THE INCOME TAX AND LIFE INsUR-
ANCE

LNOOME lAA AND lNSUk-
ANCE.
The life insurance companies are going
to be hit pretty hard if Mr.. Vests
amendment to the income tax feature of
the tariff bill is adopted, as it undoubt-
eddy will be if the bill passes at all. This
amendment provides that
There shall be levied and collected
tax of two per cent. per annum on the
net profits or income above ordinary
working or operating expenses of all
banks. banking institutions, trust COM
panies, saving institutions, fire, marine,
life, and other insurance companies,
railroad, canal, turnpike, canal naviga-
ion, slack water, telephone, telegraph.
express. electric light, gas, water, street
railway companies and all other corpora
lions, companies, or associations doing
business for profit in the United States
no matter how created and organized.
All the profits of the companies :,
whether paid out to policy holders or
kept as reserve, are to pay this
tax of two per cent. OF course this
will all come out of the policy holders,
who are by no means rich people or peo.
pie with incomes above $4,000 annually.
But this is not all. Under the provision
taxing inheritances it is believed the
government can collect tax on all death
claims paid. That is to say, if man
with policy of $4,000 dies his estate
would have to pay $500. 1t is said that
under the operation of these two proyis-
ions of the law-the tax on profits and
the tax on interchangeable regular life
insurance companis of New York State
alone will have to pay 1880, 900 to the
government annually, all of which of
course will come eventually out of the
pockets of the policy holders or their
heirs.
And while the holders of life insurance
policies are mulcted with this heavy
fine, the sugar men get an additional
duty on refined sugar to protect them
against injurious competition. Yet the
Democratic party is the party of the
people, and is always looking out for
the interests of the poor man.

of this plan is to diminish sales. inasmuch
as the smaller the sales the less the
labor, while the income is not affected.
The plan has been in vogue in Norway
and Sweden for twenty years, and the
consumption of spirits has decreased
greatly during that period. The friends of
the system say that this decrease is
largely due to it's working, but probably
investigation in the home of the law
would develop disagreement on this
point, just as inquiry in Maine will
disclose radical difference of opinion of
the effect of prohibition on consumption
of liquor. However as it is practically
admitted that the local option system
now in vogue in Massachusetts is not
great success nothing will be lost by
giving this new system a trial. Wheth-
er it is adapted to this country, and
whether it really has the merits claimed
for it experiment will determine better
than anything else.
