operative before that bill has passed
the various stages, necessary for 1t to
pass, in order for Il to be inscribed
upon the statute book. AS an exceed
ingly capable and clear-headed writer
has said: "The first attempt to extort
bond from an importing merchant for
the payment of duties which the law
does not require would expose the ut
ter futility OF this retroactive scheme.
No self-respecting importer would give
such a bond in the absence OF law for it,
and all importers whose goods should
be unlawfully retained in bonded ware
houses under the retroactive section
would have a right of action against
the government for recovery Of their
losses. 1t is quite enough for the peo-
pie of this country to obey the laws
that are in existence and to pay the
taxes that are due without being con-
strained to obey bill that is not pass
ed, and to give bonds for the payment
of taxes that the law does not impose.
The equity Of these remarks will COM
mend itself to the intelligent mind.
Seeing that the provision of the pro-
posed tariff bill became operative on
and after April ] last, the following
hypothetical case may, perhaps, be
worthy OF CONSIDERATION. Itl US sup
pose that John Smith withdrew from
customs. on April / last, certain dutia-
BILE goods. He would. of course, pay
duties according to the schedule Of the
tariff bill in operation prior to April !
last-the various provisions of the pro-
posed tariff bill not yet being definitely
determined and fixed upon. Now let
us suppose that John Smith, between
April 1 last and the time when the pro-
posed tariff bill shall pass, should dis
pose of the dutiable goods, withdrawn
from customs on April / last, then fail
and disappear from off the face of the
commercial earth, and his bond prove
utterly worthless-how, may l ask
would the government succeed in col
lecting the excess duties due on the
goods withdrawn from customs by John
Smith on April / last? If this absurd
and unconstitutional retroactive clause
| Is not a colossal April fool joke, then II
is, as Lord Dundreary observed, zone
of those things that no 'fellah' can un-
derstand" ERNEST ISITT.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
NAE RETRoAcTIvE cLAUsE.

To the Editor of the Evening Journal
Sir: In view of the retroactive
clause OF the proposed tariff bill hav-
ing taken effect on and after April /
last, there would seem to be a popular
supposition that this retroactive
feature has a precedent in the manner
in which measures are framed and
passed by the English Houses of Par
lament. The supposition INDUCED in
is incorrect Bills passed by the Eng
lish Houses of Parliament are not re-
troactive in effect. When a bill is read,
passed twice by the House of Com
mons, during a single session-the
third reading being a matter of form
then read by the House of Lords. and
signed by her majesty, that bill be-
comes law, and a time is fixed for It's
provisions TO become operative. But q
retroactive clause Is not introduced into
measures framed and passed by ths
English Houses of Parliament, for the
simple reason that it Is opposed to al
the ethics OF logic and common sens'
for the provisions Of a bill TO become
