BACHELORS TAXED.

The Hessian Diet has passed a law
requiring bachelors to pay 25 per cent
more income tax than married men.
The Woman's Journal warmly ap-
proves Of the distinction thus made
between the taxes of men who sup
port families and of men who support
only themselves. The WOman's Jour
nal also advocates legislation which
will equalize the wages paid women
and men. The law placing an espe-
cial tax upon bachelors seems to be
intrinsically just. So far as the law
fixes the rates of wages, the obliga-
tions different classes of wage-earners
have undertaken should be considered.
To be thoroughly consistent the WOm-
ans Journal should admit the justice
of higher compensation for men who
have families to support than for eth
er men or women who have only
themselves to care for. 1t is difficult,
however, to frame a law which will
meet either individual cases or classes
of cases which employers have to deal
with. The employers first care is for
his own interest; his second, for the
interest of the State. He employs the
man or woman whose labor has the
greatest value to him, and pays wages
in proportion TO the value of the work
performed, trusting the man or woman
who is most literally paid to recognize
his or her duties to society. Laws de-
signed to protect those least able to
protect themselves often work an in
jury to the class for whose benefit they
were intended. In some cities laws re-
quiring employers to provide seats for
saleswomen have been Indirectly COM
piled with by substituting statesmen
for saleSwOmen. 1t is clearly, howev-
er, within the province of law to pre-
vent an approach to inhuman treat
ment of employees. Laws prohibiting
the employment of minors more than
given number of hours day are in
the interest of society, though in some
cases they may prevent the employ
ment of minors. The Hessian Diet
which imposed tax on bachelors in
comes came within two or three votes
of laying a double tax on women's BIZ
cycles. Doubtless the purpose in this
case was to discourage the use OF
wheels by women.
