In 1879 the receipts or the state rev
enue fund we're 81, ,l9l,l ,lS4. In 1899 they
were g, ,4O6,i5S. By this it will be seen
that the people OF Missouri are taxed
Sl,2l5.213 more, or twice as much today
as they we're twenty-ti years ago. 10
1875 the official state reports show that
the lan6s OF the state were assessed at
SG.G5 per acre. In 1898 they were as.
sessed at 81 6S per acre, an increase oi
Sl.03 per acre. So much has the DEM
ocra,ic party done for the farmers OF
the state. Iu 1875 the railroad oom-
misslouer's report says that there were
1850 miles Of railroad in the state.
These roads were assessed at the rate OF
Sl3, l42 per mile. In 1893 there were
6, ,S25 miles Of railroad in this state, az
sessed at Sll. l.l3S per mile. A reduction
OF S2,0W mile from the assessed val
uatlon as compared with that OF 1875.
On the other hand the Democratic state
ring increased the burdens OF taxation
for the farmers Of the state by raising
their assessment S1.03 per acre.
