TAX COMMISSION.
Tho question of taxation is one Of vital
Importance and one that the legislature
must carefully consider during this session.
There should be a uniform tax law, which
would place the burden of taxation equally
upon the shoulders of all, so that no one
class Of people shall feel 1t more than an
other. Such is not the case at present, for
the poor man, II he has a little home,
cannot hide and pays his full share. The
