Reform in Taxation.

Just why farmers and other real es-
tate owners should be so unjustly OPP
pressed by the tax laws of Vermont
passes comprehension. Asarule, they
are as good citizens and contribute as
much toward the welfare of the COM
munity as those who do not own a
foot Of land. Under present condi-
tions, too, they are not SO affiuent that
the other class need be unduly jealous
of them and compel them to pay SO
large portion Of the revenues. Es-
pecially is this true Of farmers, both
those who own their farms and those
who do not. The steady depreciation
in farm property of the last twenty
years gives no excuse for laying on
the heavy burden of taxation that such
property has to bear.
Without doubt farm property is
over-valued by listers. There seems
no remedy for this except to elect
listers with brains enough to know
that Vermont farms are dirt-cheap
and backbone enough to brave the
babel that would come from holders
Of personal property when they were
compelled to pay their just proportion.
The law is not responsible forthe lack
of judgment or grit of the listing
boards.
But the law is responsible for other
great iniquities. A man who has paid
off a farm mortgage of anything like
the value of his property in this state
is entitled to rank among the lead
ing financiers of the world. He has
done it by the hardest of work, the
closest of economy and the depriva-
ton of every comfort of life. The
thousands who have failed to do it,
who have gone down in the struggle,
have lost no honor. They are mar
tyrs to system Of oppression that
would be condemned in Russia, but is
silently endured in this ''land of the
free"
Here is young man, brought up
on the farm and Injured to its toll who
| has left the old homestead and work
| ed OUT long enough to accumulate
d sum Of money, say $500. He wants
to settle down for life and knows no
| life but the farm. He knows Of q
farm that he thinks will support the
family that he intends to form. II
ought to, at least, for it is large enough
| TO give him work the year around.
The price Of the place is $4,000. lie
buys it, paying his $500 down and
giving mortgage back to the former
owner. This mortgage bears 8 per
lcent interest and he loses say 4 per
cent interest on the $500 paid in,which
| he could have got by depositing it in
| the bank. His interest account, then,
lis SllO year. He must insure the
buildings in favor of the mortgagee
and the insurance amounts to so a
year.
Then comes taxes. He paid no
70 ves on the $500 when il was in the

The Morrisville 1dveytisey, five
column quarto sheet, is the latest ac-
QUESTION to the Vermont press. Its
first issue is very creditable to Messrs.
Rice u Lane, its publishers. How
ever, there would seem to be small
prospect Of making the business prof
liable in field already SO well cover
ed by the other Morrisville paper, the
Ners and Citizss,.

We congratulate the Burlington
.News on completing its first year 50
successfully. 1t has attained . sur
prisingly large patronage for 20 short
a time. The Nems is without doubt
one Of the best penny papers in the
country. However, its claim of hav-
Ing the second highest circulation in
the state is an exaggeration. Two
other dailies and at least five or siA
weeklies surpass it.

bank. He is really no richer than be-
fore. Yet when the inventory is re-
turned he finds he must now pay not
only on the $500 he is worth, but on
practically all that he owes. He talks
with the MORTGAGE and finds that the
latter also has to pay taxes on the
amount of his mortgage, SO that the
mortgaged property is taxed twice.
Perplexed, he talks with the merchant.
The latter tells him that he himself
has $4,000 worth OF stock in trade;
that he owes for 81 800 worth OF it,
but that he does not have to pay taxes
on what he owes since his property is
personal estate which is subject to off
set for debts.
1t is little wonder that the young
farmer becomes discouraged when he
sees himself so sharply Disseminated
against. He notes, too, that taxes
which the merchant escapes increase
his load Just SO much. His taxes at
l50 cents on the dollar average rate
amount to $50 a year.
Interest, insurance and taxes to-
gether, then, foot up Sl50 II year.
This must come in clear cash from
the profits of the farm after all living
expenses are paid. These three items
amountto7 II per cent Of the total
cost of his farm. 1t represents an inn
mense quantity of butter at ID cents,
eggs at l3 cents, potatoes at 40 cents
or hay at $40. The farmer can only
sell what his family or stock does not
consume, and be has to buy q great
deal that he cannot produce. The
margin between is not enough to ena-
BILE him to pay I IL per cent on his
Investment before he can apply any
thing on the principal. The amount
of money that the farmer handles is
small. Anything that increases the
interest, insurance or taxes is a heavy
burden for him. Our present tax law
does this by taxing him on what he

has to pay the same high rate Of in
tercst that the personal property own
er does, 50 there is not even an indi-
rect gain to him.
| Either abolish all offsets or apply
them alike to all kinds Of property.
No discrimination against real estate.
Give us fair tax law.

To go back a little.-After NUM-
ber of the state papers had comment
ed on the action Of Gov. Woodbury.
in pardoning McCarty, the Burling-
ton rumseller, we noted the fact that
those papers which defended the gov
ernor were the same that assailed the
prohibitory law at every opportunity.
A remark to this effect hit the Af'-
aus aud Patriot in a sensitive part.
That paper accused lis of bigotry and
declared that it opposed the prohibi-
tory law because that law was not an
agency for temperance work. This,
coming from such source, could not
90 unrebuked We ridiculed the
idea of the Irgus being sincere IN
such statement The latter detied
lis TO prove that ii did not favor tenn
perance. We declined the invitation
for the simple reason that the position
Of the l,yus on that question i al
ready notorious and nothing that Wt
could say would affect the public's
opinion in regard to it. The AlgN
calls this ssncaking" and uses q lot Of
billingsgatc-its favorite weapon
The shaggy coat, fierce mouth and
coarse growl Of the Irg2ts cannot be
concealed by thin disguise Of Sleeps
clothing. Nothing in its past record
entities ii to different estimate than
the people of Vermont have of it.
