Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-01

THE legislature at Springfield, ILL.,,
were interested by bill presented by
Mr.. Merriam. The bill is for the repeal
of an act passed in 1916, and another in
1861, in which Bishops of the Roman
Catholic church were Empowered to hold
and convey real estate for the benefit of
the church. 1t is claimed by those who
are opposed to this bill that it originated
in the camp of the American Protective
Association. BE that as it may, the sta
tistics brought forth by Mr.. Merriam in
defense of his position are worthy of in
vestigation He states that the Catholic
churches of Illinois to-day own and con-
troll, in the immediate neighborhood of
S65,00O,00O worth of property, wholly
exempt from taxation. His position is
that the law should be so arranged that
this denomination should not have any
more power than another. While it
ready in hand, the bill offered, will not
permit them to secure land for specula-
tive purposes. He further says: "The
privileges granted are extraordinary
powers never granted to any church in
this country before or since the passage
of these acts. The effect has been to
enable the Catholic church in this state
to acquire lands of immense amount
and value and to hold them often for
speculative purposes merely without
paying any taxes to the state. The OBJ
ject of my bill is to repeal these unjust
acts and to place the Catholic church on
the same plane in future with other
churches in respect to their power to
hold and acquire lands. The bill is not

Republicans and the Duty on Sugar.

Republicans and the Duty on Sugar.
The democratic party made grlevous
mistakes in enacting the tariff law, but
now that it is willing to acknowledge its
blunders and to repeal a particularly
obnoxious section il ought to be allowed
to do so. The republican party has moth
ing to gain by obstructing the repeal of
the clause imposing a diiferential duty
on sugar
Earlier in the session. when the dem
Ocrats apparently had no plan to offer,
the suggestion of the republicans to re-
move the cause for hostility to Ameri-
can meats by authorizing the president
to renew the reciprocity treaties was
wise. But at this stage of the session
the attempt in the senate to substitute
for the simple repeating bill that has al
ready passed the house a measure in
vOlying reciprocity, the bounty on sugar
and restoration of part of the old duties
on lumber and wool, can simply have
the effect of preventing any action at ALL
The differential duty on sugar is caus-
ing injury to American commerce, and
its existence places the United States in
a humiliating position.
