atly democrat. TAX INCOMES Congressman Hall of Mlitouri i a strong advocate of an incoms tax. He has not prepared a bill but he has prepared the following statement of principle; FirVt Funded inveatmenta ahould be taxed without exemption and be maJe the standard of the maximum tax. Second Net personal earnings should be halved In all calculations in order to re duce them to the basis of the maximum fax rite. Third Capital invested In business thou'd have Its income taxed at a funded rate. Fourth After deducting from the cross Income of a business man the fundtd rate on his capital, the balance is to be consider ed as personal earnings to be treated as provided under section 2. Fifth Income from land should bt tax ed at funded value after exemptions of betterment, amelioratlan or Improvement. As to exemption, all incomes beljw $2500, deilved under sections 2, 3 and 4 ahould be tree of t?x as well as those under I, if necessary to pievent a double tax on the same income. The rate of tax on all incomes above $2500 should te 5 per cent. Mr Hall says: "In the year 1SS9. 63,000,000, or about $1 per capita, were collected from the con sumers of woolen goods, cotton goods, and Iron and steel for the purpose of revenue for the United States. It is safe to say, on a conservative estimate, that, in order to secare this revenue, it cost the people of the United States $450,000,000, the bal ance being paid as a bounty to the manu factuiing establishments of the United States. In other words, for every dollar placed in the treasury of the United States there were $7 put in the pockets oi the .protected manufacturers. Now if we had had an Income tax that would have yielded $63,000,000, the consumers of cotton goods, woolen goods, and Iron and steel manufac tures in this countr wou'.d have saved $450,000,000 vtarly, an amount almost equal to the state, county and local taxes of nearly every state of the union combined. "Mr Thomas G Shearman, who appeared before this committee a few weeks ago, es timates that 25,000 persons in the United States own 831,500,000,00 worth of prop erty. Put the income upon this property at 5 per cent, and it would yield annually 8157,500,000; and putting.tho income tax at 5 per cent on this amount we would have the handsome sum of $7,S7 5,000 yielded from tills source aloi.e. Placing the estimate of the number of persons In New York, Phil adelphia, Eoston and Chicago who have Incomes of $250,000 at 1,200, we should derive from that tourc an income tax of I 912,500,000 annually. "According to the figuiesof one of our ablest statisticians, under the present system of indirect taxation ii,6jo,ooo families, who average frjCS annual Income to the family, pay 90 per c:nt cf the taxes of this govern ment, m l not on!y to the government, but to the protected manufacturers and monop olists, while iS:,o9i families that average 8-3S,:35 annual incom to the family, do not pay more than 3 per cent of the gov ernmental revenues. In Great Britain, where they have an Income tax, such a condition of things could not exist, and it is this argument more than any other, In my judgment, that has kept In existence the present income tax law of England for over 50 years, and Its writers admit that It is now on a firmer bads than it ever was. 'One of the objections urged to the in come tax is that is inqusttorlal in Its charac ter, and that a great many persons would evade guch taxation by perjury. Ic does not lie In the mouth of any advocate of our present system of taxation In the states to urge this objection. Would any reasonable man take the position that it is any more unjust or Inquisitorial to require the wea'thy class to state upon oath their wealth and income, and does It place any greater re ward upon Perjury than the Hesent state tax system that requires every man In the ala'e, every farmer throughout the country, to furnish a sworn list cf his propcityt giving the number of hop sheep, horses, grain, watches, sewing machines, bank deport', bonds and notes? It seems to me that some of the greatest dliticullies urged agiiost tha income tax dissolve upon closer examination of its real merits. The funda mental principal is that the basis of taxation I s the protection which one receives from the goTernment for the year for which the taxation U collected. In closing his remarks Mr Hall called a'.tention to the fact that foi the last eigh teen years the Knights of labor and the 'National dangers representing more thao 4,000,000 men who work wl:h their hands have asked with one voice for an income tax law, while within a short time many wealthy men, and especially George Gould had admitted the justness and wisdom of such a ax. In the election of a full set of officers fo, the city government at the coming city election care should be taken to secure those who will guard the Interests of the city well. Economy in public expenditures, equal and exact justice to tl! tax payers of the city and special privileges to none would be very safe as well as a vety heaNiy rule adopt in the management of city affairs It Is Ur more important that we have safe, careful 11 it rubers of the couman counc than that we should have republicans, dem ocrats, or populists, as such , for such officials The people 6hou'd awaken to the best tereets ot the c ty at the coming city election as it may be the point upon which ma hinge the future properity of the dry.
