jeratd and ^dqrti&^r. Newnan, Ga., Friday, Jan. 20, 1888. THE INTERNAL REVENUE. Argru- Senator Morgan Exposes the ment for Its Repeal. From the Senator’* Boston speech. “Who oppose this work of national safety? The Treasury raiders, who look to that source for support, are. of course, opposed to a reduction of the spoils they seek to capture. So the men are opposed to any reduction who rejoice to find at any time any surplus money in the Treasury, to which re sort may be had for their purposes of public improvement, more reform, uni versal education by the Government, benevolence to people in distress, and a general pragmatical interference in the affairs of other people. Other classes agree to a reduction of the surplus rev enue in the Treasury, but they differ with free whiskey to drown his woes rathe? than give up his tariff tax of 7& Dents a ton on coal. But I do not care to worry you with a disquisition upon the difference it would make in the comfort of a poor family to retain the tax on whiskey, and reduce it on plain woolen wear for women and children and workingmen, and on 'salt, sugar, hats and'shoes, or even “bristles.” That is all plain enough to be under stood of all men. It does seem fatu ous that any statesman should ask the abolition of the tax on whiskei 7 , and of the laws that regulate the production of whiskey, before the States have made full preparation to meet this change in the laws of the United States. I do not know' of any State that has laws to regulate distilleries, as to their taxation, location or number. Without such laws the business of dis tilling would be as free in all respects as that of growing grain. “The church, the school-house and the still-house would frequently be- as to the method of .eluction. . , come near neighbors even in the older whoconcur with the present adnnmstra- > --- - - • • > ■ tion insist that the reduction of reve nue should be accomplished by a re duction and reform of tariff duties. Those who oppose the resolution insist that the repeal of the tax on whiskey that the repeal o the tax on wniSKcy otion of disorder and crime could ami tobacco, or liberal appropnarions- * , f distillation of from the Treasury, shall be adopted as the methods of effecting the reduction of the revenue. Our government is liberal to the degree of extravagance and of injustice to the tax-paying class es in its salaries, pension list, scientific bureaus, public buildings and other va rious expenditures. Congress, when it comes to spend money, seems utterly oblivious of what it has cost a poor onnvious or wjiat it nas cost a poor , ,, , , , ,, r ii -,r at this time, when they are not piepai man o earn each dollar of the millions , , + i,„ * . . . , ., . ed to control it, by removing the res- they vote to objects that are of little or . c . naM(ma i i aws UDOn the no service to the country. A worse or more corrupting policy could not be more corrupting policy coum not ue ,. . . , , , , results that involve the existence ot adopted than to accumulate vast sums ... • Tim States of surplus money by taxation, to fur ther stimulate the inventive power of men to find new objects on which to bestow it. The wicked injustice and tyranny of taxation for such purposes are enough to condemn it; but that be comes insignificant, in view of the dan gers of an assault upon the virtue of the people, whom their representatives in Congress would be tempted to de bauch with bribes for their votes, to be paid out of this surplus. When we ac cumulate by taxation a surplus in the Treasury merely 7 to gain-the political or personal influence which its expendi- tuiie will give us, we may be justly ac cused of having corruptly 7 destroyed the fairest heritage of liberty that ever de scended from sires to sons. Taxes should only be levied for the support of the. government, and fealty 7 to this dec laration is included in the oath of every man who swears to support the Consti tution. Taxes levied to enable Con gress to apply the money 7 extorted from the people to other purposes, of private benefit, are the mere spoils of robbery 7 . The other expedient for shel tering the tariff from any reform, and from all consideration or question, is the repeal of the tax on whiskey. This expedient has a curious medley of ad vocates. The alleged Democratic apo thegm, that “an internal tax is an in fernal tax,” is quoted lustily by high protectionists of the Republican faith as the climax of ‘wit and wisdom. If that is true, what shall we say of the tax on the national banks? What shall we say of all taxation by the States?, For that is all internal taxa tion. What denunciation shall we cast, upon Illinois, who must tax her people to pay for a vindication of jus tice that is of more value to the United States, in a single act, than the services of our standing army of 25,000 men would be in five years. Apothegms are remarkable sayings, but they are often remarkably false. Some of the higher thinkers among the Prohibitionists have discovered an immorality in the fact that the government recognizes property in whiskey by 7 taxing it. If ■tv in it, the argument might be logi- il; but we must know that the quan- ' the taxes upon it. “Others say that the States will ex rminate whiskey by prohibiting its anufacture under the recent authority Dubbs. the Kansas case if the United States ill withdraw all connection with it. sts with them to do, to avoid all inter- iced. Then there will be no whiskey tax, except foreign made whiskey, id as to that there is not the least ggestion of immorality. “The tariff i whiskey is innocent, the internal tax i whiskey is criminal,” would be [Other good apothegm for those who 1 States, where public opinion is said to lie a controlling force in tlu? suppres sion of vice. In the newer communi ties, and among the negroes of the South, no more potent agency Ion the be devised than the free distillation of whiskey. Whoever it was, in the time of our sectional hatred and retaliation, t hat desired a plan for “organizing a hell in the South,” was mercifully blinded when he failed to see the “infernal revenue” that his Satanic majesty would gather in that section by means of free distilleries. To turn loose this flood of evil upon the States, traints of the national laws upon the distillation of whiskey, would lead to communities in the South. The States must act first, and he ready to receive this flood before we tear down the dykes that the federal laws have built for their protection. If they 7 wait un til these are swept away 7 , they will be a long time engaged in assembling the voting power required to repair the damage or remove the evil. Until the States have put up their guards, I will never consent that this assault shall be made on their unprotected people. A cause must be sadly in need of the sup port of Justice, morally, and of sound foundations in reason, that can find no better support than is claimed for the present tariff in the suggestien that its excessive extortions can he spent in Congressional jobbery, or can be allow ed to stand in the, place of the tax on whiskey. A party driven to such straits for the upholding of a vicious system cannot long maintain the con fidence of the country.” A venerable New Yorker recently advertised, asking any one who wished to go to Europe, under pleasant auspic es, to apply to him, and giving his ad dress. This advertisement was seen late one night by a young man, who had been dining freely. He cogitated awhile, and then told the club porter to call a cab, into which porter and cab by assisted him. He told the man to drive to the address given in the adver tisement. Arrived there, he was assist ed to the sidewalk, and with much dig nity ordered the eabbyl to practice on the knocker of the old-fashioned resi dence. The advertiser stuck his vener able head out of the window, and howled: “What do you mean by waking me up at this hour?” “Come t’ansher ’vertishment.” “Well, sir, what have you to say?” “That’s orl. I've come to shay very shorrv, but I can’t go with you.

It fa in a wretched neighborhood—a district where dissipa tion and sin and sorrow and poverty abound. The population is a horrid mixture, including the worst colored element and tiie most vile characters of the levee white population. The streets are frequented hv bad characters by day, and arc the scene of bjawfa and fights by night. Div^ and dens and gambling re sorts, and doubtful locking places, make the place one to be avoided by all re spectable people. It is in the very heart of this place that the Women’s Christian Temperance union is carrying on its most effective local mission work. But its most flourishing department is the Bethesda day n ursery. The work of this branch is presided over by Mrs. William Sevant, who seems to be peculiarly adapted for charitable work. The nur sery was opened in November, 18^6, and from that date it has been the home of the babe from the little tiling 2 weeks old to the child of There the little ones live and chatter and coo and crow, and cry and laugh and eat and drink during the day time, while their wid owed or deserted mothers are out scrubbing or washing, striving to earn a livelihood for her family. Mrs. Sevant has been very successful in her work, but, of course, does not receive the liber al donations in aid of the little ones that she desires. She has secured as matron Mrs. M. B_ Smith, who has the immedi ate care of tho nursery. It is located on the second and third floors of the build ing, immediately above the mission chapel, and is fitted up with a view to th" comfort of the babies. Mothers who are striving to earn an honest living and who are obliged to w 7 ork out by the day, may carry their little ones to the nursery in the morning and call for them again at night when they return from the hard day’s toil to their miserable homes. They ar,‘ asked to pay each day ten cents, if they c;n; five cents if they cannot afford ten; two cents if they can spare it, and notliing if thdy have naught to give. The reporter was taken into the nursery the other afternoon, in the midst of the twenty-three babies, and the sight that met his astonished gaze cannot well be described. It may be said at the outset that the nursery clothes and feeds these little ones, as well as furnishes them a day home. Hence they were all clean and neatly clad. The youngest was three weeks old. It was tugging away at a well filled bottle for dear life, and had an extensive growth of black hair. Its eyes were jet black and piercing, and there was a smile upon its fat little face. In the “crib room” babies were sleep ing and cooing and crying and laughing and rolling upon the floor. It was a queer sight. To see the babies in the dining room is worth the walk to the nursery. There are three long, narrow tables. One is about twelve inches high from the floor, and the little chairs that surround it give the scene an old fashioned appearance. The other two are a little higher, but the “high chair” business has been abolished. Twenty babies at dinner! Well, it is worth seeing. It takes four nurses to pick up spoons. And the baby food. It is de licious, which is evidenced by the keen appetites of the babies. They are a friendly lot at the table, and are allowed considerable latitude. Johnny dips his spoon, for instance, into Eddie’s dish. As an appreciation of this Eddie lands a left hand full of bread and milk just under Johnny’s left eye. Spoons are thrown aside and a hair pull tug of war sets in, which is lovingly terminated by the gentlfe hands of the nurse. Such is happy baby life at the Bethesda nursery. —Cliicago Herald. Stealing from Actors. Actors often suffer from thieves while on the road. It is not their valuables— diamonds, 1 - caph and the like movables— which disappear as often as 4heir profes sional appurtenances, which have less monetary value, but whose loss often causes distressing inconvenience. Eugene O’Rourke sings a pretty and pleasing song, “Papa, Sweet Mamma and Me.” One day while the company was. staying in one of the interior Michigan towns the entire orchestra score disappeared, hav ing been appropriated by a local leader whose stock of fresh music had run low and who wanted to get a new number for his repertory cheaply. As there was not a second copy of the orchestra score and the song could not be sung without an accompaniment. ‘ ‘Papa, Sweet Mam ma and Me” had to retire until the work of orchestration could again be done. “I can tell of stranger things than that,” said an old time actor. “You have no idea of the rapacity of the tliieves who rob traveling professionals, nor of their persistency. I knew a leader who had a violin which lie prized very highly and watched zealously—even slept with it under his pillow'. Well, sir, a fellow up in Muskegon, I think it was, took a notion to have tliat violin. He followed the company from town to town, and after a week’s cat at a rat hole watching, he got an opportunity and sneaked it.

These theories. I subsequently found, harmonized very wonderfully with tliose entertained by a whole people as a religious belief. I refer to the Zunis. I began to ponder whether there was any system observed by these people in this matter, and I was led to observe charac teristics of soil and topography which ac companied the occurrence of a camp site among the Indians.” 7 After minutely describing his course of training - , this respect, and showing how, even in plowed fields, traces of former human occupation had been dis covered. Professor Cushing referred to the five or six years he had lived with the Zunis, and said that the narration of his experiences and discoveries had so in terested a New England lady named Mrs. Hemingway tliat she organized the Hem ingway Southwestern Ethnological ex pedition to carry out the line of bis ex plorations, ami tills led to the discovery of Los Muretos. “A number of like mounds,” con tinued the speaker, *-happened to meet my gaze, and hidden away under the mesquite forest I saw unmistakable signs of an ancient Indian village. Art re mains—fragments of pottery and other peculiarities precisely similar to those found in Zuni—were discovered. After several feet of excavation had been made the walls of a veritable city more tli;iq three mile's in length were laid bare. From deductions made from all the sur roundings I concluded that the newly discovered city was about twenty timers the size of the modern Zuni. The archi tecture may be characterized as com posed of terra cotta. “Thirty-three blocks of houses have already been excavated. The population of Zuni being 1,600 souls, that of Los Muertos may be estimated at that about eleven centuries ago, when it was aban doned. The, most interesting character istic which proved that the city had been overwhelmed by a succession of earth quakes was that the walls opened up, as it were, as though they were on hinges at the bottom. Similar peculiarities havu been observed during the recent earth quakes in Mexico. “On account of the suddenness of t.** j catastrophe the inhabitants had no time to remove a single article, and, there fore, all that could withstand the effe> t of time are scattered about as in the day* of their use, such as ancient jars, mills and axes. The latter bunches, with their handles burned off, lie on the ground as they fell. “A most interesting discover} 7 was made, ” said the lecturer, 1 ‘respecting the pottery in this ancient village. The water jars contained an apparently arti- tific-ial break in the continuity of an or namental band on the exterior and the food jars on the interior precisely similar to those of the Zunis, so that I am led to believe from this and other peculiarities that the inhabitants of Los Muertos were the ancestors of the Zunis. These bands, I found, while living with the latter people, were not caused accidently, and possessed a deep meaning. “I endeavored to learn the unmanly art of making pottery, for the women always make it, and while sitting among them molding some clay, I commenced to whistle softly. The women rose in hoiTor and exclaimed; ‘Child! child!’ I was amazed, but an old woman led me aside and said: ‘You must never whistle or sing or make any sound that would awake an echo in the canyon while mak ing pottery, for if you do the voice will go out while it is burning and the pot tery will crack.’ “All savages, I found, believed that everything that has motion, heat or sound of itself must have life. The Zunis have observed' that whenever a vessel breaks or becomes useless, in other words when it dies, it gives a loud twang, especially during the burning process, and they think a vessel fa imitative like the echo. Furthermore, they think when a vessel is put on the fire that it sings, and they be lieve that the vague existence they give to the vessels has something to do with the good qualities of the food taken from them. “They would not let me whistle be cause they believe the sound of my voice would enter the clay and break it when it was subjected to heat. These ideas give a more rational aspect to the superstitious feeling the savages bear towards their fetiches and idols. •-I supposed there were no Zuni ruins west of the center of Arizona, but here, much further in that direction than I could ever have imagined, I found this marvelous city of the dead. The Zunis consider their households as entities, and by a natural course of reasoning they have te-en led to l>elieve tliat their house hold articles should take their place among their gods. The Zunis’ conn j>- tion of the soul is very curious. It is i supposed that the priests of heredity have j also hv hereditv jiower over their own | souls, which enables them on great oe- | casinos to separate their souls from their bodies, and at death they d<> not require any ceremonial or sacrifice, like ordinary mortals.”—San Francisco Examiner.
