'- JSow that the income-tax question is settled it is quite probable that some knotty propositions arising therefrom, may spring pp to bother the supreme court. That court decided that it is on constitutional to tax incomes because it is indirectly taxing property. Admit that proposition and is there any tax that the government can collect? . The government's principal source of revenue is from customs duties. A tax is nominally .levied upon the articles imported. For instance a duty is said to be levied on sugar. Is it? most assuredly not. The duty is imposed on the article and the man. who. im ports the sugar pays the govern ment the tax for . the privilege of importing it. ' The man who. uses, the sugar pays. the tax. . Now is that not a tax upon the income of the person who consumes the sugar? Most assuredly. The law simply says whoever eats im ported sugar must pay the government for the privilege, and the sugar is only the article by which the amount of the tax is fixed. As a matter of fact there is not a tax levied in the United .States either by the general government, state, county, city or school districts that is , not a tax on incomes. . The tax on real property is an income tax, the value of the property being taken as the basis upon which to calculate the amount of income that should be charged against it, and as this basis must in the very nature of things be an incorrect one, the tax is unjust in that it is not equally divided - and cannot be from the very nature of things. There can be no tax levied upon any thing but incomes, for you can't collect taxes on what a man has already ex pended. His taxes must be paid from the' money he receives, consequently every tax is a tax on incomes. The in corporeal subtleties which the judicial snind deals in, are beyond the ken of common every day people. '"A prim rose on the river's brim, a yellow prim' rose is to them ; 'tis that and nothing more." - A tax that comes out of their incomes - is an income tax to them, and it is nothing more. They cannot see those microscopical distinctions, those niceties of longitudinal hair parting by which the learned and be-gowned jus tices of the supreme court distinguish between a tax levied .upon the rents of land, which is inquisitorial, and the tax upon the "products of the land, which is all right. Suppoee the manufacturer of eigara should object "to - paying the in ternal revenue, claiming' it was a tax on inceuios and - therefore unconstitutional, crold the court or would it, compel the tax to be paid? We think it would be cause we think that it is not unconstitu tional for common, every day people to pay any kind of a tax. One would think that the Oregonian would profit by its experience last winter, and . hesitate before again dis turbing a sleeping lion. At the meeting of republican clubs the silver question was kept out, largely thtough the con servative action of many leading silver men who did not believe the question should be brought up. Instead of ap preciating this the Oregonian today rubs salt in their sores and uses their votes to show that they had no standing. It has started out to again hammer the silver faction of the party into solidity, and has made a wonderfully good start in that direction. The Oregonian has one thing in common with the dem ocracy, and that is it invariably does the wrong thing at the right time. N The dispatches yesterday state ' that Secretary Carlisle opened the discussion of the money question at Covington, Kentucky. The Pendleton Tribune in its bead line to the dispatch says : "Tremendous rush to hear Carlisle talk sense." We should think that down in Kentucky where Carlisle is best known that such a proceeding on his part would indeed cause a rush. It is probable that had the fact been advertised properly, the transcontinental roads would have been running excursion trains, for there are ' Jots ot people on this coast that would travel a long ways to bear Carlisle "talk sense." Salem wants a condensed milk factory We bad always supposed that all the milk down that way was used otherwise and that between state officials, the legislature and the clerks that milk was one ot the things heard or but never seen. However if theygo to condensing it, there is evidence of an over supply Wonder if this fact bad anything to do with the ruling of the supreme court that can Bed it to refuse to take the teat out ' of . the railroad commissioners mouths.. ' " li i mil 'AM irm -r us - 11-14? Jlf.-li U f O 2U Those who liave homesteads will find the tol lowing instructions from the in terior department of importance: "Timber land embraced in a homestead, or other entry not consummated, may "be cleared in order to cultivate the land and improve the. premises, but for no 'other purpose. If, after clearing the land for cultivation, there remains more timber than is required for improvement, there is no objection to the settler dis posing of the same.' But the question whether land is being cleared of its tim ber for legitimate purposes is a question ' of fact which is liable to be raised at any time. If the timber it cut and removed for any other purpose it will subject the entry to cancellation, and the person who eut it will be liable to civil suit for Hypochondrical, despondent, nerv ous, "tired out " men -tfiose who suffer' from backache , weariness, loss of en ergy, im paired mem- ry, dizzi ness, melan- holy and discourage ment, the re sult . of ex hausting dis eases, or drains upon the system. excesses, or abuses, bad habits, or early vices, are treated through cor respondence at- their homes, with uniform success, by the Specialists of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N.
