Tho Income Tax.

II the Democratic leaders include an
income tax in their programme they
will not get through without good
deal Of opposition in their own party.
They are believed to have decided to
try on this policy. The Democratic
Philadelphia Record says:
Impractlcable. undemocratlc and dangerous
Ms would be nu income tax III this country, It
will not lack supporters III Congress: aud this
intiatory formal protest OF the Philadelphia
commercial exchange Is therefore Timely and
suggestive.
The income tax has been imposed just
once in tho history Of this country, and
that was TO raise revenue to save the
Union. When the Democrats were out
OF power with little hope OF getting in
they shouted from every stump against
war taxes, promising to wipe them out
il ever they got the chance.
In this country the whole internal
revenue system represents war taxes;
but tho Democratic party is not wiping
them out now. Not only so, Sut here
ia scheme OF war taxes which Demo-
cratic newspaper OF standing, and n
tariff retormer" at that, chara cterizes
as "imprasticable, undemocratic and
dangerous"
There cannot DO any question as to
who pays the income tax. 1t is certainly
not the foreigner.

In the Articles of Agreement Between
Corbett aud Mitchell.
New YoRK, Nov. 23.-The Herald this
morning says: Several important
changes have been made in the articles
of agreement signed by Corbett and
Mitchell for their coming match before
the Duval Athletic Club, of Jackson
vile, Pla. The clauses relating to the
SMALLEST gloves obtainable" and THE
contest to DO twenty rounds or more,
which appeared in the old articles,
have been stricken out, and the power
to referee has been increased. The
changes had TO be made in order to
have everything satisfactory to the
Florida officials. Corbett has accepted
them, and it is thought Mitchell will
do so through his representatives TO-
day.

Through British Eyes,

No American il taking deeper inter.

British manufacturers in the lead. On
this side oil tho ocean we are told that
they fear tho United states under pol

us to drive them out OF their foreign
markets. Here is q strong light on the
mbiect cast by the Daily Argus, OF Brad

lie industry. The meeting referred to
was held on the sixth OF the present
month:

"to be too extensive all at once" That
would frighten us Americans into try

voices may be shaped by an elastic
con ctence, don't close the mills too
fast, just get the entering wedge in, and
they will see to the rest.
Is it not amazing that there are
American legislators, representing a
great party, willing to make their own
country dance to the British tune?

The experiment OF propelling canal
boat by electricity, made the other day
on the Erie canal, was undertaken with
crude, patched.up outfit that did not
at all suit the experimenters, and yet it
was q success. The governor Of New
York, who has given much attention to
the commercial side OF the problem,
was enthusiastic. but hardly more SO
than engineers who had been invited to
witness the trial.
Under very great disadvantages the
boat moved with a load that almost
dragged her on the bottom, and she
was under such complete control that
she slid gracefully into the locks, to the
delight aud amazement OF the specta-
tors. The trolley did the work, even
under all the disadvantages increasing
the speed OF horse power about 70 per
cent.

4 lovely summer GOWN.

Oneof the most delightful dresses
seen this summer was made entirely
of wide white embroidery, mounted in
tlounces on white muslin foundation
skirt. The bodice, mounted on white
muslin lining, had bretellss made of
the embroidery, let out its full width
in the shoulder, and narrowed at the
belt by plaits. Inside the bretlles a
width Of the embroidery was folded in
each front in surplice folds, opening
wide over a white linen chemisette,
worn with white collar and flat tie Of
white lawn. The belt was width Of
embroidery. Between three specimens
Of the lovely silk ginghams-which
this column commented so highly in
the spring-it would be difficult to
choose, except as the choice was guild
ed by the style of the individual. A
Nile green, with a very yellow tinge,
was dotted and trimmed in white. A
beautiful blue, the tint of the wood yio-
let, was dotted in self color and had q
double berthe. Inc two rufiles were
gathered very full and set on with a
mere edge above the gathering, giving
to them the appearance of being cord
ed on. The third gown was Of deep
blue, with white lace edging on the

We have not decided on any location
