will not be able to impress the great
mass Of voters With its sincerity.
First, because trusts have been
made possible by reason of the inn
position Of high tariffs on imports,
tariffs that bring 10 bnt little reve-
nue. to the government but enable
manufacturers, combines aud trusts
TO charge exorbitant profits on
their goods.
Second, the Republican party has
been in control Of the government
almost continually for over thirty
years. and could easily have re-
strained trusts had il 80 desired.
Third, the sincerity OF the party
is in question when it lie recalled
that the trusts and combines have
been heavy contributors to Repab-
lican campaign funds, and drive or
persuade their employees to support
the party which in turn has BY leg
islation made trusts possible.
The Republican party Of Mary
land has been in control Of the
State for nearly four years, and on
Iy found ont that public sentiment
demanded police reorganization in
Baltimore after the Democratic
platform declared for divorcing
partisan politics from the control
CT TIE Baltimore police force.
A bill to reorganize the police
force was discussed in the General
Assembly OF 1896 and two bills we're
before the General Assembly Of '9S
for reorganization; but. according
to an editorial in the Baltimore
Sun, August 81, 1899, "I was
largely the hostility Of the city dele
gates and their desire TO fH NJ.
iSchryrer's place Nth a REPUBLI-
CAN which caused all plans for re-
organization to fail at the last ses-
sion"
IL the Republican party of Mary
land could not effect reorganization
after trials at two sessions of the
General Assembly, and could not
rise above the plane of mere party
spoilsmen, can they be trusted next
winter?

SAYS TAX BILLS ARE VOID.
Judge Philips Renders Far-ReachIng
Decision.

/ K Z. 1Imes.
A decision of far reaching effect
was rendered by Judge Philips a
week ago Saturday at Springfield,
and if the decision stands thousands
of dollars worth of property is in
volved. In the decision IN question
Judge Philips holds that tax bills
against property in cities for st.-et
and other improvements, which
assessed on the front foot, wit are
regard to value, are INVALID, be bout
contrary to the fourteenth cause
N ent TO the constitution. mend
Owing to the fact that the deci-
sion was rendered several days ago
at Springfield, it has not attracted
the attention that its importance
deserves. AS it stands, every city la
Mis- souri, is affected the
The case which gave rise toad
decision was the case of Fay
others against the city of Spring
field, Mo, and Myrick, a contractor.
The, object of the suit was to pre-
vent Myrick, as the contractor, from
collecting tax bills that had been
assessed against Fay's property,
among others, to repave street.
The tax bills are provided for by
Missouri law, and are the same as
every city in the state uses in making
street improvements. The property
along certain portion of a street is
assessed at SO much per front foot.
The question of depth of lot or value
of improvements is not taken into
consideration in these assessments.
Judge Philips contends that
man who owns a lot of fifty front
feet which is unimproved and per-
haps very undesirable lot must pay
just the same as the man who owns
fifty front feet, with a revenue pro-
ducing building, and that for this
reason the law is unjust. He cites
an Ohio opinion to sustain the point.
It is obvious that either Judge
Philips is wrong or that the state of
Missouri will have to make some
changes in her laws. Even if these
changes are made, it is problematieal
as to the result the decision will
haye on the thousands of dollars of
tax bills now outstanding in the
cities of the state.
1t is almost certain that the case
will be appealed to the supreme
court As The matter now stands, |
an INDUCTION prevents the collection
of outstanding tax bills.
