FATE OF PARTISAN ExPEDIENI

The Adams Tax law is unconstitu-
tional, and there is no law in Della
ware taxing interesting-bearing in
vestments.
That is the long and the short of
the decision handed down yesterday
afternoon by the court sitting in banc,
Judge Boyce dissenting. We print else
where a lengthy report Of the pro-
ceedings Of the court in this import
ant particular, and recommend it to
the careful perusal of our readers.
The law was never popular. II was
conceived by a handful OF Demo
cratic politicians in Dover and passed
by a Democratic Legislature for parti-
san purposes. 1t was designed TO ar
ray the borrowing class against the
lending class politically, and to subject
the lenders to annoying inquisitioni
concerning their private affairs. II
other words. it was to be a vote-get
ter fer the Democratic party, which
made a great pretcnse of being in fa
vor CT the equalization Of taxation, an(
its revenue-supplying features We're o
secondary Importance.
Some money was collected under Ia
provisions. but it will have to be re
funded TO the taxpayers.
At the recent session Of the Legisla
tue four bills, designed to repeal tn
law and the several amendments there
10, were introduced, but they failed q
pass, the Legislature preferring to le
the court pass upon the constitution

and bloodshed. and the law-abiding
citizens are glad that the governor has
acted with such firmness. The strength
Of a strike lies in the ability of those
who are directing 10 to keep their fol-
lowers within the bounds of law and
decency, thereby retaining public sym
pathy, confidence and respect. When
blood begins TO flow, and the destruc-
tion of property is made the extreme
argument Of the strikers, public senti-
ment turns from them to the conserva-
tors of the peace, and without that
great moral support the strike almost
invariably ends in failure of the accom-
plishment Of the purposes for which it
was instituted.
