ARGUMENTS WITHOUT RECKONING

A personal property tax, at the best, is
bad enough without making it appear
worse than it is for the purpose Of argu-
ment. Some Of our contemporaries, who
are vehemently opposed to the proposed
tax law, are assuming that with the in
creased valuation that may reasonably be
expected to result from he application Of
the new law there will be no decrease in
the rate of. taxation. Thus one paper this
morning gravely applies the present rates
of taxation in certain communities to
bank deposits assuming that the proposed
law should be adopted, and asserts that
the taxes will be more than the interest.
Stocks and bonds are similarly discussed.
There are two factors in the collection of
taxes-the assessment and the rate. The
sum of taxation being constant the as
sessment must alter inversely as the rate.
If it were possible to get an absolutely
trut hful statement of the true value Of
all property, tangible and Intangible, it
would not be surprising if it should be
three times the present assessment of the
state, thereby reducing the rate two
thirds. It is probable that the assessment
under the proposed law will he doubled,
thereby reducing the rate one-half. While
that is an excessive rate on bank deposit g
being so bad as Is carelessly represented
by those who are so eager to emphasize
the defects Of the proposed law

KIPLING,S ARRANGEMENT

The February number of the Worlds Work
will contain the complete poem, entitled,
1.-The Islanders by Rudyard Kipling, part
of which has been reprinted in the newspa-
pers., Another part is given below, by per-
mission of Doubleday, Page Co.:
Arid, aloof, injurious, unthinking, unthank-
ing, gelt-
Will We loose your schools to fout them till
the browbeat columns melt?
Will We pray them or preach them or print
them or ballot them back from your
shore?
them strike no more?
Will ye rise and dethrone your rulers? (Be-
cause We were idle both.
Pride by insolence humbled? 1ndolence
spurred by sloth?}
No doubt but We are the people: who shall
make you afraid?
Also your gods are many; NO doubt but your
gods shall aid.
Idols of greasy affairs built for the spirits
ease;
Proud little brazen Baals and talking fe-
tichcs;
Tctems of sept and party and wise wood
pavement gods
These shall come down to the battle and
snatch you from under the rods?
From the gusty Pickering gun-roll with views
less salvos rent.
And the pitted hail OF the bullets that tell
|. not whence they were sent?
When ye are ringed with iron, when ye
are scourged as with whips,
When the meat is yet in your belly and the
boast is yet on your lips;
When you go forth at morning and the noon
beholds you broke
Ere We lie down at even, your remnant, under
the yoke.
