THE Chicago News, which has been
doing so much good for the single AK
cause in Illinois, is out against the per
sonal property lax Itsays:
The personal property tax is fatuous,
and it ought TO be polished. 1t is
farce in the cities, and d most unjust
imposition in the country. where its dis
couragin~ effects are most rrievously
felt. The assessors can not possibly
assess i; with even approximate fair
ness; and. as 2 matter Of plain fact, they
do not attempt SO TO DO. They far more
frequently use ii as =. cub for The pun
ishment Of their political enemies than
as means OF justice, and 1t has titus

Bur il SAWS that the personal property
tax is "a fixed fact, which can not be re-
moved until the State Constitution is
amended. The News calls on the peo-
pie TO take up the agitation of the CUES
Jie2 with a view to the election OF a
Legislature in 1891 which will prepare
such an amendment as viii make il
possible to abolish the personal property
tax. The Chicago single tax men have
been fighting on this line for a long
time; and now that the Chicago News
has decided to assist them the road to
success is clear.
