Populist Finance
In England

We invite the attention of our con-
servative friends who regarded Dem.
ocrats rs anarchists because they
tried in the Wilson law to impose q
tax Of two per cent on the incomes of
persons who would never miss the
money, to the arrangements by which
England is preparing to finance the
present war.
The backbone Of the fiscal policy
formulated by Sir Michael Hicks
Beach is an Increase of the income
tax from s pence to one shilling IN
the ponnd. The former rate was 81
per cent. The new one is 5 per cent.
Hereafter q man with an income of
100000 year will pay $4,000 of it
to the British government in the way
OF income tax, in addition to his con
tributions in other forms of taxation.
A man with an income of 81 900, 900
will pay $4,000. If Mr.. W. W. Astor
draws revenue of s5,000,000 4 year
from his New York rents he will pay
the British government S250,000, in
addition to his taxes in New York.
Mr.. Astor gave up his American
citizenship because we asked him to
pay taxes OF about two per cent on q
personal assessment Of 50 600, 600, or
say, $40, ,O0C year. England makes
him pay ) per cent on an annual in
come OF S5,000,000 or more, or at
least s25O,O00 year.
England also collects over S4,500,-
600 in a single lump from the estate
of another millionaire-also an Amer
lean; by the way, and one whom we
should not consider very rich in this
country. That is enough, as Sir
Michael Hicks Beach reminded the
house, to build battleshnp. And he
was complimented by his opponents
on his admirable finance. Are both
parties in England led by rampant
Populists.-New York journal.

Lobby Cracks the Whip.
Chicago Inter-Ocean.)

What caused congress and the adj
ministrution to face about on the
Porto Rican tariff bill? Numerous
excuses for this lightning change
have been put forth, but each has
been abandoned, almost as soon as
offered.
Not one of them has had any inau-
ence with the people. Not one has
been an adequate explanation. Not
one has borne the stamp of sincerity.
Not one has told the truth, namely,
that it was the lobby.
In June last W. W. Mount de-
clared in high-tarltf magazine that
the American sugar growers looked
with disfavor on Porto Rico, Cuba
and the Philippines. Mr.. Mount as
s,lmed that the administration policy
toward these lands would be fatal to
the sugar interests of this country.
To prevent free trade in sugar with
bur island possessions, lie said ''sugar
producers all over the United States,
with vast contingent of foundry
men, railroad systems, commission
men and banks, whose capital floats
Is 1t were largely in molasses, had
prepared to make strong fight in
congress for the protection OF this in
austry."
, The pertinence of these remarks to
the act of infamy perpctrated in
Washington ON February 2S is point
ed by the fact that the head of the
lobby which went to Washington TO
fight against the peoples policy of
free trade with Porto Rico was Henry
Oxnard, the admitted champion Of the
sugar interests in the United States,
as well as the confessed antagonist of
the expansion policy brought about
by our war with Spain. Mr.. Oxnard's 8
activity in securing the IS per cent.
tariff from the ways and means COM
tmittee mas been published in the cor
respondence Of every newspaper man
who sends intelligence from Wash
ington to this city. The support
which he received from the tobacco
interests of the East is also a notori-
GUS fact. Hence, despite excuses and
pretexts put forth by the men who
support the Porto Rico monstrosity,
the public is forced to the conclusion
that the majority of the Republicans
in the house of representatives were
compelled to repudiate their own con-
victions and to violate the convictions
Of the American people under the
pressure exertcd by the sugar inter
ests, according to Mr.. Mounts plan,
and reinforced BY tile tobacco men of

- Colonel J. A. Hoyt, Of Greenville,
is under discussion as the most availa-
BILE man in sight to carry the Prohibi-
ton standard in the next campaign.
The colonel says he is not candidate
for governor or Office, and every man in
the state who knows him is prepared
to believe that fact. We are not will
ling to say that we would prefer him
over Governor McSweeney, under ex-
isting circumstances. We are doubt
ful as to whether the state has yet
reached the point where it is able to
compel absolute prohibition in all sec.
tions. But we have no hesitation in
saying this. Colonel Hoyt is a patriot.
His prohibition principles and his re-
ligious principles are of the highest
standard. He is a man of wide expe-
rience and information. There is not
the slightest stain on his integrity OF
character, and if he were elected to
the office of governor as Prohibition
ist or otherwise, we certainly believe
he could be depended upon to discharge
The duties of his Office ably, justly
and conscientiously.
