EDITOR REPUBLICAS-My attention is
attracted by an article in your paper o.
I'D inst. referring to a statement con,
tanned in the Sedalia Democrat oil recen,

Sl,531 900 in live mortgages existing in
fettis county, yet that only the sum OF
S339. 500 IN money, bonds and notes is
actually returned IN that county for taxa
ton. The interesting question Gas you
very ~pertlnently remark) is, why are
not the remaining th~ree-iourths returned
also ?"

1t must be admitted tina we have but
little to hope from the Legislature of this
state. composed. as it is. in general, of
those who are by Nc mean distinguished

But 1t IS not too much to say that il the
people of the state, the farmers and
landowners. now groaning under the
burden Of unequal taxation, whose
property beng lin sight is always
taxed, could be aroused to the impor-
lance OF securing the passage of some
law which would make taxation Uniform

ry. perhaps better Legislative material
than usual could be secured for our next
general assembly.
Various plans might be suggested to
remedy the evil to which you make al
fusion; but have thought OF one which
possibly may effect the end desired. viz,
the suojection OF all property to its equal
burden OF taxation. As to land and
'tier visible property their escape from
the assessor is impossible; but the
problem is to let no prumissory note es-
