Sporting Notes

Manager Griffith is not going to Gin
cinnati to attend the annual draft of
the national commission. As matters
now stand. IL liz not likely that Griffith
will do any drafting. He may take a
chance on a busher or two. but as. far as
going into the drafting game as extern
sively as he did last season there Is
WINGED by the reports that hts scouts
have made to him that there is nothing
worth while left in the minor leagues
that il would pay TO draft, hence he will
remain with his team.

For twenty-five years contest has
been wased throughout the country n
behalf Of the adoption Of a national In.
come tax As q permanent part Of our
fscai system, and the sentiment In
favor Of this movement finally became
10 strong that the people overturned
a decision OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States by writing into the Con.
stitution me frst amendment within
forty years.
FOR the fiscal year ending June %.
1912, the Government derived osii.ooo..
900 from tariff taxation and e2e3.ooo..
900 from internal revenue proper.
These taxes rest solely on consump-
ton. The amount each citisen con-
tributes 10 governed not by his ability
to nav tag. but by his consumption OF
the articles taxed. II requires ~ many
yards of cloth to clothe. and a. many
ounces Of food to sustain. the day
iaborer As the largest holder OF In.
vested wealth: yet each pays into the
FEDERAL Treasury like amount OF
taxes upon the food he eats. while the
former at present pays . larger rate
OF tax upon this cheap suit OF wooiien
