Tariff Talk The Income Tax From The Philadelphia Inquirer
The article argues against adopting a tax driven by perjury and un-American ideals. It defends the federal plan of revenue through internal taxes on domestic production and duties on imports, praising the existing system for its prosperity and urging against changing to a tax like that of England.

Plan for a tax on undistributed earnings of corporations
The plan favors adoption for multiple reasons including constituting a preferable tax to income or excess taxes, generating sufficient revenue, and protecting corporate holders from conflicting state laws. Public opinion and Republican stance on House rates favor a tariff revision aligned with Taft's canvass, while there is cautious support across papers for a revival of the Payne-like tariff schedules though details may vary.
