Taxing Property in Debt-The Pro.
posed Taxation Of Mortgages.

From the New York Journal.
A distinguished and able citizen has
requested US to consider the proposed
taxation Of mortgages. 1t is his
opinion that the taxation suggested is
unwise, and he has asked that the
matter be discussed in the Journal
We are bound to say that we find it
difficult to reach a definite conclusion
in regard to the proposed State tax on
money invested in real estate mort
cages.
II it were possible to collect the tax
from the man owning the mortgage,
we should unhesitatingly advocate
such a tax. We see no reason why a
man with a million dollars invested in
mortgages should escape taxation on
his property. The State protects him
in his ownership of the mortgage. It's
law courts are maintained to enforce
payment Of his claim. He ought to
contribute his share TO the State and
national expense.
But, unfortunately, we know too
well that the taxation Of mortgages
would really not mean a tax on the
man owning the mortgage.
1t would mean an additional tax on
the owner OF the land. The amount
Of the tax would be added to the rate
Of interest payable on the mortgage,
and a man compelled TO borrow money
on his land would be compelled to pay
the mortgage tax, as we'll as the real
estate tax.
1t seems to us unfair to propose a
tax aimed at mortgage owners when
everybody knows that the mortgage
owner would not pay the tax at all.
Men mortgage their property for
two reasons.
First, because they are poor and I'M
able to avoid the mortgage. In this
case the tax on mortgages would be an
added tax on hard luck.
Second, they mortgage their pro
,perty for the purpose Of building
houses, factories and so on. In this
case it would seem unjust and unwise
to put an extra tax on the real estate
owner because Of his desire to under
take work valuable TO the community
and giving employment to labor.
II any genius could dnd some way Of
imposing a tax that would actually DO
paid by the prosperous mortgage
holder, his discovery would BE- OF great
value. But we cannot think il right
TO impose what would practically BE-
an additional burden on the real estate
OF the individual who happens 20 DO
hard up, or enteFprlSlng.

ROUGH APRIL FOOL JOKE.
Two Men Travel All the Way From

it Funny,

ATCHIsoN, KAN, April John
and Frank McPhilemy, living near
Phillipsburg, Pa, arrived in AtchiSon

the result of an April fool joke. On
Saturday their uncle, living near
them in Pennsylvania, telephoned
them that their father, Thomas Nc
Philemy, of Bingham, Atchison
county, Kansas, was dead, and that
the funeral would occur Monday af-
ternoon. The young men caught the
first train out of Phillipsburg and
arrived here this morning, too late ia
make connections for Eningham. They
then opened communications with the
family at Efingham. a messenger had
to be sent to the McPhilemy home in
bingham, and he returned to the
telephone with their father, who an.
swered their call. Thomas McPhilemy
has not even been sick, and it is not
known how the blunder occurred un
less it was an out and out April foo

Corn King Phillips caused a furry In
the corn, wheat and oats market at
Chicago yesterday. The price of oats
was sent skyward and a buying panic
marked the opening trading in this
cereal. Toward the close there was a
break in all grains, which must have
strained the nerve Of the bull leader.
Phillips operations rival those Of
'Old Hutch" in his palmiest days.
