What Taxation Should Be.
Favet teville Observer

The Richmond 7imes-Dispatch
gives this definition of the duty of
the State in it's exercise Of the power
to tax: when the State undertakes
to assess taxes against its citizens
and compel them to pay the sum SO
assessed. it then becomes the bounden
duty OF the State to employ every
means at hand to make the assess
ment fair and equitable. so that the
burden of taxation shall fall upon
each and every citizen according to
his ability to pay. Our protest is
against double taxation and unjust
taxation in all its forms; against any
system which diScriminates against
some and in favor OF others. The
system should be so adjusted as to
make the burden and benefits fall
eqnitably upon ALL" The Times
Dispatch is right There is no
greater abuse of the power OF govern
ment than the inequality of taxation
which, by one device or another, is
enforced in some parts, perhaps many
parts, OF this country.

There is a public library in Balti-
more that has a regulation by which
any member wanting a particular
book which is not ''in" can, by pay
ing a small sum, secure the next
turn; and. upon the books coming
in, the librarian sends him a notifca-
ton.
In this connection an attache OF
the library tells of an amusing incl
dent. 4 member desired to get a
copy OF the novel entitled The Girl
He Left Behind Him" The book not
being in, he made the customary de-
post, and. in due course, received a
notification. This the members wife

ing Judgment that was signed by
Judge Henry Bryan:
This cause coming on to be heard
upon the complaint and answer, the
following issues were agreed upon
by the counsel of the respective par

pleadings, to-wit:
First. Are the charges made OF

defendant, as set out in the plead
ings. true?"
Second. What damages, If any.

The Jury was thereupon empanel-
ed to try the said issues, and bis
honor held that. the burden of the
second issue being upon the plaintiff
and the burden of the first issue be-
ing upon the defendant, the plaintiff
had the right and was required to
first introduce evidence.
The plaintiff. by his counsel, then
stated to the court that he would in
troduce no evidence at this stage OF
the case, bearing upon the second
issue.
The defendant, thereupon an
nOunced, through it's counsel, that it
would introduce no evidence bearing
upon the first issue.
The court thereupon instructed
the jury that the burden OF the first
issue being upon the defendant, and
it having introduced no evidence,
the answer to that issue should be
No" and that the plaintiff having
introduced to no evidence bearing on
the second issue, the answer there
to should be nominal damages, to-
wit: one penny.

is the result The plaintiff, who

by the Times in its effort to discover

AS time goes on the big heartedness
of the country editor becomes more
apparent. The large majority of the

the return Of the son to his bereaved

that of governmental aid in the find

to their parents by allowing free cir
culation of descriptive cards to be
displayed in every postoffice within
the possible zone of access. This plan
could be made feasible, with certain
restrictions and limitations and GER

ments.

w. E. Willett, general manager
of the Lake View Traction Co.,
was here last Monday looking
after the interests of his COM
pany.
According to Mr.. Willett, work
on the electric railway from
Memphis to Lake View will begin
Aug. 5th aud will be completed
in four months, The line will
start in Memphis somewhere
about Trigg and Lauderdale Ave.
and Will run in q south westerly
direction to Whitehaven, thence
west to within about two miles OF
Lake View, where it will curve
one mile south in order to avoid
the immense hills east of the
lake. 1t will be about fifteen
miles in length and will be double

1t is the intention of the COM
pany, Mr.. Willett says, to spend

improvements around the lake.
The power house will be located
at Lake View and will give en-
ployment to number of persons.
The present hotel there will be
thoroughly remodeled and a large
restaurant will be built in addi-
ton. All amusements common
to suburban resort will be
