The City Council held a three hours

was laid over to some future session.
Evidently the council does not be-

reads, Cline is money" Al least
100 citizens had assembled at the
tity Hall expecting the final settle

dustfia processes of the people
Applause from the Democratic side ]
You say it is a tax upon thrift
Who are the thrifty people? Shall
we exclude those who labor, and all
the people of moderate means who,
under our present system of taxation
only upon consumption, are now
taxed out OF all proportion to the
balance OF their fellow-citizens? Shall
we include only those who, by inner
ltahee or by reason of privilege under
State or Federal Government, or by
their superior endowment of nature,
II you please, are more fortunate and
successful than theirneighbors? But
is 1t not proper, if we tax all OF the
thrift OF the thrifty poor, which we
do now, that we should also in some
way equalize the burden by putting
at least some tax upon the greater
thrift, il you like, and the greater
ability OF those who make and have
much?
DO the savings of the rich represent
greater denial than the savings of
the poor? Is thrift only that thrift
in which industry is coupled with OPP
portnnity and ability? Is thrift only
that thrift in which property is ac-
qulred by inheritance or privilege
and without labor? Whence comes
this new doctrine of thrift? Is it not
ulster, is it not wiser, that we should
lay the burdens of taxation, here amp
now, in accordance with the great
principle OF equality, for the support
OF aeommong government? [Applause
ON the Democratic side.
Sir, we are the only civilized nation
that does not tax surplus wealth.
We are the only civilized nation that
burdens only labor. All impose
taxes upon incomes far in excess of
what is here proposed. The despot-
isms OF Europe dare not fasten the
burdens OF taxation upon the poor
to the extent that we do. What they
dare not attempt by force we achieve
and sulpass by fallacy and delusion.
| appeal to gentlemen to stand to-
eether to the ultimate conclusion of
this great measure, and to hail it,
whatever may be it's inmaterial de-
fects, as the day dawn of better
era, in which the application of the
great principle of equal rights. the
only true principle Of government,
shall pcfyade all parts OF the land
and heal the ills of the people loud

A YOUTHFUL INCENDIARY.
Lively Chase After Boy Charged
With Setting Fires.

Precinct Detective Barnes of the second
precinct and Officers Hayhurst and Aul-
bridge had lively time about 2 o'clock
this morning, when they went to house
No. 1922 Marion street to arrest an alleged
youthful f1rebug. William Sanders. coll
ored, fifteen years old. was the boy wanted.
and the officers thought they would find
him in bed and capture him without any
trouble. But in this they were mistaken.
for the boy jumped out of the second-story
window, and managed to get over five
back fences before he was captured. His
arrest was made because he had been the
cause Of two fires during the past week.
When the fire occurred at Grasty's furni-
ture store, on 7th street, last week, the
police were satisfied that II was the work
OF an incendiary, but they were unable to
fix the crime on any particular individual.
When the fire occurred at Johnsons wood
yard, on It'll street, Sunday night, the eff.
forts to find the incendiary were renewed.
and Precinct Detective Barnes obtained
the evidence OF four witnesses to show
that Sanders used coal oil and set fire to
the shed. With this Information obtained,
the officers went out in search of the boy,
and Ii was not until early this morning
that they were able to overtake him.
When locked up the boy admitted that he
had set fire to the places, and said he did
SO because he was cold and wanted to get
warm. He will be tried in the Police Court
tomorrow.
