REALLY A TAX ON INDUSTRY
In No Other Way Can Underwood's
Absurd Excise Tax" Be Prop
erly Designated.

Chairman Underwood defines his ABB
surd special income tax bill ("excise
tax" he sophistically calls IT. an "ef-
What nonsense! Everybody who
has even glanced through the bill
knows 1t is nothing Of the sort. 1t is
tax on industry and earning capac-
ity. 1t Is a tax on the effort to earn
a living.
1t is in an entirely different cate
CORY from the corporation tax. which
is made false pretext for 1t and a
flimsy plea for its constitutionality.
For the excise tax" on the net earn
ings of corporations is a tax on the
conferred privilege to do business as
corporations. But can any rational be-
ing seriously claim that the natural
right of the individual to try to earn
living is privilege" and therefore
taxable on the excise" principle.
This Underwood bill applies to
everything about which an individual
can be employed. and all activities
which occupy the time, attention and
labor of persons for the purpose OF
livelihood or profit" An income tax
pure and simple-and discriminatory
one at that.
1t Is not tax on wealth or on idle
wealth. 1t is a tax on industry-on
the privilege" to work for a living.
1t is tax on toll whenever that toll
happens to be OF the grade that is
mixed with brains and can command
better remuneration than mere mus
cular labor.
And not the least obnoxious thing
about 1t Is that 1t is a desperate shift
to supply a prospective 100000, 900
revenue deficit caused by a bill to let
the raw material of the sugar trust
in free. and thereby enable a rascally
monopoly to throttle the competitive
beet sugar industry of this country.

President Taft and the Tariff.

The president makes no secret of
his disposition to maintain the policy
of protection. But he believes that
there are points at which the tariff
could be lowered without sacrificing
American manufacturing interests and
to the great benefit of consumers, and
he favors this course. He reiterates
his conviction that the only fair and
safe way to reconstruct tariff schced-
ules is in the light of full inform alton.
TO procure this he believes in the
mintenance of the tariff board, pol
icy in the furtherance of which he has
received no assistance from the Dem
ocrats.
The plan to which the president is
committed is fair and practical. II
has the support of the business inter
ests of the country. In the interest
of American industrial prosperity it
deserves to be upheld.

RASH ALL OVER BABY's BODY
ltched So He Could Not Sleep

"On July 81. 1909. We left Boston for
a trip to England and Ireland. taking
baby with us. After being in Ireland
a few days nasty rash came out all
over his body. We took him to a doc
tor who gave us medicine for him.
The trouble started in the form OF a
rash and was all over baby's body,
head and face. at different times. 1t
irritated, and he would scratch it with
all his might. The consequence was
it developed into sores, and we were
afraid it would leave nasty scars on
his face.
When We reached England We took
baby to another doctor, who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine
The rash got no better. and 1t used to
itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He was COM
pletely covered with 1t at different
times. 1t was at this time that my
mother advised US to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. After using Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for
about nine months the places disap-
peared. There are not any scars. or
other kind Of Disagreement, and baby
is completely cured by the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. We have no fur
ther trouble with baby's skin. Moth
ing stopped the itching, and allowed
baby to sleep but Cuticura Soap and

Attacktnu the Commerce Court.

The expected is happening; bills to
ing offered in congress. and heated
speeches are being made against that
tribunal
1t is charged with usurpation pre-
sumption and arrogance. Senator
Poindexter says that it has already
destroyed the effectiveness of the
commerce commission" and put rail
road control back twenty years" Sew
eral cases are named in which the
court has 'recklessly" enjoined orders
of the commission.
Granting, for the sake of the argu-
ment. that the new court has usurped
power, will not the Supreme court
quietly take away the power and as
sign limits to the activities of the er-
ring tribunal? Why must it be abol-
ished at once?" Why not let it find
itself-with the aid of the Suprem e
court?
The idea in creating a special court
of commerce was that such tribunal
would acquire a grasp of the whole
subject and more expeditiously dis
pose Of appeals. This idea was sound
and remains so today. To abolish the
court of commerce is not to gain time
but, on the whole. to lose it, to court
more delay and uncertainty than the
present arrangement involves.

NAVAL NEEDS SUPREME
COUNTRY CANNOT AFFORD BE
PENURiOUS.
Nl0gardly Policy Pursued by the DEM
ocrats Emphasizes Their Unfit
ness to Be Trusted With
Supreme Powers.

for the second time this session the
aouse Democrats will caucus on the
subject of the navy. At the caucus
held some time ago a proposition for
two new battleships was rejected
Economy was the cry. and economy
carried the day. 1t was voted that
Uncle Sam could not stand the ex-
pense.
The decision proved unpopular. Sur
prise. indeed. was expressed that a
party aspiring to full control of the
country affairs should on the eve of
presidential campaign take such a
position, not to mention the higher
consideration of providing properly
for most important arm OF the ma
uonal defense. Leading Democratic
| newspapers were prompt in condemn
ing a policy which they described as
unpatriotic. They declared that 1t
was neither good politics nor good
economy
They We're right. The decision
should be reversed. At least two new
battleships should be ordered. The
e1pense, comparatively. is nothing.
When the governments obligations
are considered. much larger sum
laid out that way would be Justified
would be economy.
Great Importance attaches to the
navy, and great national pride at
taches to it. By all means it should
be KEEP fit and strong. We must guide
by what the other powers are doing
4 In ha nh, :
they are doing. We must keep up
with the procession. We cannot halt
! 1t. and cannot afford to bring up the
/ rear. Our place. in our own behalf, is
well to the front.
AS TO the money, that can be found
without difficulty. II no tariff legisla.
ton is enacted at this session-and
none appears likely-the Payne law
will continue In operation; and how
ever detective that may be in the mat
ter OF rate adjustments, 1t is good
revenue producer. No fault can be
found with it on that score. The gov
ernment has been, and is being, well
supported by It,
II any change in the taxing scheme
is made at this session, 1t will prob
ably be by the adoption of the SO
called excise tax levy. In the house
that proved popular on both sides OF
the chamber. Should the senate pass
1t and the president sign it. the
measure will increase the revenue by
a considerable sum, even II it does
not fulfill the expectations OF its au
thors
Sothat whether anything or nothing
is done now about taxation, there vii
be money enough for the navy's needs
and it should be appropriated NJ
branch Of the public service should be
starved; and certainly not that brancf
which brings US into touch with out
side powers whose outlays for like
equipment are of a most liberal char
aCter.
