The President and the Income Tax.

There is one feature about the preSi-
dents letter that we are sure will not
be understood by the people, and we re-
greet that he was not more explicit about
| it. In writing to Mr.. Wilson he says:
| You know cow much I deprecated the
| incorporation into the proposed bill of the
| income tax feature.
In his message read at the assembling
| of congress last December President
| Cleveland spoke as follows on the in
! come tax, commencing the wisdom Of
| the insertion of the tax in the bill of
| the ways and means committees:
The (way and mears) committee, after
full consideration and to provide against 81
| temporary deficiency which may exist be-
fore the business of the country adjusts
itself to the rev tariff schedules, has
wisely embraced in it's plans a few
additional internal revenue taxes, including
q small tax upon incomes derived from
certain corporate investments. These new
assessments are not absolutely and easily
borne, but they have the further merit
of being such as can be RENTED without
unfavorabe business disturbances when
ever the necessity for their imposition no
longer exists.
There is an air of mystery about this
income tax matter that is not at all sat
iSfactory. For instance here in Atlanta
and in other places, the newspapers
which have assumed to speak for MI.
Cleveland have time and again entered
Il solemn pledge that the president IA

Mr.. Wilson he ''deprecates the insertion

| committee which wisely embraces i'll
| it's plans Il few additional internal reve-
nue. taxes, including a small tax upon
incomes derived from certain corporate

| This is the worst kind of an income

would be subject to tax. This would
not be right nor do we believe that 1t
was the purpose of the presidents su%-
gestion to so restrict the operation OF

We trust, therefore, in order that more

! the president will take the bull by the
/ horns and let congress understand Just
exactly what he would like to see 1t do
rs regards not only the tariff, but the
financial question, the 10 per cens re-
peal and the income tax. For the sake
of party harmony and in the hope that
we may arrive at some definite basis
of understanding by which the party
can get together, we should like to see
more light thrown on the situation. be

Less Money, More BaYonets.

| Less Money, More Bayonets.
We are not surprised to find The At
lanta Journal favoring a standing army
we now have under arms. This is what
it now calls for.
The advocates of the gold standard
are all rapidly coming to the conclusion
that it will require bayonet rule in this
| country, if their oppressive policy is
| continued.
Less money, more bayonets! This is
| the position Of the gold sharks and the
politicians and newspapers on their
side
The people are opposed to large stand
ing armies. We made this one of our
grievances in the declaration of indie
pendence and we have been on that line
ever since. The democratic party has
always held that a large standing army
would be Il menace to the reserved
rights of the states, and to the people.
When we had numerous territories and
Il large number of Indians there was
some necessity for good sized army.
But we have fewer Indians now, and
nearly all of the former territories are
now states with their own militia. The
proposed increase of the federal army
can only excite suspicion and alarm.
In 1868 congress reduced the army to
25,000, and it was sufficient during all
the reconstruction troubles. Why in
crease it now?
The question is easily answered. The
gold standard leaders fear that the con-
traction of the currency will cause fur
Their discomfort and distress. They dis
trust the states, and have no faith in
the people, and they would overawe the
masses by scattering bayonets and
Gatling guns all over the land.
The Journal is right from its point of
view. If we are to have currency CON
traction, with all its evils in the shape
Of Il general shrinkage of values, low
wages, blighted industries and stag

to protest very vigorously and endeavOr
to right their wrongs at the ballot box.
In order to maintain the gold standard
against the will of the masses it will
then become necessary to suppress free
speech control the elections by force,
support a big standing army, and null
| tply our prisons ana pOorhoUses.
Less money. more bayonets! The two

! it will prove very expensive in the end.
| Before we resort to such dangerous eX-

our people so busy, prosperous and hap

If we restore our American financial

MAILING FORD.

The committee appointed at the re- cent special meeting visited the Horace Austin farm Saturday and looked over the proposed additional water shed for Paugh pond. There seems to be no l doubt that the farm can be utilized | at comparatively small expense, out l side the cost of the purchase of the farm itself, to advantage to increase the source of water supply, and from the present condition 1t is evident that Igsome steps must be taken to increase the supply to keep up with the increas- ing demand. The committee are not yet
 ready to make any report.
 The business outlook at present is decidedly more favorable. The dealers throughout the country appear to have regained more confidence, and are Buy ing more freely and are stocking up for the fall and holiday trade. If their cus- | toners will buy the goods then more will be ordered from the manufacturers, and business will continue to improve, if not, then the business times will be short lived.
