SENATOR HILL AND THE TIMES. y

b5AE1Uh hlLL ANU 1tiE
Senator Hill was right yesterday when he
said that The WASHINGTON TIMES is jealous
defender OF the income tax, and he also cor
rertly quoted that ''it is a tax on brain energy
and not on the wages of labor, and will be
welcomed by a majority os the people as a
means of relieving in part the burden of tariff
taxation from TINES editorial as proof of
his assertion. But he was wrong when he
said that this attempt to control the brain,
the resources, the exertions, the thrift, the
prudence, and the industry of the people will
miserably fail"
Brain energy is the creator OF prosperity,
OF wealth, of progress, of improvements, and
OF successful business enterprises, and un-
fortunately for humanity it is also used 70
cypress. to plunder, and to destroy the op
portunities of others. To tax brain energy
through an income tax means to tax the sue
cess of money makers, to levy toll on their
incomes and use it to tighten the burdens of
less fortunate people. 1t is a just method of
collecting revenue from men who build for
tunes from the labor of others and of apply
ing that revenue to assist in defraying the
expenses of government.
An income tax is right because it taxes the
strong to support the weak. and while in
theory it may seem wrong to compel sue
.ess!u person to contribute a moiety Of his
success to the support of another, yet it is in
ig.i accordance with the doctrine of political
equity
II Senator Hill would temper his zeal in the
defense of capital with desire to assist the
needy he would be ardent advocate of the
income tax. Not one of the thousands on
whom the income tax would levy a toll would
seriously feel a loss. Itwould be like dipping
bucket into the sea compared to the income
created from the labor of others, and on which
the tax was levied. Senator Hill should also
remember that this tax is to Tighten tariff
taxation, lessen the power of trusts, and
make the cost OF living cheaper to the work
ing classes of the United States.
The Washington times., 1894-06-24
DOWN WITH THE TRUSTS.

Congress has duty to perform before the
tariff bill becomes a law that should not be
neglected Trusts should be exterminated
and as tariff legislation alone will accomplish
that purpose the present tariff bill should be
amended while there is yet opportunity, so
that such of them as are detrimental TO pub
lie interests may be wiped cut of existence.
Like gigantic leeches, trusts are absorbing
the Substance from the prosperity of the gen.
eral public, and as employers of labor they are
one of the causes for discomfort among wage
earners. They control the manufacture and
sale Of sugar, glass. steel and iron products,
Oil whisky, starch, many kinds of wooden and
cotton goods, and other necessary commodi-
tics, and their power is absolute where a pro-
tective tariff prevents foreign competition.
They restrict production. increase prices, cut
down wages and control sales to suit their
own convenience. and it is financial ruin for
domestic competition to attempt to defeat
their purpose.
Trusts are the heritage OF the Mckinley
style of protection. They came with high
tariff. and can only be exterminated by re-
moving the cause that brought them into ex-
istence. Their all-powerful influence and
raril growth has given them control of our
markets, and their arrogant demands for ma
iicnai legislation to continue their power has
created sentiment against them thar must
Llt be overlooked.
Congress can give trusts death blow by
lowering thetariff that protects and keeps
them in power. high tariff prohibits for
e N competition and gives trusts control of
oGs markets, and were 1t removed on such
commodities as are controlled by them, for
"A competition would cause them to reduce
'neir prices to legitimate basis or go out
oi trade altogether. The duty of Congress
is simple but important. The tariff schedule
sdould be carefully revised, not In the inter-

RESPONSIBILITY WITHOUT AurHoRIr,

RESPONSIBILITY WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
An abnormal condition of things is revealed
through the statements made to THE TIMES
by Health Officer Hammett. That an official
charged with the preservation of the public
health should be without authority to enforce
the most necessary regulations, is an anom-

DR.. Hammett has been successful in abating

The physicians of the District were justified
in their indignation at the existence of these
menaces to the public health, and their de-
mand for their speedest possible removal

Health Officer Hammett, however. is not CEN

either upon the common sense or the ignorance
of those with whom. on this particular subject,
he is brought in contact.

IN THE PUBLIC PARKS
WITH DOGS AND BABIES

1t is curious to see the public drinking
fountains in the park, where children and
dogs enjoy Uncle Sans hospitality.
Within fifteen minutes l saw six children
and i've dogs drinking alternately. The chill
dren were too small to hold the cup under the
fountain, SO they dipped water out of the
basin.
One laborer stopped to wash his hands, an
other washed his shoes by dipping his hands
in the basin "a child put his lrowsy head into
the basin, where black and white. clean and
unclean children drank alter the dogs in
happy unconsciousness.

causes and conditions which produce typhoid

that the water is running freely.

The watchman in Farragut square says the

are constant care and nuisance.
Strange is it not that the economical
guardians of the government can tolerate the
destruction OF so much property by the dogs
in this city. One watchman Says that in the
small park he has in chargs-475 plants were
destroyed in week by the dogs. and great

more destruction with all the vigilance he can
