REFORM MUST BEGIN AT HOME
An Object Lesson in Tax Sinking That
Troubled Mr.. Smith.

Smith is a reformer. He stands high
in the Civic federation, and what he
does not know of the affairs Of other
people is not worth knowing. Lately
his hobby has been assessments and
taxation, and Mrs. Smith has been
treated to a daily dissertation from
Smith as to the way in which he is 60
ing to bring those fellows to time.
The Smiths are very well mated. Smith
looks at everything in the abstract
No proposition is ever brought home
to him, and he views the world in a
very general way. Mrs. Smith, on the
contrary, is very practical. She deals
in the concrete, and all her philosophy
is applied to running her house and
doing her shopping.
Mrs. Smith, do you know that there
are thousands, nay, millions, of dollars
worth of property in this city-not
paying a dollar Of taX-getting off scot
iree?"
And Smith pounded the library ia
BILE with his fist.
Dear me- sighed Mrs. Smith.
Yes, Mrs. Smith. the honest. frugal,
middle-class citizens are bearing the
burdens of the municipality"
Yes, that's So" said Mrs. Smith,
whose mind was beginning to work on
the usual concrete lines, but If poor
people would do as | do they'd find
their taxes less. You know that man
that here every year to fix our
water tax, poking around all over the
house-the impertinent thing-to find
out how many wash basins there are?
Well. he cant get ahead of me. He new
er has found out yet about that sink
in the pantry, between the dining room
and the kitchen, and he has no idea
that we've got a wash basin in the par
lor bedroom upstairs!"
And Mr.. Smith is still thinking.

AN IMPORTANT CONVENTION
Letter From a Wyoming Man Concern,
ing Houston Meeting.

Houston (Texas) Post: A very in
teresting and timely letter has been re-
ceived by the Post from Mr.. W. II.
Holiday. president and general man
ager of the w. H. Holiday company.
Laramie, WyO., in which he discusses
some points in connection with the
meeting of the Transmississippi COM
merCial congress to be held here mex
April. Some extracts from his letter
are given below:
The Post. | imagine. reflects the
great business enterprise of the people
of Houston and is as active in present
wonderful growth, great transportation
facilities and remarkable possibilities
as Il commercial center as were the able
delegation of splendid men and women
who represented Texas in the CONNER
cial congress held at Wichita in June
last.
when the farmers, the mine owners
the manufacturers and the merchants
who aid in distributing the products of
the farm and factory stop to consider
that all the products of the farm, the
mines, the mills and the factories at
the place of production is determined
to an important extent by the cost of
transaction to the markets of the
world; hat the security for Investment
in many enterprises, particularly in
manufacturing: the development of the
resources in almost every county in the
states west of the Mississippi. all de-
pend upon just, steady and equitable
railroad rates, they begin TO realize the
importance of representative V
tions. nonpartisan in character-as has
been the Transmississippi CONNER
cial congress-to consider the great
question of transportation in every
phase possible, including a deep outlet
to the Mississippi river and deep inlets
to otherwise good harbors on the coast
of the United States, to facilitate the
shipment of farm products and other
merchandise.
THE shortest routes to good harbors
on the gulf coast as an outlet for a large
part of the surplus products of the
farms in the Transmississippi country
is very important in determining farm
values.
In the semi-arid section of country
west of the 9Sth meridian the question
of storage reservoirs for the food wa
tiers Of the streams and the greatest pos
sible use of the waters thereof for the
purpose of bringing such lands under
cultivation, will, for many years. de-
mand the attention Of the best thought
in such section of the country.
ut is true hat the questions consid-
cred by the congress aforesaid cover
very nearly the whole field Of econom-
les affecting the welfare of the Missis-
sippi valley, the western coast and the
intermountainous section of the United
States. But, after all, the main ques-
ton is the one of getting the products
of the farm. mines and factories to con-
sumers in the several states or in get
ting such products loaded on ships at
the lowest possible cost for transpor-
tation.
II hope to be in Houston in April
during the session of the next CONNER
cial congress"
