Anion? .tl! the ?ii'suincnts with which able men
hnve assailed a measure penalizing inilusiry,
thrift and prosperity we have seen nom? at once
so MgtOl nnd so compart.
The Governor'? nvnionindtiiii on this tax bill
Is especially ci?mmendnbl?? G?? the caiitlnr and
explieitness with which ii exposes and condemns
the false principi? s on which ?he bill is based.
It is true thai a large amount <?f pcreona* prop?
erty cacapes taxation, though not ?lislmnestly to
any rmch extent as has been represen ? ed; bm a
MUgc .iiiionnt "loe?, not esinpe. and yet, a< ilnv
crnnr P.laek observes, tliis bill "in order to reach
"those who have ovaiied would punish those
"who have already paid," and "this State ought
"not to confess ihat it is powerless to enforce
"Its laws except by grouping ihe innocent and
"guilty tosythet and punishing the whole." In
that sentein? the Governor clearly shows how
unjust as well as irrational is the purpose which
the hill avows.
Morally spe;;kin_. this subjection of innocent
and guilty to the same penally is perhaps the
atrnageet objection to the VEX Legally, the dis?
crimination ?i. raies of taxation which it would
esr-biish may be siili mure obnoxious. "If ibis
Is constitutional." as Governor Hlack remark??.
"it ought not to be." "There Is no reason why
"on?? man's dnllar should pav more thnn another
"man's." or why "the last million dollars of a
"man's property should pay more than the flrst
"million." Any theory of taxation which does
not include eipialiiy, the basis of all our Institu
t.oiis. "is noi only unjust, but dangerous. If
"such a tax as this could be Imposed, any other
"might he.'' It is not true, moreover, in any
general sense which is the only sense In whb h
the fallacy i> propounded that the rich nre
growtag richer nnd the poor poorer, and the
claim "would have no hearing here if ? were.''
These incontrovertible propositions ?jr, to the root
of the mat ter. and Governor Hlack deserves
great ciPdit and gratitude for the onrage with
which he has assert?*?! them, in ? lima ?if wen!<
n-Kisiamr to sophistical reasonings ani recules?;
co-operation with the force? of dtaorder.
There are other valid arguments against the
bill which are dotirfd from a eajsjaliWrtl! m of
graft lea* 1 conditions In an erocrgency .'itisene
in every walk of life would 'cheerfully bear
heavy burden?-, without inquiring too .'?oeelj
int.? rhe manner in which they were laid, fjill
the Stnt?* Is not in need'either of large add!
tional revenues from any source. ,u of havin;:
a low tax rat?? tor Slate pnrpos.-s trail ? by
fxtrfloniimfiy means It does deatre, bowevar,
for the ?'immoti beneiit, a contlniieil |?i?|i?v of
anbetantlol citizens, and such an abundan.?? of
employment and prosperity of money in mt?
produces. The Governor boldly says that if the
bill were Just he should without hesitation ?-on
front the prospect of Its driving Wealthy men
frotn the Slate. Helng whnr it is. it deninn<l?'d
f*>r the ??ake of right the veto which from every
point of view is advantageous to the State. We
de not question the good faith of the author or
of many advocates of the hill, nnd we hope tinsi
'i;e.y will recognize before long their .?*a obli
I g?tions to tlip excellent sens?? nnd firmness of
