We are informed by Republican
members of the Farmers Alliance
that things are not as harmonious in
some subordinate lodges as they
might be over the political situation
Some Republicans say that it is con
trarY to the principles Of the State
and National Alliance to compel
members to sever their connection
from any church or party as the Al
lance IS not to interfere with ones
politics or religion, and it is suspect
ed that the new party movement is
urged on by Democrats and Union
LabOrites to capture Republicans es-
pecially in strong Republican counties
or districts, while in Democratic or
Union Labor localities they are not
proposing to sever their connection
with the aforesaid organizations.

Rail Road Taxation for School
Purposes.

On our rounds through Mound
township the question was asked,
Glow do you propose to appOrbiOn
the railsOad tax for school purposes
in case a law should be passed en-
aiding districts to share in the ben
efits from rail road taXes?"
The objection was raised that some
districts are partly in one township,
and partly in another, and that 1t will
be unfair to send a part Of our taxes
to help educate children whose par
ents DO not help to pay off the bonds,
which are In many cases voted to aid
in constructing said rail roads.
Now if it were possible for the dis
tricts receiving school benefits to pay
in proportion to their benefits all
would be we'll. But they pay in pro-
portion to their assessment, just the
same as other districts, and as there
is no difference in the assessment of
property in the rural townships only
that based upon difference of quality,
there Is a manifest injustice in the
matter of taxation for school pur-
/ poses.
We will not be content with assert
ing this fact but will give some figur-
es which will show that this is so, and
at the same time suggest a method
/ by which justice can be done.
( Mound township is an example OF
townships that voted aid to construct
/ a road, and is therefore a legitimate
+ basis for illustrating this matter
J Let 1t be remembered that we all
! pay taxes to iqUidate those bonds,
and then no fair minded man VIII &C
cuse US of arguing unjustly.
Assuming then that the present as
sessment be left unchanged by the
Board of Equalization, we can figure
on the amount, which is S7l.29O, as &
basis from which to appOrtiOn the
rail road valuation.
In Mound township are the follow
I ing districts and parts Of districts
whose taxpayers pay on the amounts
Of property as follows: District 43
IS18,2 72; District 45, SO, 257; Distric
AZ, 1892; District 63, g, 966; Distric
! IS, S12,257; District 81, So, ga, aRC
! District 127, ST., 222, making an ag
! gregate Of ST., 290.
The Rock Island railroad in Mound
township is assessed at 81, 78G. A.
/ about ali this is used for the benei
of Districts A3, 127, and IS, their bur
/ den for school purposes Is quite light
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1890-05-16

No. 122 voted ten mills last year,
while No. rs. which is the second in
wealth and has a larger amount of
taxable property had to vote fifteen
mills.
For the purpose for which this arti-
Gle is intended, we may use round
numbers IN values, and say that the
property valuation is $4,000, and
the rail road valuation $4,000. Then
we will assume that No. 43 pays tax
on SIS, 900, and should, GSl 1t pays
rail road tao O7eJg Oh that amount,
have benefit from only that much. 1t
should then be allowed benefits from
1872 or Ia Of 1900 railroad vRlu-
alton which would be $40, 500. No.
As pays on say $4,000 railroad valu-
alton, and should receive 1912 of
80, 600 which is over S., 1873. No. At
pays on SIS, GOO and should receive 5-72
Of $4,000 which Is nearly $2,9I7.
No. So pays on $4,000 and should re-
ceive A-72 of $40, 000 which is a little
over 50, 1913. No. IS pays on $4,000,
and should receive 1912 Of $40, 600
which is $1,000. No. 81 pays on $1O,-
600, and should receive 1912 OF $40, >
600 or SIS, 1913, and No. 127 with $11,-
coo sheuld receive HIP Of $40, 900,
which is over $6.416.
Remember we have dealt In round
numbers, and these are not exact fig
uFes, but they are approximate, and
! do very well to explain our theory,
which IS a pro-rata appOrtionment to
all the districts In proportion to the
valuation on which they are assessed
for railroad purposes.
Under this arrangement the dis
] trict valuations would be as follows:
/ No. 43, SOS, 500; No. IS. S15,633; No.
| Al, S7,917; No. 63. 81, 1888; No. rs, $19,-
/ GOO; No 81, $I5,833, and No. l27,
! ST., 416.
The Districts whose valuation IS
low are only partly in this township
/ AS the Districts are now formed PEG
/ pie whose school houses are IN other
townships live In Mound, but as they
assist to pay rail road bonds, is it any
more than fair that they should re
celve their part Of the benefits? Thls
is an outline Of our theory, and We
submit It TO all candid voters. auC
ask, is it not fair PED.

McNay's Attempt to Defend Po.
liticai CrOOkedness.

Last week with a flourish of trump
cts and an apparent honest air, the
Dispatch made a weak attempt to
break the force Of our charge that
the 'EfOur delegate scheme was con
ceived and executed in the interest of
Hanback,. First the Dispatch says
that George A. Spaulding made a
motion to allow but two delegates to
each township and that O. W. Hull
amended it by making it four. Now
right here is where McNay cunning
" endeavors to deceive his readers.
Mr.. Spaulding moved to first allow
two delegates AT LARGE to each town
ship, and then allow the proper ratio
IN addition to the two at large. Mr..
Spaulding spoke earnestly against
the unrepublican scheme of giving
four votes to each and every town
ship and Of disregarding the usual
rule of selecting delegates in the
proper ratio based on the number Of
Republican votes pOlled in each town
ship.
The Dispatch next charges Dague
with making another fragrant de
parture from the path Of veTacity IN
stating that the Plum township eau
Gus was composed of Mr.. Beedy, DR..
Pratt, Mr.. Hays and two newspaper
men from KirWin'' The HERALD of
fers as a witness to prove the substan-
tial correctness of our statement Mr..
Smith the County Alliance Lecturer
who so stated to US at the BisselI
House In the presence of several
persons.
Next 1IcNay says;
ssOf all the untenable assertions in which sir
Dague INDUCES, that regarding Mai. DFGmhilleI
Of TOWanda, is the most inGefensibie and reck
less eZhi bitiOn Of spleen, etc. The Mayor is
bona dde resident Of T0Wanda township, etc
Now the HERALD's reason for say
ing that Mai. Drumhiller is not a res
ident of ToWanda is that Township
Assessor n. w. Smith of TOwanda
says that the Major is not a bona-fde
citizen OF that township and he die
not allow him the exemptions as
resident Of the township. This fac
Is also cOrrObOrsted by the statemen
Of County Clerk Barnes. Mai
IDEumhiller owns land In ToWandl
but is a resident Of Logan, and haC
mo more right to cast four votes II

It appears that Dague printed the
facts and it is the Dispatch editor
who IS not only guilty of having con
spired III back rooms to beat John
B3isselI out Of the delegates Of Phil
lips county by unrepublican and IN
fair methods, but has since attempted
to defend his crooked work by pub
fishing statements not true. That
four delegate scheme was a shabby
political trick and even 1IcNay's sub
lime assurance cannot make anything
else of If.

The Tax on Mortgages.

SUFFOLK. Va, January 6, 1890.
The communication of Mr.. Magruder in
the Dispatch one day last week strikes at
an evil which demands remedy at tho
hands of this Legislature. Still, | think
that tho remedy proposed by Mr.. Magruder,
although II looks equitable will not work
well if put into practical operation. He
proposes TO let a property-OwneT deduct
the amount of any mortgage that may be
on his property from the assessed value
thereof and pay taxes on the remainder.
This would do hut for the fact that the
assessed value Of great deal of property
is lcss than It Is mortgaged fOr-at least
that IL the case in Suffolk.
To illustrate. A certain vacant lot in this
town was assessed last year Mt 81 900. The
owner being III need of some money hOr-
rowed 81 800 on it, and n short while after
wards sold less than one fourth of IL for
81 900.
Now. if Mr. Magruder's plan was in vogue,
the owner of this lot would have escaped
taxation altogether. as he would have owed
$500 more on it than the lot was assessed at.
Now, for my plan: Let the Legislature
pass "A law eXempting from State and mu-
nicipal taxation all money loaned on real
estate. and let il do this at once before the
new assessment of land is made. Then let
the land be assessed at something like
what IL is worth and the increased revenue
from il will more than make up any loss
which the State may sustain by reason OF
tho above exemption. At FIRST sight this
may look like relieving the capitalists aud
money. lenders of the State-a class which
needs relief less than the land-owners-but
little reflection will show that the effect
of the law will he exactly the opposite.
There will be a rush of money seeking IN
yestments secured by mortgage on real es-
tate. and instead of the landowner being
the one who is looking around Tor loan
the capitalist will be the man who IL doing
the looking around. This state OF affairs
will; reduce the rate of interest TO the Dor
rover more than the taxes he will have TO
nav, and make il much easier Tor him TO
get money when he wants Il, so that | be-
heve the debtor class, to which | unfortu-
nately belong, will be substantially bene-
flied Many of the money-lenders. IN order
TO evade the usrry laws. stipulate that the
borrower shall pay the taxes anyhow. and
when this is done in the cities and towns
| IL makes a high rate of interest.
Again: Much OF the personal property IN
| the form of notes and bonds and money in
bank escapes taxation through the failure
| of the owners 10 list it. so that the loss of
revenue to the State and to the cities and
| towns will, not he as great rs IL may at first
| sight appear. | believe II this plan IL
| adopted that the rate of interest on real es-
tate loans will be down to o per cent. IN
less than year.
Many other reasons might be given in
! favor Of such a law. but this letter is doubt
! less as long one as you will care to pub
lish. SUFFOLK.
