sELF-INTEREsT AND THE I'm
COME TAX.

"Mr. Cochran, Of Missouri, has
taken the first step toward modern
izing by introducing into the
House constitutional amendment
to place the legality of the income
tax beyond question.
If self-interest were even fcebly
enlightened instead of being stone
blind, the influences now power
fully against such efforts as Mr..
Cochran's amendment would be
working so strongly in their favor
that this or similar amendment
would pass Congress and the State
Legislatures without opposition.
Wealth now pays no tax to the
Federal Government. The whole
cost of the government is paid by
taxes on consumption. The in.
heritance taxes that have now
been adopted by seventeen States
and the undeniably strong feeling
over the failure of the Income Tax
law are signs Of the times which
wealth cannot afford to neglect. 1t
is the part Of wisdom to yield to a
popular demand that is obviously
just. And to yield would be to
draw the poison of the demago-
CUES, TO allay the anger and dis.
content of the masses, and to pro
mote that spirit of fairness and
confidence without which there is
grave danger of injustice.
If wealth would consent to bear
its just share Of the burden, even
the threat of confiscation would be
silenccd." IN Y. World.
Is IT possible that the United
States has been reduced to such
disgrace? "If ,cedlth oo,ad consent Il
bear its Just share of the burden! . =
Who ever heard of o poor devil
with only few hundred dollars
being asked ifhe would condescend
to pay his just portion of taxes
What are our laws for? What dc
the people elect paid servants forl
Are our laws to be trampeled upon
by the man of wealth and defied!
Are our officers and courts to &c
groveling in the dust before the
rich man and beg him to bear his
jast share of the burdens Or are
our laws made to be delt out justly
and equtably to all men by officers
who have the manhood to compe
the wealthy to bear their just por
ton of the burden? If wealth
cannot be compelled to bear it,
just portion under our American
institutions, the sooner our re
public is turned into q monarchy
the better.

HOW WATER rs LOST.

An element which few irrigators
or constructors of canals take into
consideration is the constant loss
through seepage where open earth
en- canals arc used. While all have
general knowledge of the fact that
there is more or less loss from that
source, not many know what the
proportion is to the amount of
water carried at the head of such o
canal.
Tests made in Southern Cali
FORMS, however, furnish some most
interesting data upon the subject.
In the case of q canal twenty-five
miles in length, about fifteen feet
wide and with q grade of about
two feet to the mile, it was found
that the loss from seepage alone
amounted to over SO per cent.
This, too, in formation for great
distance of an adobe character and
not favorable to the loss of great
quantities of water in this manner
With sandy soil the proportion
would undoubte dly be consider
ably greater.
To meet that loss the process. OF
cementing the canal has been ad
opted with great success. Where
water is as valuable as ii is in
Southern California, this expen
sive method pays handsomely, and
the work is constantly going on
Indeed, as the demand tor water
increases, while the supply re
mains stationary, 1t is altogether
likely that the time will come
when all the canals in the State
will be lined with cement.-San
Francisco Chronicle.
