Township Districts.

THE following, taken from the
forthcoming annual report of the
State Superintendent of Schools,
will be found to contain another
view of the MESSAGE lately adj
vanced, favoring centralized
schools:
1.-THE report urges legislation pro-
viding % free tuition in high
schools for boys and girls in rural
districts; (2) State inspection of
small high schools as well as large
ones; (3) a County school board
with supervisory powers and du-
ties, upon whom the character and
progress of the schools of the
county depend; a. consolidation
of small districts into township
districts for the purpose of equal
izing taxation, length of school
term and the better opportunity
for children

Natural Taxation.

EDITOR OF MESSAGE: The sub
jcct of taxation seems to he the
paramount issue now before the
people of the state, SO perhaps Il
few remarks upon the subject may
not he out of place.
We are endcavoring to establish
a system of taxation that will be
absolutely equitable. With this
object in view we are establishing
and attempting to establish various
reform measures; but 50 far our
efforts to Tighten the load of those
least able to bear the burden of
taxation, seems to he Il failure.
There is no doubt that the eff
fort made by the people to require
the mortgage holder to bear Il just
proportion of the expenses of the
government which protects his
property will be a failure. We are
told that in California where n law
similar to our third constitutional
amendment exists, the money lend
er requires the borrower to enter
into contract to pay all the tax
es. BY this and various other
Mexico Missouri message., 1901-01-10
A just Tax Law.

TT is interesting to read any
thing in an Eastern journal com
mandatory of legislative doings in
the West, especially if Missouri
happens to be the actor. The
Globc-Democrat's Poor Old Mis-
souri," cry has had its effect upon
the brain cells Of many of the Yam
kcc editors and they can scarcely
imagine that any good thing should
come out of Missouri. But the
editor of the Outlook, published in
New York City, forgot the other
day and allowed himself to say
some nice things concerning the
Third Constitutional Amendment
recently adopted in this State.
Nearly every man who pays
taxes is interested III this question
and will, therefore, he concerned
in what this New York editor has
to say upon the subject. Here is
his concluding paragraph:
The system Of taxing mortgagrd
property once and only once, and
dividing the tax equitably between
borrower and lender, does afford
some relief to the borrower-tho
its amount may easily be cXaggcr-
ated. Quite apart from this gain,
however, is the gain for public jus
tice and the gain for public homes
ty. 1t is a great gain for public
justice to have each citizen taxed
only on the amount of property he
possesses. 1t is still greater
gain for public honesty to have "A
tax law which does not put pre-
MUM upon dishonesty by taxing
honest money-lendcrs, while per-
hitting dishonest ones to evadc
their taxes by perjury. Under
the California and Missouri sys-
tens no one need be asked to make
any return of the mortgages he
holds. His property is taxed
where it is invested, and this is the
only place in which it ought to be
taxed. If this principle We're cv-
erywhcre applied to the taxation
Of mortgages and to the taxation
of corporate securities the evils of
taX.dodging would practically he
done away with. The reform is
one that should enlist the support
of all who are concerned for the
honor of the business community, |
as well as those concerned for the |
material relief of the mortgage
burdencd classes.
Mexico Missouri message., 1901-01-10

similar cXpedientS the money own
cr will shift this tax to the user of
money. Thus it seems to me that
while this is a laudahlc effort on
the part of the people to obtain
Justice, yet it will be II failure.
II is fact well established in
political economy that taxes upon
any commodity fall ultimately up
on the user of that commodity,
Tax Il mans income and no matter
from what source his income is de-
rived he will manage to shift that
tax to the users of his money or
the consumer of the commodities,
the manufacturers or handlers.
Pass n usury law and the money
lender cvades it by cXacting boz
nus or premium.
The only way in which we can
secure IA perfectly just system Of
taxation is to stop taxing every
thing in sight and conform to the
natural law of taxation rs taught
by the new science of political
economy. The present system i'm
poses n fine upon industry, tends
to check production, thus lessen
ing the fund from which all taxes
must be paid and the community
maintained. 1t is bunglesome
and difficult to assess and collect,
and places dishonesty in officials
and citizens at n premium. And
lastly it is morally wrong to take
from any individu al that which he
by his labor has honestly obtained.

THE Globe Democrat is obliged
to admit one good thing in favor
of GOV. Dockcry, that he is un-
pledged and that the lobby is
afraid of him. The CD. is right,
for once, 1t charges, on the other
hand, that Whitecotton is in ser.
Witty to the lobby. We believe
the CD. is wrong in this, and
hope the proof will soon he forth
coming. Whitccottou was an I'm
Surgcnt' two years ago. lie wore
no other mans collar then, and he
wears none but his own now.
Whitecotton, take your stand
for the people, and you are all
right, and the chances are You will
be called up higher in the councils
of state later on.

and referendum to every minor
legislative act would be too cxpcn.
sivc and cumbrous. In Difference
to such DIRECTORS and in II spirit of
conservatism and caution the sys-
TEN might be adopted embracing
only such important acts as involv-
ed grave interests of the people.
Having thus instituted the system
and put it to the test it could be
extended from time to time as
wisdom and experience might die
tate.
Such Il method of legislation
would tend largely to limit the
evil practices of boodlers and bride
givers. They would hesitate to
spend their money corrupting the
representatives of the people if
they knew that any law which they
might procure to he enacted could
not become operative until the pee
pie themselves had ratified it. 1t
is at least doubtful whether the
system is not necessity to the
continued existence of our free in
stitutions. The tendency of the
times is toward IA concentration of
both all wealth and all power in
the hands of Il favored oligarchy.
To prevent this the people must
hold the reins of government Mr..
Jefferson has well said: The far
ther the departure from direct and
constant control by the citizens,
the less has the gov of the
ingredient of republicanism. "
Mexico Missouri message., 1901-01-10

The only reason We allow such ii
system to endure is because the
majority of men do not think.
With them whatever is, is right.
The Creator. who does all things
well and who ordained that men
should live in States or cOmmuui-
ties, established II fund by which
the State was to he maintained.
This fund which every man, wo-
man and child in the community
helps to create, we allow the
monopoliSt TO put down in his
pocket, and then impose upon the
people this foolish, burdensome
system of direct and indirect taxes.
Verify, we are a great people.
Now in the dawn of the twenti-
ticth century SO full of glorious
possibilities, let us pause for
moment in our mad race after the
almighty dollar and take look at
this new political economy which
means so much for the human
race, 1t means the placing of the
man above the dollar, 1t means
the emancipation of the majority
of mankind from the present syS-
TEN of industrial slavery far worse
than chattel slavery.
Now, Mr.. Editor, if this com
munication does not find its way
to the waste basket | shall in the
near future attempt TO explain
what | mean by natural taxation.

dunn, as it is commonly called
We also seconded the declaration
which is not very popular with
some people-that representative
government to an extent is Il failure.
That the latter is true makes the
demand for direct legislation all
the more necessary. We did not
think to get support in these views
quite so soon, and that too from
so high parsonage ms the retiring
Governor of this State. In his
final message to the Legislature
last week GOV. Stevens favored
the initiative and referendum in
the following words;

sideration whether either our or
ganic or statutory law should not
be so amended ms to reserve di-
rectly to the people both the pow
er to initiate and the right to have
referred to them for their ratitica-
ton or rejection matters of impor-
tant legislation. 1t may be OBJ

been bearing the burden and pay

New York Journal, (Dem)
The Alabama constitutional con-
vention has disappointed its friends
by adopting the grandfather clause"
creating an hereditary aristOcracy of
ignorance. The census returns show
that straight educational qualifica-
ton would insure white supremacy
in Alabama. Last year there were
2O0,6S0 white men of voting age
who could read and write and 3,474
Negroes white majority of 1877
206. There were 1854 illiterate
whites and 1O7, 1897 illiterate negroes
1t Is not a superhuman feat to
teach a man to read and write. II
Alabama wants her 1874 ignorant
white men to vote, she will do bet
ter to educate them than to sneak
them into the franchise by way o.
a furtive grandfather clause"

Much Gold from Klondike.

New York CONNIE rcial, Sth
The sub-Treasury paid out on the
first two days of this week over ST.
800, 1000 for new gold. Most of this
came from the KlOndike.
If the influx of gold continues,
and there is every reason to believe
il will, at the present rate it is esti-
mated that between $50, 900, 900 and
$50, 100000 will have been ex-
changed for virgin dust and nuggets
before October /.
The arrival of each additional YES.
sci from Alaska means an increase
in the cOuntry's store of yellow
metal. 1t naturally follows that
this increase to the local market viii
tend to allay any suspicion of high
er monetary rate for some time tt
come.
This is the opinion of prominen
men in the street, and the continued
shipments of gold to the sub-Treas
ury will be welcome in view Of tn,
labor difficulties which may have
disturbing influence on the marke
during the coming weeks.
