THE STATUE OF LEE.

That Senator Hepburn is by no means
alone in the country as he was in the
Senate in opposing the reception Of the
statue of Gen. r. II. Lee in Staluary
Hall, has become abundantly evident
The Senator is the recipient of hundreds
of letters commencing his course; and
many letters approving it appear in the
newspapers. Among the latter, here
is one Of peculiar directness that we
find in the New York Evening Post,
from "An American Woman of the
South;'
An old English woman. over eighty
years OF age, once said to me indignant

ROOT ANSWERS HUGHES,

Senator Root of New York has made
a direct reply to the objections stated
by Governor Hughes Of that state TO the
proposed income tax amendment. Inc
Senator s reply is very able one; In III
he completely disposes of The objections
raised against tho amendment by roN'
ernor Hughes, and makes explicit an
swer TO the adverse points made by the
Governor, He argues that the Consl-
tuition already gives Congress ample
power of taxation; this power to be eX-
ercised with Il sole view to uniformity
in the application Of such taxes; and as
TO direct taxation. according to popula'
tion. The pending amendment there
fore, adds nothing 10 the powers already
admitted TO exist in Congress 1T SIMPLY
removes taxes on incomes from the RUE
of apportionmeut according to popula
ton. where the Supreme Court in It's
most recent ruling put il, Since. there
fore. the taxing power OF Congress dlh
not before extend to the taxation of the
State governments as TO the issuance OF
bonds and the like, such limit would
apply precisely the same after the adop'
tion of this amendment, as il does now.
Senator Root, following the line of ar
gument put forth by Senator Borah OF
Idaho, POINTS out that the power OF tax
ing incomes was not denied TO Congress
for hundred years after the forma-
tion of the government and il must be
hot ln a tnI nj =
or was madc by a divided court. with
FIVE Judges on the one side, and four on
the other: with the four giving, in fact.
the strongest reasons for their uphold
ing of the power in Congress to impose
this tax. in argument which seemed
to he conclusive. Besides, after this
amendment has passed, tho courts Will
have precisely the same discretion In
the way of guarding the State govern
ments from any taxation by Congress,
that might impair their functions, or i'm
pose upon them any hardships.
1t is TO be remembered in all This dis.
cussion that the States, as such, are rep
resented in the Senate of the United
States: and the people of tho several
States arc represented in the lower
branch Of Congress. It is not for one
moment TO be supposed that Congress
so made up would pass any law that
would impose a hardship upon any State
or upon the States collectively, or upon
their inhabitants.
The arguments against Governor
Hughes seem absolutely conclusive, and
there would appear TO be no reason
whatever why the New York Legisla-
ture should refuse to ratify the pending
amendment, save only on the grounds
that the large prcpondcrance of the eH-
tremely wealthy mon of the country re-
side or do business in New York. and
that they arc ihc ones who would pay
the greater portion of any income tax.
that might be levied That would be.
however. purely selfish and local rea.
son, having nothing to do with consti-
tutional rights or restrictions. The
amendment should be adopted; there
is clearly no menace to the States in its
passage as drawn.
