Shall an Unconstitutional Tax be Con+ tinned t ‘The last proposition in Congress respect- ing the income tax is that of Senator Surr- MAN. He designs that the tax shall be con- tinued, but reduced. Instead of five per cent. as at present, his plan isto make it three per cent. The poople will object to this for two ren- sons. In the first place, it is a violation of public faith, When the income tax was originally levied, amid the extremest pres. sare of the war, Congress solemnly pledged the faith of tho Government that it should cease with 1870. That is as binding a prom- ise as that on the face of the Government bonds. It is a contract with the people, and cannot be repudiated without dishonor, Another vital objection to this tax is that it is unconstitutional, It is @ dircet tax, and the Constitution provides that direct taxes shall not be laid “unless in proportion to the census.” We are aware that the pre tence is set up that it is an excise tax, like iat on carriages, watches, or billiard tables ; but this pretence will not bear examination, A taxon incomes takes from the taxpayer directly every year a certain proportion of his property. Carriages, or watches, or bil- liard tables he need not keep unless he ehooses; but when the tax-gatherer lays hands on a man’s income, he lays hands directly on his property. This gives to the Income tax the character of a direct tax, sueh ap cannot rightfully be laid except in propor- tion to the census, or collected except from the States, as was the tax imposed by Congress In the first year of the rebellion. If the ruling party in Congress are wise, they will let the income tax die out at the appointed time. They will keep the promise not to exact it after the year 1870. They will not set tho example of repudiating a public obligation. They will not attempt to per- Detuate an unconstitutional imposition, the most hateful to the people of all forms of taxation that we have ever had to endure. Clear the Track! Tt is a duty incumbent on us—and wo always discharge it with alacrity—to give good counsel to both political parties, Every- body knows they need it, and our rts in this line ought to meet with the constant sympathy of every patriot. Our readers know that we entertain o sincere admiration for our two ven- erablo coutemporaries of the Republican persuasion, the philosopher of the Zridune and the poet of the Post. But there has come to bea lack of breadth and variety in the treatment of national topics in these two papers, which wo can only regard with sen. timents of regret, We so fully appreciate the excellont motives that actuate them that we desire to temper our criticism with the utmost forbearance; but the truth remains that it is the tendency of daily publications, og it is their greatest weakness, to more and more reflect, with the lapse of time, the pe- culiarities of their conductors, But this natural egotism is not luteresting, Nothing tires like monotony—monotony of idea, monotony of view, of style, of expression, This isequally true even though it be ofa high type. Breadth, variety, multiform knowledge, manifold power of thought, are indispensa- Dleina leading newspaper. This is so pal- pable that nobody will controvert it; and it is not by any means dificult of realization. But such a result can only he effectually aecom- plished by holding the glovfcation of the individual in subordination to the cause; by the unfolding of ideas through the dili- gent industry of varied talent. It cannot be aehieved by the one-sided expositions of a single mind. A convenient and cor te ilustration of vur theme is furnished by the sussions of the two newspapers to which we haye re- ferred on the tariff, Those two journals are the antipodes of one another on this question, Neither seems competent to rise toa full comprehension of the subject. Each con- tents itself with its own chronic squint on thistoplc, the game as they have severally levelled at it during the last half century. And the result is tedious monotony and the- orizing nonsense. Ever since our war loaded upon the nation its mountain of debt, the question of a tariff on imports has been sim- ply a question of details, The application of the doctrines of free trade, or any such approx imation to them as was possible of old when our national expenditures were light, is now out of the question, A if imposed by free traders themselves, in tho pres. ent condition of the national indebt- ment, must necessarily be of a highly protective characte Tt takes an aver age duty of about forty per cent. on three hundred millions of imports to meet the absolute necessities of the Government, alded by the full strength of our internal revenue sytem. Under thege circumstances what folly it is to insist on the strict ap- plication of dogmatic views and abstract principles to the case, ‘There being a diver. aity of opinion among men otherwiso agree- ing on leading principles of administration, #8 in the office of comprehensive journalism fo come to the consideration of this subject fin a conciliatory temper, and not in a spirit of truculent dogmatism, It being extremely plain that any schedule of duties proposed by well-informed and well-meaning men can- not vary materially from one framed by @ judicious free trader or a judicious pro- tectionist, why should the world of legisla- tion and journalism be convulsed over dif. ferences of thissort? In adjusting the details of a tariff whose average must reach as high as forty per cent. on the gross imports in order to give sufficient revenue, there is nothing but the coarse selfishness of special interests to be guarded against ; and this can be effected without any break- ing of heads or violent personal attacks arising from heated partisanship. It ie to descend to be the very shepherd's dog of journalism, to pursue members of Congress deliberating on this subject with all the detail of calling them by name and undertaking to specify with scandalous mi- nutencss the precise personal, pecuniary, and social influences alleged to actuate their opin- ions and their votes, as has been done by one of the ancient journals in question. This same kind of canine meanness is often, wo may oven eny daily, manifested by its equally eminent contemporary in nosing the move- ments of individual legislators, in snapping at this one for going too fast, and biting the heels of that one for being too slow, in sug- gesting duties neglected or overdone, in pointing out new paths, advising, pushing, crowding, threatening, presuming to furnish exclusive intelligenco, information, instruc tion, and direction to a body of two or throe hundred gentlemen chosen especially for the work they are about. However, the day of predominant parti. san newspapers is over. This is the age of the Independent Press, The Progressive Democracy were the first to perceive this trath, ‘They keep no party organ, because they know they can find sounder information and better guidance in Tuk Sux. The Republi- cans are also coming to understand this, and their partisan journals will have to change their character or go out of sight. The Great Journal of the age cannot of course represent the policy of any existing party exclusively. Its office is to seize upon what is vital, what is best, in all parties, and to enrich its creed by original dis- coveries of political trath. It must be com- prehensivo, printing all the news so that it can be read and understood, hospitable to new ideas, free from the shackles of useless theories, bold, honest, speaking the truth, sounding the trumpet of reform, and fighting the battles of the people. predate Using the Army to Stop Gold-Mining. Among American gold-miners, from Frazer River to San Diego, there is @ fixed belief that the portion of the continent richest in gold, and most accessible to the pick, the pan, and the arastra, is the Wind River moun- tains, ‘They have been prospected ; and some of the adventurous men who took their lives there with their outfits survived the peril, came out with their hair, and at innu- merable camp fires have told the tale which has kindled{a fever of desire and of curiosity wherever in the United States the color of gold is seen, These mountains flank a por- tion of the hunting grounds of the Sioux and Cheyennes, They contain no game on which the Indians subsist. They are merely the park walls of these red gentlemen's hunting parks, Some white men in Wyo- ming, being poor but industrious, propose to get to the top of these walls and pick for gold. Brevet Major-Gen. C, C. AvGUR says they shan’t doit. He has written to Goy. CamPbect of Wyoming Territory that he has received orders “to iaform the parties con- cerned that the Government will not permit its treaty obligations with the Indians to be violated, and to advise them to abandon their purpose, and in any event to see that this expedition does not go.” A treaty between the people of the United States and a tribe of Plain Indians which gives to the latter the right to exclude American citizens from the gold inthe Rocky Mountains cannot, in the nature of things, have any sanction among a mining popula. tion. Tho reasonableness of a treaty with buffalo-eating Indians, fencing in for their exclusive occupation by meridians of longi- tuded and parallels of latitude a portion of the buffulo range, would be understood by all men, and the treaty would be observed Ly most. But the “treaty obligations” which Gen. Avoun speaks of, would seem to indi. cate acompact by our Government with a band of savages that the gold and silver in the Wind River mountains shall not be taken out for the commerce of the world. It is a compact that a considerable section of the United States shall remain unexplored and unknown toits Government and its people. It isa compact that the Wind River chain shall exist as an obstruction to American travel and commerce, For what is this com- pact made? It is made to enable a tribe of Indians to keep a preserve of wild game unscared by white men, It is made to enable the males of a race which abhors agriculture, and would sooner starve than plough and hoe, to gorge on buffalo-hump and elk-rib; to sleep, to dance, to paint their faces; to flutter the scalps of white women and men taken on the emigrant trails; to brag of the horses they have stolen, and the enemics they have surprised in sleep, or slain in un- equal battle; to overwork and beat their women; and again to gorge, and again to sleep. The common law makes contracts void for repugnance, Bear in mind that the Sioux and Cheyennes are Plain Indians, as distinguished from Thickwood Indians. They never walk. They always ride. They never climb a mountain save to look off upon a plain {for game or for a foe. In winter only they camp among the foothills for shelter from the winds, ‘Their lives are passed on grass, ‘They live on the flanks of the columns of buffaloes in their ranges from the Arkansas to the Sarkatchewan, Grant- ing fora moment that they have a right to live this life against the right of civilization to permanently occupy the soil, are the Wind River mountains eesential to that mode of life? Eight hundred miners in Cheyenne sny they are not essential, and they are going to march for those mountains with mining outfits and seven hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition per man. They do not mean to interfere with the Indians’ hunting parks, but only to look for gold in the moun talns, where the Indians do not go. It would not surprise us to see Gen. GRANT make the mistake of using soldiers to stop these people, If it were possible to teach him political truth. we would gay to bim that that THE SUN, TUESDAY. mistake belongs to those which defeat politi- eal aspirations add kill candidates in nom- inating conventions, Let the Government keep the engagements of its treaties; let it protect the hunting grounds of the Indians; but let the gold and silver of the mountains be got out, ne Judicious Courage. It ia reported from Washington that the House Committee on Foreign Affairs have agreed to call upon the Administration to send additional vessels to Venezuela, to de- mand the payment of $250,000 awarded to American citizens by a mixed commission in 1866. No doubt the Administration will promptly respond to the call, and, just as it sent a fleet to Hayti to intimidate that poor little republic, will send another to Venezuela to bully the Venezuelan. ‘The fact is that our President does not get the credit for wisdom which he deserves. He is courageous, but his courage is judicious, He takes patiently kicks and insults from Spain, because if he resented them there might be a small epark of trouble, and pos sibly of war. But let him be assured of per- fect immunity from danger, and he isas bold as lion. Spain has a navy, while Hayti and Venezuela have none, Hence the dif. ference in their treatment. A Government which always acts in this judicious manner, may be relied on to keep the country safe from material harm. As to preserving its reputation, that is another thing. ——————— The rates at which the Ring have com: pensated the eervices of Democratic members of the Legislature in passing the Tween charter have varied greatly without perceptible reason, For a city Democrat the price has been $10,000; for Brooklyn Democrat, $7,000; for a coun- try Democrat, $5,000, Why should this be thus? Is nota vote a vote? The principle of demo- cratic equality ought not to be violated except in cases of extreme necessity. pemnannnne San The Stock Exchange were in animated Aiscussion for two hours on Saturday relative to the adoption of a resolution authorizing the Gov- erning Committee to procure from tho Legisla- ture @ charter which, if obtained as proposed, will practically insure the stock brokers from all risks from the outside public, It gives to their Arbitration Committee all the powers of a court of justice, outhorizes the Board to form itself into 6 life insurance society, abrogates the usury laws a8 far as regards the transactions of members of the Stock Exchange, and in a word places them beyond all law and superior to all authority but their own.
