German Democracy for many years promised a new,
Il assessment law, which promises never fulfilled.
They knew also that the Republicans Immediately
upon coming into redeemed every promise pledge
made the Of the State; of those promises was
assessment law. Wehave it. 1t is the we ever had
and while do not claim be perfect as perfect as
would like to have it, is the very best that could had
at the time of lis enactment The will remember that
at the Legislative session of 1896 the Democrats had
majority in the Senate, which largely hndered good and
proper legislation But for the opposition of this Democratic
majority the law and other laws passed at that
session would unquesonably have been perfect in
