* 16th Amendment ratified
* Income tax in the United States starts
This 10 page newspaper one column headlines on the front page that include: "PROVISION FOR TAX INCOME IS PART OF CONSTITUTION", "Senator Brown's Amendment to Fundamental Law is Ratified by Thirty-Seven States", "Wyoming Puts In Across Line" and more.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Light browning with some margin wear and tear. Should be handled with care.
wikipedia notes: The federal government of the United States imposes a progressive tax on the taxable income of individuals, partnerships, companies, corporations, trusts, decedents' estates, and certain bankruptcy estates. Some state and municipal governments also impose income taxes. The first Federal income tax was imposed (under Article I, section 8, clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution) during the Civil War, then again in the 1890s, and again after the Sixteenth Amendment was ratified in 1913.
