it is exceedingly luminous and daZ-
Zles the ordinary individual with the
irridescency of its scintillations. Just
to save his eyes, if for no other reason,
the be-dizzened reader turns his gaze

tions of the past few years and dis
covers that they have advocated gov
eminent printing presses for the
production of paper and silk money;
government ownership of all railroads;
government telegraph lines; munich
pal street railways, water and lighting.
They have advocated state banks for
the issue of irredeemable notes, paya-
BILE nowhere at no time to no one by
nobody. They have advocated state
insurance and state stock yards.
These are few of the paternal
things that were expected to throttle
the great red dragon which has run
rampant and untrammeled over the
once proud state of Kansas until her
women sold their virtue and her men
turned hoboes and begged for bread.
Now the governor comes to their res

LOW TAXES.

We have heard several remarks pro
and con upon the subject of low as
seSsments and light taxes this year.
One taxpayer says his taxes fall on
real estate) are little more than half
as high as formerly. So great re-
duction in one year is unreasonable.
Another subscriber from a different
part of the county says his land tax
is considerably reduced but his per-
sonal tax is greatly increased upon
the same property as held before. If
there is any one class which should be
glad of low valuations it is the nom
resident owners of land which owe
their value to the men who live here
and improve the county. Bachelors
who have no children to school might
like the scheme except that lower
land tax makes higher personal tax
necessary and the bachelor gets no
exemption. One man paws seventy
cents and personal valuation of 80.
That is, seventy cents is the penalty
for owning one yearling heifer, il the
owner lives here, while thousands are
brought in and grazed upon non-resi-
dent owners land kindly favored by
low valuations) and pay no tax at all /,
as they come and go again between
times of assessments. Another tax
payer informs us that his personal
tax is twice as high as last year. Still
another local cattle man who owns
several hundred head of cattle will
not bring his cattle into the county
at this time because taxes on such
property has been largely increased,
although his other interests are near
ly all in Trego-
II taxes are really lower and if they
remain lower it certainly must follow
that some one is getting less pay fol
something than formerly or else we are
to deny ourselves something we have
had in the past. Since nearly OF
about one-half OF our taxes are levied
for the support of schools it is reason
able to expect the greatest reduction
of expenditures in that line Teach
ers wages may be reduced. the length
