In the Matter of Mendicancy.

The figures above given concerning
national taxation throw light upon the
question whether the average congress-
mans average constituent is really rob-
bed, as so often alleged, to ease the
tax burdens of the mendicants residing
in the District of Columbia, and are
fair Offset to the statistical table,
which brings home to each citizen Of
"a state a specific donation of beggar's
aims to the capital ..s
1t appears that the contribution Of
such constituent to the national rev.
enue is often infinitesimal. and, in the
cases cited, far exceeded by the contri-
button of the Washingtonian himself
While the District has no representa-
tion In the national legislature which
is paid from and which disburses this
national fund. it's contribution exceeds
the combined contributions of Vermont.
Mississippi. North Dakota. Nevada
and south Dakota, which cast eighteen
votes in the Senate and twenty-five in
the House The Washingtonian pays
into the fund from which are drawn the
ators and representatives more than
thirteen times as much internal rev.
enue taxation as the South Dakotan;
toward the salary OF the Kansas con-
Kansan; for the Texan congressman,
times as much as the Texan; for the
Vermont Gnmgresf for the as muen
from South Carolina, IS times as much
as the South Carolinian; and for the
Mississippi congressman. 81 times as
much as the Mississippian.
It is not intended in presenting these
citizens contributing the most per cap
ita to the internal revenue tax or other
national taxes should on that account
have any weightier voting power in
respect to the disposition of the ma
tional revenues than those states and
those citizens whose contributions to
the national taxes are. comparatively

Washington's National Taxes.

The fact that the people OF the Dis
trict of Columbia contribute on equal
terms with the people of the states to-
ward all national taxes. and that it is
their money as much as the money OF
the people of any state which Is spent
in national development of the nation s
city and in the development of unnavi-
gable creeks into nominally navigable
rivers in the states is often overlooked.
1t is sometimes said that the people of
the states contribute about cents
apiece annually for National Capital
maintenance and development, and that
for the same purpose the Washing
tonians contribute about SIS apiece
annually. 1t is to be remembered that
the Washingtonian contributes on both
sides of the account. He contributes
the national city development q cents)
and the SIS in addition.
The expenditure of national money
for the development of the National
capital is recognized as a proper ma
tional outlay everywhere in the world.
There has been controversy over the
nronriety of many forms of national
concentrations. as. for instance, those
for internal improvements. roads, ca
nails etc, but no one has ever contend
I'd that the capital of a nation is not a
proper object of the nations fostering
care.
The washingtonian not only con-
tributes toward all national taxes. but
and its conditions he pays heavily.
In House debate in the last Con-
Rress table was submitted, receiving
serious consideration. which distrib-
uted the $6,U00,OO0 paid the year be-
fore BY the nation for capital main
tenance among the states according tc
POPULATION, and credited each state
as contributing approximately that
amount toward the expenses of the
District. OF course no such contribu-
ton is actually made. The different
congressional constituencies from the
different states contributed to the ma
tfonal taxes in widely varying amounts
Many constituencies do not contribute
as, much to the national taxes as the
District itself does. and many of them
contribute only small fraction OF that

amount. II the graduated income tax
on individuals displaces the other ma
tiona1 taxes and 1t comes to pass that
the only national taxpayers are less
than half million income-boas
citizens out of 95,OOO6OO or 100000. .0GO
of Americans, it will be still more DIM
cult to trace a specific contribution IN
national taxes for the benent OF tne
National Capital "mendicant" to the
congressman alleged indignant ana
protesting constituent
The only national taxes that faii
directly and unmistakahiy aHd IN as-
certainable amounts upon AmeriSans
are the internal revenue taxes, inciud-
vidual income taxes. Washington ex-
ceeds In total contribution in 1914 to
these national taxes Alabama, Arizona.
Arkansas. Colorado. Delaware, Geor-
gia. Idaho. Kansas. Maine. M,ssissipp. r
Mexico, North Dakota. Oklahoma, ore
gon, South Carolina, South Dakota,
Utah, Vermont and Wyoming. twenty
two states. and Alaska and Hawai-.
two territories: ,.l.sen rwenty-s STATES
The Washingtonian's per capita contri-
button to these national taxes exceeds
the per capita Of all the. above list OF
twenty-five states and two territories. and
exceeds in addition the per capita contfi-
button of Connecticut, Florida, Iowa.
Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan. Min
nesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island. Tennes-
see, Texas, Washington and West Vir-
einia. Thus thirty-six states and two
territories contribute a smaller per capita
than Washington, and only twelve states
show a larger per capita contribution.
One Washingtonian pays more In this
kind of national taxes than one Mississip-
plan, one Arkansan, one North Dakotan,
one Oklahomite. one South Carolinian.
one Alabaman. one Idahoite. one Georg-
ian, one New Mexican. one South Dako-
tan, one Kansan, one Vermonter and one
Texan combined, thirteen state-represent-
ing Americans contributing altogether
less than the per capita contributed by
the Washingtonian alone.
The Washingtop!an contributes to these
national taxes 81 times as much as the
Mississippian, % times as much as the
North Dakotan, about Is times as much
as the South Carolinian and Alabaman,
about IA times as much as the Georgian
and South Dakotan. about IL times as
much as the Kansan, over Sh times as
much as the Vermonter and over IN
times as much as the Texan
He contributes somewhat more than
the citizen of Louisiana, Michigan, Della
ware and Massachusetts,. and somewhat
less than the citizen Of Virginia, Missouri.
