Taxpayers Should Consider Their
Burdens.

Legislation Facts Bear

ple's Money is wasted-Extravagant
Appropriations.
Appropriations
From the San Francisco Bulletin.

FROM bQ6 san fIduClSCO
Editor Bulletin: The second install
ment of taxes for the first the two fiscal
years beginning with the lst day of July,
1888, is now due, and must be paid before
the end of the present month OF April,
otherwise consequences Of loss and dam
age will ensue. Now is a good time to
consider of and concerning the heavy
burden under which the taxpayers of our
State are groaning in consequence OF
profigate legislation, and also to devise
q way for relief from the oppression.
which must, if continued, result in the
certain ruin of the farmers and agricult-
ural classes of our people. If the farmers
and all others who use the lands of the
country for the purposes Of livelihood
could be made to realize the danger which
is imminent by reason of excessive taxa
ton, they would, it is believed, rise in
their might and cast off the oppressive
load which from year to year is consum-
ing their substance. Now and in the
near future is the time TO act, and to act
effectively, to change the conditions dis
nlally full of promise of caIamltleS to the
toiling agriculturlsts OF the country. Our
industrial classes have long been, and
bond politicians, who are maintained by
an extravagant system of taxation, en-
acted at each session of the Legislature OF
this, one of the worst governed States OF
the American Union.
The population of California-men,
women and children-is estimated at
about 100000. Considering the terri
torial extent of the State, the amount of
land under cultivation, or otherwise in
use, is comparatively small; yet it is capa-
bic OF proof that our farmers are obliged
TO pay quite double the amount OF taxes
upon the real values of their holdings
that the taxpayers of other States are in
general obliged to pay upon like values.
Let US see how we stand. AT the last
session of our State Legislature there was
appropriated for the support of the State
Government for the two hscal years be-
ginning with the first day of July, 1893,
the sum of IS, Az, 900, or 81, ,2l2, 500 for each
of said fiscal years. 1t is lmpracticable
To set forth in detail here the items, in
Iull, of the entire sum of the appropria-
tions. The following are some OF them,
namely:
For insane aSylumS. ..-.............. D. ,51O,OOO

The way to get rid of tramps, which has
proved, is to make their food aud shelter az.
pend absolutely upon work Last winter,
the city of Baltimore rid itself Of all these
pests by refusing to give them place TO
sleep except on condition of their earning 1t.
The result was that when other cities were
overruu with tramps Baltimore was free OF
them, and thus relieved, the city turned its
attention TO :indiuE work for the deserving
unemployed. This work came so near to
paving for itself that only an insignificant
sum of money was required TO prevent actual
suffering. This interesting sociological re-
suit has, therefore, again demonstrated, that
ii Is the tramp-.he idlcr who does not want
work-that causes the decentralization in
time of distress, and prevents the involun-
tary idle from finding proper aid. very In
tcrcstlng aud complete explanation of THIS
experiment appears in the June number OF
