THE ELEPHANT QUAKES AT
SIGHT OF LITTLE MOUSE
Great Excitement Among Organs of
Plutocracy Over Corporation
Tax.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-The ter
ror which may be caused to an ele-
plant by the presence of a mouse
is good example of how Wall street
has been effected by the proposed
tax on corporation dividends. The or
gans of plutocracy-which include a
majority of the papers published in
New York city-are having hysteria
in its various forms.
The New York Sun has the worst
attack. Every morning it froths at
the mouth and writhes in the middle
of the floor at the prospect of pub
licity for corporation affairs The
Sun is shrieking at Taft and asking
him whether he realizes what he is
doing. 1t wants to know if Aldrich
understands that this is the entering
wedge or socialism, anarchism, Roose-
veltism and all those other ''isms"
that Rockefeller and Morgan see in
the night straddling their beds and
CAM ping on their stomachs. To the
Sun it is the beginning of the inqui-
sition.
Dissolved in Tears.
The New York Commercial is dis
solved in tears. What worries the
Commercial is the little laundry
company capitalized at $4,000 and
earning $1,000 year net which
would have to hand over $40 to the
federal government before it could
pay a dividend to it's stockholders"
The little laundry seems to have TAX
en- the place of the widows and the
orphans" The plan to tax the little
laundress on her shoes and stockings
and fiat irons and stove and other
things all included in the Aldrich
bill. did not worry the New York
Commercial, but when it is the little
laundress capitalized and paying div
idends, 10, she becomes a heroine and
Wall street will protect her
The New York Press is having
spasms. Its screams are distinctly
heard in Washington. According to
the Press, everybody is against the
income tax. Beginning with the an
archists and socialists and ending with
Wall street, the Press declares that
there is one universal acclaim of de-
nunciatiOn. and everybody in between,
according to the PA ess. sees the in
EQUITY of this proposition.
Against Tax on Wealth.
The New York Times is putting out
columns against the proposition to tax
wealth. 1t is even ready to accept a
veto of the entire tariff bill. 1t is
willing to assume for the moment that
there won't be enough revenue and
is almos willing to pay the national
debt itself if Washington will stop
talking about taxing incomes and cor
poration dividends.
And so they go. The New York
World is skeptical. The World has
been demanding all along that the
republicans put a tax on wealth in
stead of poverty. Now that there is
