Over S2f, 900, 900 Rural Free DeHv-
cry WH Cost the United States.

The rural free delivery will cost the
government over S2l 100000 for the
present fiscal year. Six years ago it
started as an experiment with an appro-
priation of few hundred thousand dol
lars, with Machen at the head The
appropriation for this year was S20,Sl0,-
600. This, together with an additional
allowance of 100000, will be spent. Last
year the total was Sl5000000. For the
next fiscal year the total is S25,0O0,O00.
1t is officially stated that the expen-
dtures of the postofiice department so
far exceed the revenues by Sl5,000,0O0,
and will probably reach S16,000,000 be-
fore the close of the year. The treasury
has to meet this deficit. But for rural
free delivery the deficit would not exist
and the postoffice department would be
paying its own expenses. ''-Kalamazoo

He leaves to mourn his loss, one son,

EdiF0ri 0I Comment.
The Tax Commission.

There is a bill before the legislature
amending that section OF the general tax
law which creates tax commission.
This phase of our taxing system has
been the source of a great deal OF dis
satisfaction, and created more dissension
than almost any other of its provisions
The history of the legislation creating
it dates back to 1895, when the law
creating an official whose title was that
of state statistician was enacted. The
powers and duties of this officer were to
gather statistics showing the value of all
property and the proportion of the taxes
paid by each particular class of property.
After two years trial of this method to
remedy the evils existing, this law was
repealed However, enough had devel-
oped to warrant further proceedings,
and in 1899 a commission was created
giving more authority with larger appro-
priations to carry out its provisions.
The constitution was amended providing
for the direct taxation of railway corpo-
rations upon an assessment to be made
by this commission, and rate that
should average that paid by other prop
erty throughout the state. In 1903 the
law was further amended, enlarging the
powers of the commission and adding
two members. Then the trouble COM
menced.
This commission, comprised of five
members with equal authority, became
unwieldy, and no matter what subject
came under discussion the majority was
so meagre that the minority could justify
their position in their own minds, so the
value of their work was lost.
In the equalization between railroad
and the real and personal property of the
state, the discussion in time became con-
tention, and in what seemed to be their
haste to justify their position, two mem
bers furnished to the attorneys of the
railroads certain affidavits setting forth
the opinion that in their judgment GER
tain properties were over appraised,
while other members as strenuously
maintained that, as compared with the
balance of the property of the state,
it was none too high.
Since that episode but little credence
is given by the majority of the assessing
officers, and wherever attempts have
been made to carry out the provisions of
law, giving the tax commission power to
add to individual assessments, opposition
has met them and criticism of their
methods until their work is of compare
lively little value.
With a commission comprised of a
smaller number, with their powers of
assessment limited to assessing districts
and classes of property, their usefulness
can be maintained. There is bill be-
fore the legislature at present along the
lines indicated here and should be en-
acted into law.

SDring Brook Trout.

One of the entertainments to be given
President Roosevelt by the citizens of
Chicago will be a banquet at the audi
forum. Among the delicacies to be
served will be brook trout that will be
furnished by the Spring Brook Trout Co.
of Kalamazoo.
Van Buren, county will be able in the
near future to supply this delicacy, unless
the plans of the Glen Spring Brook
Trout Co. fail, and the chances of this
happening are few. This enterprise is
conducted by the Bassetts father and
SOM of Paw Paw and an elder brother of
+. r. who lives in Chicago. This ven
ture is still in its infancy, but old enough
to warrant the belief that it will prove a
profitable one il not strangled by the
enactment of hostile legislation.
We expect to be able to present our
readers an interesting article illustrated
by cuts from photographs taken at the
hatchery soon.

icing cars. In the same connection it is
noted that large number of railroads,
including the Michigan Central, Lake
Shore, New York Central and others, are
preparing to conduct their own refrig-
orator car business hereafter, which leads
to the supposition that the Armour's
