The Income Tax.

To the Editor:
Sir: The wealth. OF this city held q meeting
In Carnegie Music Hall last Friday evening to pro-
test against the income tax One OF the speakers
protested against this tax on the grounds that
It affected the workingman who has a few dollars
In a savings bank. What humbug! Another that
the working people, or the poorer classes. would
have to pay this tax In indirect way. More
humbug. The poor people know better than this.
and therefore not protesting against this tax.
They know this is fair and Just tax and will tax
the people that can best afford to pay It, 4
great many Of the newspapers to the contrary,
Notwithstanding. The newspapers and Senators
that are opposing this measure are simply work.
Ing In the interest OF themselves and the classes
that this tax will fall on Let Congress pass this
Tarir bill with the income tax. and follow this
up by enacting such laws that will restrict immi-
grafton to about 100. 900 immigrants q year. and
the people will give the Democratic party q much
longer lease Of power than they gave tho Repub-

A SOUND POSITION.

Mayor Gilroy has declared emphatically
that and official found guilty Of receiving
money fol the protection of crime and
immortality must go and be punished as
severely as the law will permit.
."rhe idea Of a public officer using his
authority to wiring money from law
breakers as pay for protecting them
while they follow a shameful business
fills me with anger and disgust" says
the Mayor.
The Mayor adds that 1t is the duty OF
every authority to abstain from doing
any act that can in any manner interfere
with the work Of the Senate Committee
and he declares that he shall do nothing
whatever TO punish any offenders until
the work of the Committee is completed
In order not to embarrass in any manner
