a TAX !. j q. IS NEEpEp

: ~ E ,
One of the laws proposed by the
tax commission which was lost in
the shuttle, and which the News be-
lieves should be considered by the
next Legislature, is that imposing a
tax of ten dollars a year upon certain
professions. such as lawyers. physi-
clans and dentists. There is as much
reason in the tax upon these occupa-
-tions as there is in the tax upon real
estate and stock brokers, auctioneers
and sewing machine agents. Taxes
upon these callings are levied because
they have no merchandise. goods or
equipment subject TO taxation. Their
incomes may be as large as those of
business men whose money is invest
ed in shops or factories, yet unless
they were required to pay license
they would escape paying tribute to
the commonwealth entirely, while the
merchant or the manufacturer with
an income no greater and enjoying no
greater degree of protection, would be
paying heavily upon all he owns.
Another reason may be advanced
Tor the TAX upon lawyers, physicians
and dentists. Each of these profess
sions is peculiarly protected by the
State. Special laws are passed for
their benefit and they are given priv
ileges and favors shown to no other
class. In the case of lawyers. they
may be educated and qualified for
their profession practically at State
expense. Examining boards are
maintained for the benefit of den
lists and physicians that incompetents
and quacks may be barred and the
standard of the profession maintain
ed. All these are special benefits
which would fully compensate our
professional friends for the small sum
of $40 a year, which the tax commits
sion thought they should pay to the
State.-Wheeling News.

$4,000 more for disgrace and hui

he devoted to counting was worth 81
day to him. So long as at is better
to have loved and lost than never to
have loved at all" there will be little
disposition TO pay a luckless sutton
for his time. But the question of
awarding damages for the broken
promise is different. The fist suit
Of this kind was brought in. England
several hundred years ago. 1t was
thrown out of court on the ground
that marriage was no advantage to
man. A second action met the
same reception. Then the courts re-
yersed themselves and decided that
marriage was as much an advantage
to man as to a woman, hut juries
have never placed the same value on
the price of heart balm for men as
they have for women. There have
been recently several actions of this
kind in the United States. and the
developments in the law of love will
be awaited with interest.-New York
