Mrs. Mary Ramer of West Coal street, was

TIE FUTURE OF DEMOCRACY.

Several men writers have recently set
forth with great courage 10 explain the
future OF the Democratic party. There
is 10 more telling what the Democratic
party may be and what part il will take
in the next election than there is in tell
ing whether March 70 next will be a
ste,Iny or clear day.
Tradition has it that the Democratic
party is immortal-but at this time its
coma strongly resembles not a trance,
but death But if the Democratic party
is not dead. it has most surely swallow
ed Populism and lies like a great ser
pent that has eaten its last meal for the
winter. torpid, blind and inactive. No
one is prepared to say now that Delloc
racy has swallowed Populism- Popu-
lism, it is true, surrendered ali its re-
form tenets in return for the Democrat
ic adoption of the free coinage of silver
16 to l. But at this time no one can say
that the government ownership OF rail-
roads and female suffrage, both Popu-
list tenets, have been dropped forever.
The Populist party'S fidelity to these
principles must surely mean the par
ticipation of Democratic party in our
next national campaign.

The government viii certainly not be
held-up and sand-bagged out of $500 for

However. the demand which caps the
climax is this:
ave viii never consent to territorial
government or a union with Oklaho-

This apparently means that these In
dams will not agree 10 being attached TO
Oklahoma territory or to Oklahoma
state This is even more insulting and
ridiculous than the other assertion that
the Indian citizens viii be harmed by
immediate and close contact with nu-
merous impercunious persons who have
been impoverished in other states.
Statehood for oklahoma is at this
time some distance removed. But when
il does come this government. if it sees
MT, will add the Indian territory TO Okla
hoila. An order from the Indians tell.
ing the United States what the Indian
will agree, consent or listen to is the
ver.est hogwash and rot The Dawes
commission should brace up and sail
into the Indians The law should be
put down plainly to him and ne should
be put through course OF sprouts.

A CONSTITUTIONAL INCOME TAX.

Representatives and direct taxes
shall be apportioned among the several
states which may be included in this
Union according 10 their respective
numbers" This provision Of the con-
stitution had its origin in the jealous
regard in small states had to protect
themselves against oppression by the
large states. Ii was a feature OF state
rights and by virtue of this provision
direct taxes shall be apportioned &C
cording to population. The fear of the
small states would better have been
entertained by the large states-especial-
ly the rich commonwealth II was the
states with wealth, with citizens having
large incomes which were to protest
against the income tax, levied upon in
comes and not apportioned according TO
population. OF the many legal ques-
tons growing out of an income tax,
whether a tax levied upon an ordinary
income is direct tax" and particular
ly whether tax upon an income grow
ing out of rents of real estate is a
direct tax" are questions for courts.
Whether the early decisions We're better
or worse law than the last decision of
the United States supreme court may
be left TO lawyers and courts.
In this connection there is Il practical
question. The time VIII come when il
viii be necessary to levy other tax than
that upon imports. Tariff taxation will
not always be found 10 be the best or
even an adequate means of raising gov
eminent revenue. There seems little
question that the contingency will hap
pen. unless expenses are much reduced.
which seems improbable, that will re-
quire some sort of taxation aside from
tariff. And the most likely form Of
this taxation viii b. that of the income
| tax. Conservative action in this line
viii be TO amend the national constitu-
ton. Submitting the whole matter TO
the discretion OF congress. The argyll
ments against the income tax that II Is
inQuisitorial and not uniform will have
, small chance 10 stand against the de-
maud that those who are best able 10
bear the burden OF taxation shall be re
qured 10 do So. IL will probably come
also as a part OF the demand which
| finds in the income TAX d means OF
equalizing, in some degree. the differ
enee between the rich and the Lot rich.
The fact that the income tax falls with
UNEQUAL force on different states viii ha

THE SMART ALECK INDIAN.

easily disposed Of. The agricultural
states have favored tariffs-protective
tariffs-content with incidental benefits
while the manufacturing state got the
direct benefits and there is no sufficient
reason why those with large fortunes
and abundant incomes should not de-
vote some of it to the public treasury
for the common good Of the whole ma
ton.
Occasions will come when more reve-
nue. will be needed than can reasonably
be had through tariff and to meet such
occasions the constitution should not
stand in the way OF an income tax. Inc
constitutional object of an income lax
should be removed by amendment
Even admitting that there is no immedi-
ate necessity for an income tax law, the
nation should not be handicapped in this
regard. The jealousy of the small states
or large states, or of that class of per-
sons who have found grave fears Of CEN
trailing power in the hands OF congress
and the government may be put aside
as of small moment as compared to the
danger to the common welfare that may
come in extreme cases when congress
finds itself with powers Of taxation thus
restricted.
