THE OTHER ISSUES.

WIN. the coinage question necessarily
overshadows aE other Issues IN the pres
ent campaign IT muss not be forgotten
that there .rs others prescribed by the
Chicago platform. One Is contained IN
the threat to reorganlze the supreme court
so that q majority can be created which
Will hold that the income tax : ron-
st!iational method by which the Federal
government can raise revenue. THIS de-
mane for an income tax. and assault on
the supreme court for is decision on the
question, shows how far the Po2uIst Wig
OF the Democratic party has drifted away
from the teachings o. the founders OF the
party. and how lIsla merit there Is IN is
boast that II - reverting TO the principles
OF Jefferson ana Jackson.
The fundamental principle OF the party
"a Il was 10 the days OF Jefferson and
Jackson was that In the Interpretation Of
the constitution ali doubts should be re-
solved in favor OF the reserved rights Iof
the states and against the granted powers
OF the general government
IN framing the constitution great care
was exercised TO keep the sources OF rev
enue for the Federal government distinct
from those for the state governments.
Thus IN section 5, article !, the congress
Is given power 20 collect taxes, duties.
imposts and excuses" but In section ,
I. Is provided that mo cap!tation or other
direct tax shall be laid unless IN proportion
to the census" In article 10 II IS likewise
provided that no state shall without the
consent Of congress, lay any imDosts or
duties on i'm port. or exports.
Now. under the Democratic theory OF
the Interpretation o. the constitution. as
held during the time OF Jefferson and
Jackson, these provisions would forbid
congress from levying any income tax.
Tor the reason that this would be Selling
or a source of revenue. which the consti
tuition contemplated should remain exc!u-
svely 10 the states. Any Democratic
statesman OF the era before the war would
un1uestiouably have looked upon the de-
elslon OF the supreme court. which the
Chicago platform now attacks, as being
decidedly IN line with tn. Democrats
theory OF Interpretation OF the eonstitu-
ton
Tns Democrats ana Popuiist parties each
now profess 20 be extremely DESTROYS FOR
rehabilitation OF he income tax. II they
are honest in their belief that the income
tax - a legitimate way 10 raise revenue,
there Is nothing In the Federal consti,u-
ton which forb.is any state from levying
al ILoorue TAX upon it, inhabitantA Tho
d,r.c; taxation levied by the state. county
and municipal governments Is always felt
BY the individual tax payer as more
grievous harden than the indirect taxes
levied BY the national government I. the
Populists and Democrats favor an income
tax. why Go they not impose such a tax IN
the many states where they have fun
control OF the legislative power and thus
relieve the poorer classes al home OF some
o. ths burdens OF taxation7 This remedy

his third dollar. 1t was no use

was put down again.

found that his new subscriber had
been there twice during his absence

the new subscriber by trying to
explain things.
Abont month later the writer
met the new subscriber in the post

he could say anything the new sub
