Beginnings of the Income Tax.

In 1877 'stax unheard of before' was
imposed by parliament, which took the
form Of a poll tax, graduated chiefly &C.
cording torank, though partly according
to property. Dukes had to pay &c 15s.
3D.; earls, 81; barons, e.; knights, 81;
squires, 6s. 3d., or, if they had no land,
IS. 3D.. Beggars were exempt. Yet the
whole amount collected was under e25,-
900. The poll tax having failed, the
country reverted to the previous system
Of granting ffteenths and tenths.
The first Indication Of an income tax
occurs in 1896. when an act was passed
imposing a tax on every person ''seized
Of 1nanors, lands, tenements, rents, an
nuities, Offices or any other possessions"
But, although we have here the idea of
income tax, yet this mode of raising a
revenue is generally considered to have
been introduced by Pitt in 1899. The
rate was 10 per cent, and it produced
about e6,000,O0O. After the peace of
Anliens, Addington repealed it on the
ground that it ought to be exclusively
reserved for times of war, but reimposed
it, for the same reason, when the war
broke out again in the following year.
It was very unpopular and was repealed
in 1906, as soon as possible after the
close of the great war.
The tax was reimposed by Peel in 1912
for four years, his object being ''to re-
ieve trade and commerce from the tram
mels by which they were bound" by re-
pealing other taxes in his opinion more
injurious. We were, however, over and
over again promised that it should be
only temporary, and it is still only i'm
posed from year to year.-Sir John Lub-
book in North American Review. +"

amendment to the present tariff bill in
the interest of the -four manufacturers Of
the United States. Today by the aid of
Senator Washburn, Mr.. Lind had ii per
sonal interview with Senators Vest, Jones
and Mills If the subcommittee now con
sidcring the Wilson tariff bill,and secured
permission from Senator Vest TO present
Il statement in writing to the committee,
and the amendment that he desires in
corporated iE the new tariff laws. The
resolution will be substantially us fol-
lows:
The duties levied and to lie paid on
Wines. brantlies, beverages, and upon all
china and glassware: upon allsilks, satins,
velvets, and upon all cutlery and jewel
~, and upon all articles made from cot
ton wool, silk or linen, imported from
countries charging larger pro-rata or re-
lative duty upon flour made in the Unit
ed States than upon whea, grown in the
United States, shall he double the rates
named in this bill"
The purpose of the amendment that
will be submitted to the senate subcom-
mittee by Mr.. Lind is to give larger
foreign market for American -four. A
number of foreign countries, large con-
sumers of b"eadstuffs, chief among which
is France, maintain the tariff duty on
American -four, double that charged on
American wheat. 1t is asserted that
consumers of bread in those counties
prefer American flour on account of it's
superiority, but the discrimination now
practiced prohibits American flour enter
ing their markets. If Lind's amendment
is adopted all this will be overcome be-
cause of thd retalitory duty clause in it..

dangerously i'll. Would Colonel Hardy


ment come at once in the cab sent?
HE jumped in, was driven off rapidly
along the embankment, the long line Of
lights on which were the last things he
distinctly remembered. Somewhere there
he lost consciousness vague recollec-
ton Of the odor of chloroform chung to
him-and only came to himself long
afterward, as it seemed, and then he was
awakened by a sharp sense of discom-
fort and pain.
HE found that he was bound hand
and foot to the bench on which he lay.
Then the pale dawn broke and gave
dim light into the den in which he was
imprisoned. It was a back scullery of
probably a long empty and deserted
house.
"He made frantic, fruitless efforts to
free himself and shouted at intervals
till he was voiceless and faint from ex-
haustion. At last in one of his widest
struggles the bench to which he was
fastened toppled over, and he came heavi-
ly to the ground.
He must have lain senseless for hours
When he regained consciousness, he
heard Voices. Two men were in the
kitchen too busily engaged to take any
notice of him.

morrow; then we'll, fetch in Ikey to

is. Maybe tomorrow We'll do for him.

''Then the two ruffians-one of whom
the colonel recognized as his discharged
servant, Haskell departed without an
other thought Of their captive.
"There was no hope for him. Present
torture prolonged past endurance per-
haps, then violent death. He rolled to
! and fro, now above and now under the
bench, continually injuring himself and
yelling often with the pain Of some sud-
den collision or blow.
''Then he struck against something.
The fingers Of his right hand touched it,
and with the exaggerated sense of touch
due to his position he realized that it was
matchbox!
although his wrist was bound, his
fingers were free, and at last, after end
less attempts, he opened the box, and
then ensued a long struggle before he
could strike a match. But he succeeded,

GLEANINGS
OF THE DAY.
Items Cleaned by the Reporters on
Their Rounds.
BUSINESS BOOMERS HERE
One Man HuStling For the Establishment
Of Plant to Manufacture Artificial
Ice-BrOkerS Also Working.

Several citizens of town have become
interested in plan proposed by a gentle
man from Philadelphia who has been here
the past few days in the interest of firm
that equips ice manufacturing plants. To
some of those who have given the matter
attention the plan seems quite feasible,
but others think the amount of capital
required is little too much.
1t would not be surprising, however, If
a plant Of that kind should be established
in the town, The ice famine which was
experienced here few weeks ago did
more to direct attention to the manufac-
ture of artificial ice than all the talk of
the past few years has accomplished.
One of the old line ice dealers, Daniel
Brennan, has become very much inter-
ested in artificial ice figures and would
not hesitate to enter the field now II he
had the support of others able to contri.
butte toward the cost of arranging a
plant. 1t is said artificial ice is equal in
all respects to the genuine article, can be
secured cheaper, sold cheaper, and the
investors can make twenty per cent. on
their investment.
The basis on which the gentleman who
is here booming the project calls for an
investment OF s27 900 for the mechanical
part of the plant, which will produce
thirty tons of ice per day.
j. j. Franey was reported as having
presided at a meeting which was held last
night to organize a company, but when a
reporter called upon him he said no such
meeting had been held. He had been
consulted in the matter, but had not
made up his mind to go into it. .U
While the artificial ice man has been
hunting up an opening for a plant two
other stylishly dressed gentlemen have
been hustling among some of our people
who have a little money which they can
call their own to give some encourage
ment to the opening of brokers office
They have been working industriously
for the past few days and have found il
| up hill work, too. This town has had lots
of experience with brokers' offices, and
they have not left very good i'm
preston here. 1t may be that the agencies
of the past were not managed as shrewdly
as they should have been forthe investors
and that the one now proposed would
make mint of moEey for its investors
but it was reported this afternoon tha
the gentlemen in charge of the lattel
project had met with so little encourage
ment that they have about concluded tC
give up the idea. . .. ...... ..H
One thing is certain that the town vii
derive more benefit from an ice plant, o
any other plant in the line of industry
than 1t will from brokers' office
