Income Tax and American Wares.

Secretary of State Knox announced
officially and in the formal ex-
preston of the language of the law
few days ago that the sixteenth
amendment now is an integral part of
the national Constitution, and that
Congress hereafter shall have the right
to impose a tax on incomes.
But is il wise for Congress. even if
it has the power. 10 use it unless in
cases of emergency, such for instance.
as war or great national calamities !?
For normal occasions the present
source of Our national revenue from
customs duties and the internal reve-
nuc have proved themselves sufficient
for all purposes. Besides, they are i'm
posed equitably, while an income tax
burdens the honest man and gives the
dishonest a chance 70 escape their re-
sponsibilities. It compels men to dis
close what naturally they try to keep a
secret. This makes it an unpopular
tax.
The present reason for imposing it
is to permit sacrifice of certain of
our tariff duties. This again shows
the income tax to be an essential con-
dition of free trade, because tariff
can be made exceedingly low when
an income tax provides other revenue.

bic, expenditure, and increased taxa
ton? 1t will be the same as before.
Thus the faulty of competition is
made plain.
If there are agencies at work that
make for war, there are also those that
are trying hard for peace. Germany, it
must be admitted, has played a noble
part, in connection with the Balkan
conflict, in preventing European war,
and the same pacific spirit has animated
the Kaiser's government in its attitude
toward England, as has been made
manifest to surprised and unbelieving
world by Germany's acquicscence to a
naval policy which gives a vast su-
premacy to the British nation as the
ruling sea power.
Germany, as The Herald has pointed
out so often, has sentimental points of
contact with England. The Kaiser has
ever said so on all occasions, but jim
goism's latest crop in England was too
big, and, for time, too powerful. At
last Downing Street has seen the er-
ror of its policy of nagging the best
and truest friend England has, and
it is we'll that it should be so. For
it means less taxation, less burdens,
less expenditures. 1t means a con-
tented, happy populace. In short, it
means peace!

Luck In Old Papers.

From tho Springfield Republican.
The luck of Edward r. Hemingway. a
Philadelphia paper stock dealer. is phe-
nomenal even for that line OF business.
In a $50 purchase OF waste paper from
an upstate business house he found lo1
postage stamps OF curious design. He
exhibited them to A. F. Henkels. presi-
dent Of the Philadelphia Stamp Club. and
was informed that his discovery was
worth In cash about 100000. and that 1t
would go down as a memorable event IN
the annals Of philately. The most valu-
able of the stamps are those known as
the st. Louis bear ISSUE" struck IN
lS4a This variety was designed for use
in St Louis, and is distinguished by the
seal of Missouri with two bears rampant.
The and i cent specimens of this Issue
have a catalogue value Of $50 each, and
a commercial rating of perhaps 500 more.
Mr.. Hemingway has several of this de-
nomination but they pale in comparison
with his specimens OF the 2o-cent bear
ISSUE These stamps are SO rare that for
many years the authenticity of the few
that did exist was doubted. During the
last decade. however. several have been
unearthed, and their value has been es-
tablished at 2,5O0. This is the kind of a
find that would fill the life of a col
lcctor with glory. and the desire to hoard
his treasures-but Mr.. Hemingway has
no sympathy for that kind Of hobby
riding. He is quite frank to say that the
first man or company that comes along
and offers 100000 for the lot can have
the stamps and welcome to them. There
were also valuable documents of the
period in the waste which
the Philadelphia dealer bought. 1t be-

sons OF Geu. Ben Atad Want Thai

From the New York Sun.
A case has been begun before the civil
tribunal of Tunis which the sons of tn,
late Gen. Ben Aiad Tor Ayed) are suing
the defendant, the government Of the re.
gency. for a fantastic sum of money.
something like s73,oOO,OOo
The claim. which has been heard Of nj
intervals for the last half century, is
briefly as follows:
In 1856 Emperor Napoleon III was
asked to arbitrate between the Bey of
Tunis and his favorite. Gen. Mahmud Ben
Atad. The hey accused the general OF
robbing the public treasury.
Napoleon III consented to be umpire
and sentenced Gen. Ben Aiad to refund
to the Tunisian government the sum of
a half million sterling. As for the final
settlement Of accounts between the gen.
eral and the government. that was a mat
ter which the arbitrator left to the Tunis
courts to decide.
The general retired to Constantinople
without calling for a settlement of ac-
counts and nothing further was heard of
the affair until 1856. when one of his
sons sued the Tunis government before
the Seine tribunal for one and a half
million sterling.
The case was next heard of four years
ago. when the claim had risen to 90. co.,

To the Victor the Spoils.

Mr.. Wilson, among his political in
heritance, will find that he has before
him the task of filling some I,4oo
places, which are made vacant by the
last Senate's refusal to confirm ap-
pointments by President Taft. ever
since early in December These places
include practically all appointments in
the diplomatic service, the army, navy
Marine Corps and allied service.
Many important positions arc in
volved in the list which includes: Ed
gar Z. Clark, Interstate Commerce
Commissioner; Charles P. Neill. Com
missioner of Labor; the three Commits
SionerS OF the District of Columbia
the nine members of the new Com
mission on Industrial Relations
Christian S. Pearce, to be Assistant
Treasurer of the United States; w.
w. Warwick, to be Assistant Comp
troller of the Currency; Walter F.
Frcar. Governor of Hawaii; Ernest A.
Mott Smith, secretary of Hawaii, and
the executive council of Porto Rico.
The list of Federal judges who will
fail OF confirmation includes:
George A. Carpenter. Illinois. and
Arthur l.. Brown, Rhode Island, cir
cult judges.
Richard +. Sloan. Arizona; John NJ.
Cheney, Florida; Peter J. Hamilton
(Alabama), for Porto Rico: Clinton
w. Howard. Washington; Charles S.
Cutting, Illinois; Charles c. Mumford,
Rhode Island. district judges
Fcnton w. Booth. Illinois, and
Henry S. Boutell, Illinois, United
States Court OF Claims.
S. B. kingsbury, John A Matthew
and Charles F. Parsons, Circuit Court
of Hawaii
Besides. there arc Federal attorneys
in five districts. United States mar
shals i'll six, fifty or more consular ap-
pointments. collectors OF customs and
receivers and registers of land Offices,
all of whom failed of confirmation on
the part of the Senate. And, last but
not least, while Mr.. Taft had sent in
1880 post-ofice appointments, less than
a dozen of them were confirmed.
This entails not only great task,
but vast responsibility and the Presi-
dent has to thank his own Senators
for burdening him with it. or course
there is quite reverse side of the
story. Democrats are to be given the
chance 10 feed at the public crib after
the long and dreary wait of sixteen
years. Wherefore it is seen that Roscoe

TO the victor belong the spoils" still
holds good, despite the ideals of a
progressive reform government.

him. he no longer doubted. He did not
know how TO decline such a call. and
turned with all his old courage to the new
task.
The members Of the new Congress were
SO laggard in coming together that 1t
was the sth Of April. 17se. before both
Houses could count a quorum, though
the 4th of March had been appointed
the day for their convening.
Warrington Notified.
Their first business was the op0ning
and counting of the electoral votes: and
on the 7th Charles Thomson. the faithful
and sedulous gentleman who had been
clerk of every congress since the first
one in the old colonial days fifteen years
ago. got away on his long ride to Mount
Vernon to notify Washington of his cleo
ton.
Affairs waited upon the issue of his er-
rand. Washington had for long known
what was coming. and was ready and
resolute. as Of old.
There had been no formal nominations
for the Presidency. and the votes OF the
electors had lain under seal till the new
was an open secret who had been chosen
President, and Washington had made up
his mind what to do.
Bids His Mother Farewell.
Mr.. Thomson reached Mount Vernon
on the 18th. and found Washington ready
to obey his summons at once.
He waited only for a hasty ride to
Fredericksburg to bid his aged mother
farewell.
She was not tender in the parting. Her
last days had come. and she had set her
self to bear with grim resolution the fatal
disease that had long been upon her. She
had never been tender, and these latter
days had added their touch OF hardness.
But It was a tonic to her son to take
her farewell. none the less to hear her
once more bid him God-speed. and once
more command him, as she did, TO his
duty.

1t is an altogether different Senate

in political complexion, principles, ano

no doubt, represents the sentiment OF

a wise thing i'll sending in his resig-
nation as the Democratic caucus chair
man. No one objects to him on per-
sonal grounds; it is what he stands
for that is Objectionable to the Sem
ate, as it is composed now.
In itself the position OF caucus
chairman does not carry much power,
but time was when it did. 1t is SIM
ply another OF the signs of our times
that not even the ultra-conservative
Senate is satisfied to be controlled any
longer by the elect" (and antiquated)
members. This was plainly shown a
few months ago when the Democratic
Senators undertook to rcapportion
committee places.
Had the well-worn policy OF senior
ity or precedent been followed this
time Senator Martin most likely
would have succeeded himself as the
caucus chairman But old regulations
have been set aside and the retirement
OF Mr.. Martin is bur a part of gen
eral change brought about by an in

With the Gcrman-British fear
barely a thing of yesterday, Franco
and Germany are suddenly paying an
amount of attention to their armies
which cannot encourage Europe to be
more hopeful of peace. The conti-
mental atmosphere. anyway. has been
too heavily charged with electricity for
general comfort Austria's high-handed
action in Bosnia three years ago start
ed Italy upon her no less high-handed
adventure in Tripoli. Next the Bal
kans fared into war. Russia and Aus
tria have modified and strengthened
their frontier forces, and now Rou-
mania's surprising demand of recom-
pcnsation from Bulgaria for her "neu-
trality" adds to the disquieting condi-
tion. Germany, perforce, as it claims,
is adding to her army, and France has
replied in kind.
However, there is no need of placing
too great a significance upon this ac-
ton on the part of these two natural
foes. Germany, for quite number of
years, diverted a good deal of her mill
tary appropriation to her navy. Com
potent observers have declared time and
again that the efficiency of certain
branches of the army was seriously in
tcrfered with thereby. Hence her in
crease of the army is more apparent
than real, in that il is an effort to
make good certain deficiencies of the
establishment, but does not enlarge
its numerical strength. In other words,
the extra money that recently was
lavishly spent upon the navy, is to be
used again-as before the diversion
for the army.
Nor has France strengthened her
land forces lately to any appreciable
extent, wherefore the same argument ap-
plies to her. She is trying to make up
for her recent inactivity in this dircc-
tion. We do not believe that the mu-
tual strengthening OF military forces
will tend to make the relations between
the two countries any worse. Ever
since the close of the disastrous war of
1870 France has closely watched and
followed Germany's lead in this re-
spect. If one nation makes certain
move, it must expect similar action
across the border Each has to formu-
late its policy according to what it be-
lieves to be a national requirement.
But there is a lesson in this game OF
international chess. Germany, with a
large population to draw upon. adds to
her army. France, though having a
more difficult task in finding the neces-
sary men, is great deal stronger
financially, and this enables her to keep
pace with German improvements or
increases And what will be the rela-
