TAXES A.'l TAXES.
James A. Roberts, in the May
Porum. has a very interesting arti
cle on uThe Progressive Inheritance
Tax." which thro.vs a irreat deal of-
light upon that subject. Among the
most striking illustrations of the
workings of tax laws in general is
afforded by the inheritance tax. Mr.
"Roberts takes 107 cases at random
from thoe in which the inheritance
tax had been paid in ew York City
and prints a table showing the
amount of personal property which
the admiristrators paid taxes on, and
the amount of the same kind of prop
erty which had been given in to the
assessor by the owner the year before
death. The names are not given, be
cause, as Mr. Roberts significantly
says. -They were not the worst sin
ners nor the only sinners in this re
gard." We take from his list a few cases.
the first figures showing what the ad
rainistrator paid inheritance tax on.
the second showing the amount at
which the deceased while alive gave
in his property to be assessed for:
$3.544.343 -1 5.000: 10.252.357
500.000: 30.000.000 500.000:
2.01 5,552 5.000. And these are
fair samples ot the whole lisi. The
average per cent given iu taking the
whole list is one and three-quarters.
The total amount of the 107 estates,
tis per the administrator's reports,
was 215,132.3GG; the amount given
m by the 107 persons before death.
3.319.412.
Mr. Roberts there foie concludes
that a progressive inheritance tax is
the on.'y possible remedy for the tax
dodging class, which at, death per
mits the state to recoup for all
moneys it was cheated out of by the
evasion of taxes. The article shows
plainly the evil, but it does not. in
our opinion, provide the remedy.
Laws can be made and can be en
forced that will compel property
owners to disclose every cent of tax
able property: but the trouble is
money influences prevent the passage
of such laws, and money influences
prevent their enforcement. Judae
Suiras, of the United States supreme
court, changed his mind on the in
come tax, perhaps "unawed by in- j
fluence and unbribed by gain." but j
his sudden conversion alwavs had a '
metallic flavor to us.

that they have nothing to tax. In

the Emigrants of France and the

ther back and behold the fall of
liome in her last great Consul IJienzi,
and they may learn from each of
these lessons that the blaze that kin
dled both these fires was the evasion
of taxes by the rich, and the laying
of the galling burden upon the

may learn this lesson; but it is Use
