Comments on the Decision TJnlversally Unfavorable.

MAST EDITORS AIR THEIR VIEWS.

Friend* of tho Ltw Pronounce It Bndljr Crippled, While lt» Opponent* Ar* t'onttrmert in Opinion* of

It* Injustice.

CHICAGO, April 9. The leading dadies of this cit,v comment as follows on the decision of 1he supreme court justices with reference to the income tax law: y.

Tribune (rop.V: The able 1 renting opinion of Mr. Justice Field UK'IH to havo bi-en tho opinion of the majority of the court If the lower court had held tho wliole law unconstitutional, the supreme court. being evenly divided 08 it is. the adverse decision would have beeu sustained by reason or that decision. Therefore those who pay an In.ome tax this year will do so simply because I happened that suit was begun before a judge who disliked to assume tho responsibility of lidding an act of congress unconstitutional. It seems to be understood that Mr. Ju*tloe Jackson, who took no part In the consideration of the Income tux ijuestion, will resign this year and a successor be appointed. It will be in the power of President Cleveland to select a muu for or against the constitutionality of the law. If the latter, then If another suit is begun next year the whole law will be declared invalid. When the senate is called on to confirm the next justice it will have to decide whether the income tax law Rhtill be sustained or upset.

Inter Ocean (rep The effect of the decision Is to leave the law in force, except as to those provisions Kpecilloally declared unconstitutional, namely: bonds, state and municipal, and real estate rents, issues and profits. These exceptions may be good law. but If so they Kreally strengthen the argument against the law as a holo in point of fairness, bondholders and landlords are among those leant entitled to exemption.

Record (Ind.): The result of a months work of the supremo court and of several months' labor on the part of a number of lawyers Is—nothing. Nothlnir but a mutilated tax law, made so absurdiy unjust by the partial decision of the court that If it Is not speedily declared unconstitutional as a whole great injustice will be doue before congress has an opportunity to repeal it

An impracticable Idealism. OMAIIA, Neb., April 9.—The WorldHerald says in an editorial on the income tax law decision: "The philosophy of ethics, the spirit of economics. and the doctrine of equality before the law, Is here set aside, and the theory that wa are a nation of people, frfte and equal is now pronounced Impracticable Idealism He who has rent or Income of real estate, and he who has coupons of state, county or town Injud* to present- for redemption in cash on stated days, is protected from the tax gatherer by the strong arm of the nation The supreme oourt says the constitution of the republic demands that the law of the land shall be so construed, and while the people acquiesce, they would ask where is the government by the people, oX the people and for all tlie people tud't Wellington, Jefferson and Lincoln talked about?"

Matter of Deep Kegret.

DKS MOINES, la., April G.—The Leader (dem.) says regarding the income tax decision: "It is uselem to conceal the fact Vhat the decision greatly cripplos the law. ln-

torered,

eed. It will be tortunate If it is dlswhen the defective portions of the law ore striken out, that all of It 1* not made practically nugatory. This Is a result deeply to be rogretted. for if there ever was a law rlghteoui In purpose aud wise In Its design It is the one which has thus been dismembered"

A Notorious Blunder.

8T. PAUL, Minn.. April 9.—The Dispatoli makes the following' oomment in its editorial in regard to the income tax decision: "The maimer In which the bill was prepared and the carelessness manifested In its passage makes It one of tbe moat notorious bltfn/lers ever committed by a responsible body like the congress of the United States."

Fails to Strike the Drones.

Mn.wAI'KF.K. April V. —The Seebote, I the German democratic daily of this city, says of the decision: "The moral effect of the decision will be a damaging one throughout the land for the law. as It now stands, will strike oulv the produeers of tli" country and not the droues. as was originally intended. •Senator Jllll's Vlnw.

WA.SIIINC,TON, April 9.—tienator Hill, who. more than anyone else, antagonizeil the enactment of the income tax into law when It was before the I Semite, IVH» tin interested spectator and close listener in the courtroom when the opinion was handed down -Monday. The senator expressed hitnM'lf as gra*. itied at the decision as it elVects t«" im]vrtant. questions involved in tiif act. both of which he vigorously pressed in the .senate among other objections to the law. Ue had never had any doubt that the tax imposed by the income tax law. is a direct tax in all its features and, hence, an unconstitutional tax. lie continued: "There never was any good reason for the enactment of the income tux law. It was pres-od upon congress by a lot of populists, so olallsts. crank* and disturbers and t.he'.r views were unwisely adopted. It was class legislation of the worst kind. From a political poliit of view it was tho height of folly to adopt legislation of that character. The law is unjust itlable and undemocratic aud I rejoice that It has c.et at least a portion of Its death blow the rest will follow In duo time."

Will t'Hine Itflf r«t.

I.IMOI.N, Neb., April U.—The State Journal says of the inco'ue tax decision: The bloated bond Holder was tho chap the populists were shooting at when they voted for the bill and it willcause poignant, regret to know that he is about the uly rich man wlu was missed.
