When Sir Vernon Harcourt, a doz,
en- years ago, as English chancellor OF
The exchequer, proposed 5 per cent.
legacy duty On all fortunes over S..
100000. II was attacked as on exor.
bitant tax. He declared that, once
Imposed, Il would never be repealed.
Instead, that 1t would be increased,
sNoSone anticipated that the tax would
be on the scale now proposed by his
successor, Nj. Asqulth. Under The
present law, for instance. the estate
of William W. Astor, now a British
subject, usually estimated at $780,
200, 1000, would yield the English treas,
ury 81, 100000, though most Of 1t is
real estate In New York city. In this
State this estate would pay nothing
u It went to direct heirs.
In England, under the. law now pro,
posed; 1T will pay on the first $1,000.
S0OOla5tax OF 100000. On the next S.,
o0o,00olit will pay $780, 900. and on the
$4,000 900 left IT will ply SCI ,OOO,>
1000. In all, under the new English
legacy duty, Mr.. Astor's estate OF
$3.50. 900, 900. before II goes TO his di.
rect heirs, will pay the State, because
he Is living In England, sd. 10000
II Mr.. Aston had stayed in New York
he would not have paid a seventh OF
this, and in this State he would pay
nothing, unless he left requests to
collateral heirs, which Is not an Astor
habit.
Under Mr.. AsQuith's law large Ens

the heaviest legacy tnxes known. Tar

In his defense OF the Senate. before
The Wisconsin Society Of New York.
Senator spooner omitted mention Of
an iportant change In the relations
between the two houses Of Congress
which has come about since Mr.. Reel
first became speaker Of the House. It
lis that the Senate has, 10 n very con.
siderable extent, become the popular
branch OF Congress, while the House
during the last IS years has come
more and more under the influence Of
the executive and his allies In the
House organization. During The Inst
Congress the House had not the lib.
erty OF fully debating any question
that was brought before It. The ma.
iority voted on every measure as the
Speaker desired. Under the Reed sys.
ITEM, as perfected TO the highest de.
gree by Speaker. Cannon. the House
has ceased TO be nj representative
body. All through the two sessions
of the Fiftyninth Congress II simply
registered the will Of The Speaker.
Rut under a popular President M
man can be speaker OF the House
without his approval and consent. His
influence Is potent enough with mem.
beers Of the House 10 ,urn the major.
ity to my candidate whom he may la-
yor. Under existing conditions The
President, and not the speaker. Is the
real boss of the House. This fret was
clearly demonstrated when Speaker
Reed was denied reelection, and prac.
lticalty driven from Congress. because
he was not sufficiently In harmony
with President McKinlcy's policies.
The Senate, on the other hand, retains
In large measure It's independence OF
executive Influence, and is much more
representative of popular opinion on
all matters In which the President docs
not faithfully reflect popular opinion.
Ut Is In the Senate only that freedom
of debate aud absolute freedom of vot-
Ing survive. Legislation by the last
Congress fould have left much for the
courts TO correct, but for the indie.
pendence and popular character Of the
