The Income Tax

Washington March 30.-The income
tax as framed is expected by the demo-
cratic leaders of the House 10 successfully
run the gauntlet of both houses and to
become a part of the permanent national
revenue system The scheme embodies
these features;
Exemptions All incomes under $1,000;
incomes of elemosynary institutions, etc.
Rates: Minimum, ] per cent on $1,000;
graduated up to a maximum of per cent
on 100000 or more.
Method: Enforcement of the ''colec-
tqn at the source principle so as to o6-
viate personal assessments as much as
possible: collection through corporations
or other employers instead of directly
from the employees whenever practicable.
The rates and exemptions are still sub
iect to change though the figures stated
are expected to stand. The income tax
feature was written, in its essentials, by
Representative Hull of Tennessee. 1t is
designed to bring ninto the treasury not
far from s1oO000.000 including the pres
ent corporation tax of about S30,00O000.

Rome, March 3.-J Perpont Morgan
is in most critical condition This is
the official announcement made today by
the attending physicians. For several
days he has been unable to take any

Senate Opposes Plan

This plan has already aroused sharp
opposition in the Senate however. The
free sugar and Is per cent duty on
raw wool put into the bill by the House
committee will be the target for attack
in the Sente, not only from republicans
but from democrats who come from
states where sugar, wooden or wool
growing industries predominate. Should
a single general tariff bill be intro
duced with the approval of President
Wilson, it is believed the Senate DEM
ocratic leaders would be forced to yield
to the demand for separate votes on
the two schedules. In such event they
might be taken out of the general tar
iff bill and passed as amendments.
The extent to wlieh President Viii
son m Az desire a. re eeinn ~ duties
on agricultural products. eomprised in
the so-called market basket list will
have a marked influence upon the sup
port that may be given the new tariff
provision by progressive republicans in
both House and Senate. The tariff on
wheat barley oats and other farm
products has been cut about in half by
the House committee. If this rate of
duty is approved by President Wilson
it is believed large body of the pro-
gressive republicans of the House win
vote for the democratic bill, unless
other reductions are so extreme as to
make them change the plans now par
italy agreed to- The democratic bill
will not need the additional progress
sive or republican support in the House,
where the democratic majority is large,
but democratic leaders would welcome
the shift of one or two republican or
progressive votes in the Senate to
strengthen their narrow majority, which
may be disturbed by a bitter fight on
free sugar or upon the wool duty

Tariff Message Satisfies

President Wilson's tariff message, the
substance of which has been communi-
Gated to leaders of both Houses of
Congress, is understood to have re-
cei~cd general approval for its brevity
and its absence of comment upon de-
tails of the tariff bills. Within the 10
days that precede the opening of the
special session, it is planned to set
tie so far as possible all of the dis
puted points and to reach a general
basis of agreement that will insure
speedy action and few changes in the
tariff bills

Looters Feared

No disorders have yet occurred, but
ii is feared by the mayor that with the
city in almost total darkness looters will
begin their work. Mayor Phillips also
has ordered that all citizens remain off
the Streets otter Di9htfall uBder peaalty
of being arrested and lodged in jail
Tonight he stage OF the river had
registered 6S.6 feet, rise Of exactly
one foot since o'clock this morning
According to the weather bureau the
rise has beer at the rate of 2 foot every
three hours. The weather authorities to-
night said they expected the crest of
the flood to reach Cincinnati tomorrow
morning and that the stage then would
be between 60 and 70 feet, after which
the river would gradually begin to sub
eide
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-03-31
Conditions Unchanged

Conditions here practically remained
unchanged today with the exception
that the river has pre-empted more of
the section lying along the water front
The streets in that section are all un-
der water and relief measures are GO
ing forward with energy While many
of the residents have been driven from
their homes. others who live in taller
buildings refused to leave and food is
being supplied them with motor and
row boats.
In this city the poorer residents are
the greater sufferers, as that section in
which they make their homes has been
completely inundated and many of the
houses have been swept away by the
swift current of the river. AS the water
rose, however, most of these people had
an opportunity to bring away their per-
sonal belongings and their losses are
confined to the contents of their homes
Two Million Dollar Loss
The property loss in the Cincinnati
water front section will be very large
1t is estimated by competent authorities
that the loss to valuable stocks of mer-
chandise will reach nearly 81, 000O00 This
does not take into account the damage
to many of the older buildings where
the foundations have been undermined
by the rapid current. This will be great
in the opinion of experts who have made
an examination of the district and are
familiar with conditions.
Today the river front was the mecca
of thousands of curious sightseers who
had been attracted by the spectacle of
the rushing yellow flood of the river
inundating the city south of Third
street, to point almost as high as that
attained by the record flood of 1884
when a stage of 7l.a feet was registered
Relief measures here are more than
adequate and so far there has been no
slffring. The inundated district is be-
ing patroled by an extra police force
and also by officials of the city health
department. There has been but one
life lost directly attributable to the high
water and precautions have been taken
to prevent persons from taking unneces-
sary risks in saving their personal be-
longings The city was prepared for
the rush of water from the upper
reaches of the Ohio and its tributaries
to the east, north and south.
Plants Completely Flooded
The south bank of the Ohio, opposite
this city, is not so fortunate and there

When numerous white people came
to North Dakota, and the diminishing
game supply reduced the source OF
obtaining meat, Indians had to discard
their old civilization and learn that OF
the dominant white race. 1t was diff
cult for them to do this, and they did
not wish to do it. They considered
the white mans civilization more arti-
fetal than real and not productive Of
happiness. "Why build an eight room
house and then be a slave to take care
of it, when a good three 70 house is
better an Indian asked me. But a
small minority has to obey the Gus
toms OF the large majority, eventually.
We all have to do somewhat as our
neighbOrs do, or we are at a disad.
vantage. Life, like statecraft, is often
a choice between two evils. Young In.
dams educated in schools think they
must at last conform to the white
mans civilization. even though it is
arbitrary in the sense that it might
easily have been quite different from
what it is. We must all conform to
the system unless we are strong
enough to change the system. Ameri-
cans more than most other peoples
will not tolerate social or domestic
heretics.
