PRIVATE ENTERPRISES AND TAX
ALTON.

On the principle laid down in the mem.
orable decision Of the Supreme Court Of
the United States it is not probable that
the Charity Island people can obtain an
appropriation from the Levy Court
In the case of the Loan Association
against Topeka, 60 Wallace the court
said: TO lay with one hand the power
Of the government on the property Of the
citizen, and with the other to bestow it
on favored individuals to aid private
enterprises and build up private fortunes,
is none the less a robbery because It is
done under the form Of law and Is called
taxation"
The people of Topeka conceived the
prevalent fallacy that It is the Peoples
business to stimulate and encourage
private industry. The same old pleas
that mil and factories would furnish
employment for five hundred hands
each y that farmers would sell more pro-
duce; that merchants would have more
customers, and that the public convey
ances would be loaded with thrifty i'm
migrants, were used at Topeka They
are always used by the thrifty pro.
moter, who builds mills to employ five
hundred hands
All went well tin the tax collector ran
up against few hard headed and unpatri
otto citizens who refused to pay taxes TO
support private enterprises. They we're
bad men, OF course, men who did not
wish the city to prosper: men who did
not care whether the American work.
iugmen' starved or not: men who are
willing to have this country flooded
with the pauper-made goods Of Europe. %
But for all that, they stuck to their
rights aud said that they would not
submit to taxstlon for the support. es-
adjustment or stimulation Of private
enterprises.
The5 contested the case against the
patriotic and charitable promoters
through all the lower courts unsuccess-
fully. But, when the case came 10 the
