STATE SENATOR RAINRs, of New York,
In speaking of his bill for raising reve-
nue. in the empire state. says: 1.-The
bill taxes the seller of Intoxicating
liquors only and it will raise approx
mately IS, 900. 600 in revenue. The man.
ufacturer of liquors ought to be made
to pay as much as the seller. Before
I retire from my term as senator !
hope not one dollar will have to
be raised by direct taxation for state
purposes. The inheritance tax, the
corporation tax, the excise tax and the
manufacturers tax ought to bring in
the SIS, 600, 600 required to run the state
Rovernment"
