INCOME TAX LEGISLATION.

An eastern exchange says that the
country has its last income tax, what
ever may be the position taken by
Justice Jackson on the question of the
constitutionality of the present law.
There is no room for doubt on this
point. OF course the element of the
community which the present tax
strikes is small in numbers, and every
other law of this sort which was ever
proposed, except that in operation
during the war and for few years
afterward, would touch only a minute
fraction of the people. This is one of
the reasons, however, why such law
is Objectionable. 1t is class legisla-
tion, and on that account is contrary
to the theory and spirit of our institu-
tiOns; it is, also, to some extent, sec
tional, and, as consequence, it is de-
moralizing and dangerous.
Such tax, for these reasons, is sure
to be assailed by. all the resources
which the class Disseminated against
can command twill be attacked in
the courts, and the officials charged
with its execution will thus be seri-
ously impeded. 1t will be evaded by
many persons wherever evasion can be
resorted to safely, and the chances for
evasion of an impost of this kind will
always be numerous. The greater the
amount of the tax person owes under
such law the greater the opportunity
will be for him to dodge some of it. 1t
was estimated by the government Off
cials in the civil war days that Is or 20
per cent. of the tax due under the law
was shirked. If that was the case
when the proportion of persons af-
fected was far larger than it is now, or
than it would be under any law which
could have any chance of enactment
in time of peace, and, consequently,
less open to the imputation of being
class legislation, what proportion of
the taxes under the present act will be
evaded?
A law which encounters such active
and powerful opposition defeats the
very purpose for which it is enacted.
The cost of enforcing it is so great
that the benefit which it brings to the
treasury is trifing. Even during the
war days, when every available source
of revenue was necessary to meet the
most urgent of the national expendi-
lures, and when patriotism demanded
that each citizen contribute his quota |
to the common fund, the government |
was compelled to spend many millions |
of dollars in the courts to enforce its
claims. Many suits hung on for years
after the repeal of the act, and some
of them had to be abandoned by the |
authorities for want of available evil
dence, or because the estate attached |
had got out of reach of the law. On |
the score of economy alone such law
is unwise, and it is safe to say that an
other will never be enacted except |
under stress of actual war like that |
which provoked the earlier impost.

TAKE THE WITNESS.

The American Economist presents a
few figures that may set the free trad
ers thinking, says the Inter Ocean.
They tell us, with many therefores and
wherefores and becauses, and in in
geniously constructed syllogisms, that
free trade ''inevitably must" enlarge
the commerce of any nation that adopts
it. 1t is painfully true that in Amer
lea every approach to free-trade policy
has been followed by restriction Of
commerce, depression Of agriculture,
and reduction,of wages; but the free
traders tell us that If we had but per-
severed in well-doing all would have
been well, that if we had undergone a
few more years of famine we should
have entered lustrum of fatness.
These, however, are generalities of our
own suggestion; the American Econ
onist's figures are English.
Great Britain has had long era of
free trade When that era began she
easily was the greatest manufacturer
of iron. No other nation came near to
her in extent of production, exporta-
tion, or domestic consumption of iron
products. While she has been free
trading Germany and the United
States have been protecting. The
consequence, or at any rate the coin
cidence, is that America has become q
greater manufacturer of iron than
Britain, and Germany has become al
most as.great. These, however, also
are generalities of our own suggestion.
The american Economists figures do
not deal with British production, but
with British expectations.
1t is of the essence of the free traders
sophistry that international commerce
is conducted on the principle of village
trade; that as one village grocer en-
ploys DIR. Smith because Smith buys
coffee from him, while the other grocer
employs DIR. Jones because Jones buys
coffee from him, 80 Great Britain will
buy more corn from us if we will buy
more cloth from it. This is nonsense.
Nations buy where they can buy most
cheaply; city people buy thus; it is in
hamlets only that the free traders
theory of swapping is reduced to prac-
tice. These, still, are generalizations
of our own.
Now we will take up the figures pre-
sented by the american Economist. In
1884 Great Britain imported iron,
mainly in its raw state, together with
tin, coal, and other minerals, to the
value OF s3s9, TIA, $40, and in 1894 to the
value of e4OS, sos, 718. She admitted
this iron duty free. Now, according
to the free-trade theory, the nations
whose raw iron wus admitted duty
free would manifest their gratitude by
buying more freely of British man.
ufactured iron. This is another sug-
gestion of our own; we hasten to other
figures presented by the Economist. In
1884 the British exports of iron, steel,
tin plate. and other hardware amounted
to 3,496, ,532 tons. In 1894 they had
fallen to 1855, 125 tons. This, says the
Economist, indicates yearly shrink
age of $50, ,OO0, 900 in the value of Brit
ish exports of ironware.
Messieurs, the free traders, "Take
the witness!"

It is not improbable, says a Wheeling
member OF the association. that The
bankers will pass resolutions touching
on the money question. and the senti.
