each year levy tax to meet the es-
ti1nated expenditures. This will
prevent the state ever having float
ing debt or the issue of bonds to
meet current expenses. or to take
up temporary debts.
Third when the income of the
state from other sources such as the
gross earnings, inheritance, corpor-
alton taxes, etc., is sufficient to meet
the annual state expenses, then no
state tax on lands or personal es-
tate shall be levied.
Fourth-A1l taxes for state pur-
poses shall be uniform throughout
the state and shall be equalized by
the state board of equalization. But
when no state tax is levied then
there shall be county option in tax
alton. That is. each county shall
levy it's own tax, make it's own as
sessment and equalize that asses
ment as it sees fit. In tax matters
it would be as free as in road mat
ters, and could make assessments
low or high on the different classes
of property, as it might see fit.
Fifth-General or special laws
may be passed authorizing cities
and towns to levy assessments for
local Improvements on frontage
property or property benefited or
both, without regard to cash valua
ton.
Sixth Corporations holding a
public franchise, such as street
railway, lighting, water, telephone,
boom and other franchise compan-
les, may be taxed in either of two
ways. A tax may be levied on the
value of the franchise in addition to
a tax on all real estate and personal
property held by the company. Or
in lieu of all other taxes a tax may
be levied on gross earnings, just az
is now done with steam railways.
Whichever method is used the tax
is, however, not to go as does the
railway gross earnings tax, all to
the state, but is to be apportioned
to the state, counties and munich
palities "where such franchise is
exercised" ~. i: >:.:=:.z2

pertinent of loaning up to seven per
cent Of the valuation has been a
success but the amount permitted
is so low that only the smaller and
practically debt free organizations
can take advantage of the law. 1t
is now proposed to extend it's scope
and permit larger loans, while leav-
ing the limit absolutely safe. Fiji
teen per cent of the assessed valua-
ton is not to exceed on an average
probably five per cent of the real
wealth of any district named and
yet this will relieve great many
cities, towns and villages that are
now paying almost double the in
terest asked on state loans, while
the state will keep it's money at
home, safely loaned to ITS own peo-
pie.
ROAD-BR1DGE FUND AMENDMENT.
The constitution now provides
state road and bridge fund consist
ing of all the returns from the in
vestment of internal improvement
land funds and any other state road
and bridge fund together with an
annual tax of not to exceed one
twentieth of one mill. This fund
the Legislature can divide among
the counties, giving not over one
third the cost of any bridge or high
way, nor more than three per cent
nor less than one-half of one per
cent of the total fund to any one
county, nor more than onethird of
the total fund for bridges. All mon
ey is to be expended under the d.
rection of state commission. This,
as can be seen. is extremely cum
bersome and intricate. Under it no
proper nor adequate system of state
aid to roads can be built up. The
proposed amendment merely in
creases the permitted annual tax
from one-twen,ieth to one-tenth of
one mill. which means that the leg
islature cannot levy more but may
levy less or nothing. But whatever
fund is raised is to be appropriated
without any restrictions by the leg
islature and the state commission
is cut out. This will permit ade-
quate help to new counties and to
thinly settled districts.
TAXATION.
The amendment as to taxation
can only be considered in sections
and made plain.
First-1t specifically prohibits the
surrender, suspending or contract
ing away of the power of legisla-
ton. This, for instance, would make
it impossible for any future legisla-
ture to fix a form of taxation for
corporations or for any class. that
could be claimed to be a contract
and 80 Interchangeable.
Second-The legislature must

Seventh-An inheritance tax not

Seventh-An inheritance tax not
to exceed five per cent, may be lev
led. This tax may be graded or fix
ed. That is it may be certain per
cent on certain amount of inherit
ance and a different per cent on
larger estates and so on, but in no
event can it exceed five per cent.
Eighth-A registry tax may be
imposed on mortgages in lieu of
other taxes. This is in effect a fee
charged when the mortgage is Of
fered for record and graded accord
ing to the amount of the mortgage.
AS by far the greater per cent of
mortgages now escape taxation en-
tirely, this would be an effort to
make an equable tax on all and
place the resident money loaner on
a fair basis with the nonresident
who now pays no tax.
Ninth-An income tax is permit
ted which shall be uniform through
out the state. 1t shall be on all
CACuAtS VI PERSONS or Corporations
and on all income from personal
property. Also itshall be on all in
comes arising otherwise than on
credits and personal property where:
such income exceeds $1,000 per an
mum. This would include salaries,
income from profession, trade or
business of any kind. Such income
tax would be in lieu of all other
taxes on the credits or personal
property which are the sources of
the income and would be somewhat
after the nature of a gross earnings
tax. -~*

NEW YORK, April Ito the Editor of

and cruelties of war, which always prevail
curing a campaign in an enemy's country,
am surprised at the position of your
legged action of. Major Glenn, Lieutenant
C9nger and Assistant Surgeon Lyon.
which you base your attack on these u 6Tl
GERS, goes to prove that they gave the
water cure to a Filipino, who had been
our government, who had taken the oath
OF allegiance TO our country, and then used
ms omcias position to cover his acts as
within our lines. Therefore. he was a
a violation of the laws of war, and branded
MN an outlaw and guerrilla. II these are
oescd facts, under the nsages of war these
fact, If they had shot the traitor, they
would never have been called to account,
have happened to him in the civil war.
An officer has great latitude under such
en- t1rc condamannc and It Is not safe or fair
government which he has sworn to protect
trust. You ignore entirely this side of the
question:, and only treat Major Glenn's acts
as cruelties to peaceable Filipino citizens.
l can remember when the journals OF this
country upheld and applauded an ohicer
who, in the civil war, ordered a man shot
II ne attempted to haul down the American
flag. and cannot understand the present
mysteries OF some journals over the terrible
violation of the laws OF war In furnishing a
traitor caught in the act with the water
cure only. The treatment may have been
severe, but 1t is not permanently harmful.
l am astonished that these fearfully
wrought-up journals have no word OF com
mendaton for our soldiers in the Philip
pines, who have suffered untold cruelties,
aSSaESinattOnS. burning nv EInW draa hnrtai
alive. mutilauons and atrocities, who have
submitted to every indignity without re-
sentiment or complaint, and ! have been
havior under such trying circumstances.
In their comments. these Journals are very
careful not to say why these punishments
are given TO such traitors. knowing well IL
they did our people would look upon the
acts as one OF the necessities OF war, and
would wonder at the leniency of Major
Glenn and his command.
