HOW KANSAS BUCKED
THE TWINE TRUST.

In his article in the May Worlds
Work on the Kansas oil fight Isaac
Marcosson tells the significant story
Of how the State bucked the Twine
Trust. Kansas raises more wheat
than any other state in the Union
and the farmers have 20 buy millions
OF pounds OF twinc 20 bind rtheir
sheaves every year. ln 1909 these
farmers were paying the twine trust
an average Of rs cents a pound for
twine. The price Of wheat was low,
they were not making any money
The farmers petitioned the legisla.
ture for relief, and the sum Of
Sr5o, 900 was appropriated for
State twine factory. The constitu-
ton Of Kansas forbids the State to
enter any private business; so the
twine factory, 20 cvade the law, was
established to give employment to
convicts. The supcrin,endcncy Of
the factory was left to the Warden
and the Board Of Directors OF the
Penilentiary The convicts were
taught to make twinc. The next
year the Kansas farmers were buy
ing iwine for VI cents pound.
Every implement store or cross
roads general store in the State was
m d e an agency. The dealer
bought the twine for cents and
made the half cent for selling IT,.
The Kansas farmer bought twinc for
three and four cents a pound less
than his nelQhbor across the line in
Nebraska. The factory soon began
TO earn money. Now it has a sur
plus Of $685. 600, it has paid back
original appropriation Of $r5o, 900
to the State, and i, owns we'll
equipped plant. The factory does
not make enough TO supply an the
farmers in the State, but it has sue.
ceeded in bringing down The price
Of twine everywhere in Kansas to
reasonable figure.

party platforms.

Ubiquitous system by which the

and we pledge the Candidate of this
Convention, when elected to the
Congress OF the United States TO
stand for the interests OF the whole
people in the contest now coming
on between the public interest on
one hand and corporate greed on
the other,
We recognize the disposition on
the part OF the kings OF finance to
organize trusts for the purpose Of
increasing and controlling the price
of the necessaries Of life, and we
therefore pledge the candidate of
this Convention, when elected, to
urge the adoption Of such laws as

icles so controlled by trusts as to
arbitrarily increase the price thereof
to the consumer.
We believe and assert, most EN-
phatically, that taxation for State
purposes should be levied and col
lected upon all persons and corpor-
otions according to the amount and
value of property owned by such
persons or corporations.
That we regard the constantly
broadening corporation laws of this
State, the giving to corporations
chartered privileges over thepeople,
for the sake of competing with
other States in an effort to secure
charter taxes from them, as a men
ace to our rights and liberties and a
dangerous tendency in our legisla-
tive enactments.
We denounce those fake tax
reformers, persons in this State who
for personal and political purp oses
have enacted and now arc carrying
into effect new and radical tax laws
under the pretcnse Of seeking to
give the people relief from taxation.
That we believe the only practical
way TO reduce taxation is TO reduce
public expenditures and call atten.
ton to the recklessly extrayagan.
expenditures Of the past Republican
Legislature. In every branch OF
State government and all our State
institutions we urge economy and
consequent reduction Of taxes
instead Of the devising Of new
schemes for raising public revenue.

Will the Journal tell It's readers,
IL 1t has been enlightened on the
sabject Of taxation, why it is that
personal property is not to be as
scssed under the new tax laws until
1900 ? Will it inform them why
this change was made? THF ARGUS

been slumbering in morbid igno.
