EscUchense con calma las observaciones
claras y exactisimas que vamos d ex-
poner.
Iace un lustro, Ell 1889, los cambios
sobre Espalla y sobre los Estados Cnidos
estaban nj 10y al 90, respectivamente.
Los azucareros y los cafeteros vivian con
holgura, atirmando que sus propieda-

sDe que modo Sc explica ese fen6me

Kill the Road Law.

The proposed road law, advocated by
some persons, mostly from Baltimore, be-
fore committee of the Legislature, is not
wanted by the people Of this state. If
Baltimore is so much interested in "hOme
rule let her attend to her owH municipal
ity and let the counties alone. The coun-
ties have to pay their own bills, and should
be allowed to regulate their own roads.
They do got want To be taxed to maintain
an ornamental engineering department in
Baltimore, which will deal in theories and
speculatieas, and will have to be paid when
called To any of the counties to do actual
and practical work Road making is well
understood, both us to construction and
materials, and 40 general law is asked by
the eonnties nor is AN engineering depart
alent wanted. This whole scheme origi-
aated with bicycle manufacturers, who
have enlisted in the scheme city bicycle
riders, who want smooth roads for Sunday
excursions in the country.
The Democratic advocate., 1894-02-17
Food for Thought.

Finance Commissioners Pratt and Spence,
of Baltimore, sent IA report TO the City
Council that was full of truth and food for
reflection. Some members of the Council
resented the presentation of the report as
out Of order ard beyond the authority Of
the Commissioners. BE that as it may,
the Commissioners told some wholesome
truths. They say that, disregarding the
financial depression and the fact that tax
alton is onerous, there is a clamor for costly
pavements, costly court house, costly
system of sewers increased appropriations
for public education, for the fire board and
for all sorts of purposes. While the peo-
pie do this. say the Commissioners, and
insist on appropriations, they then censure
the Mayor and Council for the high rate
of taxation and the ever increasing public
debt.
The Commissioners say, also, that the
system of public education has gone far
beyond what was intended, and there have
been added to the common schools gram
mer schools and college, manual train
ing school, and now is wanted school of
pedagogy.
The people of Baltimore should take up
this report and give it serious consideration.
And it would be well for the Maryland
Legislature to consider the financial de-
preston and the relief the people expect
from their acts this winter, before voting
appropriations of the public money.
The Democratic advocate., 1894-02-17
A senatorial colloquy.

While Senator Daniel of Virginia was speak
ing for the repeal of the federal election bill
last week Senator Frye of Maine interrupted
him several times, and free and easy colloquy
ensued.
The people of Virginia, Mr.. Daniel said.
would yainly try to please the Senator from
Maine so long as they voted the Democratic
ticket The Senator from Maine, he added
with much bitterness of manner, had said
that there were no precinct election frands
in Maine; there they only stole the Legisla-
lures.
'.That was Democratic steal" Senator
FRYE interposed.
''Oh of course" Senator Daniel said, sar-
casticaly; .of course it was q Democratic
steal The Senator never heard Of a steal
that was not a Democratic one.
ssThat is true Senator Frye asserted.
Perfectly so, and naturally so, said Mr.
Daniel ''He is as deaf as the old lady men
toned by Tom Hood, who bought an ear
trumpet And the very next day she heard
from her husband at Botany Bay Laughter
The Senator never heard of the Credit Mo
bilier business. Oh, no-he stuffed a whole
cotton counterpane in his ear so soon as
newsboy ran down the street with his news
papers. He never heard of Indian frauds nor
of star route frauds He only heard that
every Republican born is saint and that
every Democrat born is an imp. And | leave
the Senator in that happy state. He does
not need to be translated TO another and a
better world in order to enjoy the perfection
of happiness. Where ignorance is bliss It's
folly TO be wise There be is and he pur-
poses to remain.
All of the furniture factories in Grand
Rapids, Michigan, are now running on either
full or part time, and they have orders enough
10 keep them busy until July, when the next
semi animal furniture sale opens.

The Assessment Question.


Every member of the Legislature took
the following oath
81 do swear that / will support the
Constitution of the United States; and that
will be- faithful and bear true allegiance TO
the State Of Maryland, and support the Con
stitution and Laws thereof; aid that will, to
the best of my skill and judgment, diligently
and faithfully. without partiaiity or prejudice,
execute the office according to the Constitu-
ton aud Laws of this State.
That is the oath prescribed by the Con-
sritution. and here is what the Constitution
says in regard TO taxation--
EVERY person in the State, or person hold
ing properly therein, ought TO contribute his
nroportion of public taxes for the support oil
the Government, according to ms actual worm
in real or personal property.
In view of this oath and the constitu-
tionaI provision on taxation, it IS difficult
TO understand how member OF the
Legislature can coDscientiOusly vote for an
assessment bill that contains exemptions.
The Hayes bill, the very best, perhaps,
that has been presented, is full of exemp-
tions. Ii exempted mortgages, and when
the Senate added mortgages to the taxable
list. Mr. Hayes was much put out.
1t is quite certain that there will be no
assessment according to the Constitution.
Senator Hayes has been considered radical
by capital, yet he is favorable to large
plumber of exemptions, including mort
cages
If an assessment bill cannot be passed
that will increase the taxable basis, it would
be far better not 20 haye a new assessment.
There will be less discomfort from having
40 assessment az all than there will be in
having one that taxes only what is now
taxed. Very few persons will consent to
an increase on real estate. The most of
them are looking to reduction OF assess
ment A decreased basis means an in-
creased tax rate, aud there will be an IN
creased rate if all personal property Is not
listed add taxed All the untaYed per
sonality is not in Baltimore. ia every
county in the state, nearly, there are hun
areds of persons counted wealthy whose
assessment bears no just proportion to their
reputed wealth. Some of this wealth is
in bank stocks that are taxed, bat much
more Of it is in mortgages and other secur-
tiles that are not taxed. IL these we're added
TO the assessable basis there c0uld be a
decrease in taxation. notwithstanding
decrease in real estate values. lfthey are
not added, it would be better not TO have
any assessment 1t will be useless to ex-
pend from $4,000 10 Sl2,0d0 in each
county for an assessment unless all prop
erly is to be listed and taxed
The Democratic advocate., 1894-02-17
The rax-podger.

The Baltimore Tax -Dodger is very in
consistent fellow In attacking the Hayes
bill he made it appear that Baltimore was
pauper community, dependent on Boston,
New York and Philadelphia capital for
everything. If the Hayes bill is passed no
more capital from those cities would seek
investment in the Monumental City. he
says, and all that has been invested would
be withdrawn. When the mortgage tax
amendment was added to the bill, the Tax
Dodger said the amendment would ruin
the counties, as Baltimore capital invested
in farm mortgages would be Withdrawn,
and no more would be loaned TO the rurals
According to the Tax-DOdger, Baltimore
is poor or rich, to suit circumstances.
There is far more rural capital in Balti-
more enterprises than there is city capital
in rural mortgages. In fact very little
Baltimore capital is invested in mortgages
outside of Baltimore, except close to the city.
There is large amount capital from Har-
ford, Baltimore, Carroll, Frederick, Wash
ington and Howard counties in Baltimore
enterprises Carroll, alone, has about
million dollars invested there Sixty y-nine
thousand dollars Of the stock of one bank is
held is this county, and some of the stock
of nearly every bank in the city is held
here. Carroll capital is also invested in
deposit and trust companies, in railroads,
in all sorts of enterprises, and in real es-
tate.
The rurals are not paupers, and if Bal
timore insists in maintaining an unequal
assessment rural capital may be withdrawn
from there. The exemption of manufac-
turing plant makes the burden on other
property more onerous, and every exemp-
tion is weighing heavily on reality.
The counties of Maryland only ask for
an assessment law. in accordance with the
constitution law that will assess all
property, real and personal. Let us have
a Just law and the counties can supply
capital to take the place of that the Yam
KEGS withdraw
