. A sociaIIstIc Proposition.

Nashville Banner.
 The Democratic Party has in the past advocated an income tax. Such a tax was embodied in the revenue meas ure passed by the first Congress of the second Cleveland administration. An income tax Is not an uncommon means of raising revenue. It is prac- ticed to some extent in a number of European countries, notably Great Britain. and is quite an old expedient as a producer of Government revenue.
 An income tax is not necessarily in itself a radical or Socialistic measure, but the kind of income and inh heritance tax proposed by President Roosevelt IS distinctly of that nature. The Pres ident does not propose the tax for rev. enue purposes. He does not desire any 1 radical tariff reductions, and he says produce a surplus. The sole end to be | attained by the sort of assessment he | proposes is sto level fortunes and to l lessen the accumulation of great wealth. l It would be a tax on enterprise. and
 the principle on which it was levied
 would be entirely Sociallstic.
 According to the latter-day radical idea. corporations or combinations ot ] capital are a menace to the popular
 welfare, yet great lndividual fortunes
 are also equally condemned. If these | two luminous ideas prevail. how car any great enterprise be undertaken | The logical tendency of such a policy l is Socialism. It means the destruction of individual wealth and also of com bined private enterprise. Nothing else would be left but to turn over every lthing to paternal government.

This is My 6Sth Birthday"
Ludwig zamenhof.

sDr. Ludwig Lazare Zamenhof, who has become widely known as the in- ventor of Esperanto, was born at Bly, Lalistock,s in Russia, December 10. 1SS9. He was educated for the medical pro-
 fession. but for some years has been
 practicing as an oculist in Warsaw.
 In his college days he became inter ested in the question of a universal
 language. owing to the racial differ
 ences which existed among the mixed
 population of his native place. Be-
 fore he put forward Esperanto. how
 ever, he had practically completed an-
 other language, but this diS not ap-
 pear very successful and it was not
 until 1SS7 that Esperanto was present.
 ed to the public. Though opinion diff
 fers as to the value of a language made
 for universal use, it is generally ac-
 knowledged that Esperanto has been
 more ingeniously constructed than Vol
 apuk and other of It's predecessors
 Many loudly praise it's merits. with
 the result that it's inventor has be-
 come a celebrity. It has been taken up enthusiastically by numbers of peo- pie in the various countries of Europe and to a lesser extent in America. Sev-
 eral international congresses have been held by the Esperantists, the one this year meeting in England with an at- tendance of several thousand persons.

As to Filling Committee Vacancies and Selecting Delegates.
 | Washington Special.
 One of the possibly very interesting phases of thb National Republican Con- vention. and which will affect the na- tiona1 political conventions. relates to States where contests may arise. grow. row ing out of the State laws. requiring delegates to be elected by primary, as
 fin the case of Wisconsin.
 yariably elected by State and district
 conyentions. The National Convention
 IS under the law. the sole judge for the qualification of It's members. But egates to the National Convention be
 called contrary to State laws. a State
 chancellor might enjoin such local con-
 court those who participate.
 This question arose as to Wisconsin. The National Republican Convention
 tried to today to straddle this with a
 resolution that delegates should be 1 elected by conventions, except in those States where the State Jaws required
 primaries, in which event delegates

 testing tS deiegatioHs if in srUa the nsnt cSa Sa-
 rional Republican Convention seems
 more than anything else to possess the
 minds of serious Republicans who are looking beyond the event of the day. The view as embodied above was given substantially by a prominent Republican lawyer. He said 1t would obtain largely ias to the National Con- ventions of both political parties. The Republican Convention would be held first and would be notable for a tur-
 moil over contested delegations and the
 same sort of thing would characterize the Democratic National Convention. This gentleman. who is an avowed Taft
 man, looking over the events of the
 day, said the Republican sun. as he
 viewed it. meant fight to the finish,
 which would end in the nomination of either William H. Taft of Ohio. or Charles E. Hughes of New York. The votes of the national committee
 men of the convention place had not significance because as would be learn ed by investigation, numerous members
 voted for Chicago who were adminis-
 tration and Taft men.

TUESDAY. DECEMBER 10, 1907.
The Portsmouth Star says;

Instead of the alarming number oi train wrecks that have occurred in the do,,blv on their guard to prevent them if possible. 1t would appear to the gen erai reader, who hears of train wrecks daily. as though the public safety were about as thoroughly neglected as Is possible.
 That this is becoming a very serious matter must be apparent to all who read the papers, and if there is rem edy or remedies the time seems to have come when 1t should be found and ap- piled. Whether the trouble Is due to faulty construction, to carelessness or to close schedules and speed mania, or to all of them, we cannot say. but cer- tainly wrecks are becoming alarmingly frequent.

RnIlrond Rate Mystery.

Memphis Commercial-A Appeal.
 The strange part of it Is that de- spite all the spectacular railroad rate legislation and railway regulation, nothing Is coming any cheaper to the consumer. Ordinarily when one can save freight he can lessen the selling other. in the very face of the fierce war of freight reduction, prices, in- stead of falling. have continued 10 climb higher. This doesn't look either somhewere along the line there IS leak needing inspection and mendinc.
 What we want to know is, who IFS the beneficiary of these rate reduc- tions? If railroads have been regu.. lated and disciplined to the tune or some millions of dollars per year. VII ,l 2 ? has received that which, without the regulation and discipline, would nave

these reductions with the railroad. One E the shipper, the. other the receiver. Consf9nor and consignee manufacture Or ana merchant if prices have not been lessened to the consumer in pro- portion to freight rate reductions. and s4laries have not advanced. then these reds5ctions have been. pocketed by eith- CT the consisnor or the consignee.
 As we understand 1t. the war on the railroads Is supposed to be for the benef1t of the consumer, and is 5ustf- fied only upon the grounds that the great body of the people are t& re- ceive whatsoever advantage there may be In the so-called victories over trans portation companies Thus far we fail to note where the consumer, represent- ing this great body of the people, has come in for single crumb. On the cohtrary. he is being held up' worse than ever.
 Something is wrong somewhere. else this terrible, war is farce-comedy, with the fighting in the name or the people, but the spells going elsewhere with a ven9eaUce.

 Washington Special.
 Despite the formal denial from the
 White House that the President had
 given to any caller a statement for publication. reiterating his determina. Ytion not to accept another nomination, members of the Republican Nahonal welt will allow his name to SC before the National Convention next year. Tn fact t is practically the an unanimoSs snnf ps 111n0o will on. f Fake ns a nominssion. He is ex. pected to make formal statement tc this effect when Secretary Taft re- turns.
 o The , ssSss. g G ssSa sssts'.s soa welt delegation to the convention does not conflict with tho fact that the President will not accept nomination; The committeemen from the States of for dslesations for RooSsvelt are those from Texas, Louisiana.

 It Is believed the proposed course of the Southern committeeman is approved by the President, who wishes to have all the delegates possible. not that he may receive the nomination, but that he maybe able to control them in the selection of his favorite. That he at present favors the nomination of Sec retary Taft there is little doubt. In-' dication of the attitude of the Presi- dent was given recently by his reap- pointment of William H. Armbrecht to the position of District Attorney for the Southern District tof Alabama two months before his term 'expired.g Arm brecht has always been an avowed Taft man and took no part in the third term holders generally.S

The President is always doing some- thing out of the ordinary. Quite re- gently he settled the question of divid- ing the Federal patronage of South Dakota between two Senators by the old fashioned plan of tossing up coin and giving out positions according to how 1t fell on the floor. Referring to this The Philadelphia Record says: Why can't Foraker and Taft settle the Ohio question between them with out bothering anybody else? Why go to the trouble and expense of a pri- mary election, or even of manual ballotY Roosevelt has pointed the way out of the difficulty. Let them flip 8 coin. or draw straws. Let them pla" crack-loo. or shake the bones. Let them cut the cards or draw slips out of a hat. It seems to be 'foregone con- clusion that 1hio must belong to either Taft or F'oraker.
