Wlmt mi Income Tux Is.
from the New York lrlbuuo
The tendency of an income (as is
to lead people to evasions and false
statements. I well renumber the hos
tility w ich cxibtcd against tho tax
during its existence in this country.
Busiicss men of all kinds protested
Hcainlt it as tiicddlosotno and unfair.
Mypcoplc puidnn income tsx on
large sums of money who had aot
made a fcinglo dollar, simply to avoid
an exposure of their finances. Many
more paid no tax at all, no matter how
large tluir incenie had been. I knew
a largo number of men who became
wealthy during thoso years whose
nanus never appeared on tho iacomo
tax rolls at all, and many whoso names
did were down for so small a sum as
to make the law actually ridiculous,
Persons with stated incomes, that
is, persons receiving a regular salary,
the amount of which is easily ob
tained, pay tho larger portion of an
incomo tax. The intention of the
framcrs of this bill is, no doubt, to
collect large sums of money from tho
people who nro caoh jear receiving
largo profits. Thoto are tho very nun
who, in ono way or another, will es
cape tho burden. They will figure as
losses items which, when onco under
stood, should not be figured so at all.
Tho tax can bo assessed only upon tho
statement of each individual himself
as to how much tho tax should bo, ex
cept in cases of salaries and divi
dends, which can bo ascertained from
other sourcts.
Tho bill is also unjust in this; it
compels every corporation to make a
sworn statement of its profits, and as
sesses a 2 per cent tax upon the gains
of such corporations. Very many
persons havo their all in f-uch institu
tions. Their property in in the stocks
of thoso concerns. They receive
their dividends loss tho tax, and then
thoy aro compelled to pay a tax again
on those samo receipts.
No people during tho cxistenco of
tho former Ibcoiiio tax in this country
denounced it more constantly or ve
hemently than did the members of the

tiny dcnouncid the law as a republi

Thoy oullod it ''oltus legislation;" un
fair and dishonest luxation; a direct
inctntire to peijury, and an inquisit

only upon tho ground that it was
noccssary in order to provide for tho
enormous expenses of a terrible war.
Thoy admitted the charges made
against that form of tixation, They
defended it only upon the ground of
absolute noccsity. They permitted
tho law to cxpiro as soon as the re
ceipts of tho government would war
rant. Tho Democrats, however, now pr
posn to revive that odious tax. Thoy
started out to frame a tariff bill which
phould bo constructed for the purpose
of raising rjvcnuo only. Instead of
htiilding huch a measure, they havo
framed a law which will prevent tho
raising of revenue and create a deftoit
of over $70,000,000 a year. In or
der to mnke up for that deficiency,
thoy are aro willing to adopt a tax
which they havo reviled for many
yeirs. If they keep up tho ruin thoy
havo already wroucht in this country,
by actually breaking up tho businors
of our best American citizens, tho in
como tax will be of little uso, for thoy
will absolutely prevent any largo in
comes from being made, This whole
sohemo had its origin in tho minds of
a few westorn and southern fanatics,
who seem to thhlk that the great ob
ject of legislation in tho Ueltcd States
Bhould bo to prevent any American
from doist' a coed business. Tho en-
tiro Wilson bill is aimed directly at
tho prosperity of tho pcoplo of tho
United States.'
It is quito proper that this internal
rcvenuo measure Bhould bo attached
to the Tariff bill. Tho two plans na
turally bolong together. It Is no more
than fair that tho party in power, if it
proposes a measure which reduces tho
receipts of the nation below its daily
wants, shall also state in tho samo bill
in what way it proposes to mako up
tho deficionoy.
Tho men who opposed attaching the
internal rcvenuo features as an amend
ment to the Wilson bill did so largely
becRuso they feared that such an
amendment would defeat tho entire
bill. On tho other hand, tho men
who were dctermiocd to pass tho in
come tax feared that, unless they
could havo tho advantages which would
como from the tariff reformers, they
could not, single-handed and alone,
levy any such tax at all, Tho result
is iho measure in its present fotm.
Tho press of tho country are largely
declaring that tho joining together of
two such radical sohemos endangers
both and is likely to end in tho defeat
of tho Wilton bill, even in tho House.
Mr. Wilson himself indulges in no
ueh fears. He telographs a journal
in this city that tho bill will surely
pass by a largo majority. I am in
clined to think, so far as tho House is
concerned, ho is quito right. When
tho fiual voto shall come, I look to see
tho great majority of tho dcraoiratic
members cast their votes solidly for
.tho measure. There may bo a few
democrats who wilt havo tho courage
to voto against the bill. Tho press of
tho country seems to overlook the fact
that tho great majority of tho Demo
clats in the present Housn of Repre
sentatives boliavo in precisely such
nonsense as is coutainrd in that meas
ure. Tho majority of thoso men are
ut heart free tradois. Thov halo tho
pruf-peritv of tho United Slates, be
ouusu such prosperity is largely north
ern. The majority of the democratic
members cf congress Delitvo in an
"incomo tax;" not at all becauso they
consider it a fuir and just tsx, but be
causo they think tho bulk of it will
como out of tho prospeiotis mon of
tho north, whom thuy hate.
Understand mo. I at ill look for the
passage of tho Wilson bill with all its
present deformities through tho lowor

(louso. Whether my prediction be
oorreot or not will perhaps be kaown
boforo this articlo reaches the mass of
its rcadtrp. The first day of Febru
ary is now fixed as tho date for the
final vote.
Tho bill has since passed tho House
and is now beforo the Senate.
I believe, however, that no suoh bill
can get through tho Senate. They
may pass a very bad bill, but tho Wil
son bill in its present shape must, I
believe, fail in the Senate of the
United Slates. That bill is a result
of a combination of the rankest of
thn free traders and populist cranks,
who at this day dotmnato the majority
party of tho lower House The fate
of tho measure in tho upper House
wilt bo anxiously awaited by a suffer
ing people. Tho great army of work
ingmen in tho United Statce hive lit
tle interest in tho incomo tax feature
of that bill. They haye, however, an
immense interest in that portion of
tho bill which throws them out of
work or reduces their hard-earned wa
ges, iho business men dislike the
incomo tax feature as they dislike any
law which noacssitates an offioious
meddling or prsing into their private
affairs, but they dislike still more that
portion of the bill which will prevent
them from earning any incomes at all.
