An Income Tax Needed.
From the Atlanta Constitution.

From the Atlanta Constitution
It is plain that, under the new adj
ministration, we cannot materially
reduce the tariff without raising a
revenue from some other source
The best way to do this is to tax
something heretofore untaxed, and
the only thing in sight, of any con-
sequence, is the matter of Incomes
A graded income tax would be the
fairest thing in the world. The big
fortunes built up and protected
under the republican system should
now be made to bear their proper
tionate share of taxation. It is the
height of injustice to make the owner
of a city residence, farm, factory
or store pay heavy tax, while a
millionaire, with his money invested
in stocks and bonds, goes his way
paying comparatively nothing. Let
bonds and other kinds Of property be
placed on an equal footing. If a man
owns 100000 worth of bonds, let
him pay taxes just as the owner of
100000 worth of real estate is COM
peeled to do. Tax his property, and
then tax his income, when it is,
say, $4,000 year and upward
Grade the tax. Make it so much on
an income of $4,000, and so much on
each additional $4,000. The figures
may be changed but this is the prin-
ciple.
It in time to compel the rich non
taxed classes to bear their just share
of the public burden.

The st. Louis Christian Advocate
has this suggestive paragraph:
"In some States, newspapers are
forbidden by law from printing
the details of an execution, and the
proceedings of courts in criminal
cases might also be included in the
prohibition. But better still it would
be, if every citizen would refuse to
subscribe for paper which publish
ed details of revolving crimes. News
papers nowadays are published to
make money, and if the publication
of such matter. as that which often
finds it's way into the public press,
can be made Improbable, publishers
would discontinue it in a single day
BY bringing public opinion to bear
in the matter the evil, so far as re.
CARDS the press, can be slowly, but
surely remied."

The Wilmington Messenger very
sensibly remarks:
"No real democrat will be willing
to accept the platform of either the
populist or the republican. He is
not, cannot be democrat in princi-
pie who favors extreme centralizing
dogmas. It would be as true to call
a federalist a democrat, or Jackson
democrat in the past a John Quincy
Adams Wing. It would be as correct
to say that Henry Clay was demo
crat or that Hamilton advocated the
principles of Thomas Jefferson as to
say that real democrat could favor
the ownership of all the railroads,
steamboats,, telegraph lines and
telephones by the general govern
ment, and also be sort of huge
money lender to tax the people first
heavily to get money to lend to the
people generally. This is a complete
overturning of the whole republican
system and a setting up of paternal-
ism in full blast"

There has of late been a marked
increase in the number of books
treating of the early history of this
country, and particularly of it's west
ern and central portions. For the
young people of the present day this
is a fortunate circumstance. In older
countries. the grandsons do the same
things in the same way that these
were done by the grandfathers; in
this country, three or four genera
tons carry history back to the days
of the pioneers, and it is a matter of
no small difficulty for the youth of
to-day to realize how their grand
fathers lived. The world has moved
81 fast and gone SO far in the last 200
years that the memroy of time when
electric lights were not, when the
railroad and telegraph and steam en-
CINE were yet things of the future, is
rapidly fading away. The young men
and women of to-day should not be
permitted to forget how their fathers
and grandfathers lived, and the pub,
lication of "reminiscences, recalling
the scenes of the olden times, is an
excellent way of reminding them that
during single century it has made
more progress than during the five
that preceded it.
