Commissioner Rannf Sayi all Brok-
era are Bankers, and that Borrow
ed Money is a Deposit and Subject
to a United States Tax.
Philadelphia Times, 16th.
United States Revenue Collector Ash
worth yesterday began sending notices
to the stock brokers of this city that
Commissioner Eaum had decided that
all brokers must be rated as bankers
and pay taxes as such. The decision
also holds that all money borrowed by
brokers must be considered deposits
and taxed. -Also that the brokers must
pay taxes for all of the past years
when they were acting under a former
decision by Commissioner Delano that
they were not subject to these taxes.
The same thing was attempted about
tein years ago, when Columbus Delano
was Commissioner of Internal Reve
nue, and a committee of the Stock Ex
change went to Washington to try to
get the decision revoked. The decision
promulgated at that time was that all
brokers were bankers, aud also that the
money they borrowed should be rated
as capital. Mr. Fox, who acted as
spokesman for the committee, soon
convinced Mr. Delano that if brokers
were bankers so was every other man
engaged in trade, and he had no diffi
culty in convincing the commissioner
that borrowed money was not capital
not an asset, but a liability. The deci
sion was revoked, and since then those
brokers who do only a strictly broker
age business hae not been making any
returns to the Internal Revenue De
partment, as the head of that depart
ment had decided that they were not
required to do so by law. Before the
decision was revoked, however, Clark,
Dodge & Co., of New York, had paid a
tax on borrowed money and they
brought suit to recover it, and won
their suit, after a long contest, which
finally ended in a decision by the Su
preme court, it is said, that borrowed
money was not capital. The new deci
sion attempts to accomplish the same
thing by a different method, treating
borrowed money as a deposit, subject to
the same tax as capital. When the
agents of the department came here a
few weeks ago to examine the books
and accounts of the brokers prepara
tory to a new promulgation of the old
and once-revoked decision, a committee
of brokers visited Washington and
made representations to Commissioner
Raum similar to those which had con
vinced Commissioner Delano of the in
justice of the position which the de
partment had assumed. The commit-4
tee returned to this city fully expecting
favorable action. The brokers, there
fore, were not a little surprised and
very indignant yesterday when they
learned that the Commissioner had de
cided that they were bankers and that
borrowed money was deposits and that
they would be held for taxes during all
the past years during which they were
acting under a decision from the same
department that they were not liable.
Their notifications were accompanied
by the information that' if they made
out their statements covering the past
years and paid the taxes claimed to be
due therefor the department would not
enforce any penalties.
It is not yet decided whether the
brokers will make a contest in the
courts or whether they will bow to a
decision which they believe to be con
trary to law and common sense.
The Republic's Danger.
Litchfield Enquirer.
The real danger to American insti
tutions in this second century of our
existence as a people is the same that
threatened Rome in the seventh cen
tury after the founding of the city
unexampled material prosperity. Ko
modern country but our own so nearly
resembles Rome in this respect. Mas
ters of a new continent, with no equal
within thousands of miles and no rival
anywhere, we, like Rome after the fall
of Carthage, are a country with whose
power and progress no other country
can interfere. With an almost un
limited field for growth, with an im
mense, inevitable development of
wealth, the question for America to
day is, who shall gain that wealth, the
few or the many? In Rome it was
the few who monopolized the spoils of
the then known world, and the result
was the ruin of the State. Are we
sure that we are not hastening to the
same result in America? With all
our unexampled material prosperity,
is the average American citizen of
1680 growing more Intelligent, hones
ter, more independent, than the Ameri
can citizen of 1830, of 1780? In spite
of all our boasted material progress,
the eventual welfare of the republic
hangs on an affirmative answer to this
momentous question. The nation is
advancing or retrograding not in pro
portion to its increase in wealth, but in
proportion to its increase in the manli
ness, the independence of the individ
ual citizen. Though we build 100,000
miles of railroad if is no crain to us as a
people if those miles of railroad are in
the hands of a few monopolists, but a
loss. If our mines and our manufac
tories breed a race of masters owning
them; and a race of servants working
them, the country is a loser in what is
worth, more to a republic than wealth.
The republican reader of history, then,
grows to fear this avalanche of mater
ial prosperity which may, if monopo
lized by the few, destroy the liberties
of the many. Sudden wealth seems
almost as great a danger to the nation
as to the individual. It is a manure
that, if suffered to lie in heaps, threat
ens the public health and breeds noth
ing but w"eeds ;. while, thinly spread it
enriches the whole land. It should be
the chief aim of the American states
man to prevent these undue accumula
tions to which thoughtless people point
as evidence of an era of unexampled
national prosperity.

The epidemic of tpphoid fever at

Mr. Charles O'Conor, the distinguish

this is for the reception of his immense

Mr. O'Conor Intends at his death to
leave this house to the local Catholic

It is only within a few years that the

The people of the United States, du
ring the fiscal year ending June 30, 1881,
consumed 63,526,594 gallons of distilled
spirits. Of this only 2 per cent, was
imported; 28,030,601 gallons of wine
were also consumed, less than one-fifth,
of which came from abroad, and 414,
771,690 gallons of malt liquor, 1,000,000
of which only were manufactured in
the old country. That's pretty good
drinking for an infant Republic.
It is related in Gordon's book on
"Central Africa" that the Christian
King of Abyssina cuts off the noses of
those who take snuff and the lips of
those who smoke. He also cuts off the
feet and hands of those who offend
him. He gets drunk every night, and
reads the Psalms at dawn. No woman
is allowed within 300 yards of his
palace. He is of the strictest sect of
the Pharisees, and is a good king for the
dynamaniacs to practice on.
It is said that "Boss" Shepherd, who
used to "run" Washington city, has

With a Republican Congress it is possi

carry out this programme, but had
Congress remained Democratic he
wouldiardly have succeeded.
A new notion, and probably a sensi
ble one, is what the fashionable New
York girl calls a bare bath as a first
rate cooler. She gets into a room hav
ing a skylight, disrobes entirely and
sits in the sun's rays until every pore is
streaming. Then she rubs herself dry,
skurries under temporary cover to her
own room, dabbles herself with cologne,
fans the skin dry again, and feels as
cool as a cucumber. The effect is good
for an hour or two at least, and un
doubtedly worthy of praise from a san
itary point of view.
The negro woman who murdered a
little girl and boy, near Washington,
says : "I was going along the path. It
was not God Almighty, but it was the
devil who put it in my head to kill
them. I could not help killing them.
I did not do it with, the ax, nor the
washboard, but with apiece of wood
big as my arm, and about eighteen in
ches long. The children were running
about the yard of the house. I struck
the one with the long hair first, but I
don't know how many times I hit her.
I saw the ax in the wood pile after hit
ting them with the stick. What I kill
ed them for I don't know. The devil
got into me, so that I could not help
doing it."
A Sleeping Pike Caught.

THE COTTON ItllLXY CAMPAIGN.
Active Operations fn Mississippi arid
Tennessee
"There has been wonderful activity
throughout the South during the past
year in the-establishment of new" cot
ton manufactories, and a great deal of
capiuu uas oeeu mvesteu in sucu emer
Drises.' Mississippi is moving extensively in
developing her manufacturing inter
ests. The nistory of ner Wesson cotton
mills has been profitable to her. Start
ing with one mill and $300,000 capital
only a few years since, her goods took a
premium at the Centennial Exhibition.
Another mill was built and the stock
doubled. Fortune still smiled upon
her and prosperity crowned the work.
About 30 per cent, was made, and then
another mill was built and the stock
increased to about 81.000.000. In Mav.
1878, the sound of the steam whistle
and the clash of the shuttle announced
to the people of Natchez that a cotton
factory was in operation there, and the
Seople gathered around to see it start,
me year proved it to be a paying en
terprise, ana at once the foundation
stone of the second mill for Natchez
was laid, and it is now about completed

A New Orleans company is starting
a large mill at Canton, Miss. At Wa
ter Valley the machinery has arrived
tor a small mill, to be enlarged if suc
cessful. At Vicksburg, the largest citv in the
State, a large cotton factory movement
is on toot, jn early $200,000 has been
subscribed in the city, and it is expected
to raise as much more East, and have
the Eastern stockholders take the man
agement, equip and operate it. Colum
bus, Miss., has a new cotton seed oil
mill, and is raising stock for a cotton
factory. The Vicksburg mill will use a
staple 1 inches long, buying direct
from the planters' wagon, will save all
incidental expenses, and will secure a
year's supply of cotton in getting the
crop of a few planters around the city.
Many of these mills are specially ex
empt from all taxes.
One of the largest mills in the South
is located at Nashville, Tenn., and a
dividend of 14 per cent, was sufficient
inducement to build another. The mills
at Pulaski, Tenn., have a specialty, and
are so overrun with orders that they
are anxious to double their capacity.
At Jackson, in West Tennessee, the
people intend erecting. a cotton factory,
and they have already about $50,000
subscribed for that purpose. Dallas,
Texas, is inaugurating a $200,000 fac
tory, and Sherman wants a $75,000 one.

A Pupil Forty Years Old.
Marlon County (Qa.) Argus.
A colored "school marm" in this
county has a number of men with fam
ilies attending her school, one forty
years old. Among the number is the
man with wham she is boarding, and
one of the first to receive the rOQ of
correction was her landlord. Two
weeks ago the forty-year-old student
was told his next failure to know
his lesson would bring upon him "the
rod certain." He says she is right, and
if while he attends her school he dis
obeys her commands or fails to comply
with her regulations that she ought to
whip, and his duty is to submit to the
chastisement without complaint. Pity
but that many of his white friends
were as consistent and as honestly fair.
