The Income Tax
The Senate has rescinded its action
relative to the income tax; after abol
ishing it entirely by a large majority in
a full Senate, advantage was taken of
the absence of a number of Senators, to
restore the tax, diminishing the rate to
two and a half per cent. This result was
largely brought about by the influence
of the great railroad corporations of the
country, which in Congress and every
where else use their great power to
advance their own selfish aims at
the expense of all the other interests
in the country. Senator Sherman, the
chairman of the Finance Committee,
stated in the Senate, when the recon
sideration of the income tax was brought
about, that if it was abolished entirely,it
would be necessary to restore the tax on
the gross receipts of corporations—which
loud likewise been stricken out by the
Senate—inasmuch as one or the other
of these taxes was necessary to ensure
the raising of the required amount of
revenue. Senators Abbott, Anthony .
and Wilson, under this representation,
changed their previous votes; and this
sufficed to decide, so many Senators be
ing absent, that the tax should be
t•tken off the railroads and laid upon
the people. The New York Tribune
aptly says of this result of railroad
influence: "So the railroads are carry
ing their tyranny into every household, '
and propose nets to burden us in time
of peaCe and prosperity with an E.C:ll't i,,11
which, like the draft turd the legal-ten
der act, could only be justified by the
extraordinary fiece,sities of war."
It reads sometvliat oddly t hoo2ll to see
the Ttibun , and ot her Republican panel ,
objecting to the income tax on aeeoulit
ol• its unconstitutionality. It is doubt
less unconstitutional, being in roothet
with the provision that :ill diroot

states accord opt to their respective 1111111-

Many of his fellow citizens have
rashly allowed theinhelves to be

that Grant is mean, because of the rule
which lie hits adopted of never making
a present at the cost of his private purse,
not ev, n violating the rule of his life
when he Is the chief guest at the wed

are advised of the delicate scruples which
have induced the President's action,
they will not only dismiss their ungen

the deepest admiration of the lovely
character of theireonsiderate and sensi
tive chief magistrate.
San Domingo
The investigation which has taken
place into the circumstances under
which the scheme for the annexation
of San Domingo to the United States was
initiated, has developed the fact that an
extraordinary interest has been mani
fested by President Grant in the success
of the project, and facts have been tes
tified to, which create a suspicion in
the public mind that this interest has
not been solely occasioned by the Pres
ident's belief that the annexation would
be for the best interest of the United
States. We trust that this suspicion is
not well founded, for it would be a sad
thing for our country, if it should be
proven, that its Chief Executive Officer
has used the immense power of his po
sition with the deliberate purpose of
thereby enriching himself or his friends.
The investigation has gone so far as to
raise a suspicion as to the President's
motives, in endorsing this annexation
scheme; if that suspicion is unjust, the
inquiry should be still farther prosecu
ted, so as to fully demonstrate the
l'reAdent's innocence, and to relieve the
country from the sad reproach which
will cling to it for all time should his
guilt be proven.
We know that plant is ignorant, in
dolent and avaricious; but we would

The Chinese Question
The Chinese question has suddenly
taken its place in the very front rank of
the political questionz•ef the hour. It
/Os long been, agitated on the Pacific
Slope where the Chinese, originally in
troduCed to satisfy a demand in thelabor
MarkOt, forth apromlnent feature of the
population. ' ,ln the States eastef the
Rocky Mountains, Whither John had
not penetrated in any numbers, and
where his coming en incase does not
seem to have been seriously apprehend
ed, but little interest has heretofore been
manifested in the question which has
been agitating California, nor has any
sympathy been manifested for the latter
State, afflicted as it is with a large popula
tion of vicious aliens, of an inferior race.
On the contrary these Chinamen have
been invested by the action of the
Eastern States in adopting the constitu
tional amendment, with the privileges
of citizenship and suffrage of which now
no State can deprive them. We appre
hend that If the question of the Fifteenth
Amendment was presented now to the
Legislatures of the States which recent
ly endorsed it, it might not receive their
approval ; for, fond as they are of the
negro, whom they have rashly raised to
an equality with themselves, they
might have hesitated to establish
the principle of the universal suf
rage, had they contemplated the pos
sibility that our country might soon
relieve China of a hundred millions
of the four hundred millions of Mongo
lians that inhabit the Celestial Empire.
The beginning of this 1110VellIellt has
been made ; there are many reasons
wily it may be reasonably expeeted to
increase in force (mill in the early
future the Chinese may de:wend upon
our land as :l SW:11111 a and take
possession of it.
The importation of a hundred labor

turer a feNv \\midis ago has given it, prcs

It is a small enough matter in it,elf, but
derives its importance front the fact
which it demonstrates, that l'hinese
labor can be introdtteed into this coun
try at half the cost of our own labor,
:old that it is moreover more reliable
and more easily controlled. It is
natural to suppose that capitalists who
employ large bodies of men kill not be
able to resist the temptation to use this
cheap labor; and if many of them em
ploy it, all gill have to do so or they
cannot compete with their neighbors in
the cheapness of their products. They
eituniit reduce the wages of their Ni bite
labor to the Chinese standard, liar that
would be a starvation rale to the white
man. (11111 a iS:lllOVer - popUlatCd v,alll
- and il5 inhabitants have I well taught
by necessity to liye in tlieclieiipest pos
sible inannor. They subsi,i on hoiled

woo of what are con, , i,lvrea here the
lecessary comforts of life. Thoirloaoe-
keepingexpenses are almost nothing, as
they herd together in large numbers,
rind theircooking isof thesimplest kind.
In cheapness, therefore, 111 i nese labor
is beyond competition, will as a practi
cally unlimited ;mound of it V:111 be i,
tained from over-populated China, its
cost will never be cull:owed by the hick
or an abundant supply. If Chinese
labor therefore is introduced amongst
us, it will monopolize the cheapest
fields and white men will have to
rely upon others, in which their supe
rior physical or mental characteristics
may give them advantage.
Hut we do not think that the people
of this country will permit this foreign
invasion, for it will be injurious to them
in all respects. \Ve do not want
our laborers thrown out of em
ployment by 111l' n(111.10011 pop

strikes uuc somewhat oddly to read an
article in the Telt!iec , declaring against
the dwelling amongst us of the l'hilicse
on account of the inferiority of their race
and saying that "all that hen , exists is
owing to this white race and is the work
of this race, which is the best base and
best built, the strongest and soundest,
the dominant and predominant, the
most aggressive and progres. , ,ive race
in the world ;" and adding that
" there is reason to dread the result
of the infusion and transfusion of
the Chinese, Mongolian or yellow race
with the white American race. 'l'h,
Mongolian blood is a depraved and de
based blood. The Mongolian type of
humanity is an inferior type—inferior
in organic structure, in vital force or
physical energy and in the constitu
tional conditions of development. ('an
we attbrd to permit the debasement of
the American race-types by intermix
ture with an inferior race?" This is
rather singular language to find in the
Tribune, the great advocate of the
equality of the black race, which is
admittedly inferior in intelligenceto the
yellow race. After endorsing and swal
lowing the negro, the Republican
leaders cannot very consistently tun'
their backs on the Chinese. But if they
have seen the error of their ways, they
will do themselves credit by sacrificing
their consistency, and seeking only to
do right.
The Chester county,lottpnal thus pic
tures the political " ring" of that coun
ty. It bears a striking likeness to the
" Thug" and " Reform" rings of our
Radical politicians:
" The Ringer Chester county is composed
of pettifogging lawyers who have not brains
enough to make an honest living at their
profession, broken-down politicians who
are too lazy to work for their living, and
the few men who are elected to the County
Hhees every three years. These are the
men who have made the nominations for
Chester county, and who will continue to
make them, unless the people take the
matter into their own hands, and set the
lazy drones to earning an honest living for
themselves.
The wife of Michael Reilly, of Itos•

The Express says that a considerable
number of its subscribers have, within
the last week or two, discontinued their
subscriptlens to it, because of the opin
ions which it has expressedon the tariff;
and complains that this is an attempt
upon the part of its former subscribers;
to intimidate it in the expression of its
opinion. We are aware that a number
of Republicans have ceased to take the
F,rpresB on account of its course on the
tariff question; but we do not think that
they have done so because they desired
to muzzle it in the expressipus of its
honest opinions, but rather because they
did not feel an abiding confidence that
they mere honest. One of our agents
in sending us un order for an additional
number of papers, writes us that " these
new subscribers are Republicans and
old readers of the Express who have
become intensely dissatisfied with its
recent course on the tariff question, and
say that if they must take a free trade
paper in order to get the daily local
news, they prefer an honest Democrat
ic sheet from whose antecedents noth
ing else could be expected, to their own
organ which has become recreant to
Republican State polities." Iris not sur
prising that people should not care to

Another strong reason for the dissat
isfaction of the people of Lancaster city
and county with this paper, is found in
the utter carelessness which it manifests
in the defense of our interest and the fre
quency with which it is ever seen bat
tling,on the side of theirassailants. Note
for instance how it excuses and defends
that powerful corporation the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, whenever it sets its foot
upon our local interests. Republicans
and Denincrats,and eitizCusofall degrees,
are indignant at the course of that com
pany in running trains at reckless speed
through our city, and some of them
without even stopping here for our ac
commodation; in neglecting., for yews,
to repair and rebuild the bridges over
the railway, although deluding our city
authorities with fair promises; in charg
ing our merchants enormous freights,
discriminating against us because they
have us at their mercy; and in many
other ways evincing a disposition to
show us no 'lnis i l l cratiun. Yet the -

whole community, excuses and jin4ilies,

ranroan company; and people ask, is it
because it desires to bask in the favor
of this great corporation? or why else is
it that this paper, which should be our
friend, is our enemy:' why should it
' strive to injure those who have warmed
it into life?

be judiciously tolerated as a

The Newfoundland variety may be tolerat

vindictive and cruel, no matter how faith

or species, does not, to our 'Mild, exhibit
a heavenward alfectiou, for we opine that
their pets will be found wit/sont, among a
most disreputable company, in the spirit

themselves to such company, they may
reasonably hope to enjoy the society of
dogs as freely and as fully there as here.
These views, of dogs in the abstract, may
after all be soinetlang although we know
many people will regard them as nothing.

THE DA BIEN EXPEDITION
The Project a Failure-..Dollit:s or the
Surveyors--Their Privations
and other Details.
The United States gunboat Nipsic, Com
mander T. 0. Selfridge, of the Darien Ship-
Canal Exploration Expedition, fifteen days
from Aspinwall, arrived* this port last
evening, and now lies anchored abreast of
Bedloe's Island, discharging her ammu
nition.
From her officers our reporter gained ad
ditional particulars yesterday afternoon re
garding the expedition, and the conclusions
arrived at after six months of privation and
hard work among the mountains and riv
ers of the Isthmus, in their great under
taking to solve the problem of the possibil
ity of uniting the Atlantic and l'acilic by
~anal. As has been before announced, the
work begun in May and concluded during
the present month has been a failure for
reasons, the chief of which is, that the ob
stacles encountered have proved to be of
such magnitude that it would require a
century's work to surmount them, and
would involve an expenditure to the
country that would undoubtedly defer the
payment of the national debt for years to
come.:
Lieutenant Hubbard, of the Nipsic, in
formed our reporter that during all their
explorations and surveys they encounter
ed a series of rivers and mountains that
were not supposed to have been in exis
tence, from the reports and charts that had
been previously given out, and that instead
of meeting with slight elevations in the in
terior, as was generally supposed, they

be almost impossible to tunnel. throwing

Terrible Accident
A t hal f-past two on Thursday an employee
of the cordage works at Elizabeth, N.J.,
aged 13 years, named Mary Uauntez, was
standing in a basement window looking
out doors; her loose hair caught in a shaft
and coupling, and was wound around the
same. She was drawn up, and the scalp,
with the exception of a portion near the
left ear, was turn off. She dropped to the
floor senseless. The surgeons have replaced
the scalp, but, though she is better, her re
covery is doubtful.
The AuU•Chlnewe Labor Meeting
The proceedings at the immense meeting
of the workingmen in Tomkins Square,
New York, Thursday evening, occupy
considerable space in the Now York papers.
The object was to give expression to the
sentiments of the workingmen of Now
York on the great question of Chinese
Labor vs. American Labor. There were
three stands, oneexpreesly for the Germans.
At the principal sunid Nelson W. Young
presided, who spoke °kilo vest importance
of the meeting to every man in the country,
and to the working,inen, and said that
it this element is now introduced it will
have a tendency to disarrange all the rela
tions of domestic life. Heretofore the work
ingmen of this country have had obstacles
to contend With, but now they arq called
upon to meet a crisis which is paramount,
a crisis which tends only to degrade honest
labor and reduce workmen and work
women to starvation, destitution and de
gradation.
He ridiculed the Idea that the introduc
tion of coolie labor is for the good of the
workingmen, and would enable them to
throw up the labor they were now per
forming and seek the highest professions.
He believed the element wits introduced,
Ito said,
for the purpose of reducing, the workman,
and to lower hint in the social scale if pos
sible, and make him the companion and
peer of a degraded ricer, but with no re
sponsibility; the elkilie will not support the
institutions of our country, and he will
never contribute one iota toward advancing
our prosperity.
'rhe speaker referred to the eagerness of
the workingmen to enter the field to main
tain the honor and integrity of the country;
and "why is it," he asked.
that the honest industry of the country to
day is obliged to call a meeting to protest
against the abuses that are 110, 1 oppressing
you ? It, is simply because there Is too
much class legislation. It is because men
make their politics seism,' to their re
ligion, and they fear to cast away the
shackles that binil them. There was
too nitwit legislation and representa
lion from one class, and when that was the
ease, things always. 0 eft Wrong, and in
favor of the utajurity.' • 11

but a speculation to 'mike the rich man
