Members crowded about the giant New York orator to extend their congratulations, and he was finally forced to retire to the cloak room, so confusing was the demonstration. Mr. Bryan’s Reply. When order was restored Mr. Bryan of | Nebraska, the champion of the income tax, took the floor. In the course of his speech he referred to a recent showing that 91 per cent of the United States own only about 20 per cent of the total wealth, while the remaining 9 per cent own 7i per cent of the total wealth. The people of the United States who have smail incomes pay on an aver. age more than 10 per cent of their incomes to support the federal government, while the rich pay a smaller per cent. Why should not tnis tax be addea in orger that the burdens may be partially equalized? It is objected that this tax will endanger th tariff bill. He was not afraid that any democratic member will refuse te relieve the common people of their heavy burdens, placed upon them by the McKinley bill, for jfear he will impose a light burden by + The House galleries were crowded yester- of day afternoon and the attendance of mem- bers increased when the hour arrived for Mr. Bourke Cockran of New York to de- liver his Speech against the income tax. ‘Apparently expectation ran high in the) audience and before the speech was con- cluded it was equally apparent, by the al- |most continued round of applause which had filled the hall, that expectation had been gratified. Mr. Cockran took o'clock. ‘As soon as he arose in his place the House grew quiet. Members swung their chairs around to listen and the galleries | grew attentive. For over an hour the great | Tammany orator poured forth his elo- quence against the income tax. He had hoped, he began, that the tariff bill would be allowed to come to 2 vote unvexed, un- disturbed, free from all danger of em- barrassing side issues. He had hoped that the democratic party would first redeem its pledges before it began to indulge the vagaries of its members. !

Moore’s Shoe Palac 810 7th St. N.W. was accorded an ovation rivaling that which had just marked the close of Mr. Cockran’s attack on the income tax. The advocates of the tax crowded about the Nebraska member, and for several minutes a long line of members filed up to shake his hand, while the galleries joined in the repeated rounds of applause coming from the members. ‘The Session Last Evening. ‘The session of the House last night was uneventful and was marked by no scenes or incidents of interest. The most conspicuous feature of the debate, probably, was the cp- position to the income tax from two prom- inent democrats, Mr. Coombs and Mr. Hendrix of New York. Mr. Coombs said he would consider the measure as the perfected scheme of the committee upon the subject of revenue. As such it was deficient. One of ‘three things was demonstrated by the bill as it was before the House—the govern: ment was too poor to maintain itself, the committee on ways and means was incom- petent to deal with the subject, or they had allowed visionary theorists to control their actions. He appealed to the committee to withdraw the bill and fevise it, so as to meet the necessities of the government, now growing so dire and imminent. Referring to the income tax, Mr. Coombs said he spoke as one of the older merchants of New York familiar with its operations. An income tax was especially to be de- plored, Mr. Coombs said, because it put the governrfent at odds with its subjects and always made the citizen the defendant. The people of the United States, he humorously observed, are a high mettled, nervous class, and need a kind hand and light harness, no less than a firm one, to guide them. In | conclusion he sa! An Odto Form of Tax. “It is the most odious form of taxation that can be devised for a free people. It is strictly class legislation, for it proposes to | exempt incomes below a certain amount. ; We have denounced the class legislation of | the McKinley bill, yet we are asked to re- place it by a worse form of class legislation. It cannot be enforced without offensive in- quisitorial methods. “A law that cannot be enforced demoral | izes and debases the people. Those who de- | mand its enactment are they who by its provisions are exempted from paying it. 4 ee ‘ sewed Button | wit made a party to a bunco traitor to its prof It its pring It is unworthy It plunges headlong toward a will hurl it from power grace.

Bishop Wigger of the Newark @locése has been upheld by the pope in his opposi- tion to the plan of the late Rev. Patrick Corrigan to establish the so-called Fari- bault school system in Hoboken. The announcement of the decision sacred congregation was given by A. Wallace, chancellor of the Ni cese, who prepared the translation letter from Rome, addressed to Wigger, and signed by Cardinal ski, as follows: “I have received your report of 19 in reference to the transfer parochial school of Hoboken. curately examined the reasons you deemed it well not to fue ‘| 3 i ise i the use of the government school, I found that you have acted with zeal, under these circumstances, cording to the right bishop to watch over the people confided to “I have wished, therefore, in this letter of the approval congregation of that above mentioned prohibition.” The upholding of Bishop Wigger Position in question is portant, since the decision as applying not only to the Hoboken ter, but to other similar cases throughout the country. ue ae { ‘Those who opposed this proposition were to be subjected to a new test of loyalty. ‘While willing to vote for the tariff bill, we are now asked at the behest of a party caucus to vote for a special tax on 85,000 out of 67,000,000 of people. When a propo- sition goes further than mere taxation and ts deliberately designed to tax a clas: those who believe in equality before the law must array themselves against it. “It ‘strikes at the fundamental principles of democracy,” said he, “at the very root of the government; it is the entering wedge in the shape of retaliatory legislation in this country. What reason is assigned for bringing forward such a proposition? Why should a homnogeneous, harmonious militant party be plunged into discord by this prop- osition? It is brought in upon the assump- tion that the Wilson bill will produce a deficit; upon the assumption that the ex- isting conditions of business, an unpar- alleled period of stagnation in our history, will continue. I have said before and I say now that if I believed the Wilson bill would produce a deficit in the revenues it would not receive my support. The whole experience of the human race demonstrates that the idea that the reductions carried by this bill will produce a deficit is un- founded; false in theory and a libel on the democratic party.” He proceeded to develop this idea as he ‘means of an income tax upon those who are amply able to bear it. He protested against the perversion of language whi we have witnessed in this chamber. “The: tell us,” he said, “that those who mak: {the load heaviest upon those least able to | bear it are distributing the burdens of the government with impartial hand, but that those who insist that each citizen should pay in proportion to his wealth are blinded | by prejudice against t rich; they cail that man a statesman whose ear is tuned | to catch the slightest pulsations of a pocket book, 2nd denounce as a demagogue the man who dares to listen to the heart beat i of the New York 400, said the other day that the income tax, if adopted, woull compel many of the ‘best people ‘of New York to live abroad, where living is cheap- er. But whither will they fly? England sia as high as 4 per cent, Switzerland as cent and Austria as high as 20 per cent. But who will than support the government? Who will choose life under a monarchy, even with- out an income tax, than life in a republic with a 2 per cent tax? If such there be, let them depart.
