tenances and implements of each in Or
der to save labor, time and expense.
The political change in the administra-
ton Of gov. rnment does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, and ready to pre-
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de-
ter him from quickly conceiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrep-
ancies. Too great care can not be ex-
ercised in choosing q competent and

Of the government are they who cry
aloud, and speak not against paternal-
ism; when it is asked to do any thing,
that would be OF any use to the
general public, but the moment their
rights are endangered. they rush
l.eadlong and ask the government to
take charge of their interest, and pro-
tcct it for them. Government at once
takes holt, applies business principles
stops stealing and soon has every
thing in good shape, and turns over
the property to them again. At the
same time just let u reformer say one
word about government doing the
whole thing for the benefit of all and
a prolonged yell goes up from tbs
same crowd, Of socialism, anarchy,

their side, what are United States
Courts for any way of late? Nothing
more than huge collection agencies

ANOTHER MANIFESTO.
DE CANA Declares That to Establish u
Monarchy is Not Their Intention.


Copyright 1871 by the United Press)
Rio DE JANEIRo, Jan. 2.-Admiral
De Cana, in command OF the insurgent
fleet in the harbor, published yesterday
Q manifesto which was intended to
counteract the effect of his celebrated
declaration of month ago in favor of
the monarchy. This declaration has
weakened the cause OF the insurgents
greatly in tho last three or four weeks
and has alienated from Mello and CANA
several officers whom they believed
had been their trusted friends and
allies.
Among tho people at large it's effects
havo been still moro unfavorable TO the
insurgents cause. Consequently, in
his manifesto yesterday, Admiral Da
CANA assorted that his former declara-
zion was not q monarchist document.
This d. claration, as we'll as other
papers attributed to him, he said, in the
manifesto of yesterday. had been al
tered and printed in falsiied copies.
He had not declared for the monarchy,
but intended merely to ask the people
of Brazil what form OF republican gov
eminent they wanted. Other interpre-
tations of his declaration had not been
m ade in good faith.
The last manifesto has fallent nat.
Friends Of the republic regard it as a
passing manoeuvre TO win support to
the insurgents cause. While not gain
ing for the insurgents any new repub-
lican friends the manifesto has
disgusted many official supporters as
the monarchists are thoroughly dis
gusted with Gama's backdown.

Committee Reach Conclusions
WASHINGTON, Jan. "A per cent.
tax on incomes above 81 900; an add
tional tax of 10 cents a gallon OH
whiskey and a tax Of , cents pack on
playing cards was the decision reached
by tho Democratic mem bers OF the WAYS
and means committee at their meeting
held in the Treasury Department to-day.
This conclusion was not unexpec ted in
asmuch as the comm ittee have been
known for some time to be evenly di-
vided on the proposition to tax incom es,
with Turner, of Georgia, occupying the
only position of doubt.
When Chairman Wilson put the propo.
sltion to a vote, six of the eleven Repre-
sentatives present voted yea. These
were Nc ~illin, Bynum. Tarsney, Whit
ing, Bryan and Turner, and it was car
ried.
The TAX applies to the net earnings of
corporations as we'll as to private in
comes. 1t does not, however, apply to
inheritances although that suggest ion
was ono Of the earliest advanced when
the matter first came up for considera-
ton in the committee a month ago.
