The entire subject is one calling for reasonable congressional action. The question of rebates and ex- emptions has been made a study by A congressional committee, of which Senator Platt, of Connecticut, is chairman, and with the data relating to the experience of foreign countries that have beea collected, the Ways and Means Committee, should be in a position to formulate a law that would remove the burden now im- posed on legitimate business ente prise, while still securing for the government the revenue that it needs by heavy taxes upon alcohol consum- ed as a beverage. WRITTEN AT RANDOM. The city court room down at Brooklyn is not so imposing as the one here, but to all intents and pur- poses itis just as good. It is a lit- tle frame structure, one story, one ‘This is a sample, as de- ‘of how jus- the river. tailed by an old citizen, tive is dealt out.

The particulars are then related, un- der oath, if denial be entered, and judgment is rendered. ‘fine you $1 and costs for fight- ing,’*he says to one of the prisoners, ‘and you, for being ina fight,’ to the other. The law is thus vindi- cated, and justice smiles compla- cently as she walks off satisfied. The police have but one consola- tion over the termination of the Walter Corbett case, which was dis- missed by Judge Sunders yesterday This consolation is that one police- man isa dirk knife and the other is a pistol ahead. Corbett was arrest- ed with a dirk knife in his over sofa near where his coat was picked In arranging for new sources of ways and means com- mittee in congress have uadoubtedly to take into account the internal rev- enue as well as the tariff laws, and under such circumstances it is incum- bent upou the committee to consider | whether or not the present method of taxing alcohol should not be revised Commereial—that is, high test—aleo- hol has been selliag lately at the dis- tilleries, before the duty has been paid, and without charge for the packages, at the rate of about 10 cents a gallon, The tax upon this is $2.07 a gallon, so that the impost is equivalent toa tax burden of more than 2,000 per cent, "There is probably no tax imposed by the United States, whether in cus- toms or internal reyenue, that begins to compare with this in extraordina-| ry proportions, — tis absurd on the face of it that alcohol used in, say the manufacture of varnish or in the] poses. preparation of medicine, should be} It is, more than this, made to cost by a tax $2.17 a gal-|the government should g Jon, when without the tax the price| domestic manufacturers, as it does would be 10 cents a gallon, The | not at the present time, the right to only reason (hat can be advanced for | receive a rebate on the alcohol used this impost is that, as a beverage, « ur! in manufacturing goods intended for own government and all of the civil- export, If an American manufactu- which can be easily made to pay an enormous tax But alchohol as a basis for varnish does not call for a tax any more than turpentine would when similarly ployed, and the only reason ur against exemption in these respects that if discriminations were made it might be dificult’ for the govern- ment to prevent the practice of fraud; that is, persons would obtain exemptions from the tax and would then use the alchohol thus fre beverage instead of in the t arts, Its asserted, and experience proves the assertion to have a good basis to rest upon, that in other ntries of the world it is impossible to make this division; to impose a considerable tax upon al- chohol which is used as a beverag and yet to make a remission of ta alchohol is revenue, the found in those cases where the used for other than drinking pur- urgel that nt to our room, and adorns the street fronting | i “What are] ten-| 3 pocket and a pistol was found on al. sual manner.
