Earned and Unearned Incomes

There are many phases Of the in

one. Take. for example. the matter Of
earned and unearned incomes.
Each of us may pick from the list
Of our acQuaintances two types Of men
who will serve to point the moral. One
OF these types is a construction work
er. a husband and a father. The other
is a loafer, libertine and a spend
thrift. Each of the two has an in
come Of, say, $4,000. The one earns
his through his service to his fellow
men in the exercise Of 4 useful pro-
fession. and spends that portion which
Is not saved as a nestegg against the
future in supporting a family and
his sons and daughters for
future usefulness. The other gets his
as the result of the industry and saw
ing Of his father. never did a stroke
OF useful labor in the course Of a lurid
career. and spends what he gets in
the selfish qualification Of some half
dozen vices. The income tax Of each
Of these men is substantially the
same
1t is an obvious fact that Uncle Sam
is not, in an instance Of the kind, in
a position to pass upon the individual
Of each Of his nephews. The
laws Of the land must be broad and
general. Yet it seems that some sys-
TEN Of income taxation might be de-
vised whereby the l1ard-won earnings
of the young men Of the nation. seek.
ing to accumulate a nest-egg for the
future. might be less drastically as
sessed than the unearned dollars ac-
cruing, as the result Of fifteen, minutes
spent in coupon-clipping. to the fel

by. And it seems certain that, could
such a system be devised. a stimulus

death came in the spring of 1S47 when
he was seventy-two years old. and at
that time there was no man better
known than he in the wide region over
which he Travelled, which he did nearly
always on foot All the old families
in Indiana and Ohio hold this old man
in loving remembrance. and large
proportion of the newcomers in those
parts have learned to respect his mem
ory. He distributed seed to those
who. he believed. would know how to
take care Of the seedlings and the
trees. He took care of seedlings him

wilds. and later actually set out or

pleseed did not talk much about his
past. 1t was not that he had anything
to conceal, but to him the past had

but the past.
It was curious that man should
mark out such line OF conduct for

Capitol Hill. changed somewhat in ap.
pearance. but not i'll spirit. He has
lost some illusions. but gained in flesh,
and is still an outstanding. outstand-
ing. aggressive champion of things in
which he believes.
The farmers were very much in evi.
dence when Mr.. Watson came to the
House in the early nineties Of the last
century for one term. They were com.
planning Of low prices for their prod.
ucts and Of hard times generally. The
agricultural states were plastered
with mortgages.
Mr.. Watson sympathized so deeply,
he left the democratic party and went
over to an organization known az the
Farmers Alliance. then powerful In
the west and south. But the change
cost him his influence at home, and
he retired to private life, to become an
author, an. editor and an all-around
agitator for reform.
Strangely enough. the farmers are
very much in evidence now. Times
have not been hard with them. ct. re-
cent years. and mortgages are so
scarce the few remaining ones are
curiosides. The tillers of the soil
have been living in red clover for
quite spell.
The trouble today is the threat Of
lower prices for farm products. War
prices have given the farmers a taste
for something they do not want to
part with. and they are seeking gov
eminent aid against reductions. They
are putting up to the government a
very difficult proposition.
Will Mr.. Watson. as senator, speak
for them now as he did when a rep

growers are as complaining and in
sistent as the corn and the wheat

MIR. WILSON'S FUTURE
A TOPIC OF INTEREST

II Ii much more probable that he
will seek some place where his Ia
bors a. an author would be less
liable to Interruption.
At no time since his election eight
years ago has President Wilson
taken any keen interest in Wash
fngton's social life, and though
Mrs. Wilson has spent most OF her
life in the National Capital. she
has had very little part in it's So
ciety since becoming mistress of
the White House. for the war end
ed all such activity for a time, and
since the Presidents illness she
has devoted herself entirely to him.
Wherever the President may de-
eide to establish his home. whether
in the surroundings of Princeton,
from which place he entered public
life, or in some other picturesque
place. he is likely to live the re-
tired life OF man Of letters. his
principal contact with life being
through his writings
X X X +
Theodore Roosevelt on retiring
from the White House also devoted
himself to authorship. but it was
as the associate editor of one of
the country's large magazines.
And before picking up the pen he
took up sporting rifle and went
for long hunt through the wilds
of Africa, and because Of his char
acteristic vigor, Roosevelt. the
hunter and naturalist. always over
shadowed Roosevelt. the writer.
When William Howard Taft left
the White House after four years
incumbency he accepted the place
he still holds as member of the
faculty Of Yale University. He,
also. has attained some fame as
writer, but it is as a student of
current issues rather than as a his
torian.
After his second term as President
Grover Cleveland resumed the
practice of law to some extent, and
made his home near Princeton Uni
versity. Benjamin Harrison also
turned again to legal work after
leaving the White House. Half a
century and more ago it was not
unusual for a former President to
remain in politics and seek some
offiee lower than the presidency,
but this has never been done since

have been highly significant. But with
Harding's majority OF 100000 or
more. the casting Of 100000 votes
for Debs out Of total possibly Of
&c. 900, 900 is not 30 striking a mani.
festation Of discomfort and protest.
An analysis Of the Debs vote show
ing the sources from which 1t came
would be most instructive. It has un-
doubtedly been comprised OF many ele.
|ments. ranging from 'parlor socialists
to ultra-radicals. Probably not all Of
the 100000 who voted foI Debs-tf
that is the figure Of the poll--subscrfbe
to the doctrines Of ultra-socialism to the
point of being willing to put them into
effect. The Debs ticket was, perhaps,
ia vent for the dissent OF some who
democratic ticket. and were disssatis.
fled with the nominees and platforms
Of the ma jor parties. In the same way
the Christensen ticket was probably
used as medium of protest. Indeed,
the Debs and Christensen votes should
be added in order to measure the pro-
test spirit.
No word has come yet regarding the
size Of the vote cast for Watkins, the
prohibition candidate. With prohibi-
ton accomplished and an enforcement
law on the statute books there is no
further reason for a separate prohibi-
ton party, and doubtless many who
formerly voted for such a ticket have
at this election cast their ballots for
one Of the major parties, realizing that
the surest way to secure full enforce
ment is to fasten upon one or both of
those parties the responsibility for car.
ryins the law into effect.

Gov. Cox and 1924.

Gov. Cox for leader again in 1924?
One Of his admirers has 20 hailed him.
1t seems most unlikely. The defeat
WIS too overwhelming. Had the con-
test been close, a second try might rea-
sonably have been asked. But on Tues.
day he was buried under an avalanche.
He did not have q look.in anywhere
Ia contest was waged. Friends and
foes alike Of the league failed him.
Vets and drys alike opposed him. The
states Of Murphy. Nugent, Taggart
and Brennan all voted for Harding.
What would give him prestige in a
second race?
Gen. Mcclellan, who was overwiaelm.
ed in 1864. was never again considered
for the presidency. He figured In poll.
tics. but was never again a national
quantity.
Gov. Seymour, who reluctantly led
the democracy in 1868. was never
asked to lead it again. His defeat
took him completely out Of the na.
! tional equation.
Horace Greeley died soon after his
defeat, but had he lived he would
never have been thought Of again in
connection with the democratic leader.
ship. Indeed, he might not have been
; in analiation with the democracy four
years later. His one nomination VA
so palpably inappropriate. tho mistake
would not have been repeated.
Since 1904 Judge Parker has applied
himself to the practice Of his profes
sion. Politics has had small claim on
him: and he has not been pursued
with offers Of nominations or Of Of
fee.
Gov. Cox takes his place among the
badly beaten men, and none of them
ever came back.
