mercial uses, and all contributing hand
some rentals to the church. Are these
numbered in the list of incomes which,
according to Mr.. Forman, are being wrong.
fully exempted from taxation, thereby in.
creasing his burden and the burden Of
every other citizen one-half? Thisis clear.
~ very serious question. 1t has already
| been preached in certain conclayes of the
Property Holders Assocation-of which
body Mr.. Forman is naturally a prom
inent member-that the exemption of
church property is an evil in itself and an
injustice to the taxpaying community.
The theory has found expression and no
little advocacy that the present system
has only to be carried far enough to
render it impossible for any but church
OF religious society to own real estate or
possess an income. We never heard the
particulars of the controversy, but it has
been our idea that Mr.. Forman being a
person of great zeal and consequence in
the Democratic party-the party which is
rendering such signal service to the Pope
of Rome in every part Of the United
States-would be found among the most
effective opponents of proposition to
wrest from the Roman Church a privilege
it has enjoyed so long and used so ably to
its own benefit.
And such, indeed, may really be the
case. Yet it would seem from the terms
of Mr.. Forman's petition that ne feels and
resents the burden which the Roman al
lance imposes upon individuals, and that
he is determined to denounce as an in
dividual the fruits of policy which he
promotes and advocates as a statesman.
1t would be very clever arrangement in
deed if the property holding element of
the Democracy could secure in their per-
sonal capacity the repeal of laws objec-
tionable and injurious to their pockets,
and yet leave the party free to keep the
allegiance of constituency so extremely
useful on election day. And if Mr.. For
man succeeds in accomplishing this end,
we have no doubt that he will earn and
enjoy the gratitude of those Democrats
who are very fond of the constituency
without especially admiring the laws.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-10-15
CONSIDERING AGAINST ROME,

Looking more carefully over the able
petition filed in Justice Houston's Court
by MIR. B. Il. Forman, We find that it con-
tains matter for even graver consideration
than We have already given it. To those
who value literature for its intrinsic beau
ties, and who regard the glory of fame as
of more worth than present welfare, of
course, the aesthetic quality of Mr.. For
mans work will appeal most powerfully;
but with those who cling to the sordid
things of liie-and we regret that candor
compels US to concede their class the ma
jority-that part of Mr.. Forman's produc-
ton bearing on practical questions will
prove prominently interesting. To this
latter sentiment, therefore, we defer lust
now, though not wishing to defile the
lofty and gracious loneliness of poesy with
the selfish and gross associations, we have
devoted separate article to its interests.
Among the reasons urged why Mr.. For
mans property on Olympia street should
not be delivered up to Tax Collector Jou-
bert, the following is notable and signifi-
can't We extract from the petition:
Your petitioner shows article 1Is of the
Louisiana constitution requires taxation to
be equal and uniform throughout the State.
and all property shall be taxed in proper.
ton to its value;" that income and personal
property in this State is by the assessors
and tax collectors exempted IRON the assess.
ment rolls to the amount of $4,000 900 or
10000, 900 willfully and deliberately omit
ted in violation of the above article of the
constitution, by means whereof the rate of
taxation on the real estate of petitioner is
increased one-half, and the entire assess.
ment rolls are null and void
Without stopping to explain how very
glad we are to hear of so much wealth
being left to this impoverished and down.
trodden State. we hasten to inquire what
class of income and personal property
Mr.. Forman refers to as being willfully
exempt by the authorities. We are aware
that in pursuance of custom founded
by the Democratic party many years be-
fore carpetbaggers were ever heard Of,
the property Of churches, religious cor
porations, etc., has been held free from
taxation, and we know, also, that taking
advantage OF this indulgence, many of the
pious fraternities have managed to accu-
mulate large estates, paying vast revenues,
and adding immensely to the wealth and
power Of the owners. Witness the rows
Of stores near Magazine Market, and in
other quarters Of the city; the Caller
Court property, on Csrondelet street. etc. J;

lie societies; al devoted to protAne com

on the law. If it has in its collective or
by the School Board. That body stands
individual capacity committed any illegal
act the courts are open. There have
been Governors impeached, Auditors and
Treasurers investigated; the same power
is open to any complainants against any
official. Let any parties who choose to
take the responsibility adopt legal means
to test the inquiry. We protest against
the Louisiana logic of assuming the
charge to be verdict, and enforcing the
sentence before serving the summons.
This assault upon the School Board is
for political effect. 1t will 60 into
the country press as a fragrant official
offense, as an admission of profigacy on
the part of the School Board, of incom-
potency as to the teachers, and of ignor-
ance in the schools. The charges should
be presented and proved or withdrawn.
1t is not right to throw such imputations
upon the Republican party as campaign
document, and assume that our plea to
the jurisdiction of the clubs is an admis-
sion of guilt upon the part of the School
Board. The compliments should come
forward with their charges, specifications
and proof or abandon charge which has
become nothing better than defamation.
If the accusers choose to try the Sindbad
relief and, like Hans Breitman, give a
hardy" we have no doubt it might have a
better effect in inducing the members to
throw up their commissions than the revo-
lutionary menaces which we have heard.
It certainly could not have worse effect.
Try Sindbad's ready relief.
