Unsolved first No government has
tho right to itnpoio taxes director in-
direct iu their nature for nny other
than strictly public governmental pur
iihos No government has J lie right
to foster monopolies or to Sncourngo
any industry at tho expenso of others
It Is tho duty of ovory branch of tho
government to enforce and practice
tho most rigid economy In tho conduct
of our publio nffalrs aud no more ro
vetino ought to bo rniatd than u re
ijulrtd to defray tho necessary ex-
penses of tho government and for tho
gradual but certain extinction of tho

pose of protecting any Industry A
