And kindles into flame.

OF language all unknown before;
The accent Of one rapture found,
The whispered hope Of more:
The bending Of the boy gods bow.
What time the string and arrow

The blissfui signet to the vow

e WASHINGTON. Oct. 17.-Pensions
for teachers In the public schools, to
be derived from funds founded and
administered by the individual States

declares the Scotch system, based on
scientific insurance principles, is es-
@pecially valuable for this country.
4rrbe German method, however, has his
s highest approval. for. unlike France

Violated Civil Service Law.

Political considerations have in the
past largely controlled the selection OF
fourth-class postma sters, and under this
order democrats must be held responsible
for the wise and safe administration of
these offices.
Under the circumstances the Taft
order violated at least the fundamental
purpose of the civil service law because
il placed permanently in office without
examination or other test as to merit
or efficiency great horde of persons. Ii
left in this condition and permitted to
operate without proper examination into
its workings, the order would make hon
est civil service farce and prove a set
back to its proper administration and
future progress. My effort is to correct
the evil and save the merit of the order

Statement of MI. Burleson.

In his statement the Postmaster Gen
eral said:
Il feel that President Tafts order OF
October - last did not go far enough in
that it failed to apply a merit system to
the entire service it was aimed to cover
1t had the effect of placing within the
classified service a large number OF post
masters who have not been required to
demonstrate their fitness for such ap-
pointments.
Fundamentally a reform movement
has for its purpose the rightinS of an eX-
listing wrong. Therefore, if the applica
ton of the merit system to the postal
service was needed in order To correct an
existing evil. then the scope of the order
effecting the change should have been
broad enough to have corrected as far as
possible the system then existing as a re-
suit of the former system as we'll as t.

The ratification of the sixteenth amend
meut To the Constitution and the deter
mination of the Wilson administration
=, follow it up with an income tax law
marks one of the most important pages
in the history of American taxation. IL
probably represents the beginning OF a
new era in the application of the reve-
INCREASING policies of the federal gov
eminent. On the one hand it settles
many questions about which there has
been much dispute. while on the other
hand it opens up new fields of argu-
ment and contention which will proba,
bly, figure in the forum of American poll
tics for many Years to- come. III there
fore becomes of paramount interest
among the questions in tho public mind.
And. moreover. il gives to the people
an issue they can fcel-a tax that they
do not pay unconsciously. \ person who
buys something upon which customs
duty has been levied knows nothing OF
what the government levies upon him in
the transaction. unless he happens to be
coming through one of the ports and
gets held up for duties on what he has
bought abroad. But the salaried man
who finds, $50 deducted from his salary
good deal of certainty.
The sixteenth amendment came about
in a rather unusual way. When the Con-
gress met to
Wide Sentiment make the
for the Income Tax. n,s ,.e = y,
there had developed widespread senti-
ment in favor of an income taX.The reve-
nues of the government were not meeting
the expenditures, and nearly everybody
agreed that thetariff was already too high.
In looking about to find some other source
of revenue most eyes fen upon the III
come tax. 1t is true that there was a
Supreme Court decision which had de-
ciared the income tax an unconStitu-
tional tax if levied without apportion-
ment among the states, but that decision
was made by only one majority-five to
four-and after divided court had fall
ed to declare il unconstitutional. And 50
il was that many people lett tnat the
Supreme Court was wrong on its second
thought. This feeling was the more pro-
nounced because every previous decision
during hundred years seemed to have
been reversed by the second decision of
the court.
There was a determination in some
quarters to put the matter up to the
court again. and at one time it looked as
if the proponents of the Bailey-Cumm1ns
amendment to the Payne-Aldr1ch law,
providing for the enactment OF an income
tax law. would be able to muster enough
votes in the Senate and House to pass it.
At this juncturc President Taft came
upon the scene with a message to Con-
gress expressing the view that the SUI
preme Court had taken away from the
federal government a power X was gen
orally supposed to have had, and one
that it undoubtedly ought to have. He
added that IL might be necessary for the
salvation of the country in time of a
great crisis.
