who have invested largo sums in U. 8.

cure from taxe», becauso there are a large
number of boldors in small amounts rang
ing from ISO to $500. They arg.uo that
those men novor will consent to have them
taxed tho sumo as other property. But
this its evidontly a mistaken idea. The
»mall bondholder who has invested bis
limitod savings in the bonds, will one day
realize tho fact that to meet the interest on
these bonds, he is obliged to pay a great
deal more in tho increased coat of itvinjg for
himself and family, in tho shape of licen
ses and excise duties, than he gets back
from tho government, and in the mean
timo.if not in debt, bo obliged to pay
double Stato and local taxes on his other
property in conseouence of the property of
his wealthier neighbors being exempt from
those taxes to tho amount of thoir Bonds.
In the course of a few years, government
bonds now held by men of small mean»
will find their way into market. The ten
dency of this kind of capital is to accu
mulate in masses, and bonds of small de
nomination will gradually got out of the
hands of tho original holders, and into
these of men of largo capital, who hold
them as the safest investment they can
make. Inthiswaya in on iod aristocracy
will be built up—a privileged class—who
only pay a nominal government tax on the
income derived from them, while being
as fully protectod in their enjoymont of
