THE INCOME TAX.
The action of the House of Representatives
yesterday in refusing to abolish the income
tax will create ranch dissatisfaction and in
dignation in all parts of th country, except
perhaps in a few of the extreme Western or
Southern States, where not one man out of
ten thousand has sufficient income to make
him liable to the tax. The tax was continned
mainly by the votes of the Western and
Southern members, whose constituents are
little affected by it, and who are anxious to
throw as much as possible the burden of sup
porting the Government on other shoulders
than their own. The disposition made of the
tax by the Hotise was to decrease it from five
to three per cent., and to increase the exemp
tion from one thousand to two thousand dol
lars. This will of ' course relieve many from
the payment of "the tax who are now
liable to it, but it is not
at all what is wanted. As has
been explained again and again, it is not
the amount of the tax that is objected to
so much as its inquisitorial character. It is
an unjust imposition that men should be
compelled to disclose their most private busi
ness affairs, except under the pressure of a
most urgent necessity. Such a necessity
did exist when the income tax was first im
posed, and knowing this, it was submitted to
patiently, especially as a definite limit was
placed upon it by Congress. The tax is no
longer a necessity, and its objectionable fea
tures have been more and more apparent with
each year of its existence, until the feeling
against it is so strong that it is remarkable
any member of Congress should have the
temerity to vote for its continuance, if he
hopes to retain his seat. We hope sincerely
that the Senate will understand the temper of
the people on this subject better than the
House of Representatives seems to do, and
will consent to its total abolition without any
reservation whatever.
CONTESTED ELECTION EXPENSES.
The practice of contesting elections to the
National House of Representatives has of
late years grown to be an evil of the first
magnitude, and some measures are impera
tively needed to prevent unsuccessful candi
dates drawing thousands of dollars from the
treasury at every session of Congress as they
do now. Under the very loose way in which
matters are managed at present, contesting
elections has become a profitable business,
by which impudent and unscrupulous poli
ticians are able to pocket large sums to which
they have not the shadow of a claim. Most
of the contestants who have appeared before
the House lately have been able to pre
sent no arguments in support of their
pretensions that were worthy of a mo
ment's consideration, and yet the House
has not only wasted its time in hearing them,
but it has paid them handsomely for dancing
attendance in the committee-room and for
buttonholing members in the lobby. On
Thursday the House adopted a resolution to
pay to Caleb S. Hunt $2000, to J. II. Sypher
' $4000, to Louis S. Martin $4000, to George
"W. McCrane $3000, to Frank Morrey $3000,
and to Michael Ryan $3500, for time spent
and expenses incurred in the prosecution of
their respective claims to seats in the House
from the State of Louisiana.
As an offset to this a bill was introduced
by Mr. Faine, of Wisconsin, te regulate the
compensation in the case of contested elec
tions. This provides that no money shall
be paid in a contested election case to either
the sitting member or the contestant until
the case is determined, when the mileage and
compensation shall be paid only to the per
son to whom the seat shall finally be
awarded. The person against whom
the decision is made is to receive only the
amount actually and necessarily expended in
defending his right. The bill gave rise to an
animated debate, in whioh the facts were
elicited that the amount paid during twelve
years up to the beginning of this Congress to
men whom the House had decided to have no
just claims was $173,o!).", and to that sum
the present Congress has added $."0,000.
During the twelve years above mentioned
there were sixty-five contested elections in
the House, and only sixty-three in all the
years before from the foundation of the Gov
ernment. There had been thirty more in
the present Congress, making ninety-five
contests in fourteen years.
These facts and figures are sufficient to
show how great the evil has beeoine, and in
view of the fact that a large majority of the
contestants had no reasonable claims, and dis
puted the election of their opponents out of
sheer impudence and knavery, the best plan
to put a stop to the whole business would be
to refuse any compensation whatever to those
who are unsuccessful in convincing the House
of their right to seats. It may be objected
to this that it would, in the mnjority of
instances, prevent persons who honestly
thought they were defrauded of their elec
tions from prosecuting their claims; but the
case is one that clearly calls for a decisive
remedy, and, in view of the few honest con.
testants that have appeared before the House,
it is better to run the risk of doing a pos
Bible injury than to submit any longer to
the . present scandalous imposition. To
pay the expenses of an nnstigeessfal
contestant is an aot of mere generosity on the
part of Congress, and Congress has no right
t to be generous with the publio money; and
neither in law cqx equity ought the pablie
treasury to be made chargeable with the ex
penses of men who may choose to assume
that they are elected te office. The bill
offered by Mr. Paine is a move in the right
direction, but it does not go far enough. It
is better than nothing, however, and if some
plan of gre iter merit is not proposed, we
hope that it will be adopted as a partial check,
at least, on the operations of men like the
Louisiana carpet-baggers who bagged the
neat sum of $10,500 by the vote of the House
on Thursday.
President Grant yesterday nominated
Wayne McVeigh, Esq., of Chester, to the
Senate for the mission to Constantinople, to
take the place of Hon. E. Joy Morrris, of this
city. We think that there is eminent pro
priety in the appointment of Mr. McVeigh.
He1 is the son-in-law of Senator Cameron,
and cannot get office from the people of his
county, district, or State. His last effort was
less than two years ago, when, with all the
appliances Cameron could command to aid
him, he was beaten only five to one in
the convention. Being a son-in-law
of Cameron, he must of course
have office; and as he can't get
it from the people, he must get it from Grant.
At first the Cabinet was selected, and it was
announced by Cameron that MoVeigh would
soon succeed Attorney-General Hoar, but
rather than miss., a second-class mission is
now accepted. The appointment will cost
the Republican party of Chester county a re
duction in its majority of five hundred or so,
and many thousands in the State; but no
matter, Cameron and his family must be pro
vided for. We beg to remind President
Grant in time that Cameron has another son-in-law
who will soon be in the political
hospital. Hon. It. J. Haldeman, Demo
cratic member of Congress from the
Cumberland, York and Perry district, was
not a member of the Cameron family ten
years ago, and was therefore elected to Con
gress. A few weeks ago he became the
brother-in-law of Mr. McVeigh and the son-in-law
of Mr. Cameron, and he is now just
about as likely to be re-elected to Congress as
he is to journey by railway to the moon. On
the fourth of March next he will be out of
employment, and not wanted by his
people for any publio station. We there
fore put in a word for him with
the President in time, so that a pleasant
place may be ready for him when his con
stituents discord him. True, he is a sort of
a Democrat, but he will soon take on all of
Cameron's facility in adapting his principles
to suit the powers that be. Don Cameron
can now take the next vacancy in the Cabinet,
and then things will be altogether lovely.
Pennsylvania may give 50,000 Democratic
majority, but who cares for elections?
By the conitKsroNDENCE published in an
other column, it will bo seen that a number
of prominent citizens of Germantown have
urged William liotch Wister, Esq., to accept
the Republican nomination for Representa
tive from the Fifth Congressional district, and
that Mr. Wister has consented to allow his
name to be used. Mr. Wister is a gentleman
of well-known ability and integrity of char
acter, and in event of his receiving the nomi
nation, he will be entitled to the hearty sup
port of the citizens of the Fifth Congressional
district, and will doubtless represent their
interests in an efficient manner in the House
of Representatives if he is elected.
