PIT NONE BIT TRUSTWORTHY MEN on

Owing to the fact that the real estate ap-
praisal had to be passed upon by the State
Equalizing Board, the tax returns for this
the second year of the so-caled new law"
are not yet accessible to the public but
from the town summaries, as published
from time to time in the local newspapers,
there is little reason to doubt that the law
has worked fully us well this year as last.
In some of the towns the assessed valuation
is larger than last year in very many of
them ii remains at substantially the same
figures and in II comparatively insignificant
number, 50 far as our observation has extend
ed ii has shrunken to greater or less ex-
tent. On the whole the indications
are that the aggregate grand list of the State
will be fully as large as last year. II such
proves to he the case-and we have every
reason to believe that it Wilt will be graf
flying evidence of the public spirit of the
citizens of our State-of their regard for the
law and of their willingness to contribute to
the expense of government when it is equit.
ably divided. Many were the prophecies, last
year. that the tax law would be effective for
that time, but that the second year it would
be evaded and dsobcyed ms generally and
| successfully as vas its predecessor on the
statute book. But thanks chiefly To an
aroused and vigilant public sentiment, such

has by no means been the case. The law has
been almost been universally respected and
obeyed and it has found not only general,
but honest obedience. The lists furnished
have been accurate and truthful and in
every respect the law has been found quite
adequate for the enforcement Of lis pur-
poses. This condition of things is n re-
markable instance of the tremendous power
of public opinion. In its essentials the new
law really differs but little from the old. 1t
is based on no new principle of taxation. II
enac,s no sweeping changes. Such as it is,
1t was at the outset n mere experiment, But
the people made up their minds it was worth
a thorough trial, and such they determined
to give it and so powerful sentiment was
created that but few were bold enough to stand
up before it. The development of this scnti-
mcnt, it is but jus, to add, was very largely
due to the press of the State. With few
exceptions the State papers were active and
untiring in explaining and advocating the
law and urging its enforcement and its graf
