the; '300 militirgn had Inst left on

of the nudLer of "companies which had

his victim.
X"It is the Memphis ; killing over

FUSE'
AN INCOME TAX.
Seasons in Its Favor txtrecta from Con
Sroesmasi Hal is Article.
Thfl following are extracts from
Uriel & Hall's article in the March
Forum: ,
"The wealthy clnssea of the eastern 7
tales, who are now opposing us In the
enactment of this bill, are embsrra&s
Ing the best friends of a peaceful gov
ernment The principle that ths
wealth of this country should help to
bear the burden of national taxation ia
too well settled by logic, by authority
and by experience to' justify extended
argument now. Too often already have
members of this congress been warned
that, whenever the richer class should
be asked to share the burdens of gov
ernment, they, prompted by avarice,
would denounce the suggestion. It is
their position, not mine, that needs de
fense. I
"in a recent speech in the house of
representatives, I said:
Were I called upon to frame a law
4lrtU,d k"P demagogy, that
would take the last grain of lustiee
from the conglomerate -mass of popu
listic heresies, it would be an income
tax law.' I sincerely feel that every
word I said was true. Under our tariff,
system its burdens are put upon eon 1
sumption (the necessaries of life that
the poor must have or perish), and a
poor man with a wife and five children
is forced to pay out of his small income
a larger sum for the support of the gov ,
ern men t than is the average man of
great wealth with a small family.
"All the greatest authorities on taxa
tion say that the subject of a nation :
should be taxed to support that nation
according to their ability; not accord
ing to the section in which they live;
recognizing that we should all be com
mon bearers and common supporter, of
a common country, ignoring sectional
ism.
I "Senator John Sherman, In a speech
delivered in the United States senate,
, March 15, 18S1, used the following lan
guage: I " 'The public mind is not yet prepared
to apply the key of a genuine revenue
reform. A few years of further ex- j
perience will convince the whole ooir
of our people that a system of nation
taxes which rests the whole burden o(
taxation on consumption, and not one
cent on property or income, isiatrinsio
ally unjust
I " 'While, the expenses of the national
government are largely caused by the
protection of property, it is but rig tit
to call property to contribute to u.-i
( payment It will not do to say tuat
; each person consumes in proportion to
! his means, That is not true. Everv
one must see 'that the consumption of
the rich does not bear the same relati q
to the consumption of the poor, as the
income of the rich doe3 the wage of ,
the poor. As wealth accumulates, ti.i
injustice in the fundamental basts of
our system will be felt and forced upon
the attention of congress.
"Thorold Rogers Says: Taxation In
proportion to benefits received is u
ficiently near the truth for the practical
operations of government' , Rousseau
and Mirabean, J. B Say and Garnier,
have approved of this system, whilj

Under the heading "A Tidal Wave oi

"If the democrats put through the

"That is what thousands of men in
