The people who think the listing bill
is going to increase the amount of per-
sonal property returned for taxation are
1aboring under delusion. Illinois has
the most drastric law of this kind to be
found in the country. The returns have
to be sworn to and there are heavy penal
ties for failure to list and for listing in
correctly. Yet the personal property re-
turned after the law had been in operation
year began to fall and continued to fall
steadily for ten years-and those ten years
covered a period in which the country
enjoyed unparalleled prosperity. The
only people seriously affected by it were
widows and orphans whose estates were
in the hands of trustees and persons of
small means, whose knowledge of the de-
vices by which property can be covered
up was slight. The rich escaped. This
result has always followed this kind of
legislation wherever tried. The flies
have been caught, the wasps have bro
ken through and escaped.
The Portland daily press., 1893-03-20

One would think that a glance at the
figures submitted by the savings bank
managers of this state, showing the vast
amount of accumulations in our savings
institutions and the very large proper
ton that belong to people of small
means would render our Senators and
Representatives exceedingly cautious
about legislation designed to affect the
investments of these millions. A serious
mistake in the selection of securities
would precipitate widespread disaster
a disaster that would recoil with tremen-
dous force upon the people responsible
for it. There has been no
legislation proposed at Augusta
this winter that should have re-
eived more care and thoughtfulness.
more study as to its possible effect than
the legislation affecting savings banks.
Yet it is the one piece of Legislation above
all others in which the opinions of people
most competent to udge OF its effect
have been the most completely disre-
garded. TIE great majority of savings
bank managers have strongly opposed
the discriminating tax on the ground
that its tendency would be to weaken the
security of the deposilors, but their opin-
ions have been utterly disregarded and
the tax imposed at the demand, not of
the people who own the money, but of
people who want to borrow it.

the selectmen could count the votes
out of sight of the people in the room,
though undoubtedly that was natural
construction to put upon the language
used. What we meant to say was that
the selectmen were under no obligation
to submit the counting to the watching
of people specially selected for that
purpose. There is NO doubt that the
counting could only be legally done in
the presence and the sight of the people
in the voting room. And that is just as
true under the Australian system as it
was under the old system. The thing
that we were trying to point out was that
the Australian system withdraws none
of the safeguards that surrounded the
count before, and that, therefore, to at
tribute the miscounting in Ward direct
ly or indirectly to the Australian ballot
law was erroneous. AS matter of fact,
the arrangement Of the voting room I'M
der the Australian system really gives
better opportunity for that general
watching which the constitution and the
laws provide for than was possible under
the old system. When the counting was
done behind big desk, as was the case
in our ward rooms under the old system,
only comparatively few could watch it,
while now almost everybody in the room
can watch it unless the warden take spe
cial pains to withdraw into remote cor
ner of the enclosed space.

1t would seem to be about time for
Mr.. Thomas FL. Harper to resign the Of
flee which he holds in Ward /. No mat
ter whether his miscounting was inten-
tional or unintentional, it shows that he
is an improper person to have charge Of
the business of receiving, sorting and
counting the votes. Yet, under the law,
unless he resigns, this duty must again
devolve upon him, unless the voters rise
en- masse and take him out of the box by
violence. 1t is evidently for the public
interest that Mr.. Harper resign forth
with, and we are inclined to think it is

It is to be hoped that no future city
government will grant permission to haul
a building through any of the principal
streets of this city. The experience of
the past week ought to put an end to
that business. The building that is now
journeying towards Libby's Corner rep
resents an original investment of $40, and
to enable the owner to convey this forty
dollar shanty to Libby's corner the
people of Portland have been subjected
to the great inconvenience of having one
of their principal streets blocked for
days, people travelling in carriages have
been exposed to considerable danger, the
telephone service has been interrupted,
trees have been mutilated, and the life
and limb of a good many persons have
been put in jeopardy, and no benefit at
all commensurate with the trouble and
inconvenience caused has been con-
ferred upon anybody. Indeed it is
doubtful if any benefit at all has been
conferred. For the money expended it
is probable that better building could
have been erected at Libby's Corner than
this one will be when it gets there. The
contractor who is moving the building
will be money out of pocket, and the
various people who have been drawn in
from the surrounding country to assist in
the performance could have more profit
ably occupied their time at home. A
large number of small boys have I'M
doubtedly derived good deal of pleas
ure from the performance and some bene-
fit in the way of lung expansion, but less
costly methods of promoting their well
fare can undoubtedly be devised.
