Farming people are going and coming

The Tax on Income.

The Ofegonian has been a consistent
opposer Of the income tax, represent
ing as it does the moneyed interest,
which is always anxious to pay as
little as possible OF the costs OF the
Government which .sustains its prop
erty rights, and it is now suggesting
plans whereby its provisions may be
avoided, il those possessing large in
comes only make use Of their elastic
consciences. The tax on personal in
comes is two per cent. on all amounts
over $4,000. The tax is to be levied
on January LIST, 1895, and is made pay
able on or before July 1st, 1895. 1t is
to be assessed upon the income of the
preceding calender year, which makes
the present incomes available for this
revenue. Five per cent. penalty, and
one per cent. interest per month, are to
be charged on income taxes unpaid.
The Oregonian seems to think that
nobedy-in Oregon at least-has ex-
ceeded the 81 900 limit OF exemption
these hard times; that those who
handle large sums of money will be
able to sum up very large offset as
necessary expenses" connected there
with, embracing interest paid, State or
local taxes, losses, worthless debts, div
idends from corporations which them
selves have paid tax, and the like.
1t seems to think that by the time
business losses and bad debts are esti-
mated, and deducted, there will be
very little income left for the Govern
ment to assess.
The tax paid by corporations is two
per cent. of net profits or income, pay
able same as of individuals. Charita.
BILE and religious corporations are ex-
empt, as are fraternal and mutual in
surance organizations. tits estimated
by the chief of the revenue bureau
that the income from this source will
aggregate many millions OF dollars, but
the Oregomian thinks corporations are
about rs destitute OF soul as individ.
uals, and will be able to show that
their income has been subject to the
same shrinkage as the personal in
come.
The law is to remain in force for
five years, which will be ample time
to test its utility, provided Congress
makes provision by appropriation for
its collection at all.
1t is safe to assert that the income
tax will be popular means of raising
the revenues of the Government, from
the fact that it falls upon those who
are able to pay-those who after all
debts and taxes are paid, still have more
than 81 600 left to" blow in" wherever
they please. 1t is far easier for such
an individual to put up two per cent.
levy on part of his surplus than for the
deliver to pay a tax it supplies on
everything he eats, drinks or wears.
1t seems just, too that he should pay
for the additional protection which
his property holdings require from the
law

The Situation at Pullman.

Gov. Altgeld appeals to the people
OF the State OF Illinois for aid for the
people OF Pullman. He represents
that fully 1000 families are destitute.
The Governor, a few days ago, wrote a
letter to the Pullman Co. suggesting
that as the State had spent $4,000
for protection of their property, and
as both the State and the public had
suffered enough loss on account OF
the disturbances that grew out of the
trouble between the company and
their workman, it would seem proper
that the company make special ef-
fort to care for these people.
Mr.. Pullman, in reply states that
while it has not been represented to
officers of the company by any persons
concerned that there was any such
extended distress at Pullman, he did
not doubt there were many cases
caused 10y the refusal of the employees
for more than p months to earn Of
fered wages of more than $500, 600; and
that such cases have been increased
and made more severe in the persis-
tence of more than $50 of the en-
ployes in refusal to apply for their old
places after the strike was practically
over. They were invited July 16 to
resume work. hut failing to do 80, by
the coming of new men during the
month, their places were filled and
the full force was engaged for all work
hand.
The letter continues: "The sug-
gestion that the work should be d.
vided. that our present employees
should be put on half time in order to
give at least half time for all, was
tried last winter. The result has been
that the gross earnings of various in
dividual employees were last winter so
small as to give an erroneous impress
sion with reference to the insufficiency
of the rest of the wages. The policy
Of the company is now to employ only
as many men as we can furnish work
for ON full time"
To this the Governor replied as fol-
lows: Il see that your company re-
fuses to do anything towards relieving
the situation at Pullman. 1t is not
my business to fix the moral RESPONSE
bility in this case. There are nearly
5000 people suffering for want OF food.
They were your employees. I also as
sumed that as the State had gone to a
large expense to protect your property,
you would not want to have the pub
lie shoulder the burden of relieving
the distress in your town. As you re-
fused to do anything to help the suf-
fering in this case, I am compelled to
appeal to the public"

THE BANK OF ENGLAND.

Something the Matter with the Old Lady
Admitted by the London Times.
LONDON. Jan. 9.-The Times pub
fishes long letter, which is attracting
much attention. 1t deals with the crit
icism of the Bank of England's position
and says that it is true that serious ir-
Irregularities have lately come to light
in the management of the bank, but
that nothing has happened to justify
the language used during the last two
months. 1t continues: st is impossi-
BILE to dispense with the banks service
to the money market. If the bank has
had to keep the crown reserves instead
of pooling their reserves at the bank
they would be obliged to have much
larger reserves than at present
The Times then proceeds to offer
various suggestions tending to improve
the banks position and says that it
must increase its discount business by
encouraging and not by discouraging
the visits of bill brokers. The present
system of changing the governor of
the Bank of England every two years
should be abolished and permanent
official should be provided for in pref
erence to a chief cashier with a high
salary 4 reduction in the average age
of the committee of the treasury who,
according to the Times, are inclined to
be too conservative regarding general
management, is recommended.
