The Income Tax Again.

Within the past few weeks the
graded income tax, so long and earn
estly advocated in thesec columns, has
come to the front as one of the
most prominent issues of the day.
1t is generally believed that the pres
ident and his cabinet favor such a
tax land it may be that Mr.. Cleveland
will take occasion in an early message
to call the attention of congress to the
matter. AS purely business PROPOSE
ton, no partisan significance should be
attached to it. The question to be con-
sidered is whether graded income tax
is the best and fairest method Of rais-
ing revenue to meet the expenses of the
government.
Instead of considering this tax as an
imposition, why not regard it as dis
tribution of burden which should be
borne by all in proportion to their abil-
ity and the benefits they derive from
the government. We are supposed to
have no privileged classes, and there
grossly inconsistent to exempt the class
best able to pay. On the other hand,
it is only just that the income tax
should not bear upon the poor people
whose incomes are SO small that tax
would cripple their owners and make it
impossible for them to earn an income.
The tax should touch those who can
pay without distress. Such tax would
reach much of the concealed wealth f
the country and people would pay in
proportion to their prosperity.
Under our present system the poor
man who invests in visible property
must bear the burden. A citizen with
So, 900 cottage, farm, store OF factory
frequently pays heavier taxes than a
man next door to him whose wealth is
invested in bonds that yield him an in
come of $4,000.
A graded income tax would correct
these evils, and distribute more justly
the burden of taxation. A tax on in
comes of $1,000 and over, increasing
the percentage on incomes of $4,000
and so on would strike those who are
able to bear it without Inconvenience,
and we could then reduce our tariff to
Tree trade basis, and the government
would raise its necessary revenue with
out taxing the toiling masses into the
mire of poverty.
So much for the Justice of such tax.
1t could he collected. England collects
it. and we can do it. Possibly it would
tempt a few to commit perjury The
penitentiary will stop all that. 1t
would give US far less trouble than the

TIME RIGHTS ALL THINGS.

This country is going through sea-
son of financial travail and uncertainty
that does not speak well for the thirty
years of what might be termed unin-
terrupted republican management of
national affairs.
Every day brings the news of the
closing of some bank, the collapse of
some corporation, or assignment of
some prominent republican politician.
1t is easy to understand that the
false methods of financiering by the re-
publican party has brought things to
the present crisis. The spirit of un-
easiness has been growing among the
people for several years, and that spirit
illuminated in the overwhelming defeat
of that party which has brought about
all our trouble, at the polls in 1892.
The people saw the necessity for a
change of management.
Many of them saw it in 1888; but the
corporations and money interests, the
men who were piling up fortunes by
virtue of the favoritism of the
dominent party, turned loose their
s'barl's' and defeated the will of the
masses and gave the monopolist party
another four years of privileges.
WheE the decided democratic victory
of 1892 swept the land, the protected
pets of republicanism began to read
''the handwriting on the WALL" and
realized that the unsafe, un-American
policy of republicanism was not to be
perpetuated, and they ceased to try and
strengthen their already over worked
credit, knowing that the end must
come.
| The close observer will notice that
most of the financial failures of the
past month have been the result of loss
of confidence in stocks, depreciation in
the values of those things upon which
the Wall Street gamblers depend for
sustenance; trusts were dissolved and
no new ones have been formed; coward
ly, exclusive gold has fed in millions
to other countries where its power is
liable TO be greater in the future than
it will be in Anerica: and the conserv-
alive capitalist has refused to bolster
up the many questionable deals that
we're made in watered stocks of all
kinds.
The outcome of il all will be of vast
benefit to the lard A system OF fin
ances will be established under Grover
Cleveland's administrator on the
basis of conservatism and honesty and
with the end In view of doing the
| greatest good to the greatest number.
Pate,.alism and favoritism will be
banished ant. the cry of the masses
for fair dealing and industrial freedom
will be listened to, to the end that PROS
perity will dwell in the homes of the
toiling millions and fewer men will
Jump from the middle or weii-to-do
class to the upper-tendom of favored
millionaires.
This will not be done in day, but it
will be done in time, and every move
of the great minds who are today con-
fronted with the necessity of decisive
action-forced upon the new admins
tratiOn to embarrass it-makes US more
firm in the belief that in future years
the name of Grover Cleveland will
rank in history along side of Jefferson
and Jackson, Lincoln and Was hington.
