SHIFTING THE INCOME TAX.

A Connecticut corset factory whose
proprietors have insisted upon. a
protective tariff upon the foreign
product in order that they may
pay their girls employed in making
these Indispensable articles of wom-
ems wearing apparel wages which
will elevate them above the pauper
level, has notified it's workwomen of
proposed reduction in wages of 8
per cent because of the income tax
If an 8 per cent reduction in wages
is necessary to equalize a per cent
tax on incomes, it follows as math-
ematical certainty that the income
Of this corset company subject to
taxation is four times the amount
of its expenditure for wages If
this is the case the necessity of a re-
ducuon is not apparent. But this
is probably another of those cases
described by Mckinley when en-
ployers refuse to apply the golden
rule, and take every opportunity and
preteXt to reduce wages. To the
girls whose wages are thus cut in Or
der to pay the taxes of their en-
ployer we commend the advice Nc
K1nley gave the Akron WOrkmen.
to go out and start a factory and
make corSets themselves. This is
cold comfort, but it is all that there
is to give.

TRIED ONCE AND FAILED

The extinguished gentlemen who
recently met in Washington and
formed the Bimetallic party and
nominated one Sibley as a candi-
date for president, having in view
the conversion of the Democratic
party to their doctrine of free COIN
age, must have forgotten the en-
phatic rejection of that policy bv the
last national convention. In that
convention Mr.. Patterson, of Col
orado, offered an amendment to the
platform proposing to insert the
word free so as to make the con-
Vention declare for the 'tfree COIN
age of gold and silver, without dis
elimination against either metal or
charge for mintage." In his speech
supporting his amendment Mr.. Pat.
terson declared that there were
millions of people whose votes the
party was seeking who agreed with
them. The ayes and nays were taken
on the amendment and it was over
whelmingly rejected. If the Col
orado tail could not wag that con-
vention, the Nebraska tail will he
equally impOtent.

HERESY IN MICHIGAN.

The Republican congressional con-
Vention held in Kalamazoo the other
day to nominate a congressman to
fill the vacancy caused by the pro-
motion of Burrows to the senate
adopted a silver plank declaring for
the largest possible use of silver con-
sistent with the maintenance of our
national currency, which, of course,
means nothing, but closed their de-
mand with this significant sentence,
which we commend to the attention
of the Pioneer Press, so certain that
the silver heresy is limited to the
Democratic party. The Michigan
Republicans demanded that "silver
should be restored to it's time-hon-
bred position in the nations finance. +"
Stripped of its rhetoric this means a
restoration to free mintage at ratio
OF 16 to l. 1t is only significant as
showing how this silver question is
cutting athwart party lines.

TESTED ARMoR PLATE,

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE navy
department accepted els tons of Har-
veyized nickel steel armor, nearly half
Of the side armor for the battleship
Oregon, made by the Carnegie COM
company, as the result Of a trial of an
eighteen-inch plate at Indian Head
today. The plate received two shots
from a 112-inch gun. The first was
fired at velocity of 1,465 per second,
and smashed to pieces on the face of
the plate, which was scaled a little
at the point of contact, but was not
cracked. The second shot had avelocity
of 1926 feet. This penetrated nine
inches and then broke up, but it
cracked the plate from top TO bottom
The plate, however, was pronounced
to be of good quality. A trial was also
made of a small Chase-Gantt plate
composed of a cast steel back, fronted
with high chrome steel, also cast A
six-inch shot was fired at the plato
with a velocity of 200 feet. The shot
was broken up, but the plate was bad
ly cracked and a corner was broken
off. The makers of the plate professed
satisfaction with the test, which was
better than that obtained at Sandy
Hook last year. Further trial could
not be had because of the smallness of
the plate.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE post
Office department is now making more
than 400 appointments of mail weighers
in Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas. Ar
kansas. Indian Territory, Wisconsin.
Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana.
The department regulates it's payments
to the railway companies which carry
the mails in bulk by q periodical weigh
ing. The plan is to weigh average loads
at season of average activity, and
the weights Of the several classes of
mali matter thus obtained are accepted
as Stndard to govern the compensa-
ton OF the companies until the next
Weighing takes place. The process re-
qulres good judgment, care, accuracy
and an intelligent understanding of the
general scheme of transportation. In
stead of appointing outsiders on the
recommendation of members of con-
gresS and party managers to do the
work, the department last year took
the men from the head of the eligible
registers in the railway mail service of
men examined by the civil service COM
mission. They did this voluntarily be-
cause, as stated by the second assist
ant postmaster general, they were thus
able to command a more efficient class
of men than could be procured through
other methods. The appointment of
men thus examined was, he said, found
a decided success, so much so that the
opinion was general that the new sys-
tenn should be permanently enforced.
The department has called upon the
commissioner for 600 names from which
to make the 400 appointments, and the
persons taken will be employed for
about thirty-three days

A STATE OF SIEGE

will be proclaimed. The government
is considered strong"
In reply to this curious document
Senior DIR. Amaro Cavalcante says: ct
is really wonderful that a newspaper
of Paul (state), the Correro De Cam
pinas, referring to the plan of a con-
spiracy, should have the bad taste to
affirm that proofs were in my power.
'Of a certainty, the Aforementioned
newspaper could not knock at a door
less disposed to shelter it in this re-
spect, as L am one of those intimately
and firmly convinced that there was
never and there is no such plot, unless
it be in the brain of those who invented
it, and perhaps with malevolent in
tentionS or adversaries of the repub-
lic."
In regard to this, O. Seculo says:
Everyone should now know that all
who We're friends to the republic and
put themselves beside Marshal F'loriano
Peixoto in defense of the legal govern
ment are now held to be conspira tors
and insurgents by Messrs. Carlo. An

impenitent Sebastists and monarchists.
The two former have had every his
toric republican dismissed from the po-
lice department, and the last has sworn
that none but monarchists shall be
placed in the navy
DR.. Prudente de Moraes, president of
the republic Of the United States of
Brazil, has now been just three months
in power. The president is a republic
an, full of patriotic desire to unite all
parties under the legal government of
the republic.
In the army all the young officers
who served the legal government so
faithfully are being punished. One cap
tain, Robert Dumesne, was court mar
tailed because at q lunch of the bat
talon officers he drank to FIoriano
Peixoto's health, and yesterday one of
the delegates of police at the central
station on Lavrididio street, in view of

and the other delegates, fifteen in num-
Der, snatched the portrait Of the ex-
president from the wall, crushed it on

that it could not appear in print.
DR.. Garcez Palha. well known
monarchist, is the secretary and chief
adviser of the minister of marine

York senator has not an equal i'm the

the situation in the upper house,

disagrees. He attends strictly to
business; no real-estate deals nor
stock-jobbing operations ever reach
him, as they do many of the men
who are his colleagues.
When Senator Chandler made his
wanton and scurrilous attack on

tleman made his deal with the Re-

leveled at a member of the senate
by colleague. When it was over
Chandler attempted to withdraw
that portion of his remarks refer
ring to Senator Hill, or rather to
state that he did not mean them in
an offensive sense; but Senator Hill
withdrew or qualified nothing. By
his timely speech he turned Chandler
into an object of ridicule and pity,
and turned the sympathy of the
public to the senators so unwar-
rantably attacked.
Although the Democrats will be
in the minority in the next senate,
David B. Hill will be the master
of that body, and if he does not win
the leadership, of his party every
where in the nation it will be passing
strange. He has placed Senator
German on very high shelf, and
no amount of wriggling and squirm-
ing will restore the tricky Mary

The Incidence of Taxation


By direct taxes in the constitution
wrote Gallatin, those are meant which
are raised on the capital or revenue of
the people. By direct, such as are
raised on their expense.
A better definition of the difference
both in theory and in effect of the in
come tax and of a protective tariff for
rational revenue could not be devised.
Inc protective tariff is a tax on what
even the poorest citizen must paw ont
Tor the necessaries of life, and the citi-
zen,no matter how poor, must paw that
tax IN the increased price of what he
buys. An income tax is a tax not ON
what a man pays for necessaries. hut
on his income above limit clearly be-
You'd what is required for necessaries
Inc protective tariff tax is a yoke on
the neck of labor; the income tav
reaches only sum above the average
income of labor.

How far the Republican party in
this state has moved away from it's
former position on the tariff is in
Dictated by comparison of the plat
forms now with those of former and
better years. In 1882 Jim Wakefield
was nominated for congress in the
Second district on a platform whose
tariff plank read as follows: ct is
the duty of congress to so modify
our internal revenue and tariff laws
as to permit articles of prime neces-
sity to come into the country free
from oppressive and unjust duties.
and to impose upon Injuries the bur-
den, SO far as possible, of furnish
ing a revenue for the support of the
government. The faith of those
days is become the heresy of these.
