Inheritance and Income Taxes.
01 interest to Americans at ‘ present
will beLord Pluyfair's paper on this
subject in The North AmericsuReview.
He calls attention to the fact that for the
first time in English history the budget
recently prepared by Sir William Har-
court, chancellor of the oxohoqucr,
”makes a bold and permanent applira-
lieu of the principle that large estates,
both personal and real, should pay death
duties in proportion to their size." In
nccordunce with this idoa, Sir William‘s
scheme provides that the person whoiu-
hot-its $500 shall pay to the government
1 per cent. or 85. line inhoriting prop-
erty worth $5,000 must pay tho govern-
ment $100 on taking possession. An (’5‘
late worth $50,091) "lust pay 3 pct cont,
and so on. All oslulo of $5,000,000 is
taxed 8 per cent, and tho inhoritor must
therefore pay to the British government
“00,000. What a cry would be raised
in this country if such a tax should be
sttemptedl
In England Lord Pleyfsir tells us it
is n plainly understood principle that
the rich must pay taxes in greater pro-
portion then the poor. They nlust pro-
cure licenses ior keeping carriages, for
displaying armorial bearings and even
lor the rightto have a {column with
powdered hair. There secum to be no
question about the justice of the prin-
ciple.
Lord Playfair affirms that tho income
tax echo-mo. both in the United States
and (Treat Britain, plainly coutulnplnhls
a graduated scald. In America uudor the
now tax law all incomes bolmv 34,000
are exempt. In England all above $800
are taxed. M It is to bo uotod that Lord
Playfuir says: "Those changes in tho sys-
tem of Ellglirh taxation have not boon
tnado without violent opposition by lilo
wealthy classes. ’l‘holldnptiml of gradu-
ation is a sign that democracy has
largely llll'l’l‘afiell its power in English
politics." lie furlhl'rdol‘luros that if
accumulated wealth is unwilling to pay
publil- oansos ill-cording to ability it
will load to disastrous results in tho
way of increasing popular bclili in the
“wild ruvingsoi communists and an~
archists." This growing londvlu-y it:-
rlut'od lilo Lihl'rnl govvrlllnl‘nt of (limit
Britain to concodo progressive death
duties. Lord Mayfair says wealthy poo-
plo could transmit estates intact tolhvir
heirs by getting their lives imurod for
enough to cover tho «loath duties. ilo
olsoquotos this saying of the Earl of
Derby: "1 have learned mom and more
forcibly tho uaoloesnoss, to put it on no
other ground. of attempting to moist
tho progress oi popular ideas. and l
have collie to think mom and more
highly of tho mmlorntiou, the fairness
sod the gcucrul justice with which tho
masses of inon. int hiding all conditions
of life, are llieptlllt‘ll to use their pow cr.’
All might hnvo boon expected by any
one having own slight kuowledgo of
constitutional low, the supremo court
of illinois has pronounced null and
void tho law passed in 1893 by the log-
isloturo of that stute forbidding the mo-
ploymcnt of women in fuctorios more
than eight hours a day. one of tho
most familiar of constitutional provi-
sions is the right gusrnnlmd loovory
adult individual to contract for lillt own
labor on such terms as he soon fit. The
eight hour law would doprlvo adult
women of this right. The decision in-
dicates that no legislaturo oml constitw
tionnlly onnct any law restricting
hours of labor among privsto Workman
or employers of sdult ego. Such law
would deprive the individual of both
liberty and property.

Pollccmen’s Souls. ‘
Mrs. Maude Bulliugtou Booth, that
beautiful as well as good woman, is go;
lug to bring the force of the Salvation
Army to bear on the saving or police-
men's souls. She thinks they have had
enough kicks and jocrs and scolding,
and now by kindness and sweet. persua-
sion she hopes to reform them and bring
them into the kingdom. Naturally
enough. Mrs. Booth bugins her work in
New York city. If tho Salvation Army
can save the policemen of New York,
what can it not save?
The gentle, eloquent enthusiast tells
us that live bluocoats have already been
"saved. ” Ono o’f them indeed as soon
all he is oil’ duty slips out of his munic-
ipal blue into the blue of the Salvation
Army and sings and shoots and preys it
with the best of them. But neither they
nor anybody also darn tell their names.
It is a comment on this fibril-dim) comi-
try, if it is a Christian country, theta
police otiiccr who has been converted
duos not dare let anybody know it for
fear he would be guyod out of his senses.
All good pcople must pray that Mrs.
Booth's efforts will be successful. Think
for one moment what a change Would
be wrought in a city that bad police-
men who wore honest, especially a city
that had policemen who always told the
truth and who never took a bribe to lot
on ovildoor osoapo, who never spongod
on the street car companies or the boot
saloons along their boat. Think of po-
lioomou who took a really humane and
kindly interest in the poor. the outcast
and the bad who came into their hands.
Think, but uo—it is too good to be're-
slizcd. Mrs. Booth has only converted
five out of tho 3,000 policomcu of New
York city thus for.

Half a (lotion yours from now the

than they are at present. The reason is
by that limo their ranks will be made
up largely of bravo and bright boys
who learned the military drill-in school.
Certainly “90,000 boys in the public
and private schools of the country are
now practicing the military drill as an
athletic oxort'iso, and they could prov.
tire nothing hotter.
