favored that part of the measure.
The law was comprehensive one,

decisions of the courts from the begin
ming Of the government down to the time
of it's enactment. 1t provided a fiat
rate Of , per cent upon the incomes of all
citizens and Of every other person re-
siding in the United States where such
income exceeded $4,000 year; and the
of the income in excess Of 81, 600. Foreign

as to how incomes should be estimated
United States bonds were not to be con-
sidered which provided BY the law OF

terest should be exempt from federal
taxation, but all other interest was. But
when 1t is considered that the tax was
only per cent, 1t amounted to less than
one-eighth Of per cent on the principal
value of & per cent investment. In es-
timating income the profits derived from
the sale of lands bought within two
years previous had to be reCkoned. The
profits of all sales of live stock wheat

THE INCOME TAX.
X. The Law of 1894.
BY Frederic ]. Haskin.

When the democrats undertook the
work OF revising the tariff after the Sec
ond election Of Grover Cleveland very
many OF them felt that the proper
course TO pursue was TO take off many
duties that had been bringing in rev.
enue and 10 raise an amount equiva-
lent 10 the lost revenue by the IMPOSE
ton OF an income tax. The first sug-
GestioE in favor of such 4 tax came
from President Cleveland, in his annual
message. lie said he was satisfied that
The proposed new tariff. in the near flu
ture, would produce enough revenue to
take care of the expenditures. but that
there might be deficit for the time
being lie stated that the commit
fee" had decided TO provide against
any temporary deficiencies in revenue
by adding a few internal revenue
taxes. including small tax upon IN
comes derived from certain corporate
Investments. He added that they had

1t is presumed that 1.-The committee"
to which Mr.. Cleveland referred was
the ways and means committee of the
House, although Senator David Il. Hill
declared afterward that neither the
committee nor the democrats who We're
members of 1t had agreed upon any
income tax or other internal taxes. The
probabilities are Mr.. Cleveland had
consulted with William i. Wilson. and
a few other members of the committee,

of the farmer. The law recited that in
computing incomes the necessary ex
penses actually incurred in carrying on a
business, profession or occupation should
be deducted. Thus, a lawyer was en-
titled 10 deduct the cost of maintaining
his law practice. the doctor the cost of
keeping his office, his carriages and the
like. A man who received $4,000 income
and had to pay out 5000 of 1t in interest
had no income tax to pay.
All persons having an income of more
than 81, 500 year were required to rem
der to the proper authorities, a list or
return of the items making it up. Neg
lect to make this list or return gave the
tax collector or his assistant the right
to fix the income from the best informa
ton available and to add 80 per cent to
the amount of the tax as a penalty for
the failure. This penalty also was pre-
Scribed for those rho failed truthfully

FREDl BLACKMON
DEFENDS CAUCUS
Believes Underwood Bill
Will Become Law As 1t
Passed House

Admission, June 11.-(Special)-Co
a visit to his people here while the Sen
ate is wrestling with the traiff prob
lem and the house enjoying a practi-
cal rest, believes that the Underwood
bill will be enacted into law practical
ly as it passed the House, and in speak
ing of the tariff measure he undertook
a defense of the caucus idea.
1.-THE passage of the Underwood bill
by the House and its probable passage
ythe Senate practically as a whole is
a vindication of the caucus, which some
have denouced as club with which
to secure the passage of the bill in
the Senate. The tariff bill represents
the idea of more than a few demo-
Gratis. being in fact a composite of the
party view.
Probably no one man got all he
wanted" said Mr.. Blackmon, "for in
stance, I thought that damask cotton
duty had been shaded a little too far,
but we couldn't all be satisfied on
each individual schedule or paragraph
and it is much better to settle these
little differences in caucus and present
the compromise measure to the House
supported by united votes"
Mr.. Blackmon does not believe that
there is any man in either the House
or the Senate who can be influenced by
an 'insidious lobby" He does not deny
the existence of a certain kind of
lobby in Washington, but he says this
has always existed and will ALWAYS
exist, as it is legitimate.
