DAVIS THE LEGISLATOR,
find His Strange Change of
Views Wbep He BecoDes a
Candidate,

Hon. Cyrus W. Davis in his speech at
the Waterville convention alleged that
the farmers Of the State had never felt
the iron hand of taxation so heavily
as now, and that the valuation has been
showed up for taxation purposes s116,-
ooo,ooo in the past score of years. But
he did not tell how much he himself had
contributed to the heaping up of ex-
pendltures. For example, as a member
OF the last Legislature, he spoke and
voted for an appropriation OF $4,000 in
aid of Colby College.
we have been very willing" he said
In speech IN the House, ITO add to the
salaries Of our officials, and to grant de-
serving appropriations, and we shall do
SO up TO the very limit Of our financial
possibilities; and 1 believe there is moth
ing that can come before US which 50
rightly and SO righteously claims even
what it asks for (s25, 1000. than this in
stituion."
Mr.. Davis was right In taking that
position, but the legislator looking after
the interests of his constituents sings
quite different tune from the candi-
date looking for votes
Again, MIR. Davis spoke to a bill to
authorize steam railroad corporations to
bulid and operate street railroads, and
in the course of his speech he mentioned
the fact that the State assessors report
stated that the nineteen electric rail-
roads in the State had an aggregate
capital OF more than $4,000, 600, 1.-THE
item Of $4,000 900 in round numbers"
said Mr.. Davis, does not by any manner
OF means cover the property that has
been added to the State Of Maine since
the electric railroads began their career
in 1880 aud 1891. 1t would be impossible
to estimate, as the figures are not at
hand to prove it, but there can be no
doubt that more than this ten millions
of property have been added to the
state of Maine along the lines OF these
roads during the past ten years."
Again Mr.. Davis was right, and again
the voice of the legislator seeking to
make his point and having no incentive
to be partisan and unfair in his use of
figures rings true. Right here in this
brief passage and in this one item of
electric railroad construction he ac-
counted for nearly tenth Of the in
creased valuation. which later as a can
didate he crticises, intimating that it is
exorbitant and unreasonable and done
for the purpose Of wringing more taxes
from the people.
In which shall we place the more con-
frence, Davis the legislator or Davis the
Candidate?

In the Matter of
the Maine Reports.

1t is easy enough to present string
OF figures representing alleged differ
ences in state expenditure and call it an
argument. 1t is not SO easy, however.
to fool the people in campaign of edu-
cation as 1t may seem. The democratic
papers are publishing two sets of figures
supposed to represent the expenditures
for the salaries and expenses of state
officers in the years 1882 and 1908 re-
specuvely. And they give the totals for
such expenditures as IS for 1903
and $76,590.62 for 1882, making an in
crease of $175,556-36. because Of which
the democrats charge the republican
state administration with terrible ex-
travagance. Recently the Lewiston
Journal called attention to the fact that
included in the list Of such expenses
for the year 1903 and lacking in 1881
were several items such as there:
s1z,5oo for county attorneys: $4,000 for
stenographers to the Justices Of the SUI
preme judicial court and $500 for the
reporter of decisions Inasnuch Is these
officials al existed and were supposedly
being paid 3ox tteir work in 1882 the
The Republican journal., 1904-08-25

Journal questioned the fairness of the
list.
The Waterville Sentinel, however, an
swered this argument with a bubble.
1t allowed that the Journal and every
body else ought to know that in 1882
county attorneys and judges stenogra-
piers were paid by the counties and not
by the State at all. an dthat the law re-
lating to the reporter of decisions has
been changed SO that instead
of $500 and royalties on the Maine
reports he now gets a salary of
$500. True the Journal should know
these things and probably does. But
though true they do not change the force
OF the argument. State expenditures
are only important as they are RESPONSE
Bile for taxation and thus affect the citi-
zsn's pocket book. And how was the
individual citizen of Maine any better
on tn 1882 when he was paying for the
salaries Of county attorneys and stem
ographers in his county tax than he was
IN 1903 when he paid for the same sal
aries IN his State tax? The very changes
in the Law to which the Sentinel directs
attention furnish the reason why such
items SHOULD not be included in enm-
The Republican journal., 1904-08-25

parative list. There can be no real
comparison when they are included.
But the Sentinel lays especial stress
upon the item concerning the reporter
of decisions; and incidentally dis
closes the unfairness of democratic
argument in general. 1t states with a.
great deal of apparent disgust that in
1872 the lawyers were paying for the
reports as they ought to do and that
now the State has added $4,000 to the
reporters salary in order that the law
yers may get their books cheaper. The
lawyers are getting their reports cheap
er, that is true. In 1882 they paid 81
each for books which now cost them the
TAR and reasonable price of s1.75. But
the extra cost to the State isn't $4,000.
Far from it. In 1882 the State paid the
rel $500 salary and paid 81 each for
eoo copies of each volume of reports The
total cost was $1,000 except when extra
volumes were needed and those, of
course, cost 81 each. Now the State pays
$500 and s1.75 each for 500 copies of each
volume of reports. The total cost is,
therefore, $4,000, or 5000 instead of $4,000
increase. And extra volumes only cost
aL7s each. X in the course Of time the
The Republican journal., 1904-08-25

State comes to need another hundred
copies or SO, the balance will be in the
States favor as compared with the old
law.
And that isn't all there is to the report
question. Four hundred private citizens
of Maine are enabled by the new law to
save wa each per year, making a saving
OF $500 to them The State pays a little
more at the present time but has estab-
hshed vastly more busnesslike and
just system, calculated in future years
to save it money, and the lawyers and
all others who desire them are enabled
to buy the reports at q fair price The
Sentinel says the lawyers ought to pay
for the reports. So they had so long
as they are to be had at a fair price. But
is there any reason why the lawyers
should pay the salary of a court officer?
Why should not that salary be charge
able to litigants as we'll as to attorneyso
And finally, why should the State pay an
exorbitant price for it's needed quota of
reports just for the sake of getting rid
of paying salary to necessary official?
