VALLEY RECORD. The People’s Paper. ASHLAN I). Or... Thursday. April 11,1895 Inheritance and Income Taxes. Of interest to Americans at present will be Lord Playfair’s paper on this subject in Tbe North American Review. He calls attention to the fact that for tbe first time in English history the budget recently prepared by Sir William Har court, chancellor of tbe exchequer, “makes a bold and permanent applica tion of the principle that large estates, both personal and real, should pay death duties in proportion to their size.” In accordance with this idea, Sir William’s scheme provides that the person who in herits $500 shall pay to the government 1 per cent, or $5. One inheriting prop erty werth $5,000 must pay the govern ment $100 on taking possession. An es tate worth $50,000 must pay 3 per cent, and so on. An estate of $5,000,000 is taxed 8 per cent, and the inheritor must therefore pay to tho British government $400,000. What a cry would be raised in this country if such a tax should be attempted I In England Lord Playfair tells us it is a plainly understood principle that the rich must pay taxes in groater pro portion than the poor. They must pro cure licenses for keeping carriages, for displaying armorial bearings and even for the right to have a footman with powdered hair. There seems to be no question about the justice of the prin ciple. Lord Playfair affirms that the income tax scheme, both in the United States and Great Britain, plainly contemplates a graduated scale. In America under the new tax law all incomes below $4,000 are exempt In England all above $800 aro taxed. It is to be noted that Lord Playfair says: “These changes in the sys tem of English taxation have not been made without violent opposition by the wealthy classes. The adoption of gradu ation is a sign that democracy has largely increased its power in English politics.” He further declares that if accumulated wealth is unwilling to pay publio expenses according to ability it will lead to disastrous results in the way of increasing popular belief in the “wild ravings of communists and an archists. ” This growing tendency in duced the Liberal government of Great Britain to concede progressive death duties. Lord Playfair says wealthy peo ple could transmit estates intact to their heirs by getting their lives insured for enough to cover the death duties. He also quotes this saying«of the Earl of Derby: “I have learned more and more forcibly the uselessness, to put it on no other ground, of attempting to resist the progress of popular ideas, and I have come to think more and more highly of the moderation, the fairness and the general justice with whioh the masses of men, including all conditions of life, are disposed to use their power. ” As to an Extra Session. Four members of the late lamented congress, Charles Traoey, Democrat, of New York; Josiah Patterson, Democrat, of Tennessee, Bellamy Storer, Repub lican. of Ohio, and Robert G. Cou sins, Republican, of Iowa, lay before the people in The North America« Re view their opinions as to the need of an extra session of the Fifty-fonrth con gress. Their views, briefly summed up, are like the chapter on snakes in Ire land. There is no need of an extra ses sion. Mr. Tracey calls attention to the method by which, when greenbacks and treasury notes are redeemed in gold by the government, they are not withdrawn from circulation, but are given out again and brought anew to draw more gold from the treasury. One $10 note might thus withdraw $100 in gold from the treasury. But Mr. Tracey is of opinion that under the act of July 11, 1875, there is ample authority for issuing all the bonds the government needs and buying gold with them without the sanction of congress. Mr. Storer says that if the Fifty fourth congress were called in extra ses sion it would legislate on the financial problem to please itself, not to please the president, and that therefore there will be no extra session. Mr. Patterson says the interests of the east and the south lie together against the silver mining interests of the west, and therefore east and Bouth should unite on financial measures. Mr. Cous ins is of opinion matters are as bad as they can be now financially, and an ex tra session will not help them any. He thinks, and believes a majority of the people think with him, that the present financial troubles of the country are owing to deficiency of revenue. But the president can never be brought to adopt that view. If he were to call an extra session of congress, it would only be that the congress might pass measures of relief which Mr. Cleveland himself thinks proper, whatever the members might deem best Under these circum stances, the Iowa congressman considers that an extra session would be worse than useless. There is one thing we can say in the United States from this day on. It is that no queen or empress was eve» wed ded with more costly splendor than the youngest daaghter of the late Jay Gould was. The cost of the floral decorations was not equaled in Russia when Prin cess Alix married the czar. The lavish display which empires and kingdoms authorize for their rulers on festal oc casions was in some respects excelled by that indulged in by an American pri vate citizen. “400” ism. estheticism and all the pre vailing fads of snobs and snobbery have had severe blows but tbe blow struck Oscar Wilde bt’ tbe Marquis of Queens- berry was a knocker to cultism. “We take pleasure in recommending Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy because it is praised by all who try it,” s’aysJ. W.Cox & son. druggists, Marshfield, Oregon. No one afflicted with a throat or lung trouble can use this remedv without praising it. It always gives prompt relief. It is especi ally valuable for colds it relieves the lungs, makes breathing easier and aids expectora tion. A cold will never result in pneumonia when this remedy is taken and reasonable care exercised. For sale by E. A. S herwih . Simultaneously with the Gould wed ding and the Vanderbilt divorce anoth er great event claimed the attention of the country. This was the advent form ally of the new silver party, or, as it calls itself, the Bimetallist party. It appears before the country standing on the platform of free silver coinage. It will gladly accept as recruits to its ranks men of all the otbor parties and of no party. The new party’s chief sponsor, ex-Congressman Joseph C. Sibley of Pennsylvania, tolls us the Bimetallist party will undertake to elect a free coinage president. It has a large contract on its hands. Mr. Sibley says the Bimetallists do not care whether their candidate for president is a Demo crat, Republican or Populist, or even if he be also the presidential nominee ol one of these parties, just so that he is right on the silver question. A Tacoma dispatch 6ays: George Leschi, a cousin of Jim Bouchett, the Nisqually Indian medicine man who was murdered three weeks ago, has been haranguing the Nisqually tribe, and says that 40 of them will march to the Muckle-Shoot reservation, and demand a big indemnity of the relatives and tribesmen of Jerry Dominic, who killled Bouchett because he failed to cure Dominic’s children. If the indemnity is not paid Dominic and his relatives will be liable, according ¡to Indian cus tom, to be killed at any time. A year ago the steamer Newbtarn was wrecked on the rocks off Point Vincent, and now the owners have brought suit against members uf the crew to recover $250 which the sailors received from the sale of the propeller. The men say the wreck was abandoned and was fired to cover up evidence that she was a smug gler. Further news comes of a later insur rection at Presidion, Tex., among the Mexican fanatics who are followers of the woman known as “Saint Teresa,” who claims to perform miracles by the aid of divine power. Some of her ad herents were arrested for disturbing the tranquility of the people and their at tempted rescue resulted in the death of several persons. Another railroad project is mooted at San Francisco. It is to build a line along the ocean shore from San Fran cisco to Santa Cruz and thence to Tu lare. Eastern capitalists are interested in the scheme. The company was or ganized a year ago and surveys were made, but hard times put a stop to ope rations. The line is to be called the Weet Shore and Valley railroad. Kidney. E. W. J oy C ompany —Gentlemen: I have suffered from kidney trouble for two or three years.

Harry St. John, son of ex-governor St John of Kansas, a member of the last Oklahoma legislature, shot and killed his wife recently. Irene Madden, six years old was killed in front of her home in Brooklyn by a trolley car. Her body was shockingly mangled. She was the 108th victim killed by trolley cars in Brooklyn. The Northwest National bank of Chi- jago was robbed of $5,000 by an employe named N. W. Griffin. He has been ar rested. He speculated in stocks. Grif fin worked in the bank for 20 years. State Senator Hart shot and killed his hired man, William Milne, at Casper, Wyo. Hart claims that his employe was too familiar with Mrs. Hart. Hart is one of the most prominent and wealthy men in Wyoming. Milne had worked for him many years. A train on the Rock Island road was held up near Dover, O. T., by five men. The express messenger was shot for re fusing to open the safe. The bandits robbed the passengers of obout $800 and a large quantity uf jewelry. A posse pursued the robbers and killed one of them in a fight. A special from Wantoga, O. T. says: Al EVans and Dr. Babb, bedfellows in a hotel, quarreled over the proper division of the bedclothing, and Evans, drawing a pistol from under the pillow, shot and killed Babb. When Sheriff Wilson at tempted tp arrest Evans he was shot twice by the murderer. Wilson is not fatally injured. Evans is in jail. He ie> notorious desperado. Brakeman Charles Nolan was killed and several other train hands injured in the wreck of a mixed train near Wa- buska on the Carson and Colorado line. There several cars of cattle in the train. The animals in one car became fright ened and rushed to one side of the car causing it to turn over, thus derailing the rest of the train. Two dozen head of cattle were killed. A saloon and grocery store in the Fishermen’s Exchange at New Orleans were demolished by an explosion and five persons were killed. It was first surmised that the mafia had taken this means to avenge the death of an Italian who was killed by the proprietor of the saloon, but it seems more probable that a quantity of powder in the grocery was accidentally exploded. The Palace hotel at San Francisco was the scene of a romantic and sensational tragedy a few days ago. Carlo Enrico Reta shot Miss Adele Wolf and then killed himself • Both were shot through the heart. Reta and the girl were lovers but her mother objected to their marriage. Reta was out of money and had pawned everything he owned. He was a lieutenant in the Italian army and was away on a leave of absence. Frank Colvin, one of the best known oountry editors in Nebraska and low«, killed himself in Omaha in the presence of Miss Early, a young Jady he wished to marry. Colvin left a letter stating that he went to Omaha to urge Miss Early to marry him and she told him she had secretly married another man. Miss Early denies that she is married cr that she was engaged to Colvin. Colvin was editor of the Randolph (la.) Reg ister.

FOX & GOOD, Ashland, The prospect of relief from drastic cathar tics for persons troubled with constipation is poor indeed. True they act upon the bowels, but this they do with violsnce, and their operation tends to weaken the intest ines. and is prejudicial to the stomach. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is an effectual laxative, but it neither gripes nor enfeebles. Furthermore, it promotes digestion and a regular action of the liver and the kidneys. It is an efficient barrier against and remedy for malarial complaints and rheumatism, and is of great benefit to the weak, nervous and aged. As a medical stimulant it cannot be surpassed. Physicans cordially recom mend jt, and its frofessional indorsement is fully borne opt bv popular experience. Appetite and sleep are both improved by this agreeable invigorant and alterative.
