DO YOU PAY TAXES?

It is not possible to dodge the
charge that Taxation without repre-

statement that women do not pay
taxes-wealth pays taxes. This of
course has no real bearing upon the
case Of woman suffrage, distinct from
man-suffrage; for If wealth pays
taxes, wealth alone should demand
representation. The deductions from
this are obvious and Immediately of

The principle upon which taxation
is based, is that of public improve

]. & W. sELIGMAN co. OF NEW
YORK, ISSUE STATEMENT RE-
GARDING THEIR NATION
Atty.

The following from the New York
Times will be of interest to Pensa-
colians, many of whom are well ac-
quainted with the Seligmans:
The banking house of ]. & w. Selig-
man & Co. gave out the following
statement yesterday:
"On learning that English papers
have classed them as German house
and have stated that they are opposed
to the Anglo ranco-American loan,
the firm of j. & w. Seligman & Co.
expressed great annoyance. They
stated most emphatically that they
are not and never have been either
prof. German or German-American, but
an unqualified American house of half
a century's standing. They further
stated that they have always disliked
and avoided the term German-Ameri-
can, and that in their opinion citizens
of this country can have only one ma
tionality.
GAS indicating their sympathies, j.
& w. Seligman & Co. called attention
to the part that their firm took in the
recent French loan made in America
for commercial purposes and for
equalizing exchange rates, and en-
phatically declared that they have al
ways favored and now favor the sue
cess of the Anglo Franco-American
loan.
although distinct firms, it is inter
estinp tn note that while the London
firm of Seligman Brothers and the
Paris firm of Seligman Freres & Gle,
continue in existence, the German
house of Seligman & Stettheimer was
discontinued over fifteen years ago,
also that members of the English and
French families of Seligman are serv-
ing today in the armies of those coun-
tries, and at least one member of the
family is in the Belgian army"

crease in the house rents of the poor
is probably even greater than in those
of the rich. Here there is no exemp-
ton for poverty. There is 10 exemp-
ton for women. both poverty and
women pay-sometimes in the same
person.
There is that little item-food. The
price Of meat climbs heavenward.
Here also the woman gets no rebate.
She eats or she doesn't eat meat. Eat
ing is a matter in which she cannot
be represented by her husband. What
she eats, what she wears, al bear the
imprint of her part in this indirect
taxation. She had no say at all about
direct taxation She is at the mercy
of indirect taxation. The tax checks
in October and May are usually the
affair of the house-purse. The wife
worries them out as often as the hus-
band. The family budget certainly
