The Sensation of the Week.

This week has been one of great political
sensations, the parallel Of which can prob
ably not be found in the history of Amer
lean politics; and the situation is such every
Thoughtful Democrat and every good citi-
zen must regret.
Last week Mr.. Wilson, the Chairman of
the House Ways and Means Committee,
concluded speech on the report of the
tariff conference committee, that no agree
ment had been reached, by having read a
letter to him from the President. That
latter reflected severely on the Senate, and
il was evident storm was brewing. The
proceedings in the Senate the next day Fri
day. showed how deeply the Senate Demo-
Gratis felt, and some sharp criticisms were
made upon the letter itself and the impro-
prietyof its being made part ofthe official
records. The Senate adjourned until Mon
day, when the storm broke in all its fury.
Senator German made the leading speech,
in which he stated that the Senate bill was
the best that could be passed. and that 1t
had the endorsement of both the Secretary
of the Treasury and the President in all
essential points, including the sugar, iron
coal schedules He called as witnesses
Senators Vest, Harris and Jones, all Of
whom corroborated his statements.
The speech was the most remarkable
that has been delivered in the Senate, and
was listened to with the closest attention.
Every Senator was in his seat, half of the
Representatives were crowded in the Senate
chamber, and the galleries were packed, in
anticipation of interesting developments.
Senator Hill, between whom and the Pres
ident there has been fierce antagonism for
some time, created another sensation by
taking up the gauntlet for the President on
Tuesday and making strong defence of
him.
No matter how people may view the con-
tents of the Presidents letter, so far as it
relates to the subject of tariff reform, there
can be no question that his reflection on the
upper house of the Legislative branch of the
government was gross improperly, and
his consent to its publicity and Mr.. Wilson $
act in causing i. to be read in the House
we're two blunders without excuse. 1t is
the Presidents prerogative to advise with
the legislative branch of the government,
not to abuse and criticise. No Senator
with the proper appreciation of the
dignity of his position, and of the rights
of the Senate, could be expected to pass
unnoticed the Presidents criticism. The
President, therefore, was the aggressor, and
he and Mr.. Wilson are responsible for the
nnseemly and discouraging party wrangle
The breach made between the President
and the Democrats of the Senate for the
time looked like it was too wide to be
closed, but it is hoped that now that each
side has told its story the two houses will
come together and agree upon a tariff bill
that can pass both bodies, receive execu-
tive approval and meet with general en-
dorsement. The country is anxiously
awaiting settlement of the tariff question,
and much longer delay will be very detri-
mental to Democratic prospects at the com
ing congressional elections.

Persons who have houses to furnish will
be clad to know that at the recent semi
annual sale at Grand Rapids, Michigan, the
greatest furniture manufacturing centre in
the country, prices ruled twenty-five per
cent. less than one year ago. Dispatches
state that the sales have been greatly in
excess of that of six months ago, and the
outlook is good for large trade next fall.

A republic has been proclaimed in Ha-
wall, but it was done by the same people
who, backed by United States marines and
calling guns, drove the Queen from her
throne eighteen months ago. Annexation
20 the United States is still being agitated.
as the usurpers do not feel safe in their
position without the protecting hand OF
this government. The United States have
enough conflicting interests now, without
adding an homogeneous population Of
group of islands lying three thousand miles
away in the Pacific.

The Income Tax in 1870.

The Chattanooga Times recalls some his
tory in relation to the income tax. The
lines says:
1.-The Senate of the United States having
before it bill to repeal the income tax law
of 1862, on June %, 1870, Senator John
Sherman said "Here we have in New York
Mr.. Aston with an income of millions derived
from real estate, accumulated year after year
by the mere family pride of accumulation,
and VIC have alongside of him poor man re-
ceiving 81, 900 year. What is the discrlm-
ination of the law in that case? It's altogether
against the poor man. Everything that he
consumes we tax, and yet are afraid to tax
the income of Mr.. Aster. Is there any JUS
tice in it? Why, sir, the income tax is the
only one that tends to equalize these burdens
between the rich and the poor" Now Sen
ator Sherman opposes the income tax pro-
posed, that will collect about 100000 900,
whereas the tax of 1922 gathered in as high
as ST., ZOO, 900 in one year, from people
thai could less afford to pay that than our
rich men can now afford to pay 5O,O0O,O OO.
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, was equally
strong in opposition TO the repeal OF that
tag. in 1870, with Senator Sherman. The
Secretary of the Treasury, Hon. George 3.
Boutwell,, of Massachusetts; the Commission
er of Internal Revenue, David A. Wells, OF
Connecticut, were strong auVocabes Vi tne
tax. Nearly all of these, then eminent he
nnhlicans. wanted the tax made permanent
mart of our revenue system. The tax those
Republican statemen then sought to renew
and make steady thing of, levied q per
cent. on all incomes above $1,000 year.
The onerous income tax in 1870 was abol.
ished by one majority in the Senate and
by one majority in the House. Congress
WINS then more than three fourths Repub-
Ican. There was slight opposition to the
tax from New York. The only New Eng
lander who made strong fight against it
was Senator Buckingham, from Connecticut.
We still think it may be well that the people
| should not be allowed to forget the history OF
the old tax, and the relations of persons and
| parties thereto. We especially protest that
the bowling of Eastern editors and poiiticians
to the effect that the levy is popglistic in
character is nonsense, worse still, simple
falaahOod
