Blooms Only When the Wind Blows.

4 flower has been discovered in South
America which is only visible when the
wind blows. The shrub belongs to the
cactus family and is about three feet
high. The stem is covered with dead,
watery looking Jumps in calm weather.
These Jumps, however, need but a slight
breeze to make them unfold large flowers
of a creamy white, which close and ap-
pear dead as soon as the wind subsidies.

There is a disagreement among the
democratic leaders as to whether or not
there should be an income tax. AT first
it was said there would lie a tax on all in
comes of "a, 600 and Now it is said
that only the net incomes of corpora ions
will be taxed. 1t is thought there will be
less objection to a tax on corporation in
comes.
As matter Of fact will not tax on the
incomes of corporations be tax uron
poor people as well as rich? The great
majority of poor people have their savings
in corporations Their little properties
are in bonds and stocks. A tax on thein-
comes Of corporations, therefore, would
be tax upon the incomes of some poor
and some rich people. Many poor and
many rich people would escape the tax
altogether. If there is to be an income
tax, it would be more just to tax iudiyid-
ual incomes, because only those able to
pay the tax would be reached
Those who want to tax raw sugar are
wiser than those who propose an income
tax A duty on sugar would raise the
price of sugar very little The poor, who
use but little sugar, would pay only a
small part of the tax. The rich, who use
great deal, would pay the most of it.
And then the sugar planters would
have no grievance. A sugar bounty is
not in harmony with the general policy of
the Democratic party. ..
Sugar has always been regarded as a
revenue article. A duty upon it would
not violate the tariff policy of the Demo
cratic party.
