PlTCHFoRk CUT ARTERY.
Union City Farmer Nearly Lost His
Life,

Life.
Union City, Mich, Sept. Mr.. J. S.
Dunks, prominent farmer living two
miles west of this city, met with =
most peculiar accident, which nearly
proved fatal. He was walking to the
fields carrying a pitchfork OYER his left
shoulder, when he felt a crSmp in the
hand holding the fork handle. Before
he could bring his other hand into use
to hold the fork 1t slipped back over
his shoulder and one of the sharp tines
penetrated his left leg below the knee.
He thought it nothing but scratch
until upon looking down he beheld a
stream Of blood squirting from his leg.
Then he knew he had severed an az
terry and attempted to stop the flow
Of blood with his fingers. This was Of
no avail, however, and he started for
the house, about forty rods distant
The loss of blood caused him to faint.
but fortunately he was observed by
members of the family, who came 10
his assistance. Even then he nearly
died before the flow of blood could be
stopped.

turned them topsy-turvey, stealing the
pennies out of the children's banks

ter collecting it at each place.

fellow, not us; raise the tax OF the cor
porations and the rich, and leave us en-
tirely alone.
The assessed valuation of personal
property in 1899, the year before the
tax commission, was Sl42,33O,37G. In
1902, just three years, by the earnest
efforts OF the tax commission, ii was in
creased to 1891 ,420,727, an actual in
crease of Sls9, 900, 35l, more than double,
an &C ual increase of 1872 per cent.
For the previous thirteen years the
Increase was only about S3.000,000.
Think of 1t, 1872 per cent or Sls9.O90,35l,
that had never seen the tax roll, added
In these years!
Is the commission doing the work?
The railroads have been taxed prior to
1908 by per cent. on their gross earn
ings. In 1901 the legislature changed
the method similar to that of other
property and the tax commission charg-
ed with the work of valuing the prop
perty and levying the tax thus adding
to our school fund Sl,500.000.
The objection has been made that the
expense of the commission is great,
while our taxes are no less. The actual
cost of the commission to a man as
sessed $4,000 is 30 cents year. If our
taxes are no less the difficulty lies not
with the commission-for they have
more than doubled the taxable property
but with large state and county APP
preparations and expensive public
work.
The tax commission is good thing,
and we will realize it more as time
affords the opportunity for the better
operation of its purposes Of work.
John j. Whelan said there are two
sides to the question, and insists the
people have the right to expect that the
tax rate be less than formerly. But our
taxes are more. He thinks the COM
mission is as susceptible to influences
as are supervisors. The masses pay
their taxes. the rich men does not.
