ATTACKING THE REVENUE AGENT.

The state agent is stirring up the state IN his
back tax crusade and causing the to tremble in hi
boots who has failed to put in all his taxes thereby de
fraudng his neighbor well his state out of money
Justly due. If every in the state who pays taxes
could be made put his accessible property at the val
aton of his neighbour bearing the burden of taxation
equally, the rate of taxation would he lower and unlike
today, all the people and not part would bear the NUM-
cpaty county and state expenses The unearthing of
these tax frauds should be commended and not condem
ed by the honest citizenship of the state And the tax
dodger when caught should be punished by our courts
as the crime ustfes We endorse the article below
teken from the Greenwood Commonwealth on the SUBJ
ject, which says
ut the duty of every citizen of mississippi to pay
the taxes which the law requires of him. Every species
of property in this state subject taxation should bear
its proportion OF the burden of government When nv
fraud otherwise taxation is avoided it is the duty of
the agent to that the taxes are paid am in
favor of the taxation of every sepcies of property and
then am in favor of making people pay the taxes If
man, woman or corporation will swear to deliberate lie
to avoid the payment of the tribute hch every honest
person should pay to the state am in favor of bounding
him. you have to go to the graveyard to get it
have never understood why the forty acres and a
mule should be taxedo keep up government, while the
mortgage broker and note shaver, the banker the rail
road magnate who have at stake and therefore en-
joys greater favOrs athe hands of the state should be
exempt There is justice in it; and yet you will find
lots OF people Mississippi today who ready to de-
nounce man demagogue who dares to insist upon
equal and exact justice to all in such matters If the ueo
pie against whom the agent has instituted suit
have escaped taxaonby fraud otherwise fail to see
wherein they especially injured when they are only
asked to do whatother people have already DONE am
glad to the agent yigiant do not want
him to prosecute plumber anybody-but wherever he
finds the oily dodger he should lay hold to him with
firm grip, and be that 1t not relaxed until he is
purged of his otense against the commonwealth and the
