The loyal: Congress has shown its desire for the wel-. to utterly ‘eradicate the rebellion. We people in Nevada county alone, of about! $110,000 this year. This much will be added to the working capital of the people, and the gain will beto every manuetur , Working man and capitalist in the county. ‘There. is ne man. who will; not be benefited, from: the laborer at two dollars and a lialf\pet day to the capitalist with his thotisands. We have heretofore shown how all classes will be benefited in the matter of the income tax, with an extheoldlaw. Hundreds:of men who labor’ in the mines for three dollars per day and paid this tax during the war are now exétupt; and the tax of the successfal miner is decreased one half. tax upon hats, caps, and bonnets, has been teduced' from. fiye to two per cent. The ‘tax upon leather of all descriptions is reduced one half, and similar reductions have been made upon woolen goods, with @ discrimination im favor of home manu. . fagtazes: Some-of the oppressive means for the collection. of taxes from.delinquent manufacturers have also been changed.— The penalty for not making returns has been reduced from ten to five-per cent. for . thefims@month and one per cent. addi-. tional for ench succeeding month the tax" remains unpaid. Before the additional tax was added after the 10thof the month, and frequently worked » severe hardship. In speaking of the injustice of the old rule, the Commissioner says: “In some instances large manufacturers, punctual usually in. theft payments, from the failure of amail, or the unexpected absence of a clerk, have been subjected to the payment of several thousand dollars.” ‘This modification will) benefit; every manufacturer in the county. Over.one hundred articles heretofore paying duty, and which are necessary touvery individual of the community, have been ttiide Giitirely exempt.’ We have endeayored to point out. some of the leading fea. turewof.the new law, amd the immense’ benefit which will resalt to all classes of . citizens wrt readily seen.
