An income tax has never been pop
ular in the United States, although it
has finally been adopted as national
policy An income tax measure failed
of passage in 1872. In 1861 congress levied
a tax Of 3 per cent on incomes above
$500. The exemption was later reduced
to 5000. In 1864 when the prolonged
war made need of revenue greater, the
rate was placed at S, TIE and 10 per
cent, on varing scales Of income.
During the war, while the feeling
of patriotism ran high, the income tax
brought in as high as s73,OO0,OOO in
1866: After the war, when peoples
fervor cooled, the same law only pro-
duced s5,OOO,OOO. All of which shows
that taxation of incomes can be evaded
just the same as taxation of other forms
of wealth.

an income tax law unconstitutional

AN INCOME TAX FOR
MONTANA.

AS this editorial is written Wednes-
dav morning, reports from the Mon
tana legislature indicate that the state
will be given opportunity either to
adopt an income tax proposition by
amendment of the constitution or the
same thing may be accomplished by
direct enactment of the legislature.
Some of the students of the question
hold that the legislature now has power
to enact income tax legislation with
out referring it to a vote of the peo-
pie Others hold that a constitutional
amendment is necessary.
Regardless of the channel through
which 1t may reach the people, 1t IS
probably true that the income tax will
soon be part of the revenue raising
machinery of the state. This may be
perfectly all right 1t depends on what
use is made of the income tax. If adop-
ton Of the income tax principle IN the
Montana tax structure is used to lower
excessive taxation against real estate
and improvements the people OF the
state will probably welcome it. #, how
ever, the new tax should be used mere
" to raise still larger sums OF money
to be spent in additional governmental
expenditures without corresponding
lessening Of the tax burden elsewhere,
the taxpayers of the state will, without
the slightest doubt, register most
vigorous protest. The crying demand
everywhere is for less money to be
spent in government and for lowered
taxes.
The move to adopt an income tax
in Montana is in line with policy
long held by many to alter completely
the entire tax structure. There Is a
growing conviction among students OF
tax problems that the income tax is a
much more scientific method OF rails
ing revenue and that taxation of prop
erty should be done away with COM
pletely. These students favor the In
come tax chiefly because they main
tain it places the necessary tax bur-
den on those most able to pay and les
sens the burden on those least able to
pay. That is probably true in theory
and also probably largely true in prac-
tice. Yet the income tax has its weak
nesses and Is far from being a perfect
form of taxation. However, it is prob
ably big improvement over the pres
ent method based largely on property
taxation
Based on the theory that those able
to pay should be required to pay most
of the cost Of government, income taxes
are invariably graduated, with the
small income paying a small tax anc
the large income tax that that g gradually
increases as the income becomes
greater.
This theory, however. has not al
ways been practiced History shows
that an income tax in France prior tc
the French Revolution followed scale
according to which the rate increased
as the income diminished The peasan
was thereby forced to give up a larger
share Of his income than was taker
from the wealthy. That, however, i
contrary to present practice.
The income tax has long been uset
in Europe England started its use witt
tax OF $3.50 on an income of $500 ant
rose to 10 per cent Of large incomes
This tax was levied in 1898 Italy take
all incomes above $40 at a uniform

COAST GUARDSMAN
PAID BY RUM RING
Testifies He Received 500 Week
to Keep Liquor Runners
Informed.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA. February 15-A
former Coast Guardsman yesterday told
of accepting 500 a week from an al
legged S5,O0o 900 liquor syndicate to give
members information which enabled
them to land imported liquors along the
Delaware Bay shores
The testimony, offered by Solomon z
Coppens of Empire, Mich. was given in
Federal Court as trial of 10 men as
members of the alleged ring resumed
TWentyfour others have pleaded guilty
and charges viii be dropped against two
additional persons.
Coppens testified the money was paid
him by j. Frank Hilton, previously de-
5cribed by the prosecutor as the brains
of the ring. Hilton is now in Montreal
Canada, fighting extradition.
The witness, veteran of Is years
service in the Coast Guard, explained
he never knew anything official about
the maneuvers OF the liquor chasers, but
from his varied experience he generally
had a pretty good idea just what was
happening
Coppens said he was trapped by De-
partment Of Justice agents when he
called Hilton on tapped telephone wires
regarding an overdue s10O bill needed
to visit his Ill father. He declared that
some one, presumably Hilton, wired the
money to his wife at Cape May, N. j.,
and it was in this way that the "infor-
nation money" was traced.

CANADIAN DOLLAR
POSITION WATCHED
Banking Interests of Domin'
ion Are Strongly Opposed
to Initiation Pleas.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, February 15.-Whether
Canada eventually will push her cur
rency down with the British pound
sterling, or try to keep it up somewhere
near the United States dollar, is
question in which Wall Street has be-
come keenly interested
Agitation in the Dominion for inf1a-
tion, for reducing the value of the Ca
madam dollar, has been strongly op-
posed in important Canadian banking
quarters, but the course of other British
dominions, more recently South Africa.
in bringing their currencies down with
sterling, has made Wall Street wonder
If Canada's ties to London would even
tually prove stronger than her ties to
New York
Canada's financial links to New York
have become strong. for most of her
external borrowing for several years has
been in this market. The Dominion
has large payments to make in Ameri-
can dollars, and If she reduces her
currency further in relation to the
American dollar. it will make these pay
ments more difficult. Service charges
on her debt in this country for 1888
are estimated at well over $3.50, 1000, 900.
Furthermore. the United States has
very important interests in Canada
The Dominion is our second best for.
eign customer, taking more than Is per
cent of our 1882 exports. which was ex-
ceeded only by the United Kingdom,
taking more than 10 per cent. Eng
lands purchasing power in our markets
already has been sharply reduced by
the drop in the pound, and further
drop in the Canadian dollar would tend
to reduce further the Dominion's tax
ings Of our goods
Thus far, since England went off the
gold standard, Canada evidently has
been trying to keep her currency about
half way between the dollar and the
pound sterling. and until recently a
little closer to the dollar.
