In that state at present there aro .VS weekly Alliance papers, many of them very prosperous ones, and one daily. Iu Texas they have been Allittncemen so long they don’t goi w ant to he anything else. They have rid of all tho “for revenue only” member* and most of those who want reform and vote against it, and when all the states get rid ot the scum there will lie a glorious day.— Ex.

When the dispatch appeared an¬ nouncing that there were over $ 100 , 000,000 of the internal revenue tax on whisky past due, there was considera¬ ble adverse criticism of the commis¬ sioner liy a portion of the public press on accent of his failure to collect this money and thereby relieve the United States treasury. An examination of this subject will satisfy any one that the tax *»n whisky is payable tin* distil¬ ab¬ solutely at tin* discretion of ler, and it may be deferred for twen¬ ty years or longer if he so de¬ sires. During all this time his goods are increasing in value many hundred per cent on the capital invested. There are few investments on the continent that yield an equal profit with an investment in whisky held iu the custody of government of¬ ficials undergoing the aging process; and, as before stated, these goods may be held for any length of time tho dis¬ tiller may desire without the payment of one cent of tho tax. This is the only form of property we know of upon which the owner can defer pay¬ ment of taxes indefinitely at his own diserct ion.— Ex. COKBOBOBATI t orilOKOB .

Banking is an honorable business, Bad men in the business can bring as much reproach upon any other occupa tion as upon banking. Any man using his own savings in an honest way ns a banker deserves as much praise as the industrious, frugal farmer or median ic. However, the system known as national banking is wrong. There nre good men doing a banking business under that law, but the men who pass ed the national banking act and the men oth*r who have om.-ials corrupted the congressmen aud until huge trust has been able t.» absorb nearly all the money, have bem the greatest ene¬ mies of this country. The greatest monopolists of the age are bankers, as a rule. They may Hot be known in connection with the hanks, lmt they are interested and help to corrupt con¬ gress and all of th** mem hers of the va¬ rious trusts work in harmony with them. These are facts that cannot be disputed. Some 30,000 of these men have absorbed two-thirds of all the property and money in America, and until the traitors art* hurled from the high places by the ballots of the peo¬ ple, there will be nothing but disaster facing nine thousand and ninety-nine while the one man gorges his pockets. —Pronrcssire I’nnn‘r. TUK FINANCIAL PROBLEM. Tn an extended interview in regard to the solution of the financial ques¬ tion, Senator Stanford, of California, gives his opinion on the subject ami offers some good suggestions. Among other things he says: “Let the government issue notes to all who want to borrow and can give perfect security. There being no bet¬ ter security than land conservatively appraised, let the government give notes to those who want to borrow on such real estate, charging the foorrow ers 2 per cent, interest, and taking from the borrower a mortgage on his land. No one would want to borrow unless he needed to, and if ever money was worth less than 2 per cent, he would take up his mortgage. The government would be protected, be eauso it would. mret of f *i the value rtgage f' r ’’ He* «fft "* 1 ol the -st<h* **■ ■■«.. laud. “A, . we are paying altogether too much interest. Men engaged in trade and commerce do not care so much how much interest they pay, be¬ cause they turn the money over quickly and make a profit, but to the farmer, who only turns over the money once a year, the question of interest is a vital one. There is an indebtedness to-day on our railroads of about five thousand millions of dollars, while the amount of gold is only about three thousand millions. Interest is being paid on money thnt has no existence. A large portion of our railroad bonds are held in foreign countries. Had our government had money enough in circulation, upon security, there would have been money enough at homo to build all our roads. If our government had been able to put out oue hundred millions forty vears ago, nnd could that money have been turned over onee a year in rail¬ road building, that amount would have built all our railroads, and we would not owe a dollar today abroad. The railroads are now entirely the product of American labor. “My desire is to see money so abun¬ dant among the people that a man may get credit according to his deservings even without collateral. The wealth of the country rest* principally skilled mechanic <>n the humblest labor. The cannot make anything without the co¬ operation of the humblest laborer. It is necessary to the prosperity of the eoun trv that the masses should be able to command such credit as they de serve. If a man has industry and in tegrity he ought to be able to find credit. ” THE INCOME TAX. Within the past few weeks the graded income tax. so long and earn¬ estly advocated in these columns, has come to the front •• one of the most prominent issues of the day.. It 1 .-, generally Wlieved that the president and his cabinet favor such a tax. and it may lie that Mr. Cleveland will take invasion in an early message to call the attention of congress to the mat ter. As a purely business proposition no partisan significance should be at tached to it. The question to l*e oon sub-red is whether a graded income tax is the M and fairest method of burden which sh. u.i he borne by all in proportion t“ their ability and the b*'n* fit* they derive from the govern¬ ment. We are supposed to have no privileged classes, an i therefore in the matter of taxation it is grossly ineon si*tent to exempt th< elat-s best able to pay. 4>a the other hand.it is only just that th, income tax should ss**t l*ear up* n the pvr people whose in com* • aro -.4 small that a tax would cr-.ppl* th* .r i-wn* r* an l make it mi ik ortbie f*-r them t*< earn an income, Thetas should t*>ncb th* h- who can t av with-*»t d;»tr*s«. Huch a tax w*.-U 4 *l r**s'h much v! the ccncaa.ed waalth 1 f t }j country, and people would pay () e j u proportion to their prosperity. Under our present system, the poor maB w ho invest* in visible propertv j s invested in bonds that yield him an income of 810,000. A graded income tax would correct these evils, and distribute more justly the burden of taxation. A tax on in comes of 810,000 and over, increasing the percentage on incomes of $ 20,000 and so on would strike those who are able to bear it without inconvenience, and we could then reduce our tariff to a free trade basis, and the government would raise its necessary revenue with out taxing the toiling masses into the mire of poverty. So much for the justice of such a tax. It could be collected. England collects it, and we can do it. Possibly it would tempt a few to commit perju ! r y. The penitentiary will stop all that, It would give us far less trouble than tho collection of the internal revenue taxes, and it would strike the very classes who have been enriched by the favoritism of the goverumet, and w }iose dutv it is to bear their propor tiolulte hh a rc „f t he public burdens.— j t hint a Constitution.
