The Enterprise Star. The Popu'

Republican The Journal relies with
this challenge:
III the Star man wants q real live

rio, the Democratic candidate for
representative from this county.
Hoffman was the Prohibition candida
for mayor Of this city . year AMI q
bali ago. Harris was elected mayor
Of Solomon last spring oa an anti
prohibition platform, pledged to run
the town wide open. A meeting bs.
tween Hoffman and Harris with Mrs.

'joint' debate that would add more to
the gsiety Of politics in this county
than any other event Of the cam.

In the last term Of court in which

q cases and convicted only 4. OF
these four one pleaded guilty and
would have done it In . lower court
and saved the county costs; another
was willing to plead guilty to assault
and battery In . lower court but
Kane only convicted him Of assault;
one was liquor case; one was against
two burglars whom W. H. Eicholtz
marched to jail at the point Of q re-

tinued, dismissed or acquitted! How

Der how he brought state case and
the jury returned verdict that it
was without probable cause" thus
taxing the costs to the prosecuting
witness and be filed a motion to have
this portion Of the verdict set aside so
that the county would have to pay
the costs-the people who had hired
him to look after their interests.
Justice Davidson refused to grant the
motion, holding that the prosecuting
witness should pay the costs.

Craddock'e Tax Ideas.

W. H. Craddock, the Fusion candi
date for governor, evidently got BIZ
idea Of taking up tax matters from
the bill prepared last year by the
Kansas Tax commission. This bill
contains as complete and practical
q franchise tax law as can be found
upon the statute books Of any state
In the Union.
Six months after the bill was pub
lished Craddock began bis campaign
for governor and be has been talking
taxation ever since. The taxation OF
corporations uron their capitalization
which be advocates Is q reform In our
tax system Is contained In the bill
prepared by the Kansas commission.
Craddock and bis tax platform are
not taken seriously however because
IS governor he would have absolutely
nothing to do with levying the taxes
or fixing the valuation Of single
piece Of property In the state. And
then Mr.. Craddock is mayor Of Kan.
sas City where under the law he ap-
points the assessors and has the on.
tire taxing machinery in his hands.
Here then would be a rich field for
Mr., Craddock to exploit his tax re-
forms, but in no city in the state are
there such gross determinations or
the corporations favored SO much.
The packing houses, the Metropolitan
street railway, the Electric Lighting
co., and other large corporations are
taxed on a valuation OF from ! to
per cent Of what they are actually
worth. So outrageously low were
these valuations that the state board
Of equalization raised the valuation
Of personal property in Wyandotte
county over 100000 this year.
Mr.. Craddock's promise Of low
taxes, like bis criticism Of the Repub-
ican party for failing to enforce pro-
,ibition, Is simply buncombe in
ended to deceive voters.
