EVENING EDITION.
THE REPORT OF THE INTERNA
. - REVEN US COMMISSIONER.
The reDort of the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue, Mr. Jos. S. Miller,
shows that the total collections for
the year ending 30th of June, 1886,
were $1 16,902,845.54an increase
over the preceding year of $4,481,-
724.4. This is a good sign for im-l
provement in trade. It shows- that
people are gaining more confidence
and business is advancing, it cost.
$4,300,000 to collect, it being .3.67;
; per cent, of the Sum collected a re
daction of $155,000 upon the pre
ceding-vear. This shows that the
service is being more economically j
worked, which is a good thidg- fori I
tno- democrats. it costs less per
, cent, to collect the internal tax than
the great War Tariff tax. . Remem
ber that.
Of this tax collected $69,092,4
263.30, are upon spirits-an "increase
of $1,581,054.67. The tax" on to.
i bacco was $27,907,362.53, an increase
of . $1,500,274.05. On fermented:
a w liquors (ale, beer, &c.) $19,676,-
731.29, an increase of $1,445,949.26. j
... Including all the receipts the- aggre-
, gate is as given above.
It will be interesting to see what
States furnish the goods that bring.
'the taxes.1 It will be seen that those
States which furnish most are the
very States that favor the continu
ance of the Internal tax; while those
that -make the most fass and growl
loudest are the States that furnish a
great deal less
Itis all nonsense and bosh when
you hear papers saying that Virgi
nia or North : Carolina pays this tax
or that tax $n tobacco nd whiskey.
It does no such vthuig;-jEvrybody
ougnt to tcnow.fthat the: Consumes I
pays the tax. - No manrho does not
dnnk or smoke pays a farthing tax
on either, lliey who dance pay the have collected these instructive sta
piper, and they who smoke imported I tistics from that excellent hnaltK
turer nor seller pays a cent of the tax.
It is humbug tlsay otherwise and
i only deceives.-;; ... ; ; . .. r.
Let us turn to Mr- Miller's report.
What do we find? We find that cer
tain States furnished products upon
which were collected taxes as follows:
'Illinois. ....... i ....

So it is only misleading when pa

North Carolina is always, fussing
and fuming over the ''damnable" and
"infernal" and "detestable" internal
tax, and yet North Carolina fur- J
nishes goods that pay but $1,744,-
959.29 tax, not one 1 cent of which
comes out of North Carolina. t
The tax on liquor, beer, wines,
. . . . ' n?
cigars, tobacco, , cigarettes, snun,
&c, that North Carolina does pay is
Baid to amount to six or eight miUion
dollars yearly. But mind, this tax
is voluntary and is what is paid for
private, personal indulgence. "Men
who neither smoke, chew, nor drink
do not pay a penny" of this self-as
sumed tax. Men pa v for luxuries
and ought to do so.
There is no wiser, better tax on
earth than that levied on these vices
and unnecessary personal indul
gences, rne oest or an revenue is
that derived from taxing the lux'
uries. and because it is the easiest
paid. . .
To blot out . the tax on needless
and costly luxuries and put the whole
burden of revenue to support the
Government upon a Tariff system is
to insure for all time a continuance
of the taxes on the poor marts neces
saries of life. Tho Stab does not
system as that.

the cotton mills in this; country hasf
increased forty per cent.,' while ithe
wages daring the ten years have tan

Indebted for the life of my little daughter, I take
pleasure in submitting the following statement"
Which I feel is due to the public for the benefit
of suffering humanity.
m the year 1833 my daughter was poisoned by
what is known as poison-oak, and in a very short
tinw she was completely covered with sore?.
The pain was Intense, and her arms, legs and
face were the exact fac-slmlle of the bark of a
tree. She was inoapable of using her limbs. I
immediately called in a member of the medical
profession who said It was the wort ease that
he had ever seen, and no one who saw her
thought that she could possibly recover. Only a
mother can appreciate my feelings as I gazed
upon my child in this condition. In this frame
of. mind I saw the advertisement of Swift's
Specific in the Charleston News and Courier and
Immediately commenced to give her 'this rfedi
cine. The first bottle showed such a marked
Improvement that I continued it, and before the
third bottle had been used she had entirely re
covered. I would " have given the. above statement
sooner, but every one who knew anything about
the poison oak stated that they never knew a
case cured that did net break out every succeed
ing spring. For my own satisfaction I waited,
and can now safely assert that it was a corrplete
cure and it has not made its appearance since in
the "slightest manner. I cannot be thankful
enough that I saw the i advertisement and pro
cored the medicine.
