These figures should cause every thinking man
to pause and a?k. Whither ,ir? we drifting? lt la
true that New-York ts a great State; it is a grow?
ing and prosperous State, lt is an rnl'ghtened and
progressive State, and lt ls only natural to expeet
that the expenses of government would increase;
?Sri a proper regard for the interests of tho people
would suggest that the expenses of government
should progress in something Uko the same ratio
tis the growth of tho population. Hut such ls not
tbs case. The cost of government has far out
urippid the Increase or population The census
of IV.VI showed the population of this State tO be
?."82.871: the last census, that of ISM, ShOWed a
population of (.118.141 a gain of 2* per cent. The
total appropriations for malnN-nanoo of the State
government in 1W1 WSTa fg,8Tt,2H BS, and In !**>
they were $3ri.02<i,o22 47 an increase, of nearly los
per cent lt appears, therefore, that the expenses
of government June Increased nearly four times
rs fast as the population. It ls true'the tax rate
has not increased at anything like this ratio, and
for that reason the ordinary taxpayer bas not
realized how greatly the expenses cf government
are multiplying. The reason for this la that large
amounts are being raised from Indirect sources.
Last year fg.14JB.C10 H was collected from corpora*
tions. IB.7M.4Sa1 from the collateral Inheritance and
transfer tax. KSLatl M> from the organization tax
and 0.M4.O14 9*. from excise, making a total of
$Mrtrt.22* Ol raised from indirect sources. Real es?
tate was relieved of the imrden of taxation to this
extent, hut the fact ls that the money obtained from
Indirect sources rame from the people and busi?
ness Interest! of this State, just as much as the
direct tax did. In other words, the people con?
tributed, from on* source or another, the entire
J3T,<?vh'i?? expended.
CORPORATION TAXES COLLECTED.
The amount of corporation tax collected by the
Controller's Department during the last three
fiscal years was as follows:
1?A4 . gt.Stl.8TS Sf
1806 . 1.8."7.343 2r.
1S08 . 2.105. RIO 12
During: this period of thtee years the number
Of corporations brought under the opi ration of tho
tax !sws was increased from lill to j.fl. and tho
State's revenue was Increased moro than B09.M9.
Th* effect is that rea] estate has been relieved of
Just so much taxation.
Daring the fiscal year ending September SO, 1S96,
there tams collected under the Inheritance Tax
law the sum of fd.7ll.4JU. For the. fiscal year end?
ing September .io. fjas, the inheritance tax yielded
82.11**94 i?1 Few large estates, however, could be
taxed in UM Mr. Roberts makes a suggestion re?
garding the Inheritance tax which will undoubted?
ly arouse wide popular discussion, and be debated
at length In the legislature. His suggestion ls
that the inheritance uw bs graded so us to weigh
heaviest on the largest estates. He says:
It occurs to me also that lt would be well for
the Legislature to give very serious consideration
to the question as to whether the collateral In?
heritance (,r transfer tax laws should not be ma?
terially amended so .i* to provide a graded scale
thal will make Ung. estates yield very much more
tax than they now do At present an estate go?
ing to iine-ils ubat is. Neils of tho blood! pays 1
Jw-r cut. and one toing to collaterals and strangers
to the blood pays ", pep cn'. All estates going
to laicals, real and personal, miler 110,000, are
exempt from taxation, and onlv the personal prop?
erty of the llneala above gtS.000 ls taxable. Es?
tates of less than 1500, r?al and personal, going to
collaterals, ijre exempt, but both the realty and
personalty of fhe collateral above $,',"10 are taxed.
Bequests lo doss estie rind religious corporations
and to bishops are exempt
lt will be aeen from thi-; that a grading of the
ti\ ls attempted in the present law. but lt ls a
serioua question whether it does not fall far short
of accomplishing thal which should be attained.
If an estate of less than 210,000 should be exempt.
Why should nit one millions greater pay a higher
rate than a ttO.000 estate? A large estate would
certainly be lesa burdened by the payment of s
higher rate than a small estste would bs by tho
pHvment of a lesser one.
'ihe principal burden of the inheritance tex falls
upon personal property. No class cf property ls
better entitled to bear this kind of a tax than is
personal As a rule. \\ escapes taxation during
the life ?>f the owner. The equalised taxable value
Of re.-.I estate in this State In the year )3N was
. I " 1.7*0.907; In the year isHi'., the last year reported,
ll -I reached t3.90S.SuS.3T7, a. nain of fg.IK.UM1S,
or more than Iii per cent. The equalised value of
taxable personal property in 1?7'> was $434,280,278,
ur,) In ISM lt was f4S0.ff49.S26. a gain of only 126,379.
?1A. or l.-ss than -I per teni Now it ls a well
known fact that the irtcreaae In value of personal
property in tbl? State of kate years has ben much
mar.- rapid than that of reul estate, and th.it the
iimount of personal property owned here is equal
to !f not more than tbs amount Of rial estate;
y. t the above tigur< s Indicate a fabuloua growth
In the amount of taxable real'estate, while, com?
paratively, the Increase In the amount of personal
property reported for taxation purposes ls scarcely
worth speaking about. Toe total amount of per?
sonal propertj now on the tax rolla is a trifle over
one-ninth as much ns the real estste, and only a
friction more than ll was tweuiy-stx vents ugo.
It is submitted wh.ther it would IJOl be wise to
amend tba Inheritance Tax law by adding an?
other section, which shall provide for th?- imposi?
tion of 11 tax as follows; Five |ier cenl on estates
Of 11.000.000 and b-ss than COnO.OOO; 10 per cent on
estates of 12,000.000 and leas than O.000.000; IS per
cent 'ii .-tates of <'."-I.Ono and over.
This pronosed amendment does riot in any man?
ner affect estates of less than tl.000,000, bul ii does
sim at a material Increase In th- tax paid by very
large estates, it will be a matter ol Interest 10

Or.ce more Mr. Roberts rails attention to the
large cost of legislative Investigations, and sug
reets that a law ho passed fixing by law a uniform
' per diem rate for the payment of the expenses of
members of the Legislature when eagagsd on such
* " 'Srt??tons. Ho further says:

support of Its minor charitable institutions. Mr.
Roberts reports, was 11.010,8X1 Og, which la exclusive
af home products and profits from manufacturing.
He draws attention to the striking difference In
the per capita cost of maintaining the various in
tttfuttons. He says there is a tendency among the
managers of charitable institutions of late years
largely to increase the wage* and salary lists and
rxpenses of management, and that "this tendency
las continued, with no sign of abatement.''
He says further:

Albany. Jan. .'4. I/Oiils F. Parn has no doubt that
he will be nominated for Statp Superintendent of

tion will be confirmed by tho votes of Republican
Senators. An impression has prevailed that tie
term of office of James F. Pierce, the present Sn
pcrlnte:id?nt of Insurance, will expire on January
3>. There has been some question regarding thS
eva-t date of the expiration of his term, but lt ht s
bppn definitely determined to be February ll. Mr.
ParU'g friends expect that he will be nominated and
confirmed by the Senate, eo that he will be able to
take offlcp on the day of the expiration of the term
of the present Superintendent. A close friend of
Mr. Pavn said to-night:
"Mr. Payn will be confirmed as State Superin?
tendent of Insurance hy the votes rf Republican
Senators. HS never had any Idea of securing th"
support of pemocratle Seniors, and would not
take the office unless he wt ie roi,firmed by the
VOtOS of Republican Senators There is no nason
to believe that he will HOI he. There will be no
necessity cf caucusing thc Republican Senators on
j Mr. Payn'.' nomination, any more Han there was
; in their caucusing on the nomination of Mr. Platt
to be Fnited States Senator."
Tue question of Mr. Para's appointment will be
I the chief topic of conversation In legislative and

nomination niling this office.

of the guests will leave Albany on the midnight

the State League of Republican Clubs, sa\s the ban?
quet will eclipse any ever given in tue State. Mr.
Platt will arrive In Albany on the Empire State Ex?
press shorrly before noon on Tuesday and will have

of the Legislature, but If tie does not find time lo do

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA
HOW THE OVERTURES OF THE DOMINION
GOVERNMENT ARE REGARDED.
OPINION TN WASHINGTON SEEMS TO PE THAT TOO
MANY DIFFICt LTIF.9 STAND IN THE WAT
FOR ANT lUlAMMUL NEGOTIA?
TIONS TO RBSJULT.
TBT TELEonAPH TO THE TRIBUNE]
"Washington. Jan. SI- That the leaders of the
Liberal party of Canada, which has recently
regained control of the Dominion C.overnment.
ore exceedingly anxious to establish closer and
more satisfactory commercial relations between
Cannda and the United stntcs ls a fact that is
well understood hy statesmen In Congress. The
Litter also clearly perceive the difficulties
which are In Hie way, and which it is not In the
power of the Liberal Government to remove
without radical change* In 'he commercial poi
ii y of Qi-eat Hritain, which dominates and con?
trols that of Canada
Judging from replies to Inquiries made among
members of the C munlttee on Ways and Means
and other prominent and influential members
<f the House of Representatives by a Tribune
correspondent, the difficulties referred to arr
regarded as not only fnrnildal.le. hut Insur?
mountable by the majority of them, and Mr.
Charlton, the Liberal member of the Dominion
Parliament, from one of the Ontario districts,
who has been in Washington for several weeks
joist as an unofficial representative of the Lib?
eral Government, cannot have found the pros
pert an encouraging urie. Of course, he realizes
that it would be absurd to attempt to negotiate
a reciprocity treaty on such ft basis as that
of the 'Rip-handled'' Marcy-Elgin arrangement
of 1854, which covered only the natural products
Of the United Stat's and Canada. American
statesmen have not j Pt forgotten how Canada
profited at Hip expense of the United States by
that treaty, and memories of the Halifax Award
still rankle in their bosoms The exasperating
and unneighborly policy of the Dominion Gov?
ernment in renard lo the fisheries question,
which policy has been uniformly sustained bv
(Jreal Hritain. has also awakened feelings of
Jual indignation and resentment, which ll will
require time and something more tanglidp than
the pledges of even i Liberal Dominion Govern?
ment lo eradicate.
It ls true Hint Mr. Charlton gays, ?iif"l no
doubt says with sincerity, thal the Liberals
deeply deprecate that policy and will reverse
it. In reply to this declaration, a lending mem?
ber of the Ways and Means Committee said:
"Very well. Lets wail until the Canadian Gov
ernment brines fnrth fruit meet for repentance,
or ls allowed to do so by "'rent Britain. Noi
many weeks ano sn American fishing vessel
was seized in Canadian waters by a Canadian
i raiser, because her master had furnished a
supply of fond to aunt hu- American fishing ves?
sel, in a half-wrecked and disabled condition,
whose new wire on tho verge of Starvation.
It will do no harm to wait."
The suggestion, or intimation, that as a part
of the consideration for a reciprocal commercial
treaty, or arrangement, Canada will reverse her
fishery policy, which has I.D BO hostile and
injurious to the Interests of American lisher
men, is by no means favorably received by
Am. rican statesmen, sum.' of whom bluntly say
that its acceptance would be a formal admis?
sion that the Canadians had had a right to pur
sue a policy ami guppori practices "such as
were common anning the Hat harv pirates a hun?
dred \ chis ago."
In conversation with a Tribune correspondenl
on the subject "f the overtures tTiat may prob?
ably be expected on behalf of the DominLm
Government, chairman Dingley, of the Commit?
tee "ii Ways and Means, said: "Mr. Charlton J
has been tn see me, and w?> ha\e Informally dla
eusaed the question. As l understood him. he
had not ..on- to Washington as a representative
of the Liberal Government, but simply with a
view to ascertain, as ;i member <>t the Liberal
majority in tie- Dominion Parliament, what is
the attitude .if public sentiment here in regard
to commercial reciprocity between tin- United
Statis and Canada Of course, I could express
only mj own views on that subject. That no
arrangement like that .if is."i would be jios
slble, or desirable, on tin- port of the United
statis, he seemed clearly t" perceive and un?
derstand. M) own view i-* that it would be,
Impracticable t'i make any satisfactory treaty
or arrangement for commercial reciprocity be
tween th'- 1 nlted Statis and Canada, unless
?lii at Hritain should*give tim latter the pill liege
of Imposing preferential duties in favor of cer?
tain manufactures "f the United Siutes.
Whether Great Britain would agree tn such a
discrimination by one of her colonies*against
her own manufacturers was a question which,
of course, Mt. Charlton was not prepared to
answer, and which the canadian Government
itself would not be prepared to answer until
authorised to do so by th.' British Government."
Governor Dingley'! attention was then called
to the list of manufactured sriicles mainly
those which wire considered In the abortive ne?
gotiations of 1*71 bet ween Secretary Fish and
Sir Edward Thornton which Mr. charlton In a
recent published Interview had suggested .-s a
partial basis for s reciprocity agreement which
Great Hritain would probably assent to.
"Yes, I have ^.-.-n Ihe list." said Chairman
Dingley. "Mo*i of Ihe manufactured articles
mentioned are now freely exported from the
United stairs to canada, ami our manufactur?
ers virtually control the canadian mat kel. s i far
as many of them ai<- concerned In none of
them, so far as i have Investigated the matter,
do mir manufacturers experience formidable
competition from British manufacturers."
"Mr Charlton also suggests," remarked the
correspondenr. "thal Canada niicht he willing
to admit com and cornmeal from the United
States free of duly under a reciprocity arrange?
ment."
"Well. Canada ls obliged to have the corn, and
cannot Kit lt from any other country so easllv
or cheaply ns fr.un th" United Stales.'sn I should
not regard that as an important or valuable ron*
cession." observed Governor Dingley.
"It is als.i suggested thal lb order'to establish
closer and more satisfactory commercial rela?
tion! with the United States. Canada stands
nady to modify and relax her fishery laws and
regulations, tn co-operate in carrying nut the
project to improve ami deepen tim water chan?
nel of communication through the Great Lakes
and soon, in the Interest nf International comity.
What do you think of that suggestion?"
"Well, there ar* several ihinps that Can ida
< mid have linne, and wisely done, In th,. Interest
of International comlt) years sgo, without ask?
ing* or expecting thc United Plates tn pay her for
them. Hu- policy in regard tn the American
fishery industry his been illiberal and unjust in
the extreme, and the manner in which it has
been carried out has not been calculated tn im?
prove the relations between that country ."id the
United Siat.s. tn say tic- least nf it. (if course,
it is now said that the policy is tn be reversed
and that all causes of just complaint are tn be
removed. I sincerely hope that will be done, but
it does nm non seem clear lo me why the United
States should be expected lo pay for th" doing
nf ii by the granting nf new commercial privi?
leges '?> canada in fnct, a hm everything ls
taker. Into consideration, it seems the reverse nf
clear. The commercial policy nf the i'nited
Slates in regard tn Canada has always been an
? \ eedingl) liberal one, In rlew "f all the ctr
i umstancei For example, it has granted to her
the \aiuaidc privilege "f shipping Knnds in bond
through th- United Stut.s to Atlantic seaports,
together with facilities without which Canada
would be destitute .>f an Atlantic port of ship?
ment durirtr the winier months The with?
drawal of thal privilege would ne a severe blow
t" Canada
Among r- pr -tentatives from all the Stater, that
tout il the canadian border the prevailing "pin?
ion seems tr, te that lt would he impra. tj, gbl? to
I negotiate ., rectprocltj treaty, w\\h the connon*
of <;i u' Britain, which would be sotlsfscti
| just to the United Stat's. In fact, most of them
dn not appear lo believe that nich a treaty or
agreement would be desirable on am terms and
I many of them therefore are disinclined r , . M
, sider any of the de Ulla proponed as a basia of
\ negotiations for such a tu-ah or agreement

POLITICAL \OTER.
The c|ose?t contesr in any cf rhe States at the
recent election ls believed to have been that for the
Stare Treasuryshln In South Dakota, where the
Republican candidate non by a majority of two
votes In a total yore of more than M.OOQ,
Republicans In general have witnessed with great
satisfaction the harmony that has prevailed among
the Ohio chieftains for the last two years. The
fruits of i? arc spph in the election of Bushnell to
ti.e Governorship, Forager to the senate and if
McKinley to the Preeldenc) "Senator rYrak-r
fills one side of the Senatorial retire.-, uta Hon With
brilliant promise." says the Philadelphia Press.
''and with Mr. Hanna as his colleague the two
together wo'ild admirably represent the whole party
and the whole State.'"
According to the Washington correspondent of
"The Otsogo Democrat." Speaker Heed will make
numerous enemies, "who will lie heard from If be

should the Free Homestead bill fall to pass. The
bill as originally passed by the House only pro?
vided for free homesteads in Oklahoma, but amend?
ments Were added extending the free homesteads
before the Senate passed lt. and when the bill wen*. |
bark lo the House, instead of allowing the House
to vote on the Senate amendments, so that tho
bill could be sent to conference If they were nor
I accepted by the ll,oise. Speaker Heed s.nt the bid
back to the Committee on Public Lands, which
the friends of the bill believe was done for the pur
pose of having it smothered. Hence their tears and
threats.
Whether Mark lianna ls or ls not elected to g
seat In the Senate. "The itlens Falls Times" knows
that should he be successful he will have gained lr
by fair, straightforward fighting. While there are
a Rreat many ways ol' lighting, it feels certs I i
that the "honorable way N the only one Mr. Hanni
indulges in," either In state or National campaigns.
Assemblyman William Cary Stinger seems, to
"The Dctgeville Herald." richly endowed with the
faculty of unfailingly commanding the respect and
esteem of even those who disagree with him as to
quest iona of publle "...won. in what
Kentucky intensity of political feeling ls Illus?
trated in the case of the late Major CrOOtttWa't,
who. In his will, ordered that on his tombstone
should in- inscribed, "Free silver at the ratio of

Louis F. Parn is reported to be favorable to kt,
Governor flack's suggestion of biennial sesslors of
the Legislature will not meit with the approval of
the professional politicians, according to "The Nya.k
Journal." as they reKard the opportunities In New
York as toj great and valuable to be loot, and there?
fore they cannot iiff.ird to leta whale year tm by with?
out a single chance tostrlkc Ihecorporatl MS for some
proposed change in the isws. "if the people bad a
voice, the verdict," says "The Journal," "would prob?
ably be that a srsslon once In four or six years would
be often enough for the law-makers to coilgregat. i:
Albany. The-- are more laws on the statute honks
now than any first-class lawyer can wade through
In a lifetime."
That politics makes some men and breaks chers

The trip which some of ta- Buffalo Hoard of Super?
visors Indulged In last august, ostensibly to Investi?
gate a consumptive hospital In New-York, and which
embraced a visit to Coney Island and other popular
reSOftl In and around New-York, and for which each
of them renderpd th* city a bill for $T">, aroused the
I Good Oovernmenl Club of that city Into activity, and
an Investigation was made. Evidence was pru.lured
to show that there was no consumptive hospital in
New-York, and that the money alleged to have been
spent hy the Supervisors was far in excess of what
would be the ordinaly legitimate expenses of a Inn
to New-York City. Warrants have been sworn out and
one of the party has been arrested. "The Syracuse
P lat" believes tnat If this it ad happene I in Onondaga
County the taxpayer! would have done nothing ex?
cept, perhaps, growl a little nnd then forget the wb de
matter, a~ was done in the case of the Syracuse
