The United States supreme court
has just decided that express compa-
nics are not liable for the revenue
taxes, but that the expenses must be
borue by the customers.
Thus, says the AntIanta Constitu-
ton, on every side, it is the poor
people ot the country who have the
tax to pay. The bill is SO framed
that its burdens fall exclusively on
those least able to bear it, while the
great moneyed institutions feel no
inconvenience from it whatever.
The decision simply gives to the
express companies the same lmmG-
nifty which already belongs to all
other large companies, which is
only just to it.
But why should these stamp
taxes be retained? The occasion as
wellas the necessity for their inrpo
sition has passed by, and they now
remain simply as y means Of build
ing up q large surplus in the treas
ury. The very fact that their bur

The old proverb that "when re.
publican statesmen fall out honest
men get their due" is likely to be
thoroughly illustrated in the case
Of Hanna and Quay
An honest Investigation Of the
bribery charges against Hanna was
prevented by the manifest wish Of
the Administration. Thereupon
Hanna mounted the roost of Sena.

NAMED, cuckling at intervals and
planning subsidy raids.

every principle Of honor among

Of combat, but he tied the hands Of
