URGES SENATE
To PASS INCOME
TAX AMENDMENT
Wilson Sends Message Asking
Body to Concur With
the House.
lErom a stan Correspondent

TRENTON, April because the
hearing or the Geran primary elections
bill prevented the regular afternoon
session of the Senate, a session was
held last night.
The first business taken up was the
following message from the Governor,
which was accorded the customary
reference:
'"To the Senate trust that l may
with perfect respect call the attention
of the Senate to the resolution passed
unanimously by the House of Assembly
ratifying the proposed amendment to
the Constitution of the United States,
which confers Upon Congress the right
TO lay taxes upon incomes.
This amendment has no partisan
color whatever. 1t was suggested by a
Republican President and passed by a
congress of which both Houses were
Republican; but it received the cordial
support of Democrats in both chambers
of the Federal congress, and has been
Endorsed by the national platform of
both of the great political parties of the
country. 1t seems clearly sustained by
The public opinion OF the nation. Our
House of Assembly has agreed to 1t
without a single dissenting voice.
Great Consequence to Nation.
1T is a matter OF great consequence
to the whole future policy of the gov
eminent of the United states that this
amendment should receive the sanction
of the States. A large majority of them
have already ratified it. The State of
Maine has just reversed her former
action and accepted it. New Jersey
should forego all considerations of self
interest and confirm it. TO enhance her
credit as a progressive and patriotic
commonwealth. to further the right adj
justment of the burdens of taxation, to
enable the Federal government to liber-
allie its financial policy without loss or
embarrassment, and to consolidate the
interests of State and nation upon a
real reciprocal footing. One decision
of the Supreme Court of the United
States, based upon economic
reasoning, has made this amendment
necessary. The powers OF the Federal
government in this important matter
should be restored to their first in
tegrity.
II take the liberty, therefore, with all
respect and with the deepest earnest
ness, to urge upon the Senate concur
renee in the resolution now sent up to
it from the House. I am convinced that
the honor of the State would be greatly
enhanced thereby. Respectfully,

choice upon the senatorial and gu

of a large number of republicans in
the city and county upon these ques-
tons
1t was at first thought that the
proper way would be to send out cir
cular letters making a request for
such opinions, but without the indi-
viduals attached their signatures,
which The Sentinel believes they
would not care to do, there would
necessarily arise charges that the
strak vate had been faxed" by re-
sort to stuffing the ballot box. In
other words the ballet might be col
ored to meet the taste of the individ-
ual or publication which might de-
sire to learn the temper of the repub-
lican forces in this county.
Out of a hundred republican vo-
ters of the city and county who have
been seen through private means Sc
per cent expressed a preference for
tn denomination of President Taft,
three per cent said they would be
satisfied with LaFollette. ten per
cent refusing tn express a choice.
OF the same hundred voters, taken
at random from various places in the
county, 9S per cent expressed them
selves as favorable to Canadian rec
iprocity, 81 per cent against the
Payne-Aldrich bill and 80 per cent
