It is assumed further that the limitation of taxation is that which is necessary to an economical maintenance of government and the fair administration of the law.
 In system so simple, and vet so elaborate in it's necessary dsta{s, it would seem that in the foundation of a commonwealth there would be estab- lished such system of taxation, founded on a sound equable basis of business, that would be permanent not in the sense of inflexibleness. but flexible in ad- justment to the conditions of require- ment of more or less money as condi- tons might demand for the maintenance of all that is comprehended in the idea of government.

 The unusual storm raised at Montgom- cry over the matter of taxation is quite natural, and grows from an abnormal condition which it would seem is without reason or excuse. Not that it is the present purpose to coincide with either of the contestants, but to show how such demonstrations can be avoided. It is a doctrine of universal acceptance with re- spect to every government that finances are absolutely necessary to it's mainte nance This is a matter so academic that it needs only to be stated as an approach to the question of the sources of the ob- tainment of money for governmental purposes.
