency which,
although not satisfactory one, was the
best council could do in the matter. Fail

He travelled in special car, and wDen

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. November %
An Income tax is the method which Rep
yesentative Wike. of Illinois, advocates 70
meet the deficiency in the treasury which
four years OF Republican misrule and
proiigalitY have created. Mr.. Wike in
trOduCed bill in this Congress TO levy a
tax on all incomes of 5000 a year and
over and he said to-day that would be
the wisest and most just way in
which the Government revenues could
be increased without imposing new bur
Gens on the masses. Mr.. Wike said that
while an income tax was regarded as IN
QuisitOrial 10 was no more so than the pres
ent State law and pointed TO the fact that
i'm England an income tax has been I'M
pOsed for fifty years and was found 10 work
well He declared that under such sys-
TEN as he favored there would be fewer
multi-mNliouaires in the country and also
fewer tramps and paupers. The
men who has the most property
TO protec., and therefore required
and obtained more care from the Govern
ment than those who had little property
should bear a larger share OF the expenses
of the Government than the latter class.
When asked whether Illinois was going
TO have a man in Cleveland'S Cabinet, Mr..
Wike said he did not know but he thought
Col. w. h. Morrison should be made Sec
retary Of the Treasury.
