Glass Legislation"

TIE Iisr sid and other republican organs
have, since the introduc ;ou of the income
tax bill denouncei 1t as class Iegi,laiiou," 4"
tan attempt to cinch the rich" etc. II is
best for every citizen 10 look carefully into
this question and not denounce il before
knowing what the scheme is as well as the
character an6 force Of the objections urged
against it, Now, the truth Is. the tax Is levi
therefor the charge Of being class legislation
Is not tenable.
The income tax paying class will not be
the same for any two years. Some who
are fortunate enough 10 be eligible On.
Tear will drop out the next, much to their
sorrow. Others who are too poor to be as.
sessed this year through greater prosperity
will be liable next year. The hardship is
In not having IN income large enough 20
tax-not in paying triae upon supersb bun
dance.
The real victims of class legislation ever
since the close of The war have been the
great mass of poor people. who are taxed
in their poverty upon their nccessaries.
During the war there was created a vas,
and intricate system of taxation which
necessity took tribute from everybody The
banks were taxed, incomes were taxed
manufacturers were liked, Corporations were
taxed, the oyners of watches and Carriages
paid taxes on ihese luxuries, checks weIe
taxed, while the poor were taxed upon
nearly ,vsrything iha' LEY ATE, drank or
wore.
When the war ended ore after another of
the taxes on wealth and luxury were re-
pc ,Ied. until n7w only he tsxes on spirits
and tobacco-.he Iuxuries OF the roor-are
left The revenue du les on Tea anI coffee
were removed. but heyo his no relief
was giysn TO the poor. Indeed, the tariff
taxes were raised repeated and steadily un-
I'll the Mckinley law exceeded the aveage Of
the highest war tariff
The whole burden of n1lional taxation
rests upon consumption And as the amount
OF necessaries required sustain existence
is nearly tine same for poor and rich the re-
suit is great inequ Iity OF taxation. Men
pay not according their ability 10 pay.
or TO the benefits which tiet receive from
the Government, but by no arbitrary pro-
GEES tie many for the advantage Of the
few.
Tne re:mposiiion of the income tax Is, as
Senator Sherman said Ia 1879, a step TO
wards "equaIizrng The burdens between he
rich and the poo,." Iti, but short STEP

Purglns The Pension List.

The announcement just made by Pension
Commissioner Lochren that he will turn
back into the Federal Treasury nearly $25,-
100000 as the savings in the conduct of his
bureau during the past year is welcome
news to the taxpayers of this country.
Ever since the war the Republican party
has made party capital of its willingness to
empty the Treasury, not only in the pay
ment of rightful pensions. but in the inter
est of any and all pension sharks. Their
"bloodyshirt" shrieks were naturally re-
doubled with each campaign, and in con-
sequence money for pensions has been
shoveled out by a succession of Corporal
Tanners, who, aided and abetted by Re-
publican Congressman, who were trying to
outdo each other in looting the Treasury
and appealing to "the soldier vote," have
sweled the appropriations for pensions
from the comparatively reasonable sum ol
S35, l2l ,4s2 in 1879 to the enormous sun
of $l66, ,53l, $50 in 1894. The abnorma
growth OF pension appropriations during
the past Is years is officially given a

railways leading from the Atlantic sea-

10 per cent in the wages of their workmen,
to take effect the middle Of July. The re-
duction was violently resisted by the en-
ployees and most active steps taken 10 pre-
vent its success. On the 1871 Of July the
battle began. The employees of the Balti-

gathered such strength as to prevent The
running of trains and set the authorizes
at defiance. Militia was called cut tut

How Far Bicyclists Go.

Few people who are no; active bicyClis's
have any notion of the grea, distance .rav-
eled by men and boys on their wheels on
Saturday afternoons and Sunday. Bicycle
riders are accustomed to relat. stories OF
the distance covered, but their tales are not
always received with evidence Of
belief. There is a sort OF gooInatuIed
theory sfloat that such stories should te
accePtsd just as the fishing tales o. favored
members of the family are received by in
dulgent audiences. As a matter of fact,
however, the runs of the bicycle enthusias-
tic verge upon tte marvellous. New York
ere think nothing of going to Caney Island
and back on Sunday, and this not only
means journey OF g. TO ~ miles, but it is
made over all sorts and conditions OF roads
and Pavements, and is usually, says the New
York Sun. made by men who are not In
prime condition. Three schoolhoys started
out tow ards Newark on Sunday on their
wheels from seventy six h street, and when
they returned at night they had penetrated
far into New Jersey, and had rolled up 90
miles in the course of he day. Ttey we're
slim, well built lads ranging between i,
and I6 years of age, and they came home
after the journey perfectly fresh and strong.

IL was high time some regard was being
paid to the honesty in the granting of pen
sions. The period had certainly arrived
when the pension list could be scrut.nized
calmly and dispassionately, and in the in
terest of all the people. TO the end that
thousands upon thousands Srongfully sup
ported by the Federal Government might
be taken from around the neck of taxpay-
ers, who are still ready to give millions TO
the deserving disabled Union survivors of
the war.
So it happens that Commissioner Loeb
rem, man who's loyalty and honor will
never be questioned, has been devoting his
time TO cutting of tho pension shark ex =
crescences, and has already saved from the
appropriation for 1894 81, ,000, coo.
More than that, the amount carried in
the legislative bill for pensions during 1893
is reduced to Sl5l ,5Sl, $50. and it is proba-
bic even that sum will no, be necessary in
view of the reforms that are rapidly being
inaug gurated.
Every honest man should rejoice at the
prospect of Purging the pension list Of
some OF its perjurers and camp followers.
1t must be made a veritable roll of hon
or, whereon will appear the names Of only
the deserving and gallant Union soldiers
vino suffer in reality by reason of their De-
fense of the Union.
The country has grown bevond the DEM
agogic shrieks for ''the soldier vote" " II
has reached a stage in its histo-y when its
pension list, shameleFsly abused and sxol-
len to bursting by reason of reckless in
roads upon it, has become the wonder of
the world. And now that passions and
prejndiees ale sufficiently sileneed to be
honsst and candid and fair; Tow that men
may b. reasonable without icing charged
with disloyaity; nov that common sense is
ready to take the place of frenzied appeals
TO the power of plunder. the 2urging Of the
pension list becomes another patriotic and
commendable feature of tn Cleveland ad-
ministration.
