81 Louis Globe-Democrat
Opponents to Mr., Taft's proposition
to tax the net income of corporations
are arising on every side. Nobody need
be surprised at this development. There
are many reasons why the impost should
be unpopular 1t would invade a field Of
taxation which the states have pre-
empted, and thus would impose double
burden on the corporations, The bond
holders. like Carnegie whose wealth is
almost entirely in bonds and not stocks,
would be exempt from its operations.
Immense amounts OF the stocks of all
the great corporations are held by per-
sons of moderate means. More than 3
600, 600 persons own shares in the rail
ways and in the great industrial enter
prises. A tax on the net income Of the
corporations would diminish the divi-
dends which their stockholders would
receive, and would cut down the income
which their investors would get
And these are only few Of the OBJ
jectons which can be urged against the
presidents proposition. When the FL
nance Committee, in its reshaping of
the Payne bin. cut Off the inheritance
tax, which was a feature of that meas
ure, it did so partly on the ground that
the tax would not beneeded and partly
because it introduced an issue which, I'M
the committee opinion, should not be
joined with any proposition to revise the
customs schedules. Some of the mem
bers Of the committee opposed the tax
because, by duplicating state taxes, it
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1909-07-01

would place an unjust burden on the
persons who would be affected by It,
The latter objection is far stronger IN
the case of the proposition to tax net
revenues of corporations. The number
of persons who would be hit by the cor
poration tax would be many times
greater than those who would be affect
ed by federal inheritance law. The
House put this inheritance tax rider on
the Payne bill in Difference to the views
of the president, who had favored that
species of taxation, as did his pfedeces-
sor, Mr.. Roosevelt.

in the discharge of his official duty, or
to divulge or make known in any man
ner, not provided by law, any docu-
ment received, evidence taken, or re-
ports made under this section, except |
upon the special direction of the Presi- |
dent" A fine of one thousand dollars
or Imprisonment for one year, or both,
is the penalty for the violation of this
section. There will be no information
gathered under this law that will be of
any value to the public, except the
President should direct that it be made
public. 1t is all made dependent upon
the will of the President. A publicity
feature that is dependent upon the will
of any one man is of little or no value.
Those who have studied the question
carefully say that in the levying and
collection of taxes there should be nc
part of the machinery sealed. Other
tax payers should have the opportunity
to know all the facts so as to determine
whether or not their valuation and as
sessment is being made upon the cor
rect basis.
The great gap that has arisen be-
tween the republican senators of the
middle west and those allied with the
senate republican organization is giving
the politicians much food for wonder
ment and speculation. To some, too,
it is a source of worry and concern. In
the house there was breach that was
very similar. Moreover, there has been
a lack of cohesion among democrats
both in the senate and house.
If the differences that have arisen
related merely to the tariff, there
would be little cause to consider them,
but they extend to other things. In
the house, large number of the re-
publican members are bucking against
the rules and the whole Cannon organ
ization, They want an overhauling Of
things and are bent on fighting till they
get it, not merely in fighting in the
house but on carrying the controversy
to the country.
1t has become clear to nearly every
one that the tariff issue is no longer
one that can be made to constitute the
dividing line between the parties. Cor
poration control, railroad control, and
n the general attitude toward capital
and great capitalistic interests to be
taken by the government, is not an is
sue between the two parties as now
{ constituted, but an issue that divides
both of them.

Waupaca Post: Senator Aldrich stated
on the floor of the United States senate
that "'the appropriations made last year
might have been reduced at least $50, :
100000 without imparing the efficiency

sweeping confession of waste than was
charged against the Republican party
by the last Democratic platform. No
