dens and be advised of it's amount in
his tax receipt. So far however, has
the retrograde movement gone that,
in the income tax case, we have the
chief justice suggesting that 1t was
one Of the unwritten compromises Of
the constitution that direct taxation
should not be resorted to unless in
great emergencies. So we have the
United States deriving practically all
their revenue from taxation laid indi-
rectly upon consumers and paid by
them as part Of the cost of the thing
taxed. We have this method defended
on the ground that it is so easy Of
collection, precisely the reason that
commended it to Louis XV.'s finance
minister.
1t was inevitable that this method
should be extended to the states and
municipalities. And now we have the
controller Of the state Of New York,
IN report in which he discusses the
question Of taxation, recommending
that the state depend entirely upon in
direct taxation for it's revenue. Taxes
on corporations, on liquors and saloons,
taxes on gross earnings should take the
place Of all direct levies, leaving the
latter to the minor divisions of the
state. But how long would 1t be before
the minor divisions would be adopting
the same methods? Already in some
IND
ing forms large part of the municipal
revenue. New York shares the prod
uct Of the Raines law with the coun-
ties, giving them two-thirds Of 1t. How
long would it be before cities would be
levying octroi on everything brought
within their limits for sale, so far as
the restrictions Of interstate commerce
would permit? The vicious system has
filtered downward from the nation to
the municipality in almost every Euro
pean government: what is to prevent
its seepage here?
The vice of method of getting reve-
nue. which the consumer unconscious
ly pays is the responsibility of the
check on extravaganza and the incen-
tive to corruption. We have seen it
in congress; we see it in our state, and
it shows in cities where liquor licenses
form part of the revenue. Were hui
man nature better than it Is; were vot-
ers more careful in selecting admin
istrators; were public offices always
held to be a public trust and never re-
garded as a private snap; were there
more conscience and less commercial
ism; were craftsmanship nothing

and councils. But one has but to look
about him with seeing eyes to learn
that these prerequisites do not exist,
and, with the increase of revenues de-
rived by indirection, comes increase of
extravagant spending, too often faint
ed with something worse and more
dangerous.

OF all the unique gold hunting par
ties that will go into the Alaskan treas
ure box this spring, probably none will
attract more attention than the party
Of tWenty-one rich, young Englishmen
who are said to be on their way from
Liverpool, England. The young gold
seekers will be conveyed to the land
Of gold by one Of the best steam yachts
Of Great Britain; they will be sur
rounded with every luxury that money
can buy, and visions Of the vast wealth
awaiting them will be their dreams.
They will not go for the wealth, but for
the excitement Of roughfng it in
strange country.
Several months ago KIondike fever
struck England. and the contagion
reached not only the common people,
but also the wealthy men Of that IA
nous isle. Lionel Hart, the son Of a
wealthy African merchant who was
the first to get the fever, has been
organizing a party Of his young friends
to visit. prospect and invest in the Yu-
kon. Among those who will accom-
pany him are said to be Neil Gossage,
a son Of the millionaire soap manu-
facturer; Fred and Arthur TAFT, of the
TAFT Sugar Refining company; J. Lever,
son of the Sunlight" soap manufac-
turer, and Jack Jones, of the Jones
Steamship and Trading company.
The steel steam yacht Irene, owned
by Col. Gamble, commodore of the Mer
sey Yacht club, was chartered to con-
vey the party to st. MichaeIs. The
Irene was built by the designer Of the
Valloyrie, and will be in charge of a re-
tired captain of the Allen steamship
line. The party sailed from Liverpool
Jan. 10. They will touch some points
of interest on the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, and expect to reach Victoria
about March 1. They will proceed
from there to st. Michaels, after get
ting men to work for them in the Yu-
kon country. If the climatic conditions
do not suit. or if the pay dirt does not
wash up we'll, they will return to their
homes, counting the trip as one Of

.safelv through Another week y

IL is the fine old hymn that the Ad-
ministration is singing. 1t is whole
week since Spanish devilry destroyed
one of the finest warships of the Amer
ican Navy. Between that time and this
there has been unheard-of and wicked
delay
From what the public has been al
lowed to learn. which, as far as Off
cial sources of information are con-
cerned. is not a tithe of the truth as
known TO the President, the State and
the Navy Departments. ii is eninently
presumable that our gallant officers at
Havana have been handicapped GER
tainly. and everybody is afraid. pre-
meditatedly. Mr. Mckinley appears
to be afraid to let the State Depart
ment do anything, because the State
Department might allow action by the
Navy Department; and if the Navy
Department should do anything, il
might offend Spain. For two years the
American Eagle has been allowed to
live only on condition taRJ he should
not act. flap or wink in any manner
disagreeable to the Spanish Buzzard.
Meanwhile the wreck of the Maine is
sinking deeper and deeper in the dark
mud of Havana harbor. That is a fact
of complete satisfaction to the Span
ish-Cuban bondholders and the Anglo
American Sugar Syndicates. 1t may
serve forever to conceal the full evil
dence of the horrible crime of Spain.
In the view of these interests, it in
wolves at least the bare hope that Mr..
Mckinley may be able to hitch him
self upside down to the accident
theory, like bat in a cave.
All things Administrational work for
delay. Even the absence of the Presf-
dent from Washington yesterday help

had contributed millions to the elec-
tion of Mr.. Mckinley. Finally, we
sent an American warship to the har-
Dor of Havana. The Spanish govern
ment officials cheerfully tied it TO a
buoy over submarine mine. which
they had prepared FOR the purpose, and
on convenient occasion they blew it
up. This also we have endured. in
the face OF worlds amazement and
contempt,
Yet under all these unt6ward circum-
stances. the President is calm and
serene. In order to show how calm and
serene he is, and TO do his little serv-
ice to the Wall street stock market,
he is placid and complacent enough to
abandon the capital of the country and
so over TO Philadelphia in order to de-
liver himself of the platitudes of Nc
Kinley peace and prosperity to the boys

THE CUBAN CORRESPONDENTS.
1t Will Set Forth a FrightfuI C0ndf-
tion of Affairs in the Island.

The reports and letters of consuls in
Cuba are being edited and prepared with
much care at the Department of State:
Il is evident that the publication of them
is to play an important part in the pro-
gress toward the settlement. mass of
correspondence has collected since the
last batch was sent TO Congress.
The House resolution calls for reports
which will show what has been done from
the time Blanco supplanted Weyler. The
Senate call includes the reports going
back TO March l. Assistant Secretary
Day now has the work in hand of pre-
pairing the matter to meet both resolu-
tions. In the preparation, two things are
kept in view. Portions of the reports
irrelevant and immaterial to the purpose
of Congress are to be eNpunged. IL the
Department of State was to send TO
Congress all that has come from the
Cuban correspondents under this Ad-
ministration several volumes would be re-
auirsd to print it. The second considera-
tion is the protection of the copsuls and
their informauts.
The reports expose the villainies of
Spanish rule. and give authorities Tor
many of the instances recited- They sur
pass in condemnation based on facts
anything which the newspaper CORES
pondents have told. They set forth the
operation of the determination policy of
Weyler in multiplicity of detail. support
ing descriptions with the awful figures
given by Spanish officials. Sickening and
shameful beyond foreshadowing these
revelations will be.
The revision now going on will not tone
down or suppress the facts, but to. pro-
tect those who have sent the information
it will be necessary to omit names and
places and perhaps some incidents which
are too horrible to be printed In the
present state of feeling about Cuba these
consular eports can not but have tre-
mendous effect upon public sentiment
They will be read not alone in this coun-
try. but will draw the attention of the
civilized world to the Cuban question.
The consuls who make the reports are
without exception the men VINO were ap-
pointed under Democratic Administra-
ton. Most of them have been at their
posts since the war began, in February,
1895. They are the identical officials whose
former reports were quoted in the Span
ish Cortes, and who were openly indorsed
by Spanish statesmen as reliable and un-
biased observers of events in Cuba.

Ii strikes us as supeTseryiceable that
Mr.. Mckinley should consider it neces-
sary to go over to the Quaker City at a
time like the present, in order TO in
struct the peaceful, studious boys Of

The Situation

The statement from Madrid that the
Spanish authorities have investigated
the causes of the destruction of the
Maine, and that. therefore, Senor Sa-
gasta is able to announce that it was
due 10 accident, caps the climax Of
the ;mpudence which has marked the
conduct Of the Spanish government to-
ward America since the beginning of
the Cuban revolution.
Americans must not forget the cir
cumstances and conditions antecedent
to this latest affront. After the Maine
was destroyed by Spanish govern
mental treachery. Spain demanded the
privilege OF an initial inspec:i On of the
wreck: or. al the least, of a bi-national
or neutral inspection. The demand was
refused. Now the government of Senior
Sagasta declares that its agents have
made the examination, notwithstanding
American inhibition, and that the re-
suits show conclusively that the caiam-
ity was a consequence of internal ex-
plosion.
There can be no question that this ut
terance, by the head of the Spanish
ministry. is a deliberate and menda-
cious attempt 10 forestaH and deny
any conclusions to which the American
Court of Inquiry may come, as a re-
suit of its investigation at Havana. A
government With brains and the COM
Elementary physical quality would
seize upon such an affrcnt as a -'casus
belli."
Unless this matter is looked upon
frcm the point of view of sodden SYM
pathy for M Mckinley. it cannot fail
to fill the American soul with rage.
For years these cowardly. lying. blood
thirsty Spaniards have been outraging
and butchering untold thousands of
people at our very door. BY way of
variety. they took to imprisoning
Americans "on suspicion" and keep
ing them without trial in the foul star
walton pens of Spanish inhumanity
That we permitted without protest.
Then they began torturing and mur-
dering Americans in and outside of
those prisons. We permitted that also.
To dc otherwise would have been TO
show an unfriendly feeling toward
Spain. and would have depressed the
interests OF persons and syndicates who
