A Revoiution-For whatY

The WILSON Income Tax bill now before
the Senate looks to the greatest revolution
ever seriously attempted or proposed In
American politics. Its sponsors could plead
with Q better face before our political faith
ers for . square proposition that "seces-
sion" b formally recognized by Congress
and openly recorded as q principle appl-
cable to the United States. or for resolu-
ton TO abolish the idea Of preserving for all
citizens the freedom OF equality before the
law. and for each the rights Of all others. The
income tax would have been the supreme
sbomination in the eyes Of those broad
minded lovers Of liberty and equal rights
who. like THOMAS JEFFERSON. infused into
our Constitution Its political inspiration.
and from whom the great Democratic party
received Its mission. IL offers detestabie
and socialistic outrage 10 the American
theory OF citizenship. 1t would be the be-
ginning of q change In the character OF our
Government. and In the nature OF this re-
public. at once radical. far-reaching. and ir-
reconcilable with any principle possible to
advance In the name OF Democracy.
And for what are Democrats urged by
the Administration fanatics TO strike down
their own party aud deal this communistic
blow to the country at larger For the sake
Of getting through Congress q new tax
schsme no better than hash OF cranky. I'M
principled. specialized juggling with the
tariff duties which the Chicago platform
decreed should henceforth be laid imparti-
ally for revenue only. At the best 1t Ia .
mere bauble OF tariff reform.
The bargain to which the communists
have invited the Democrats Is too ludi-
crously one-sided TO be called bargain at
all. The Democrats get nothing but sham
and shadow. And In return for that they
are asked to recant irrevocablv funda-
mental principle Of their partyl No won
der that . Democrat like DAVID BEN-
NETT HILL has risen with heroic vigor
In opposition. and that the echoes OF his
thundering denunciation come back from
every centre OF true Democracy. and from
every region OF genuine love and respect
for the republic of the United States. Let
them roll up still louder! Away with the
income taxi Take the Popuiist's claws
from the fair face Of Democracy!

II II the Popular Judgment?

The Evening Post, with an affectation
characteristic Of that pretentious news
paper. Processes to wonder why anybody
should DO interested In the BREcKIsRIDaH
trial. OF course everybody is interested in
1t. including this writer who pretends to
indifference. and reasonably and neces-
snrtly 80. since 1t involves fundamental
and essential question Of social morals.
The question is not the particular issue
decided by the Washington jury. or whether
Miss POLLARD was entitled to her dam
ages for breach OF promise Of marriage: but
whether such baseness as BREoKINRIDGE has
confessed unblushingly shall 60 unpublished
by the jury Of all society. and moro espe-
cially by the people OF the Congress district
Of which he IL now the representative. It
Is the question whether the turpitude Of .
mans private character shall be taken into
consideration In determining his fitness for
the reward of high public place.
BRECKENRIDGE boldly announces that no
seeks and expects denomination and re-
election by his Kentucky constituents. His
theory. apparently. Is that the private life
and moral tone Of . candidate for Congress
are Of no concern to the public. that the
only test they can apply to him properly Is
as to bis ability to discharge the purely pub
lie functions intrusted to him; 30 that II he
performs his representative duties faith
fully and creditabiy. It Is nobody's business
except his own whether his life outside Of
Congress Is decent or indecent.
On a previous occasion. and with refer
enoe to another public man. the Ecening
Post took the same ground. and naturally
1t now sympathizes with BREoKINRIDaE It
argued then that even fragrant violation Of
social morality and social decency consti-
tuted no reasonable bar to the public eleva-
ton Of q man. no matter how high and hon.
orable. and 1t ridiculed all those who
thought differently. as Influenced by an abb
surd and q silly circumstances. 1t con-
tended. as BRECKENRIDGE contends. that
Righteousness In Q man leaves no stain on
his character 80 far as concerns his fitness
to serve and represent the public.
II that is also the opinion Of his Kentucky
district. and manifestly BRECKNRIDGEh him.
self thinks 1t Is. and II Congress itself and
the people generally are Of that mind. q
question Of principle will be settled of great
Importance as q precedent. Thereafter. every
public man will DO left free to descend into
any baseness and uncleanness In his private
life to which his animal nature tends. with
out incurring any reproach IL he preserves
q reputation for honesty and propristy. A
iewd fellow will not for that reason suffer
In public estimation.
Is that q Judgment which BREcKNRIDGE's
constituents and the rest Of the people are
prepared to rendsr2 II it Ia. the time has
come for closlng the churches and estab-
fishing new code Of morals. or rather for
ADVOCATING the moral Law altogether.

OF the NonkCrs police. politicians in
general and Tammany Hall in plrticu-
lar.
At the services, last night. he was
speaking IN the usual Strain ewhcn Rev.
Mr.. Hill, who was in thu Congrega ion,
asked IL Rev. Mr. Davenport would en-
tighten his lock as to whether the r.
publican candidate for Governor was in
the business Of selling liquor
This question was evidently based on
the fact that Levi T.. Morton is the
owner OF a hotel in Wash .ng. on.
Mr.. Davenport declined to answer the
question and heated argument fol
lowed. John Oliver, editor of tn,
Yonkcrs Statesman, took part In the
discussion, upholding the pastor and
denouncing Rev. Mr. Hll for his inter
rup ION.
Many members of the congregation
became disguised with the turn OF af-

Leading operators seem to be waiting
