taxable income of a corporation
is all its income above its opera-

paid to shareholders, The tax of

individual's income which is de-

Those Republicans and

make somebody think that they
believe the Democratic party, as
a national organization, is dead,
are merely making themselves
ridiculous. The Democratic party

the memory of every middle-aged
man, made six successive
campaigns

in one at toe handset an abortion
known as the electoral

members which resulted in a stay-
at-home vote large enough to de-
feat it in a Congressional
On the contrary, that de-
feat will eventually make the
Democratic than
ever before, because it will result
in showing some of the
experimenters that
from the established
of the party will not be
tolerated by the voters; that
thousands, aye millions of good
Democrats will refuse to endorse
any half-and-half principles,
defeat to compromise with
principles they have been taught
to oppose. The recent election
was a bitter lesson, but the
will prove that it was a use-
one.
President Cleveland is not
ax ending much time at the White
House just now, because the time
is short between this and the
assembling of Congress and his
annual message to Congress,
which will be one of the most
important to the country and to
the Democratic party he has ever
written, requires bis time,
and be work undisturbed at
his country something
which has shown him
he cannot do this office at the
White House. During bis
the President devoted much
time to studying the financial
system of the country which is
generally admitted to be radically
defective, and the of that
study will be shown in the rec-
of his message to
Congress.
No Democrat possibly re-
the issue of bonds officially
this week by Secretary
more than does
and the members
of bis but in the face of
the necessity for the
national credit, and in the ab-
of any other method, owing
to the system inherited from a
long series of Republican ad-
ministrations, regrets were idle
and action imperative. When a
merchant finds his credit
owing to his receipts
less than his expenditures, he
cannot afford to waste time in
regrets because those
are largely the result of ex
contracts made by his
predecessor. His credit must be
protected and nothing will do
that but prompt payment of his
obligations as they mature,
to do that he must have money
and it can only be had by borrow-
it on bis note. That he does,
to his ability to stop the
leaks in his business and make it
profitable in older to pay it back.
That is precisely the position of
the administration in announcing
issue of bonds.
