INCOME TAX.

gold-bug paper. 1t lives and moves
and has it's being for no other pur-
pose than to oppose justice and
work unrighteousness, and can see
nothing to commend in any law
that does not confer special laws
and power upon the rich.
In recent article on the proposed
graduated income tax, it propounds
few questions which it regards,
perhaps, as, unanswerable Summers,
the first of which is: T.,
Touching the proposed income
tax, has the Democratic party ever
stopped to think that equality of
taxation is blessed thing?
This question has been asked by
tax payers unnumbered times, but
has never been answered, for the
reason that it cannot be without the
schemers exposing their Internal
villainy. There is nothing in which
there is now greater inequality
than there is in the assessment and
nayment of taxes. Men of moder-
ate means pay beyond their just
proportion. The Advertisers next
question is one upon which the law
makers might give some light:
What right has anybody to tax a
man VINO has an earned income OF
$50 900, and not man who has an
income of 81 500? To tax property,
lands. valuabies, etc, is one thing !;
TO tax incomes is another.
This has been met with the coun,
ter query, Why must the possessor
of a $4,000 farm pay taxes on it,
and the possessor of $4,000 worth
of government bonds go untaxed !!
The Advertiser winds up with
the plutocratic threat
The people stood the inqulsltorlal
exaction during the war, but they
will not stand it in peace. Marx
that si-
Which leaves us with the old gag
about meddling in the private affairs
of men. There is not tax levied
and paid that is not inquisitorial.
/ Every twelve months we are remind
ed anew of this. Bond-holders and
other untaxed property holders dc
not want the taxpayers to know
how cruelty they are robbed, Oh
who the robbers are. Thai would
be ''inquisitorial J"

The Populist guard at the state
treasurer's Office had to be fired last
week for drunkness! Another sam
pie of reform. Leader Courier.
Kerrect: but if it had been a Re-
publican administration he would
have been promoted to governor so
he could have gone to Denver and
got drunk, been made adjutant gen
eral SO he could have helped out the
Ohio brethren, as did Lew Hanback,,
or have been elevated to a position
on top of house of prostitution, in
his shirt-tail, as was A. b Campbell,
provided always that his party had
a prohibition plank in its platform.

OVER three thousand working
GIRLS were turned out of employ
ment in Chicago, New Years day.
Some of those girls, doubtless, will
sell their bodies and souls for bread.
Will they alone DO to blame? viii
not each person who, in spite of a
knowledge of present conditions,
votes to perpetuate those conditions,
have TO answer for a share of the
sin?

1t is plain now that Cleveland is a
usurper.. Has violated the constitu
ton and is liable to impeachment.
He appointed commissioners,
Mr. Blount, with the advice and
consent of the senate, and made bin,
paramount" over minister who
had been confirmed by the senate.
Give him an inch and he win take
all ell. Thus liberty has been lost.

THERE are many laws on the stat
ute. books of the nation, passed by
Republican and Democratic con-
gressmen and signed by Republican
and Democratic presidents, that
would be blot-a cause OF reproach
to any nation, but more so to this
nation because it is representative
nation-the, people represented by
met who have betrayed us into the
power of those who seek to destroy
us-and those who would avert
such a dire condition are yet too
few. The great mass remain the
dupes of conspirators and traitors.

In 1885. the country emerged
from a four,years' desolating war.
A million tried and true soldiers
were returned to the pursuits OF
peace. At that day, greatful
country would have granted them
anything they.should have requested
They were men of peace, though for
years they had lived in the tented
field; but while there, brigands
were adjusting schemes that turned
loose an army of freebooters to-
prey upon the laborers OF the
country, and they are at it yet-and
growing in power, even getting into
the courts.

fortunes of the damned tor tear we
will lose our republic. Poor, delud-
ed simpletons we. never had a re
public, nor anything like a republic,
unless the old British government
of George III. was republic.
1t might as well be known now as
learned hereafter that in 1889 a
clique of our much be-worshlpped
ancestors conspired together in Sc
cret conclave and re-saddled the old
British government onto Americans
without a single change of fact.
There was not dirty rope or greasy
pulley of the old machine left out.

Not if he has any regard for truth

They made few slight changes
of forms and Ihrases to deceive the
over. credulms and unwary. The
monarch they called a president, but
arranged for succession, that no link
in the chaiu of despotism might
ever be broken, and they endowed
the president with the same iden

then possesscd--far more than the
queen of England now dare exer
