The Income Tax in New York.

Mr.. lanes G. Carter IS easily first
among New York lawyers. Nobody DIS
putes his primacy. He WAS one OF the
speakers at the meeting In that city
few days ago Of the businessmen OF
all kinds. In that meeting Of New YORK
ers Mr.. Carter declared that the income
tax is the most fair, most just, and most
equitable OF all taxes. and large ma
iorty Of the businessmen broke out into
emphatic expressions of approval. Mr.
Hill was no doubt surprised when he
read the newspaper reports OF Mr.. Car
ter's declaration and of the reception
with which II met at the hands Of the
people He has separated from his party
because that party advocates 1.-The fairest.
most Just, and most equitabla or all
taxes"
But the question as to how the business
men OF New York stood affected towards
the income tax was n second time put
10 them and n second time answered
by them in the same way. Mr. Frederic
II. Coudert. another New York lawyer
condemned the tax in unmeasured terms,
but was greeted with loud expressions OF
disapproval. II was plain that large
part Of the audience favored the income
tax, and it follows consequently that the
views Of the best people in New YORK
on this subject have been misrepresented.
The reader must recollect that there were
no two opinions as to the character OF
the men composing that audience.
But though New York may not be op-
posed TO ar income tax, she is opposed
to any further delay in the matter OF
revising the customs duties. The men
who favor an income tax and the men
who oppose IL clamor together for the
passage OF the new tariff bill and for
the restoration of the good times" OF
which the whole country now stands in
need.
Shall the peoples utterances go for
nothing? This Is n serious question for
congressman to neglect Let them no
longer delay the action their constituents
ask for.

The Committee on revision Of the
Louisiana Constitution. now In session At
BATON Rouge, have adopted an amend
ment 10 article IS concerning the qualIn-
cation OF electors. After stating age. res
dcncs, registration. &c. the amendment
provides: He shall have paid his poll tax

he shall be able TO read the Constitution
of the State In his mother tongue. or
shall be the bona fide owner OF property.
real or personal. located In this State and
assesred to him for the year next preced-
ing the election at cash valuation OF not
less than 500.
his mother. tongue has n peculiar
Significance In Louisiana. as there are 30
many people there who can only read
and speak In French. However, this pro-
vision would liliewiss make voters OF
Italians. Germans. and others OF foreign
birth who can read their language bat not
ours.
We do not quite understand the pro-
posed poll-tax prerequisite. IL IL leaves
any opening for the voter 10 pay IN issi
a tax which was due in 1885 II may not
work well-otherwise the provision Is
good one. Virginia tried the poll-tax
prerequisite, but our constitutional pro-
viso on the subject was not as rigorous
AS IL should have been. and soon became
unpopular, and was repealed several years
ago.
II will be observed that the committee
propose to give suffrage to any man
who can read (and who is otherwise quar-
fed), and to any man who cannot reau.
proyjded that ne IL the owner OF wv
worth OF real or personal property.
II these provisions become part OF
the organic law Of Louisiana, the NUMBER
Of ignorant AMI venal voters IN that
State will be vastly REDUCED.
In time every Southern State VIII nave

rience has shown that it is necessity

Tn addition T. the persons who are
given the right Of suffrage, as proposei
by the Louisiana committee. we Should
add: "All who have borne arms al inc
call OF the state during any war, inva-
sion. or insurrection." Thus every such
veteran would be entitled to vote whether
he could read or could show that he held
property OF the value Of 500 Some o. the
Northern and Western States accorded the
right Of suffrage to all foreigners VINO
enlisted In their regiments and were
honorably discharged therefrom. Thus a
foreigner might have acquired suffrage
by less than thirty days residence IN
such State.
Virginia Is going to have constitu-
ton convention before very long. Year
by year the advocates OF convention
increase in number. When our people
see how easily other Southern states are
able to rid themselves Of Objectionable
voters. they will not consent 10 continue

An Objection to Gold.

Mr.. T.. G. Keith, Chicago bank presi-
dent, having objected to silver that Its
bulk is too great for IL 10 be made a
measure OF values or legal tender for
large debts, the Inter-Ocean talks back
to Mr.. Keith as follows:
"He might with equal proprlety advo-
cate the decentralization OF gold. FOR In
the actual exchanges OF business that
coin IL even more Objectionable than Sill
YER II Is not so bulky. but, as every
banker knows, II takes only little actual
use OF a gold coin to involve a loss. II the
banks of Chicago were to take their gold
reserves to the subtreasury they would
find that no inconsderable per cent. OF II
would be rejected as too light in weight
TO be a legal tender at Its face value
The Keith argument II II proves anything,
overleaps itself and lands on the other
side"
In other words. inasmuch as good
money will stand the test Of the scales
that Is, its amount can be ascertained
by weight as we'll as by tale, and in
asmuch as gold cannot be handled much
without deprivine IL OF some at least Of
its value, therefore gold ought not to be
made measure OF values. However, the
Inter-Ocean dismisses the subject In the
following curt manner:
1.-THE arguments in favor OF interna-
tional bimetallism. however. rest upon
broader grounds than the liability OF
gold to abrasion; while the bulkiness OF
silver cuts but a small figure in the argu-
ments against 1t.
1t Is fast being realized In England
and Germany that their decentralization
OF silver was a mistake and that COM
mercial needs will sooner or later require
return to the old policy or the adoption
of better one; at any rate, the estab-
lishment of the relations Of the two
metals upon such a relative basis as to
insure their universal parity upon the ex-

The Nicaragua Canal.

The Lynchburg Advance pronounces
the projected Nicaragua canal "the grand
est scheme for the promotion of COM
merce now challenging public attention"
The Advance is right. We can under
stand why Mr.. Davis. Of Minnesota. or
Mr.. Sherman. Of Ohio, or any northern
United States senator might look with q
jealous eve upon this magnificent high
way Of the commerce of the world. but
we cannot understand how any southern
man can find it in his heart to antago-
nlze a canal that promises TO make the
South possess the riches "of Ormus and or
Iud" AS Senator Morgan says, never
mind who are the men that are trying
TO get the credit of this scheme They
may go down to their graves without
weakening the claims Of the projected
canal upon the world But let as see to
it that the scheme succeeds whatever may
become of ambitious men. The world

The Southern Republicans.

It seemed TO be the opinion OF the
members of the Executive Committee OF
the Republican National League, which
was in session In Washington city last
week, that the representation In the Re-
publican National Conventions should be
changed. One OF the members Of the
League Committee seemed to speak for
all when he said:
1T Is bad politics to permit delegates
from States where Republicans never
elect anything 10 come to a presidential
convention and, by their votes, say who
shall be the nominee. Then they turn
to US and say. We've given you a candi-
date. now 90 In and elect him."
The Washington Post says that from
q report made In one of the executive
sessions by a delegate from Virginia, It
may be set down that mo particular
amount OF time or money will be wasted
by the Republicans this year In a futile
attempt to carry this State. The dele
gate said:
The Australian-ballot system IL sup
posed TO insure purity OF elections, but
when they fix II UP as they have In Vtr-
ginia, 1t simply hands the State over
bound and gagged to the party In power.
The new law provides for the appoint
ment Of a constable. who shall see that
the ignorant voter deposits his ballot
properly. With a Democratic constable
at every voting precinct in Virginia. what
chance will the nominees Of any other
party have?''
1t thus appears that the Anderson-Mc-
Cormick law was not the worst possible
law.

party - veil a. To the Republican party.
