The Income Tax.

In the ways and means committee,
when the question of an income tax
came up for consideration, the Dem
ocratic policy prevailed. Mr.. Bourke
Cochran, representing the eastern pol
icy of exempting incomes from taxa
ton. offered as a substitute for the rev.
olution before the committee propo-
sition to tax the incomes from
corporations ! per cent. and inherit
ances per cent.
This was defeated, and the original
proposition to levy tax of per cent.
on Individual incomes of over 81, 900,
and on the net incomes OF corporations
prevailed. Sound policy would suggest
that the rate on incomes over $40, 900
should be increased to 4 per cent, and
oD incomes over $4,000 per cent.
These grades can be fixed and ad-
justed in the house. Meanwhile, it is
gratifying to know that the Democratic
members of the committee have not
fallen in with the proposition to exempt
altogether the incomes of rich individ-
uals, but have voted to tax them equal
ly with the net incomes of corporate
interests.
AS revenue measure, the PROPOSE
ton adopted by the committee will not
prove as satisfactory as rate so
fixed as to increase with the increasing
incomes, but, as we have said, the
house can make the tax graded one.
and in this way enlarge the revenue
from that source and inject the neces-
sary element of justice and equality in
to the measure.
1t is enough to know at this time
that the ways and means committee is
willing to meet the wishes of the peo-
pie in this matter, and to give wealthy
individuals an opportunity to bear some
of the burdens of taxation in return for
the protection that the government af-
fords them.
So far as the corporate interests are
concerned, they in every case hold
their charters from state, do business
under state laws and look to the state,
and not to the federal government. for
their protection. The proposition that
was before the committee to tax these
interests and exempt the incomes of
wealthy men was in the nature Of a
violation of the fundamental principle
of Democracy and abhorrent to the
sense of justice that resides in the
minds of the people. We are glad
that the committee disposed of it in a
summary manner.-Atlantn Constitu-
tion.

 Count Herbert Bismarck resisted in 1890 the overture of the emperor and the chancellor, who wished him to take di- plomstic post.

ENCOUNTERED A atRRioAsE.

A BIx Sea Broke on the Deck of a Steamer Doing Much Damsge-Ihe stserkse Passengers in an Agony of Tsrrof.
 NKw YORK, Feb 4-Ths ssssraer 7aor- nina, which arrived to-day, when near Sable leland, in latitude 40.50. longitude a9 40, enc ountered hurricane which con- tinued for forty eight konfs. At o'clock on the morning of the Slst ut. big sea broke CD the deck, and the men st the wheel lost control of the vessel. The bolts in the main boom were loosened and the boom threshing about struck hfeboat No. 8 on the stsrbosrd side, and knocked 1t overheard. Afterwards the boom, swing ing with the roll of the ship, carried away the lee rigging of the mainmsst, and the mast snapped of and went overheard The big wave also broke the cspstan. stove In hatch and twisted the rails and the deck fittings. Cabin Steward Fred Huebenet slipped on deck. and striking the lee bull warks, sustained severe injuries to head and body.
 It was only by long and troublesome work that the crew were able to clear away the wreck. Meanwhile the steersge psss- engers below decks were in an agony of terror. Some men were on their knees praying, while others staggered about and cured as they were pitched this way and that by the lurchipg of the vessel. When the mast went by the board the women screamed and some became hysterical. All expected to see the ship go down. Cap tain Koch went among the men and women and by personal appeals succeeded In al laying their fears somewhat.
 Captain Koch had oil freely poured on the waves and to this he attributes the es- cape of the vessel from much greater dam age than she sustained.
 It was fortunate, Captain Koch says, that the vessel was in the gulf stream, as the men were enabled to work swiftly in the comparatively warm weather In clear ing away the fallen mast.
 The hurricane subsided on February 1, but head winds were encountered, delaying the Taormins five or six days.
