Even Family seerstst

The inquisitOrial proceedings Of in
come-tax collectors in Austria are a
ource Of great annoyance to self-re-
specting citizens. They pry into every
family secret, however delicate. But
now they do even more than that.
They attempt to check the income OF
a man by finding out what is sent him
by rail. The inspector Of taxes at
Myslenice, in order to give the screw
another turn, has applied to the rail-
way managers for permission to send
an Official to Makow station for a GER
tain time In order to examine all par
cells sent there or thence. and find out
to whom or from whom they have
been sent. OF course the purpose Of
such a demand Is clear. Proof is re-
Quired that certain persons spend
more, and therefore have a greater in
come than they have declared. thus
ignoring the fact that a man may pos
sibly live beyond his income. At the
same time 1t must be confessed that
there is a great dificulty In getting
people to give truthful declarations.

Public attention has been centered
Of late upon the Chinese in their own
country; but the position of Chinese In
the United States now demands con-
s%ideration. The act Of 1882 suspended
the immigration OF Chinese laborers for
ten years. and the act Of 1892 continued
the exclusion for ten years more. This
part Of the law will expire by limita-
ton next year. A bill will be introduced
in the next Congress to extend Its pro-
visions for another period Of twenty
years. On the other hand. an effort will
be made to repeal the act. Thus the
whole question of the treatment OF

had made. There we're two reasons
