Miles (search for this): article 2
The exemption bill. The general exemption bill, as reported to the House on Saturday from the Military Committee, by Mr. Miles, is very much the same as heretofore as regards the classes, but is very marked in its restrictions and specifications. The clause in relation to the press is very materially altered, amounting almost to a revocation. It exempts "one editor of each newspaper being published at the time of the passage of this act and such practical printers and pressmen as said editor may certify on oath to be indispensable to the publication of such newspaper." The clause exempting the owner of "fifteen field hands" is repealed. The bill exempts ministers of religion in actual charge of congregations, who have not been engaged in buying and selling for profit. Physicians of "ten years continuous practice," who have not been buying and selling for profit. The exemption of teachers is restricted to colleges, theological seminaries and military academies.
