THE INCOME TAX.

WAsuINoToN, Nov. IA reyanue
of fifty million dollars is expected by
the Democrats of the WAYS and
Means Committee from the moderate
income tax which they propose to in
corporate i'll the new revenue bill.
The rate Of the tax will probably be
two per cert, aud the exemption will
be high enough to exclude the great
mass of laboring men and people or
small salaries. The limit now under
discussion is from $3.5OO to $1,000.
A good many statistics have been
prepared by the treasury experts on
the incomes of tho country and the
rates of revenue obtained uuder diff,
ferent plans, and it is believed that
the Two per cent. rate will yield n
handsome addition to the revenues of
the government. If the increase in
the revenue should prove insufficient
after year or two to meet the de.
mands of the treasury, the rate might
be slightly increased aud the limit of
exemption lowered.
One of the attractions of the in
come tax to those iuembers Of the
committee who are advocating it is
that it allows changes in the rate to
meet the demands of the treasury
without disturbing the industries of
the country rs in the case of changes
III the tariff. If the income tax is
adopted i'll the form now under con
sideiation, other changes in the in
tcrnal revenue laws will not be ne.
cessnry. There will be no increrse
in the beer tax, the whiskey tux, the
tax on manufactured tobacco or the
tax on cigars.
