THE KECORD.
CBDAKTOWN, OA., MARCH 27, 1870
Tho Gadsden Time* t of a lain Unto,
in Riving a sketch of tho busim hh rnon
and buKiiiohH of Gadsden, Ims this to
•ay of tho Mohilo Lift; Insurance Com
pany and ilo popular general ngant:
M*j. H. O. Uandull, general agon!
and manager, occupying tho largo and
elognnt unit of rooms up stairs in
Kyle's brick building, fitted up with nil
tho appurtenances of iwfirat class of
fice, dosorvos special attention. The
Mobile Life has taken the lead in life
insurance in the South Officered and
tnanagod by some of the host finan
ciers iu tho country, its career Ims
boon marked by unprecedented Mio
cene. Ever alert to the bent interests
of tbo company and it« patrons, its
managers bavo adopted tlio newest
and most approved plans of insurance,
which nffoid tho bent protection to its
policy holders, at tbo lowest ralos.—
Tho Gadsden branch, organized Sep
tember 10, 1872, with tho following
efficient corps of officers, has met with
tbo groatest encouragement: Col. R
B. Kyle, 1'resident; Maj. N. M. Thorn
ton, Vico President; J, it. Nowlin, Sec
retary and Treasurer; >1. L. Cunning-
him, Attorney ; Joseph Bovans, Modi-
Oil Exaiuinoi*; J. T. B irrot, D. 0. Tur-
rentitie, Win, P. Simpson, A. L. Woocf-
Jiff* and H. Tlor/.berg, Finance Com
mittee; men of known integrity and
abiiity, with M»j. It. O. Uandnll, gen
eral agent and manager, who adopted
lifo insurance hh his life work, and
brought to bear all bis excellent qual
ities of lioad and huait in the mastery
of this great science. The e nnpany
has intrusted its interests iu most
worthy hands, as an exhibit of their
business shows. With nbout four
hundred policies iu force, ropresjnling
eight, hundred thousand dollars in
vaIuo iu this section alone, they have
loaned to their patrons about twonty
thousand dollars, secured by real ok-
tite; and Major ltamlall b is disburs
ed to the willows and orphans of bis
district over twenty-five thousand dol
lars, rescuing from want and penury
those loved ones that a Christian soi/i-
wient of prudence and forethought has
provided for. 'iho Major keeps con
stantly employed twcuty-fivo local and
traveling solicitors and agents in ilia
field, with hia own marked < xooutivo
ability to direct, which lias had ilattcr-
ing recognition by (lie insurance world.
Tho Company stands pi f o-eminently
ahead of all others iu this district, and
i ujoys the confidence that its inaivage-
mint merits.
A statistical genius estimates the
cort of fences in the United States at
$2,300,000 (TO. nml tluir annual re
pair, depreciation, und interest on first
cost at $100,000,000.
There are loud calls for Bishop Un
worn Au eager country longs to know
if ho is as much of a third-dorm man
as ho was before Iho Babcock and tho
Belknap scandals. There is no rea
son to suppose that trifles like those
would shake the devotion < f so ardoi.t
nn admirer.
Tin vo are no loss than 10,000 men
ill the Blink Hills and yet the groat-
e; t kind of a curiosity would ho one
genuine nugget of gold from that re
gion.
Dr. I'Yllon on Itcroi'iti.
Dr. Felton made au excellent speech
in Congress on Iho above 6tihj<-ct —
We would give it entire, hut for our
limited spaco, we only have room for
a few paragraph as follows :
.lust now there is much said and
written upon financial questions. Ev-
ory man has his theory of finance. In
flationists, contraotionists, roautaption-
isls, are ivory where and in all politi
cal pmtioR. Every financial nostrum
is put forward by its inventor and li
censed vendor as u specific for all tho
financial ills the country is heir to. 1
submit the solution of these difficul
ties in part is to faun 1 in curtail
ing expenses, economizing in every
possible way, uml husbanding tho in
ternal aud custom revenues of tho
OJiiutry.
1 will not speak at this time of ex
cise laws ; how odium they arc to tho
people of this oountry. Excise is tak
en from Iho Latin cxcidurc, to out off.
It is a term used iu finance to signify
■IV duty charged iti a country upon ar
ticles produced in that country before
they uio permitted to get into tho
bauds of tho public. These lawo were
introduced into Romo by Augustus.—
There they led to abuses innumerable,
and gave rise to many civil dissensions.
Tiberius declared that tho army, for
whoso benefit the tax hud been, de
pended upon it f6r support, and this
was tho ouly way by which ho recon
cih d the people to its coutiuuance.
This excise system was first intro
duced into England in 1020 by a com
mission under tho groat seal. lt>
first introduction into our civilian iou
was therefore an act of tyrauuy. Par-
liaiuout protested nguiust it mid it
was canceled. This tux was ro-estab-
Jjbhid in England by parliamentary
act, 1043, both of tho contending par
ties availing tlicrijf«4vf-t of its benefit?, j
hut pledging tli(iins(.l\< s to its aboli
tion as soon as tbo war h mid cloiv.
Cromwell, by acts in authorized! by
law, continued in exist* r.co, and a por
tion of tliisintcrii.il rivenue was as
signed to tbo crown in compensation
for hc-rodilary rovenm s arising from
feudal perogatives which woro then
abolished. Ho then to-day thissysUm
of tuxation stands out in our civilizu-
tiou as a modern supplement to an
cient feudalism.
Tho very name is objectionable to
American freemen. It was this hat
red to excise and slump dittos which
gavo birth to American libelly ; and
the spirit of Boston in 1770. which
now pervades Iho whole land, can nev
er bo reconciled to it. It is true tbo
government during the administration
of Washington inaugurated a limited
system of excise duties ; but even that
guvo lino to ii Hiirrcclions and ci .il
distill bunas, and upon tbo accession
of Jefferson to Iho presidency aud up
on his recommendation tbo whole sys
tem of internal tuxes was abolished.
May I not assert that whenever this
government shall become ns pure, as
economical, ns wiso ns it was iu tho
days of Jiffcrson, this anti-American
system of taxation will again disap
pear V IL doubtless was necessary to
sustain tho credit of .be mil ion during
tho war, and perhaps was needful for
a few years after the war, because ev
erything, labor, capital, production*
all, must and of right should be tnudo
tributary to tho credit ol thoAmoii-
can government. Evtiy sjuciis of
property and indu try is pledged to
tho redemption in good faith of evory
promiso and obligaliun « f tin govern
ment incurred in the war for the res
toration of the union.
But I. assert, if tho retrenchment in
public expenditures which this house
proposes to i fleet hail boon inaugura
ted six or eight years ago, and had
been adhered to by the dominant par
ty, tl is vixutious system of taxation
might to-day cense, and tho revenue
arising from customs duties levied up
on importation <*f fun igti merchandise
would meet overy demand <*f au hon
est ami wise government.
Let us see what this tax has dona
fi r the uinnufftftoiii h, the occupations,
and the agricultural products n of tho
country. It. Ims gathered frpiu all
these since 18(53, when it was put in
action, $2,080,51)0,703.88. Admitting
its necessity during Iho war and per
haps up to 1870, this excise lias o fi
ll clod from Iho labor and production
of American citizens since 1870 $789,-
2(54,805 87. It was made neuessary
hy the war and tho results of tho war
until 1870. Since that petiod it lias
been Hindu neecsaiy by (lie extrava
gance and culpable expenditures o(
I tic government.
What bus bet n dor.o for my own
State, n »Sluto dcHolulod by war? in
ruins, needing all the products of Inn
labor for recuperation and solf-susleo
lation. From (ieoigia since 18(50,
when the law became operative in that
State, it has gathered $10,008,410.0!)
From .1803 to 1800 it buu reaped,
from—
Virginia. $45,007,216 82
West Virginia 7,722,008 56
North Carolina 13,184,370 50
South Carolina 7,000.054 30
A lubtttiiu 14,004.057 35
Mississippi 10,200,837 45
Louisiana 31,740,017 00
Texas 8,037,060 44
Tciiiicbsco 10,104,820 00
Making a grand total collected from
the states especially devastated by
war, since their national r. Imhilitatiou,
of $157,840,046.00. This is a direct
tax upon their labor and tho great ag
ricultural staples of this section. Tho
increased amount paid by Virginia
shows what t. baceo is d ing toward
the support of the government, and
shows agriculture must ho drained of
its hard onrniiigs while many invest
ments of the capitalist are exompt.
from every form of taxation. 1 feel
that there is not only hardship, but
injustice hero. Tho commissioner of
internal revenue says iu his report af
ter giving the not amount of reoi ipts
from nil sources of internal revenue
during the last fiscal year in the sev
eral states and territories:
Tlio results (tuts shown ilo not indicate
that ilu- stales paying Iho largest amounts
of internal revenue pay iu proportion to
their rulntivi population or wealth.
This is the injustice connected with
this whole system, particularly with
that portion of the revenue extracted
from tobacco states. All excise duties
are strictly direct taxes levied upon or
cut i'll* cjWifm* from tlio industries of
tho country; and the commissioner
says the states paying tho largest
amount do not pay in proportion to
their relative population or wealth.
Tho constitution says, article 1, sec
tion 2:
Representatives and direct taxes shall he
apportioned among the several Mates * *
* * * according to their respective num
ber*.
Here in this report it is boldly an
nounced that tlio wealth of tho coun
try dot s tiv t sustain the burdens of
the country.
