That bright star in the west these nights is Venus, the brightest of all the planets. It is the nearest to us of all the planets. It is the nearest to us of all the heavenly bodies except the moon. It is nearly the size of the earth, being 7,700 miles in diameter. Its density is about the same as the earths, slightly greater. There are signs of an atmosphere, but there can not be much It always presents the

self as an oculst. Returning TO America in 1871
he was chosen president of the Pulce homeopathic

THE CORPORATION TAX.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Consider for a moment the effect Of the
proposed per cent tax the surplus Of corpora
tons Here two shoe factories side by side IN
this city. both employing the capital and
both having the surplus. BY the proposed
act of Congress the shoe factory which Is incor-
pOrated is elected by Congress TO be taxed make
up the deficiencies in government expenses caused
by extravaganza while the neighbOring shoe fac
tory, which is not incorporated. is not called upon
TO pay a penny There may be hundred times
as many factories which not incorporated
there Of those Incorporated; thus the in
justice of this scheme may be seen at glance
Furthermore. the factory which is incorporated is
taxed by the state each year. in addition 10 the
tax paid by the corporation when 1t is Incorporated;
thus the shoe firm which is Incorporated is pucked
on every side while its competitor is not disturbed
in the conduct of its business The corporation,
the other hand. must throw open its books to the
inspection Of the government authorities.
While I speak particularly for the small corpora
ton having $4,000 or $780, 900 carital injustice
IN placing the per cent tax on large corporations
II there is a deficiency TO be met by our govern
ment why rot tax all Of people, rather than a
specified few? II specified few can be called
upon 10 make up this deficiency of our government.
WHY could not the movement be carried 20 such
an extreme as to demand that one individual make
up the dehciency-for instance, John Rockefeller?

CUBA'S BAD FINANCE.
Budget Nay Not Be Passed-Thc
Lottery Bill Held Up.

Havana, June 23.-The apparent improbabty Of
the acceptance of the national budget by Congress
causes tension. The House committee to which
the budget referred is yet ready TO report,
and there only eight days remaining for the
submission OF the report, its discussion by the
House and reference 10 the Senate.
Some Congress authorities advance the theory
that in default of acceptance OF the proposed
budget the budget for the previous year remains
operative. the Executive being competent 10 supply
the deficiencies by special laws and DEGREES. But
this apparently is in direct violation of article
in the constitution which declares that the budget
is valid only during the year for which it de
signed II has been suggested that Congress re-
main in session until budget is passed. but the
constitution says that II pass not later than
July1.
The question is further complicated by the fact
that the Constitution provides for the submission
of the budget to Congress IN November. This. it
is said was rendered impossible by the continu-
ance of the Government Of Intervention. which left
insufficient time for its preparation submission
and discussion by Congress.
The alternative Is throw all the responsibility
for national expenditures in the coming year on
President Gonezs administration.
The budget is not the only question Of great i'm
portance left FOR determination for the final few
DAYS Of Congress The national lottery bill on
which the government depends TO supply the de-
fciency of 5000 COO and other important measures
are deadlocked in committees.

Introduce innovation IN the history of English

with the view Of a possible surplus but the GER
