Down, March 1O.--In accordance
with an invitation extended by Mr..
Hutson, chairman of tho committee
having In charge the bill prepared in
the interest OF farmers providing for
equal taxation, the chamber Of the
House OF Representatives was crowd
ed. So
Mr.. Hutsen opened the meeting and
introduced Alexander Fulton, Esq who
said that he represented the farmers
and the question OF equal taxation.
Many farmers, on account of the un-
iitableness of their farms, have been
obliged to try their chances at some
thing else. One year ago they began
to look araund for q remedy, They
found that the farmers paid IS per cent
OF all the taxes, while Investments are
not paying taxes in proportion TO their
value. The investors get good returns
but the farmers barely get enough to
keep their families. He then proceeded
to explain how under the proposed law
tho farmer and investor would be made
to bear the burden OF taxation more
equally.
They should be, said he. but one
assessment, instead of three. The
proposition of the bill was TO divide
the matter of taxation into three parts.
The first was to assess all paying in
vestments honestly and properly
Second, that there lie an offset for n
man who is in debt, and that he be
assessed only for what he owns.
Third, that whom there is mortgage
on farm the holder of the mortgage
shall pay tax upon the actual owner
ship he still has in the property.
He commended that IL these principles
We're adopted. the burdens OF the farm
ers would be lessened and the taxes
reduced from 40 TO % cents on the 500.
Mr.. Fulton spoke for over half an hour
and made mastery address.
lie was followed by William L. Case
OF FELTON,, who said:
Everything owned by the farmer,
even to his stock is taxed, and com
PEELED to contribute to the support of
State government. On the other hand
the owners OF stocks. bonds and NOR
cages, representative hundreds of
thousands of dollars reap the benefit
from their Investments but pay no tax
to the State. In closing he made an
earnest appeal TO have the bill adopted
and q law enacted based upon the
principle of Justice to all
Addresses were also made by s. W.
Slaymaker. of Camden, and j. q.
Brown, both of whom contended that
the present system of taxation, was
unjust and wrong. When these gem
tlemen closed the meeting adjourned.
