A woman in Boston proposes
that a state tax of $5 a head be
placed on bachelor maids. Such
a tax would be unjust unless it
were limited to those maids who
never had a chance to quit single
blessedness. Misfortune should
not be taxed. It is not surpris
ing that the Boston woman is
married. She is one of the large
class of persons who are always
willing for taxes to be imposed
upon anybody except themselves.
