Georgia and the Income Tax.

The refusal of the Georgia senate to
agree to the income tax proposition post
pones the question in that state for a
year. Meanwhile there is to be an appeal
to the democrats friendly to the tax to
get move on.
Nobody had expected defeat. On the
contrary, it had generally been taken for
granted that Georgia would vote aye.
Her senator's and representatives In Con-
gress had done so. And as she had sup
ported Mr.. Bryan I'm all of his races, 1t
was supposed she would be glad to again
indorse one of his pet measures.
The income tax is sometimes called
popuistic. David B. Hill so described it
i'm 1894. But even with that conceded,
Georgia's action is surprising. When
popuism was a live factor in politics it
found great many supporters in Geor-
gia. For q while democracy had to fight
for its life in the cracker commonwealth:
and after the force of populism was
broken traces of it's influence were still
observable in the local democracy. Dying,
it had left marks behind.
1t is said that this anti-income tax
action is an expression of anti-Bryanism
that Georgia is in revolt against the peer
that Mr. Cleveland and his friends favored
an income tax Mr.. Cleveland did not
withhold his signature from the German
Wilson bill because of the income tax pro-
vision. He was glad to see 1t there. Had
the bill In its other features been as ac-
ceptable to him as in that he would have
signed it with pleasure. And Georgia S
vote in Congress at that time, as recently,
was cast for the tax.
This result in Georgia is certain to add
to the strenuousness of the campaign. We
need not accept the stories that millions
of dollars are to be expended to defeat
the tax; that certain states have been
picked out for corruption purposes: that
the plutocrats are rallying in force to the
call Of Doodle for campaign purposes
There is an honest difference of opinion
about raising revenue by such means in
times of peace for the support of the gov
eminent. There are republicans for and
against, and democrats for and against.
What remains of populism is of course for
the tax, and Mr.. Hearst and his Inde-
pendence League find it to their taste.
The Presidents influence will count, as
will that of Mr.. Bryan. But for all that,
and for other things. there is fight
ahead which all sections will feel. and
the result of which Is now in doubt
There may be surprises on both sides the
line.

PATRONAGE.

AT last ahe President Is sitting in the
real, game. The question is buttons, and
who shall get the buttons. Patronage Is
up. It is always troublesome to a de-
gree. Smiles will not multiply the Of
fees Neither will they reduce the num-
Der of office-seekers. Nor yet will they
console the disappointed. When a man
wants federal job he gives his whole
soul up TO longing, and when he sees the
place bestowed upon another darkness
falls upon the earth for him. But there
is no escape for the President. He must
hand out the places and take the conse-
quences.

Disappearance Of Poets.
from the Philadelphia Ledger.

Midsummer consideration of the poet
ical situation by various journals has
not ELECTED the most astonishing fact.
One critic examines a certain versifier
and tells wherein he Is delinquent. An
other reviewer shows how another bard
is woefully in the wrong atmosphere,
using wrong method and so on. APP
parently none of the critics and stu
dents Of contemporary verse has no.
ticed the really astonishing fact that
at last We have reached the era OF the
total disappearance of American poets
and poetasters. Not only have we no
poets who achieve the high poetical re-
suit, but we apparently lack poetical en-
thusasm and aspiration. and a class who
merely aim to interpret life, describe
manners and enforce great truths and
tic form under the impulse of a fecund
and aroused Imagination.
