 Farmers Organizing.
 The producers of cotton in Alabama mean business in their organization un- der the Southern Cotton association. They are showing this by giving their money as well as their time and talents in the fight against the spectators and manipu- lators of the market.
 Yesterday w. H. Seymour president of the Alabama division of the Southern Cotton association, addressed a meeting Of citizens at Scale, Russell county. Not only farmers but lawyers, merchants and others were present, and at the conclusion Of MT. Seymour's address joined the asso- ciation.
 SiXty-three persons paid the initiation fee of $1 each promptly and cheerfully. Among these every lawyer fin the county except one. This present movement to se- cure living prices for the south's great staple seems bound to succeed. It is strictly non-politeal but 1t means =tren- uous business.

once the inalienable legislative right
 to offer. debate. and vote upon amend
 ments One amendment to this mon
 strosity that the Senate should con slider is a proposition to make two
 States of Arizona and New Mexico as
 soon as each shall have population requisite to entitle it to two mem bers of Congress under the present apportionment. New Hampshire, Vermont and Rhode Island surely could not oppose that in daylight, and it is not possible that Delaware would oppose it in the dark, even. We are not quite positive that this suggested amendment is constitutional. but we are confident that 1t is not half as unconstitutional as that legislative Caesarean operation by which West Virginia got to be state.
 'Tn the old days, Northern states men who adhered to the South were "doughfaces." The Western states man who sides with the East on 8 sec tional question is not yet christened. This Statehood bill is as sectional as the fugitive slave law, and the West is going to be in rage over it one of these days, if the scheme shall be fully consummated."
Bisbee daily review., 1906-02-27

simple fact ought eternally to con erty as a makeshift too clumsy to be retained in any form by a civilized community a day longer than it is absolutely necessary to provide requi- site public revenue.
 Tn epersonal property tax, like the income tax, is open to the objection that it is part of human nature to object to answering impertinent or in- quisitCrial questions about ones pri- vate affairs. Often there are bust ness reasons why the information should not be disclosed. A concern in difficulties, which it might other wise pull out of, may be seriously hurt, if not ruined, by the premature disclosure of decline in the value of its personally or in the amount of money it receives in given time.
 The easiest taxes to collect are those which subject the payer to no annoyances in the assessment or pay ment, and in the assessment of which he has no opportunity for falsifica- tion. The internal revenue tax on tobacco, distilled and malt liquors is paid without murmur, since its only inconvenient incident is the higher price of the article purchased. The internal revenue tax which requires the citizen to personally affix a stamp to every check he signs or telegram he sends or to every legal document executed is universally voted a bore md a nuisance, and legislators who continue that form of taxation a month longer than is absolutely nee. assary are likely to take a vacation at home.
 Death and taxes are considered by the majority of mankind as equally inevitable, and the one as only less odious than the other The true phil osophy is to make both as easy as possible, and at the taxation end of he combination one of the most ef. fectual steps to this end is to cut out the personal tax.
