tics AS long as the fiscal power OF the
state chiefly depended or the upper
classes OF. society, progressive taxation
had little chance of acceptance 1t is
viewed with great favor now that po-
litieal power has shifted to the great
body OF the working classes No one
can be blind to the possible danger Of
the principle of graduation. A gradu-
ated tax on realized wealth has no well
defined limits, and could be pushed by
irresponsible power TO the extent of
confiscation. Indeed. it has sometimes
been used for this purpose by eastern
despotiSms and by the revolutionary
Democracies of Europe. 1t is, there
fore, the bounden duty of all
rational governments to watch with
great care the growth of progressive
taxation. so that il may not exceed the
fair equities of contribution to the pur-.
poses of the state. 1t is impossible for
nations TO blind themselves to the
many loose theories of taxation advo-
ctated by the extreme section OF the
Socialists, or TO the wild rawlings OF
communists or Anarchists. The inc

Its True Value in Money.

From tho Ell Dorado Republican.
The annual discussion of our assess
ment and taxation law is more animat-
ed this year than usual. one assessor
going so far as to say that the taxes to
be collected upon all the personal pro-
perty in his township will not pay his
salary for making the assessment.
Our present law needs to be slightly
amended in three or four sections to
make it all right; but no legislature
seems adequate to the task of making
these amendments.
Section s of the present law requires
the township and city assessor to meet
on the 1st day of March of each year
and then agre upon an equal basis of
valuation of such property as they
may be called upon TO assess.
And there it stops. And right here
is the bottom and top of ali our taxa
ton troubles.
Section IS should be amended so as
to read:
(which basis shall be the true value
of such property in money"
This is all there is to it. And this is
all that is required.
The next amendment to the assess
ment and taxation law should be to
sections 73 and "a.
All bIdl IL really ItlulItu III THESE
sections, which provides for the meet
ing of the boards of equalization. is
that they shall equaliZe the entire re-
turns of the township and city assessor
so as to bring the valuation of all pro-
perty assessed 10 its true value in
money.
1t would be an easy matter for the
legislature to make these two amend
menrs, but how about the railways?
The state board OF equalization now
consists of the secretary OF state, aU-
ditor and treasurer. To this board
should be added the lieutenant COVER
nor and attorney general, making five
in all.
Section 20 should then be amended to
read as follows:
Section 90. q This board shall
then and there proceed to examine the
abstracts OF property assessed for taxa
ton in the seVral counties in the state
and the assessment of railway property
and shall equalize the same.
And cause all taxable property in the
state TO be assessed at its true value in
money.

ceased. The administration was weak
in that it had 10 inherent power to punish
for contempt-and every owner Of a long
range Winchester was continually insult
iEg the court But on dress parade
Cimarron territory shone, and its fame
was carried into the halls Of congress.
where SO much interest was manifested
that a member from Georgia--the Georg-
ians have learned something since those
days-made inquiry as to the number of
miles out from the California shore to the
island of No-Man'sLand. o. G.. Chase
was elected as the territory's delegate
to congress, and John Dale contested the
elction- Both went to Washington, where
the fight went merrily on all winter. But
Dale was not in it. Chase went around
with i big certificate of election on,
which was big red seal with a yard of
ribbon under it. Chase had nerve as
well as an election certificate with big
seal on IL. He made formal application
for a seat in the house of representatives
as the properly accredited delegate from
Cimarron territory, and forced a vote
upon his admission. Out of lso votes
cast, fifty eight were cast in favor of
seating Chase. The result was that an
organic act was passed through the house
for the creation of Oklahoma Territory.
and just as congress went out of existence
the act was killed in the senate and the
provision for opening Oklahoma was at
tached to the Indian appropriation bill.
We have always believed that the big red
seal that Chase carried down to Wash
ington did more to hasten action in Ok
lahoma matters than the years OF hard
work given to the cause by Dave Payne,
Bill Couch, Sam Croker and other Okla
homa boomers.

Income Tax in England.

The Review OF Reviews furnishes an
admirable condeSa ton 90 Lord Play

based on the principle that death
duties should be graduated in proper

According 10 its requirements an 81

owner is taxed per cent, s. being due

still Il farmer ought not to be criticized
if he should evince some skeDticism or
or refuse TO throw away his old piows
and replace them with the new-fangled
SubsOiler. AS for irrigation, every
body understands that if Kansas is
ever short on anything it is water.
The shortage is not so much in the
number Of inches of rainfall per annum
as a failure of rain at q critical time.
Even if there should be all the profit
in irrigation claimed, probably not to
exceed per cent of the lands of Kan
sas could be irrigated, by the turning
of streams, by the impounding of water
in dams and by power pumps all COM
