HINTS FOR LEGISLATORS.
How and Upon What National and
Local Taxes May b. 1t Wed.


Clapp & Co.'s financial circular for
the week ending the 18th inst. gives
the following hints that may be useful
in solving tho complex problem of
national and local taxation:
"Pnvate honor 10 public treasure.
Public treasure may be secured at ex.
pense Of private honor. Honest leg.
isIation may provide honest money or
dishonest men. A liquidated income
dollar when clipped is generally sent
to the mint of muscle for recoinaee.
Constitutional distribution can ONLY
he effected BY constitutions a taxation.
A tax on products in transit for ex-
change falls mainly on desire that ex>
ceeds necessity. Economy is the only
defense against . tax that settles on
price. The man that invents a tax
that will fit bales, banks, bushels,
barrels, bonds, beer and bullion alike
in forty.four States eau be made
American pepe.
"Nearly 100000, 900 tons OF freight
were carried by American railways 10
1892, an average of liz 7O.lOO miles.
The average rate per ton per mile wa.
.976 and produced near SIT OOO,OO
dollars gross revenue. Governme Mt
tax Of one.eighth of one per cent.
equals .125 per ton per mile and
would WELD on last years tonnage
over $10O,000,0C0. One.tenth of o.
per cent. on gross earnings Of all COR
porations engaged in transportation
of pereons Ct things, including gas,
electricity and water, might yield in
tho year 1900 enough to support the
Government.
"National taxes may be levied on
transportation, which both on land
and sea claims the nations right Of
eminent domain through legal titles
originally granted by the nation in
contracts expressed OF implied. The
nation always reserved the right of
taxation. Land values are local crea
tons, and should be subject only to
local, or at most State taxation. Per
sonal property, products Of labcr,
either in use or in process OF xchang-
for use, should not sulfer q direct tax
The ta'ilf is a method of collecti, e
tax on the business Of carrying mer.
chand'se between nations by water
In doing this we discriminate wisely
in favor OF protecting our own indus
tries. Foreign vessels should pay a
tax on merchandise tonnage delivered
free of duties enough to protect Amer
loan vessels"

The House Disposes of the Torrey Bank
ruptcy Bn,-other Business.
WAsHfNoToN, Dec o The Torrey bank
ruptcy bill was strangled unexpectedly by
the house. Colonel Oates, the champion
Of the measure, had declined TO permit
the house 20 vote on his substitute, pro-
viding simply for a voluntary system OF
bankruptcy. whereupon Mr.. Bland pre-
cipitated the entire question by moving 10
strike out the existing clauses OF the Dill.
Vainly the advocates OF the measure
protested that 1t was unfair 10 reject the
bill before the house had chance to per-
feet II by amendment. Their pleadings
were unavailing. The vote was decisive.
1t was carried by majority OF l42 10 Ill.
The vote was not a strict party one. An
analysis shows thai llt Democrats. Is he
pubIicans and nine Popnlists voted to
strike out the enacting clause. and taat 81
Republicans and AZ Democrats voted
against IL.
An attempt TO drive the bill for the adj
mission OF Utah as a state through the
house during the morning hour was de-
feated by a determined filibuster led by
Mr. Dingley. and supported by almost the
entire Republican side. The course of the
Republicans overshadows their policy upon
the admission OF not only Utah, but the
other Democratic territories OF New Mex
leo and Arizona, both OF which have al
ready been favorably reported by the COM
mittee on territories.

AM0NG THE MASSES.
Lecture by Colonel Tsin Of Kentucky at

Colonel Balm of Lexington, KY, lee
tnred at Association hall last night on
tho subject, 4" Among the Masses" He
said:
Memory holds but little OF scenes OF
travel. cannot portray any OF those of
human character that you cannot match
In your own experience. j believe that
men who would obtain the highest condi-
tion should have respect for the opinions
OF other men. They may be right as
we'll as you. IL Gen. Grant had been
rebel general. Why not have considera-
tion for those who, by their different
circumstances. have received opinions
different from ours. We are not to look
at character or opinion from the narrow
standpoint OF our own opinion.
Out OF tho most discordant elements
may come the greatest harmony. 1 believe
in a government by the people, OF the
people and for the people. IL out OF the
smoke OF battle one country prevails over
another that country should pre-
vail. say tonight that
down in the heart of many confederate

acter are suggestive OF great things. /
thank God for them. We strike matches
that illumine the human character and
are surprised at what we discover.
Do you know that we wouldn't run a
peanut stand the way we run city politics?
stand long. We want school of
or4o
and consciences. The republic is
teacher. Every man Is student. We
never reach grade in school where we
are not susceptible to influence. So in
our contact with the nation. We are al
ways subject to influence.
The very tone OF the voice shows the
character. l wonder why parents al
low their children TO grow up with such
dscordant voices.
A little bit OF anger let loose is as
destructive to harmony as fire
to a dry prairie, When we remem-
the touch Of influence how careful we
should be that that influence should be
of the most elevnting kind.
i pay this tribute TO colored mother
hood: Many and many white child
would not be grown to maturity today
had it been dependent upon the care
and attention OF its own mother. The
colored "mammy" has saved many
a child OF her mistress by caring for it
when its own mother could not havel lifted
finger 10 save II from an carly death.
As southern man pay this tribute.
Col. Balm Is a most eloquent and inter-
esting speaker. His lectures are fall LOT in
teresting anecdotes OF men and affairs. He
has an inexhaustible fund OF character
stories and illustrates character Ia beth q
comic and pathetic vein. He speaks
rapidly and fiuently and bis mstapho. IS

ADVENT SERVICES.
ISTEREsTTSG EXERCISES Ar ST.
STEPHENS cHURCH LAST NIGHT
Rev. G. y. Msgiu Preaches an Impress
sive sermon and tho choir Renders
an Excellent Choral Service.

An Advent service with the boy choir
under the auspices OF the brotherhood OF
st. Andrew was held in st. Stephens
church last eyoning. The church was
well filled and the service was
especially interesting. The lesson
was read by Rev. MIR. Cocroft of the
Church OF tho Messiah. The choir
sang tho anthem, ''To God High
Enthroned" (Gounod), and then
Rev. q. ]. Magill preached. The
preacher spoke from the text John
iii, z, "Beoved, now are we tho sons
OF God" Said he; '''rhe epistle was
written to tho members OF the
church in Asia Minor. The church did
not fear persecution from the beloved,
but from the dissentions within. La the
text the teacher puts before US the fact
that i'm Christ al, can be purified. IL Is
in the Son OF God that we must find the
motive and power 10 overcome obstacles.
ut is my purpose TO urge upon you the
twofold duty that is implied. IL is a con-
spicuous part OF your Office to bring others
unto Christ. But in order TO do SO you
must possess what you would have
others possess and do what you would
have Others do. First, yon must
be faithful to your duty. You cannot
build up church from tho Bible for
yourselves. Ihe church has been given TO
you to worship in. IL is your duty TO
lead lives that arc holy; conquer that
shame which Is felt by young men In
religious affairs, use great iudg-
ment in the kind OF books
you read, be chastc in thought and action,
and guard yourself against the sins OF i'm
purity. Young men are especially ex-
posed to these sins. The remedy for all
sorts OF moral disorders will be found in
the text. We are all sons OF God and by
his divine grace will be saved"
