WEARY OF CRITICISM.
Members of Greenville's Police Com
mission Hand in designations.

Greenville, Nov. 11.-A a meeting
OF city council tonight three mem
bers of the police commission, DR.. w.
C. Black, chairman, T. o. Lawton,
Jr., and T. F. Jamison, handed in
their designations and asked that
they be accepted Immediately.
1t is believed that this action re-
suited from considerable criticism
made upon the police commission
lately and from some friction which
has been manifested between this
body and the city council in the past
few weeks in regard to alleged negli-
gence to prosecute criminals in the
city.
A closed conference between the
two bodies was held several days ago,
at which appears to have been mani
fest little friendly feeling between the
two, and a meeting of the Law and
Order league of this city was held
yesterday, at which it is believed
some criticism of the police commits
sioners was made by local ministers.
In handing in his resignation, DR..
Black stated that he was tired of the
criticism which had been heaped upon
the commission from both the lawless
and the supposed upholders of the
law.
The designations were accepted
and a meeting will be held shortly to
supply the vacancies.

rs SAVE UNCLE SAM 600, 900.

Washington, Jan. 36-By an order
issued today, Postmaster General
Hitchcock expects to effect saving
Of approximately 100000 to the gov
eminent a year The order requires
postmasters to account for the ex-
cess revenue derived from the sale
Of stamped envelopes and newspaper
wrappers ,singly or il! lots All
Heretofore, stamped envelopes and
newspaper wrappers have been
charged to postmasters at specific
sum per thousand. In sales of lots
however, few cents were gained
over the fixed charges, and the profit
or excess was retained by the post
masters with the knowledge and ap-
prevail of the department and was. ap.
piled to the correction of errors in
the making of change and to like pur-
poses.
Under the new order, postmasters
will have to charge themselves with
the difference between the invoice
value of the stamped envelopes and
newspaper wrappers and the amount
received from their sales.

Il hope therefore the governors

be brave enough to do their duty in
this matter. 1t is time the people
in this broad land bestir themselves
upon this vital question before it is
too late to do so. 1t would be moth

Senator BOrah outlined his con-
clusions as follows:
J. That the proposed amend
ment adds nothing to the taxing
power of the national government.
This power was complete, unfetter-
ed, plenary, before 1t can be no
more than that should the proposed
amendment be adopted.
.. The proposed amendment does
not deal or propose to deal with the
question of power which is already
complete but simply with the manner
and method Of its exercise and use of
that power.
g. No one has ever questioned the
power of the national government to
Jay an income tax for, as was said by
Justice White, the question has al
ways been whether an admittedly
unlimited power Of tax has been used
according to the instruction as to

incomes without apportionment' for
who could then say that you would
not have the right to lay taxes upon
all incomes. The present taxing power
would not be a particle stronger If il
said to lay and collect taxes upon al
property from whatever source.

POWER TO SAY
INCOME TAX
SENATOR .BORAH SAYS THAT
CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENT UNNECESSARY
That ut Adds Nothing to the Tax
ing Power of the National Govern
ment'-'It is Time the People Be-
stir Themselves"

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-Sena-
tor William e. Borah of Idaho took
occasion in the senate today to at
tack the position of those who OPP
pose acceptance by the several states
of the proposed amendment to the
constitution of the United States
which would permit the levying of a
tax on incomes without apportion-
ment between the states.
incidentally the Senator paid his
respects to Governor Hughes of New
York, including him by inference
among those who profess to be in fav-
or of an income tax but oppose prac-
teal measures which would permit
its enforcement His allusiOn was Of
course to Governor Hughes annual
message to the New York state legis-
lature urging defeat of the proposed
amendment on the ground that its
language might be so construed as to
authorize congress to tax incomes de-
rived from state and municipai bonds.
Senator Borah pictured the mind
of the public as in a state OF sus-
picion and discomfort toward the gov
eminent and declared that the peo-
ple could not much longer be with
held from radical action if taxation
were continued in protection OF
wealth and in exemption of incomes
which sustain luxury and breed idle
ness and idiocy.
The Senator said in substance:
The history of the income taa
since 1894 has not been one which
any citizen can recite with pride. Fol
hundred years a rule Of construc
ton as established by the men VINO
helped to write the constitution hat
received the approval of an undivid
ed court time and time again. Dur
ing this period there sat upon tho
bench of the supreme court some o
the greatest lawyers of that or an
other period Of this or any othe
country. During this period tn

ton received an Interpretation an

ions to which two other judge

ishing doctrine was announced that
makers of the republic had hedged
wealth about so that the taxing
powers of the government could not
reach it even in time of war; that
the founders of a government based
upon equality and justice had made
it impossible to divide the burdens
of government between consumption
and a large class of gathered wealth
During the last session of this body
we were called upon to ratify and
declare by express act our assent to
that Interpretation. Under the rule
of the majority we did so. He sub
mitted this supposed hideous defect
in the fundamental law
"Now the scheme and plan is to
defeat the amendment. Having as a
/ law-making body solemnly accepted
this construction thereby making it
impracticable again to appeal to the
court, if this amendment can be de-
feated this the government of the
people, for the people and by the
people. will stand alone among all
the civilized nations of the earth
shorn of the power to tax that form
of wealth best able to bear the bur
dens of government.
THAT is the scheme and plan. and
srch men as the great governor of
New York is giving them great aid
and comfort. Men say with great
fervor of patriotism, ! am in favor
of this power given to the govern
ment to be used at least in time of
war, and straightway proceed to help
defeat the amendment. If thOs' Vho
are the real enemies of this measure,
would come into the open its fri nds
could deal with them far more sue
cessfully.
'Mr. President. no one ever saw
this country in just the condition II
is today. Never since this govern
ment was launched has there been
such a restless spirit among the great
mass of the people, such ugly cues
