There is wife Of 10 years standing

1t Is all due 10 a fireman's gentle way of
misleading her. The woman lived in
Brooklyn, when her house caught fire
one night, and she escaped with the
youngest child, sealskin sack and
silk dress That's all. Her older boy
was Ill the lower story of the house when
the fire broke out. with its nurse, and
when the woman was taken into neigh
boring residence n tender hearted fire
man followed and broke the news gently
to her that this boy had been burned
and lost in the flames. The mother was
crazed with grief. She wore a diamond
pin at her throat, a wedding ring and
diamond engagement ring on her left
hand, and on her right another dia-
mond. IN the first wave of delirium she
rushed into the street, tore off the pin
at her throat, tore off all her rings and
tossed them away. The child wasn't
burned, but the young woman never
found her rings, and now she wishes the
fireman had waited till he knew what
he was talking about. New York Adj

no way could the proportion OF taxa
tlon now torne by real estate be re.
lieved SO efiectually as by the adop.
ton Of a full valuation, and In con.
nection Herewith cOrrespondingly
low rates to he rlgidly adhered to.
The cash value being the utmost
limit to which the assessor could
assess real estate, low rates would
compel the discovery and the assess.
ment Of large amounts Of personal
property which have hitherto either
wholly escaped taxation or which
have been but lightly assessed in
comparison with real estate. Hence
the provisions OF such q change as
here proposed throughout are based
upon and contemplate the valuation
OF property according to law ut its
fair cash value.
In the drafting OF such q law as IL
here proposed 1t seems plainly visible
that the law governing the State
Board OF Equalization must Of neces.
sity be radically amended or the
board abolished. In case OF its abo.
lition, ! would suggest as substi'
tute State Board OF Tax Commits
sloners to be appointed by the Gov
ernor, say, consisting OF four persons,
not more than two from any political
party, and the Auditor Of the State
as an ex.Ofiicio member. and whose
duties should be defined In the law.
or all that has been said, how arc
the required results to be accom-
pllshed? ! see but one course for the
taxpayers to pursue. That Is, IL
elect thoughtful, painstaking and
honest representatives to the State
Senate and House at the next fall
election, as such change In the
present law will be opposed. Let the
people of this city and county see t.
1t that vast improvement is made
in the Cook County delegation. II
this can be done, good results must
follow, not only In the matter OF tax
legislation, but In many other in
stances. Let us see to 1t that a dele.
cation is sent to Springfield who will
not pigeon.hole this bill, as was done
by the last Legislature with some OF
the most important measures to the
city of Chicago that were presented
at that session.

larry when applying the same clause
to an effort to raise tracks In tho
West Division Of the city, About
the time these cases will be tested in

aud otherwise, that such a clause
would be ruinous to the taxpayers,
and that the railroads should be com

"Never mind the West Side"
Let US send to the Legislature a
delegation that will not be influenced

Last year was the third time such a
bill was presented and killed. With
such authority, the city Of Chicago,

sonal property by individuals, b..
lieving that the requirement OF an
oath to q schedule IL generally In.
effectual In obtaining q disclosure Of
property, would omit such require.
ment. believe such requirement to
be debauching to the conscience and
subversive OF the public morals, q
school for perjury promoted by law.
With the INSCRIPTIONS 1t imparts no
additional verify whatever to the
schedule, and 1t Is wrong and oppres.
sive tn the honest Taxpayer that he
should he compelled to take upon his
conscience an obligation which nc
well understands Is disregarded as a
rule by Others. Such requirement
has nowhere been found effective In
the disclosure OF property that the
assessor could not have otherwise
discovered. Thus disposing OF the
requirements Of the oath let 1t be
done away with, and let there be
substituted a substantial penalty for
false schedule.
The states Attorney should re.
ceive q substantial fee for the con.
viction Of the Assessor or taxpayer
Of dishonest assessments or false re.

County Assessor, free from township
Jealousy, acting for the whole county,
with long term more time In each
year, better equipped for finding and
valuing property, better paid and
more conspicuous In the eye OF the
people, ought to and, I believe, will
do his work better than 1t Is being
done by Township Assessors. This
condensed system would be q vast
saving 10 expense to the taxpayers.
In all that / have said In support
OF change from the present mode OF
assessment and valuations, l am not
unmindful that, without q saving
clause, there would not be an end OF
extravaganza with the present per-
centum ON valuations. Also having
said so much about swelling the reve.
nue. and inducing higher assessments,
1t must be Incumbent to provide pro
lection to the taxpayers from
the rapacity Of unprincipled
tax consumers. In case such
law should be proposed, OF
course the power OF municipalities tt
incur Indebtedness should be limited
from two to three per cent. OF the
assessed valuation instead Of five, as
now. 1t would also he necessary
that taxation be limited for county,
city, and educational purposes tC
quite reduced percentage from
what they are at present As both
the constitutional and statutory limi.
tations upon rates OF taxation now
existing have been based upon the
recognized low valuations which have
hitherto prevailed, II Is manifest
that, II valuations are raised, the
rates should be c0rrespondingly re-
duced, and certainly no provision
should be allowed to go into force
looking to the enforcement OF higher
valuation by assessors unless accom-
panied by equally explicit restric.
tions making corresponding reduc'
tions 10 the rates OF taxation. AMI
] am forced to the conclusion that In
