not the indolent, the fool or the tramp.
l! we DO not tax the result of skill, in
dustry and enterprise, we will tax
nothing, unless we resort to the ''single
tax" theory of Henry George. This
argument, carried TO its logical results.
means this Tax nothing but the pure
land values. This argument might be
forceiul in a convention devising u
theory of taxation, but has no place
under our constitutional theory.
The merchant who pays upon the
value of his goods and then for a license
to sell them is in one sense dOubly
taxed. The farmer assessed for farm
valued at $4,000, mOrtgaged for Sc, 900
pays on double what he is worth, and
other instances might be enumerated,
such as the double, if not treble taxa.
ton under your ground rent system in
Baltimore, but this is not illegal taxa
ton. Whether o law might not be
framed more equal in this respect is a
subject of discussion. This metaphys-
ical, invisible property which Mr..
COwen talks OF, is oftentimes the most
valuable property of corporation, for
instance, that immaterial thing which
we call franchise. 1t yields an income
and can be sold in the market. 1t is
created by the state and is protected
by it. 1t makes the owner thereof
prosperous and happy. Then why
should it not contribute its due proper
9iOn of the expenses of government.
There is one leading question to bo
kept in view-whatis property When
this is ascertained, no matter whether
it is visible or invisible, material or i'm.
material, the owner of it ought to pay
taxes according to his worth. l have
been asked if it was fair for a man
holding bonds to have to pay a large
percentage of his income for taxes. In
reply | have asked if it is fair for the
land owner, whose land probably does
not pay as much income as the bond.
holders property, to be compelled to
pay rs large a fraction of his income.
Is not this a commentary on the de-
pravity and temptation of wealth ? 1t
always seems to me that the true doc
trine is, the thing that is right is the
thing to be done, and that expedioucy
finds no place when question of JUS
tice is involved.
