THE INCOME TAX BILL.
How II is Regarded in the House of its
Friends.

From the Washington Post (Dem.l
If the Democrats should finally COM
init themselves to the principles involv-
ed In the income tax now proposed as
part of general scheme of revenue
reform, they will alarm and ALLEVIATE
every one of their conservative allies.
The income tax measure in question is
class legislation in its ugliest and most
vicious form. 1t is nothing more nor
less than the imposition of penalty
upon and the offer of a reward for per-
jury. 1t is so unjust and SO offensive
III Its discrimination against intelligent
enterprise, and so base in its surrender
to the clamor and the prejudice of the
mob, that from the very outset it chal-
lenges the hostility and invites the an
tagonism of the better elements of our
population. Thoughtful men will learn
to distrust a party SO manifestly in
spired by the motives and welded
to the purposes of the demagogue.
Men of substance and responsibility
will look to political alliances that
promise them protection in the enioy.
ment of the fruits of their energy and
providence.
Any system that leads to friction be-
tween the official and the citizen. that
makes of one taskmaster and q ty
rant and of the other victim and
malcontent, is fatal to the idea of free
institutions. The moment their inter
ests diverge, the moment there is some
thing to conceal on the one hand and
something to discover on the other.
that moment the citizen begins to re-
gard the official as his enemy and the
Government as his oppressor. The of
fetal becomes an inquisitor and the
citizen a fugitive. We have then the
governing class arrayed against the
people and all the abhorrent train of
fear, suspicion, animosity and discon-
tent to which this free country has
hitherto been stranger, and because of
Its immunity from which it has been
prosperous and happy.
Bad as that would be, however, the
income tax proposed by the Democratic
party now is infinitely worse. 1t is a
campaign of spoliation against brains,
ability and enterprise. 1t is confes-
sion of bad faith and imbecility by the
Democratic party-a stab at the happi-
piness and welfare of the American
people, and it should be antagonized
by every one who loves his country and
cares for the perpetuity of the institu-
tions in which its honor and its glory
are involved.

sion been triumphant, the South would
simply have been cut off from Northern
capital and Northern energy, while the
free trade provision of the Confederate
Constitution, entering into full effect in
time of peace, would have impoverished
that section for the benefit of Europe:
skilled labor would have stunned the
degrading association of slavery, and
the South, drained of its natural re-
sources, would have met the fate of
Northern Africa. which was reduced
to desert by the exhaustive cultiva-
ton of the soil.
But successful secession was impossi-

the Union were an overwhelming ma.

Union. No sacrifice was deemed too
great, and occasional repulse only

A Blow at New York Stnte.

From the Evening Post Cleveland Dem.)
AS regards the income tax, there is
no doubt that it is an attempt on the
part of the South and West to put on
the people of the Northeast more than
their share of the public burdens. 1t
Is in this section that the people with
more than $4,000 annual income most
abound, and the South and West want
to punish them for being in comfort
able circumstances, A perfectly fair
income tax would fall on all who had
regular yearly income from $500 up.
There is no reason in the world WHY
people with $500 year should not pay
as well as people with $4,000. They
pay every other tax, and why not this!
This would distribute the tax, as all
other federal taxes are distributed, ov er
the whole Union and the whole popu-
lation.

If Secession Had Triumphed.

Considerable disc ussion has been
aroused by certain patriotic utterances
of Judge Emory Speer in his charge to
the Grand Jury in the United States
District Court at Savannah last Wed
nesday, Judge Speer is a native of
Georgia and entered the Confederate
service at 16 years of age. He fought
bravely for the cause of secession, but
has lived to congratulate himself and
his fellow citizens that secession was
not accomplished. Suppose" he said.
that we had succeeded in our late eff
fort to disrupt the Government and es
tablish an independent government of
our own in the South, what would have
been the condition of the people of the
South? In all the light which the lapse
of years has thrown upon that terrible
struggle and upon it's results it can not
be doubted, believe, by thinking men,
that our condition would have been
much worse if we had succeeded than
it is now. Opposed as we would have
been by the spirited people of the North
ern section of this country, we would
have had constant wars. We would
have been taxed into a condition of
poverty which the people could not have
borne. What is the spectacle now
We have harmonious Union, benefi
cent in all its results upon more than
sixty millions of people. No other peo
pie can point in its history to such an
instance of magnanimity on the part of
the Government. Certainly such gov
government, 80 magnanimous, With
such laws. deserves the full, free and
unreserved support of all people,"
There is no doubt that Judge Speer
expressed views generally held by intel
llgent citizens in the South, and espec-
tally by those who rememb Der the oper-
ations of the Conlederacy. General
Stone, of Kentucky, is reported as say
ing that he agrees in the main with
Judge Speer. THE constitution of the
Confedacy." he declares, had within
it the seeds of dissolution. Had we
succeeded, it is possible that each State
by this time would have found cause to
withdraw from the Confederacy and es
tabllsh its own Sc ,arate government. -
Representative Oates, of Alabama, CON
siders that if the South had succeeded,
it would have esta blished the right OF
dislntegrution and ultimately have led
to the Coniederacy breaking up into a
number OF governments. Gen Wheeler,
OF Alabama, on the other hand, believes
that Southern success would have been
followed by restoration of the Union
on compromise satisfactory to the
Southern people. Elk Confederate opin
ion, so lar as represented in Congress,
evidently inclines to the view that the
success OF secession would have been
disastrous to the South.
Indeed, even during the war the strong
military despotism at Richmond was
unable to curb the tendency to disin-
tegraticn, and Jones, in his Dairy of a
Rebel War Clerk, " mentions sharp cor.
respondence between the central and
State government as ominous OF trouble
certain to come with the accomplish
ment OF Confederate aims. Had seces-

A Tran,

From the New York Herald Ind. Deml
1t seems almost inconceivable that
the Democrats should be SO stupid or
so reckless as to fall into this trap.
Their only safe course politically, to
say nothing of patriotism or states
manship, is to put tariff revision thro
with all promptness and to reject the
income tax imposition with all empha-
sis. The Democratic leaders have been
amply warned that the people will turn
out any party which forces the income
tax infamy upon them.
