Charles Quarles Of Milwaukee Ia an
able lawyer and u wise man. Here Is
some OF his wisdom as applied TO
primary election laws and tax reform:
81 do not approve OF the primary
election plank. | do not think that
any bill that has been proposed Is or
can be made constitutional. ! do not
think it Is desirable TO abolish CON
ventions, because | think the people
are entitled TO come together and cor
rect their ideas and read just them by
consultation and debate.
81 do not think that any beneficial
results can flow from the primary
election schemes ny they have been
developed or outlined. ! do not mean
TO say that our present system earn OF
be improved, but | do mean to say
that the essential idea back of the
primary election plank Is radically
wrong, and would be injurious in It's
results.
~ certainly do not believe that any
faction has invented the idea Of oqua-
lily OF taxation and ! am confident
that from the way assessments are
being made this year very serious
results are going TO Hollow.
''The attempt Of the LaFollette fac
tion of the Republican party is to
enforce laws for the assessment of
intangible property, evidences Of debt
and the like which are merely ut best
Implications of property, and the pco-
pie Of Wisconsin by their acts for
fifty years have said decidedly these
items OF property shall not be taxed,
sin my Judgment the only way to
devise n practicable system of taxa
tion Ia TO tlno out what law the people
have made by their acts, and then
adapt the situation to those laws that
represent the sentiment Of the people.
| see the assessments ut Kcnosha have
increased from 81 800, 900 to Sll ,000,-
600. This increases the debt limit
aud increases OF course the possible
tax, and when the common council
has IL within it's power to raise the
tax limit and debt limit by six 1t GER
tainly Is going TO raise IL by three Mt
least. The attendant evils, such as
the temptation TO prohigate expendi-
lures, are apparent
This is one OF the fruits of LaFol-
lctteism.n
Respect for the laws which the poo
have made by their acts for fifty
years Is commendable. Common law
is we'll settled public opinion. The
full penalty OF the law requiring the
taxation OF evidences of debt has
never been exacted by the people OF
Wisconsin. 1t has been rightly re-
garded as unjust taxation to tax both
real property and the encumbrauce
thereon. Equal and exact justice to
all men is what the people want The
enforcement OF this law would defeat
the ends OF justice, 1t ought to be re-
poalcd.

Wing Admirable Letter.

Chicago Chronicle: The lestor Of
ex-senator William +. Villas to A. f.
Warden, chairman Of the WiHonsin
democratic committee, is n Iplhical
paper Of great force, which has The
merit Of going straight to the heart of
the political situation.
Mr.. Villas sees in the Dingley tariff
an engine OF legislation which Is used
by greed to practically enslave men
by depriving them of opportunity and
forcing them into the service Of gi-
gantic combines on such terms as the
latter may dictate.
He sees that no other issue can be
paramount so long rs the system OF
legislative favoritism Of which the
tariff Is the most salient and danger
Gus feature Is rapidly massing enor.
nous aggregations OF wealth on the
one side and converting men into SER
wants Of those aggrcgations on the
other--serv ants deprived OF indepen-
dence and security, mere tools OF
remorscless taslsmasters.
Mr.. Villas says with no less truth
than force that this system by which
the wealth OF the many Is turned into
the Golfers OF the few sis the conspir-
acy Of conspiraccs, the trust of all
trusts, the grand council N public
jobbery which goes on a large scale.
