The Income TnX.


The determination OF the ways and
means committee. to tax private IN
comes as well as those OF corporations,
is a defeat for the administration, which
strongly urged the restriction of the tax
to corporations.
President Cleveland went so far as to
say that the committee had resolved on
this tax. Subsequent events show that
the President was mistaken in this, also
in the notion that he could force the
committee to do it. It may be that the
administration will find its sweet re-
venge in defeating the proposition in
the house, in the senate or in the white
house.
The history of the income tax in this
country is that it is a war tax aud al
ways odious. The Democratic ways
and means committee will ask the Dem
ocratic Congress to impose this tax in
a time Of profound quiet, when 1--WE are
at peace with all the world and the rest
OF maukind." Yet the Democratic par
ty continues to crate against "war
taxes" What a funny party 1t is, to be
sure.

Work for vhee!lnn,s Nccdv

The relief committee is on. the right
track Guided by its experience thus
far md BY the laudable desire OF honest
men able to work, the committee will
endeavor to come to an understanding
with the city which will open tho way
to do work that otherwise would not be
done, and make payment out Of the re-
lief storehouse.
It is hoped in this way to do some
useful public work and at the same
time relieve the pressing needs OF men
who greatly prefer employment to
charity. II the committee shall find
the cooperation on this line which it
expects, the system OF relief will leave
little to be desired.
til the committees aim to provide
work Tor all the needy who cannot find
work for themselves.

CLASH OE AurunnIrY

Al clash of authority has arisen be-
tween the Township Clerk aud Bor-
ough Council. The Council claims the
right 10 choose the polling place in
fehn's Grove and designated the May
of's Office. Township Clerk James b.
Springer, after consulting the Werts
election law and other officials located
Tie polling place in Odd Fellows Hall
where it has always been. The cleo
ton law states that the city Clerks and
township Clerks shall select suitable
polling places and notify the election
boards thirty days before election. Bor-
oughs are not mentioned in the Werts
ballot reform law. Mr.. Springer
was guided by the opinion of the cleo.
ton board that the Mayors Office was
an unsuitable place.
On The other hand the Borough law
states that the Township Clerk shall
designate where the first borough cleo.
ton shall be held and thereafter the
borough Clerk shall give legal notice
OF the time and place of succeeding
elects. 1t is more than probable
that borough law relates only to local
borough elections. AS the fall election
is general and paid for by the County
it does not financially affect the borough
where the election is held. But the
dignity of the Borough authorities has
been infringed upon by the ol~d-fashion-
ed Office of Township Clerk and some
want to know by what right a foreigner
has authority in our borough.
The borough Council have received q
letter from their attorney stating that
the BorCdgh Clerk has authority in the
Borough. The attorney of the Town.
ship Committee has not been, heard
FROM. MI. Springer has the booths and
ballot box as the borough authorities
refused to take charge of them last
