With a view of increasing the States
revenue the commissioners OF revenue in
the various cities and counties through
out the State have been furnished with
the necessary blanks by the auditor OF
public accounts providing for the enforce
ment of the State income tax. Commits
siOner of Revenue Charles II. Callahan
| this city, has also received them. They
are, it is said, supposed to be distributed
among the tax payers. and all who re-
ceive an income of more than 100 q
year are supposed TO pay the State a
tax on same. The State tax is $3.50 on
the 1900. This is said to be an old law.
but will be more rigidly enforced through
out the State than formerly. 1t is said.
Should those who are furnished blanks
refuse to make the necessary stateme nts
regarding their finances they can be cited
before the grand jury to show cause
therefor.
The law making $1,000 the minimum has
been on the statute books for about eight
years, it said. The old minimum was
500.

ARoUsINc SLEEPING DOCS.

Those who wish to see the Democratic party 6,
to pieces will wish Congressman Hull of Terne ssee
success in his fight to have $4,000 fourth class post
masters now under civil service, put back on the lis;
of political appontees.
Mr.. Hull may be entirely correct in his premise
that President Taft played politics when he filled all
the fourth class postmasterships with Republicans
and then gave them life tenure by putting them un,
der civil service But it would be the poorest kind
Of politics for the Democrats to rescnd that order
and throw $4,000 petit jobs into the pit to be tough,
over by quarter million two-by-four politicians.
More men will get mad at their party and knife
their ticket over 5000 postoffce fight than over
Cabinet position The Lord was good to the Dem
ocratc party wnen Taft put $4,000 little jobs out o,
their reach.
But it will be in keeping with the history Of
Democracy to fly in the face of Providence, dig W
all these bare bones and spend the next two year;
growing and biting over their possession instead OF
partakng of the substantial things which have been
placed before tnem
