1t would seem to be tolerably clear that
if the government had granted So, 500, 900
on the condition that the fair be closed
Sunday, and the managers had accepted
it, the government would have the right
either to demand the return of the
money or the closing of the fair. But it
is replied to this that the government
broke its contract by holding back $780,
900 of the appropriation to meet ex-
penses connected with the awards. 1t is
further argued that such a contract on
the part of the government was illegal,
inasmuch ssas it was in the nature of a
bride to induce the managers to do what
the government could not compel them
to do. Of course these are all legal
questions, and the only place to settle
them is in the courts. Nevertheless it
will probably strike the average man
that if the fair is to be opened Sunday
SO much of the appropriation as the fair
received should be returned. With this
returned it is difficult to see what power
the general government would have to
interfere. M

CoNCERNING AN INCOME TAX.

The Philadelphia Ledger denies on
authority that the President has con-
Guided to recommend an income tax
1t says, however, that many Western
and Southern men have urged the Presi-
dent to recommend such tax, but he
has committed himself neither
for nor against it.
There is no manner of doubt but an
income tax would be popular among
certain classes. The extreme free trad
ers, like Roger @. Mills, would favor
it. Indeed Mr.. Mills some years
ago publicly declared for Stree trade
and an income taxi The Populists of
the West would favor it also, in the
expectation that it would compel the
rich to bear large part of the taxation.
Of course the Populists and men of their
belief would want small incomes ex-
empted and the tax imposed exclu-
sively on incomes above $4,000 or $780,
900. But beyond few idealists and
people imbued with the populistic no.
ton that rich men are enemies of the
masses and ought to be fined for being
rich, the number of people that would
look with favor upon it would not be
large. We once had an income tax, and
it is only the truth to say that it was a
very unpopular tax. 1t was so unpopu-
lar that though the government was
hard pushed for sources of revenue and
needed the money derived from it the tax
was soon repealed. If in time of great
exigency the people would not sustain it,
that they will sustain it when there is NO
EFFICIENCY at all is highly improbable.
If it was laid on small incomes it would
surely be unpopular. If twas confined
to large incomes. of course there would
be less general opposition, but that
would be obviously unequal taxation,
which would certainly be unjust.
The collection of an income tax would
of course require large number of Fed
eral agents, and their operations would
inevitably prove very obnoxious to the
people. Their duty would require them
to pry into peoples affairs with a view
to ascertaining their incomes, and it is
very certain that many of their methods
would be inquisitorial and intensely disa-
greeable to say the least. The local tax
gatherer is not very agreeable person
age in his oficialicapacity, but it is much
easier to tolerate him inasmuch as the
people from whom he collects the money
have pretty direct control over its assess
ment and expenditure, while in the case
of the federal taxgatherer their control
would be far more indirect and much
less complete. Indirect taxes are always
easier to collect and much less disagreed.
BILE than direct; and both government
and people will fare better while the
main dependence is on the former.

The steamship service between Bangor
and New York, which was suspended
some time ago, is to be resumed. A new
and strong corporation has secured con-
troll of the Maine Steamship Co., which
runs the steamers Manhattan and Cot
tage City between Portland and New
York, and will add other steamers to the
fleet for the purpose of affording regular
and adequate service between New York
and Maine ports, and one of the largest
and best of the steamers is to run to
Bangor, making weekly trips. It is ex-
pected that the first trip to Bangor will
be made about the middle of June.

this country, but have failed to register,
but will use what funds remain Of the
appropriation to deport Chinese who
have struggled themselves into this
country under false pretentes, and who
Irrespective of this law, have no right to
be here. There are considerable many
of this class and against their removal
no valid legal or moral objection can be
raised. They came here in violation of
law, well knowing the consequences if
they were detected. If they suffer those
consequences they have no right to COM
plain. Their case is altogether different
from that of the Chinese who are here

The Federal government has no au-
thority to order the closing of the
Worlds Fair on Sunday on any general
ground. The fair is entirely within the
territory of the State of Illinois, and
tho general government has no more
jurisdiction over it than over the wild
West show or the theatres of Chicago.
The State of Illinois could pass a valid
law to close it, but the Federal govern
ment cannot. Any power that the Fed
eral government has over the Sunday
opening of the fair comes from a con-
tract between it and the managers of the
fair, by which, it is alleged, they agreed
to close it in consideration of 81. 500. 900,

THE PRESS.
SATURDAY, MAY q,

It would have been we'll for the Rock
land Opinion before commenting upon
4 the Harper case and Mr.. Russelrs absence
when the case was called for trial to have
ascertained some of the facts. AS re-
suit of not doing so the comments which
it INDUCES in this week are absolutely
absurd. 1t was the discrepancy between
the names marked on the check list and
the number of votes declared that inn
plicated Mr.. Harper. Mr.. Russell never
made any statement that implicated any
body in particular. He simply said
that more ballots were returned than
could have been returned if the number
thrown had correspondent to Harper's
declaration, and showed the check list
with so less names checked on it than
the number of votes which Harper had
officially declared were in the box.
