Great Question.
The Philadelphia Prcat makes sure of
r a aapply of material for its celumns: for
leas, rarhar. than n century ahead. In
ft iiMilAVln tn nrlnt tlin nnlnlnna of the
ll fi"citiienB of this commonwealth upon tbe
y lira quesuuns ui mu jv miiu
taxation ana tue ngui way ie gciKumt
' reads. One would think that oue of
tuwe questions would aatUfy any news
paper's present need for news, and that
they are each big enough te deserve
separate handling. There Is, however,
a clear economy in combining in one
lutervlew the search for information
upon every subject, but in editing the
information Itmlght be profitably served
' in separate dishes.
We hope our contemporary will per
severe in its purpose until it has recorded
the opinion of every man In the state
upon the matter of taxation and reads.
Whether the enlightenment of the sub
ject will be equal te the elTert made may
perhaps be questionable ; but it will be
interesting to.see what all the peep'.o
have te say; and it may be that in the
great multltude of the council true Rela
tion may be found of the serious ulfli
culty of making taxation easy and
equal, and making the reads geed.
The great treuble about taxation
always Is te make it bear equally ; and
no plan has yet been found that will be
as Just in practice as iu theory. It is
'easy enough te say that real estate taxa
tion may be equally imposcdjbecausereal
estate is a visible thing capable of elose
valuation ; but the fact that its valuation
is made by many assessors, in many
places and of many different ideas,
always has made and alwayswlll make
the valuation uneven.
We wonder wherefore then it will net
be wise for the state te give up the Idea
of getting an exact tax upon property
according te IU value and te determine
te raise all taxation from the privileges
it grants. This Is iu a manner a Penn
sylvania Idea and practice new. The
state does net tax realty and gets its
great revenue from the corporate privi
leges it has grautcd. Be tee new the
'counties and cities get a large revenue
'from the liquor licenses. Why may net
'this practice be extended se as te pro pre
vlde at least; all the money needed for
state and county purposes, Including the
.making of geed reads, from the taxation
of privileges?
This is an eminently fair taxation, If
net an equal one. These who pay the
taxes directly may be but a small por
tion of the community, but they make
their money by the privilege they buy
and they collect it iu their turns from
the community they seive. Ne ene Is
likely te object strenuously te the col
lection of taxes iu this form. Ne one
growls very greatly at corporation
taxation nnd high liquor licenses.
The question will be whether
these privilege taxes can be te
increased and multiplied as te ralse the
money needed for all state and county
purposes. We believe they can. It is at
least amattcr for inquiry. Ke great a state
with se great interests and industries Is
net likely te lack applicants for busi
ness privileges who will be ready te pay
roundly te get them. Our corporation
taxes can be increased inanyfeld with
out hurting the corporations. The
liquor licenses can be tripled without
hurting anybody or thing. The United
States want te drop the liquor uud to
bacco taxes, and de net dolt only bo be bo
be3use they are such Ideally lovely
subjects of taxation. Let them pass
them ever te the states.
And perhaps even cities can get along
without direct taxatieu. There are
many valuable privileges within their
power te grant which cau be made great
revenue producers. These who ask
councils for anything should be made
te pay for it. When they wauttoeecupy
the streets with electric wires, car rails,
gas and steam pipes, poles, wires and
ether incumbrances, with which they
propose te make money by serving the
people with theirgoeds, why should they
net be charged roundly for the privilege ?
Of course they will get It back, If their
stuff la worth anything, In the prlce
ihey charge tbe people for It. Hut isuet
that a geed, easy aud fair mode of taxa
tion, and one as likely te bear evenly us
any ether? It may perhaps in the first
instance be mere of a taxation upon er er
,sens than property. But all taxation In
the end gets nreuud te perseual taxa
tion. The property ewuer collects it
from the tenant in the rent he charges
him ; and everywhere aud always taxa taxa
teou falls ultimately upon the consumer.
If we can find a way te collect the money
needed for the state comfortably, aud
T16 m net te disturb our feelings
and greatly outrage our sense of Justice,
just as the United Etates does by its
customs and internal revenue collections
we will be as haunv as we pm im
in this tax-ridden world. Te Ixj
sure, people howl about the in
justice of the tariff; but they are
politicians, hew Hug te keep their lungs
in order aud their party li trim. The
citizen generally Is net troubled by any
imposition ue reels from the tariff". He
way believe theoretically that it is an
Imposition and his political sense may
be outraged by the luck of uniformity,
but there is net a man who dee.4 net
minK mat his a lovely wav of rnlWt.
leg the government moneys, or who
would be willing te have the theoreti
cally correct system of direct taxation
substituted for the theoretically bad sys
tem of oufctems collection.
As te read making, that clearly is a
proper Mate work, te be cared for by
state officers, puld for by state moneys
and enjoyed by stule people.
Senater Brlce nud Sudden Wealth.
Several stories, widely diflerlng but
w
tvHy circumstantial and positive,
rjrwess te explain hew Senater Brice
, suddenly became wealthy. There is
:mere Internum this than there would
- lie In iu cxnimi'illnii nr i.r... i. i
, j w. ntn uv m-cuum
,i ' seuater. because miu-.n-ii.,v.i ..n .i,
, verkl pursues wealth first auddlstiuc-
.pJleB aeceud. The millionaire can be Just
M distinguished as he pleases in certain
'! ud the limits te the power of
wealth are only fully realized by the
wealthy. Net long age Urlce was A peer
unknown attorney j new he Is worth a
half dozen millions, a United Btatcs
senator, and ene of the most prominent
fiiriireslu the country. Of course, every
body wants te knew Jusl bow it hap
pened, and iu news, s In everything
else, the demand creates the supply, but
circumstances fix the quality. The sto
ries of the sudden arrival of the wealth
of Brlce till agree that it came by stock
speculation for another man, who gen
ereusly snared nun tne peer young ni
terney, who had served as the medium
of his geed luck.
According te ene tnle young Brlce
telegraphed te the man for whom he was
speculating asking instructions In an
emergency. The telegraph ojcrater sent
him the wrong message in some quite
mysterious way and tbe result was vast
profit by mistake. Anether and mere
prebable story represents the lucky
Brlce as making a careful study of the
stocks in which his employer was in
terested nnd then deliberately disobey
ing orders and making a fortune. The
fascination of tbce stories is llke that of
the childhood talcs of magic nnd en
chantment by which the worthy here
finds vast hidden treasures aud many
troubles and flually gets rid of the latter
aud lives happily. With magical rapid
ity a man is rich and famous, and that
fact quite eclipses the first essential of
the nursery tale nnd the newspaper
yarn the pcisenal worth of the man
himself". If Mr. Urlce bad net this per
sonal value of mind and character he
would neverhavc been found by friendly
fortune working hard as a trusted agent
en Wnll street. The record of ids suc
cess will tempt many who lack hli qual
ities te try te strike ids luck In stork
speculation, but they might n well buy
n ticket In the Louisiana lottery. There
is fortunately an eluslve character about
sudden wealth that discourages Its pur
suit or we would all be speculators. The
calm observer notes that it Is always
coupled with sudden poverty, nnd the
stories of Mr. Brlce fall te tell who get
peer when he get rich.

pledgcs glven by tlie Republican party and
tlie president that civil servlcu reform
should be supported. Tlie circular geos en
te slate Hint there is Uttnser that In splte of
tbose profusiens the party in power will do de
feat the aim of tlie law by neglectlng te pro
viso the funds needed by the civil sorvlce
commission. "The speilsman finds it
much mero ocenomlcal te pay his honch hench
mcuand healers out of the public treasury,
by the abuse of ' patronage,' than te pay
them out of his own pocket. Although
mero than tlircofenrt!is of tlie public
efflcei are stilt at his disposal, he grudges
tbe less of the one-fonrtli, and yearns te
recover It. He (loes net dare te work
epenly for the repeal of the law, for this he
knows the poeplo would net forglve, but
lie proposes te attain the same eud by re
ducing or ienising the nppropilatleiiH
uocessary for Its execution, l'revlded he
accompli fell ei the end of qimrtwrlng his
followers en the public, he cares nothing
for tlie brand of f.ilBO pretences self-alllxed
by his disregard of the pledges en which
he and his party sought and obtalned
votes." Souater Parwcll, of Illinois, 1

destruction because, he 8-iys, ' Woean de
Just as well by refusing te appropriate the
funds en which it depends. It was beaten
that way before, and we are going te de our
host te heat it that way ence mero." The
circular cominents en the dishonesty of
thus repudiating the party platform and tlm
messages of President Harrison which lmve
professed te favor civil sorvlce reform,
IUi.timeiic Is bragging of tlie Inerease of
Its experts, and jealous Philadelphia may
wake up that belt line project and try te
scramble back te lier old commercial rank.

"Any candldate for govemor of Penn
sylvania w he may be nominated by .Senater
Quay or hli adherents will jneet with
organized Independent Republican oppo
sition." Wharten'Tlarkerput forth this significant
ussortlen a couple of days age iu discuss
ing the gubernatorial 'situation, but he
declined te speak In explanation of his
nrephecv, kiylng: "It Is net tlme yet."
While Mr. Barker would net speak any
further en this topic his recent ulteraneeN
through the medium of the Amerimn, and
the threats of a Itepublican belt which have
been attributed te ox-Senater J. V. I.ee, of
Venango county, clearly indicate the im
port or Mr. Barker's prediction.
One week age Mr. Barker said iu the
American "Te the ordinary observer of
jkiIHIcs It might up near that the procets
of nominating and electing the governor
was heveral months distant. On the con
trary, a part of the duli'gite te tlie It.)
publican conventlon of ls'JO hawwilreadv
been elected, and they ure geuerally, if
net entirely, In tlie control or .Mr. Quay
te be used for tlie nomination of his men.
Of course, the procedure by which
the state convention is partly chosen a
yrar ahead et time Is a breach iu uub uub
stnnce of tbe reform iiriaugcment
adopted Iu 1SS.', and Intended te prevent
the repetition of such hcaudals as had
brought the party te the vorge of completo
disruption. It wan the understanding of
tlie jurty then that the ubuse should ccasn
ofc-beoslng the delegates u year lnmlvniice
under circumstances which only the poli
tical manipulators had a clue te, and where
the issues were net presentcd te the people.
But it Is u convenient udlunct of the 'spoils'
system, and helps te make It mero easy
for Mr. Quay te name the gev orner of the
Htute, and reform has had a set-back In
Pennsylvania slnce Mr. Harrison entered
the White Heuse, se that the geed resolu
tions or the party In 18S and ls?3 aie
cheaply held new by the dominant
leaders. "
A gentleman, who was closely Identified
with the Republican belt against General
Heaver iu lbS.' said yosterduy: "Bight
years age General Beaver was arbitrarily
presented us a candidate for gev orner by
beuater Cameren, and the result was the
nomination of. lehn Stewart by the inde
pendent element iu the Itepublican party,
which rese up against the cut-and-drled
method of naming candidates. The cir
cumstances new are substantially the
same, and If Senater Quay insists ui en ar
bitrarily cheesing a m.iu te reeclve the
hunnert of tlie nail v thorn will lm iw.n
hist as surelv ns thorn una in m. i
makes no dilierence who the man may be
it in the principle of tlie thing. The Repub
lican party in Pennsylvania will net sub
ui t te be dictated te by .Senater Quay in
this matter.
"AlthouBhwedld net elect eight years
age we did succeed in defeating Senater
Cameren's man by turning the Independ
ent vete ever te tlie Democratic candidate
and In this way we elected Uovernor Pat Pat
tlsen. The spirit of eight j ears age is net
dead, and Senater Quay may sie something
that will surprise him. It is tee early vet
te tell definitely what will be done, anil the
ceurse or tlie Independent Republicans
depeuds very largely upon what action the
Dumeciats uiay take. If the Democrats
name a man ler whom we cau vete we
tWIturn In for hliu, and with the Inde
pendent Republican vote the Democratic
jurty could easily carry the state this
year."
SLAUGHTER IN IUO'8) STREETS.
Shetted Ht Ouns Fired Inte Friends of
the Kuiplr ami Over A JOO Kilted.
A thrilling story of the revolt at ltle
Jnuolre en December 18, in which nearly
200 men were killed, I told by Chlof Officer
J. lUngdale, of the Kngllsh steam nr Hally,
which hi arrived st Brooklyn. ThoeUlcer
says:
"Frenuvhnt I can understand the trouble
had been brewing for sonie time. When
the new government took charge It
premised te raise the pay of the soldiers,
hut this was put off until the regiments
beciune oxasperatod. Among the artillery
efllccrs were a number of xyinpatlilters
with Dem Pedro, who nover lest an oppor
tunity te malign the new government and
Inclte the poeplo te open rebellion. A
number of suiall revolts resulted. Kven
the newspapcrs, although printing glow
ing accounts of the enthusiastic reception
of tlie new Hag In the' various province,
had begun fault finding with the govern
ment. "This sort of thing continued up te De
cember 18. when thoMecend artillery regi
ment, with whom Dem Pedre had been
very popular, broke out in open revolt. At
about 7 o'clock In the evening they hauled
down the Hspubllcan flag and heisted ths
imperial standard, at the same time firing
artillery salutes. Hastily summoning his
cabinet, Fenscca inquired the meaning of
the cannonading, and en being Informed
erdered his officers te suppress It,
"Twe brigades of inrantry were ordered
out. aud the barracks In which ths re
bellious troops were ledged was sur
rounded en all sides. The streets leading
te the scene of the treuble wnre blocked
with soldler. The doers of the barracks
had been barricaded, hut were smashed
down by the Republican soldiers, and
several velleys wero poured into the ranks
et the Insurgents with torrible results.
"The artlllerymen made seme show of
fighting, and ten of the llenubllcan soldlers
wero killed. It took nearly two hours te
subdue the revolt. When the fighting
stepped lit men and two olllcers were
found te have been killed. All of the offi
cers and ringleaders, together with a
number of citlrcns who had Joined them,
wero arrested, and the remainder of the
regiment was put under guard. Tliose
arrested wcre tried by court martial
two days later, and fifty meu and
woven olllcers were executrd. Thore were
elclit I'ltlrens who lelncd In the unrlslm:.
Tney were placed en the Merman steamer
Lisben and sent te Hamburg with
Inslruc-
tlens net te return. Sluce this
took nlare
everything has been nulct. but I think
mero treuble will hietk out at the first
chance the soldlers get. Hverythtng Is
ruled by tlie army, and the people are get
ting tired of It."
