The Income Tax.
{ nosten co,amereisl Enlle.ln.

Boston Commercial Bulletin.
Dissatisfaction with the federal income
tax law increases rather than diminishes
as people become more familiar with its
mode OF operation. IL is true that the
amount Of the tax itself il anything but
ourdensome, and that il will be paid with
little grumbling. But the vexsticus de-
lays which 1t involves in the collection OF
interest payments, this constant necessity
" hich il creates OF fling certificates and
making returns, the obligation which 1t
imposes of disclosing ones private affairs
TO bankers and government otficiais, the
eompiexity of the rules which must be OBJ
served in the calculation of income, the
profound confusion regarding the method
of treating contingencies for which no
provision lie made In the Law itseif--all
these things are giving rise to discomfort
which promises no abatement until ths
Law is radically modified.
4; is too late in the day to argue that an
income tax is a bad thing, for the ques-
ton Of it's goodness vas definitely settled
in the affirmative upon the adoption this
year OF the sixteenth amendment to the
constitution of the United States. And
for that matter the weight of economic
opinion is probably in favor Of the income
tax as a means for raising government
revenue. But while the theory OF the tax
Is undou btedly sound, II Is becoming
clearer every day that the method OF
applying it is open to the gravest Office
tions. 1t is probably safe 10 say, indeed
that no OF her piece OF legislation since the
close OF the Civil war has added so much
to the burdens OF existence.
Little rs TO be gained by inqairing into
the reasons Tor the many defects in the
new law. Suffice it TO say on that score
that the principa reason IL that instead of
being carefully considered as an important
measure by itself, the bill was treated as q
mere supplement or appendix 10 the new
tariff bill w hose curtailment of revenue at
the custom house the income tax was de-
signed 10 make good. In other words, the
country is now paying the penalty for
hssty and III considered legislation. But
the question OF paramount Importance at
this time is, when shall Congress proceed
to undo its mistake by revising the billr
Surely the party now in control OF the
government cannot be so well satisfied
with this example OF It's hand work as 10
risk its future on Ii.

Foxes Worth "a Fortune

A shipment OF LBS cub foxes, estimated
value q 600 900, recently arrived in Van
couver on Canadian Pacific railway
steamer from Skagwsy, Alaska, says a
consular report. Included in the lot were
red, black and silver gray foxes, one
pair OF black foxes being esti-
mated as worth $4,000 when full grown.
The owner, who accompanied the ship
ment, collected them in Northern Alaska
and Yukon territory, purchasing them
from the white and indian trsppers.
They are being shipped cas-. to the fox
farms in New Brunswick, Prince Edward
Island and the Eastern states.
II is reported that since the opening OF
the season, 2le live foxes, ranging from
silver gray to cross, valued al Sa20,oco
have been shipped from Edmonton To
points in Eastern Canada and the United
States for breeding purposes Included
in this lot were ten young black foxes
which were sold TO New York firm fol-
$4,000.
Many young foxes die soon after cap
ture. Several black pups have died after
being sold for 81 500 10 $500. A western
raw fur company, which has been supply
ing the Eastern markets with young iiv'
foxes. announces that il will discontinue
Eastern shipments, having decided to es'
tablisn farm in Western Alberta, whers
| forty foxes are already domiciled.
1t is stated that decrease of % TO 30 pc
cent. has taken place in the prices paid
| for these animals. which is attributed q
| the large number which have been sup
nlied from the entire northern country o
| Alaska, Yukon territory and the North
west territories.
