Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1906-08-10

A owns a farm or a house, assessed for,
say $1,000 and b has $1,000 in the saw
ings bank or other investment where
1t pays its proportion OF taxation. A
borrows that $1,000 of B and gives B
his note for it, and gives, to secure pay
ment of the note, a mortgage on his house
and farm B has to pay taxes on that
$1,000 when it is loaned to A the same
as when 1t was invested otherwise. He
doesn't pay any taxes on the mortgage.
There is no such thing as a tax on a mort
gage in Vermont, the tax is only upon
the note which the mortgage secures,
AS house OF farm pays its taxes; b
pays his taxes on the note which he
holds against A. If A has personal prop
erty subject to taxation he can offset
that by the debt he owes B. but the law
does not allow an offset on real estate.
Now there is no double taxation in this
state of affairs. The only question is
whether our law of exemption ought to
be extended so as to allow a deduction
from the assessment of real estate on
account of debts owing Does anybody
believe in that proposition, or that any
Vermont legislature would seriously con-
slider such a proposition? The other
alternative is to exempt from taxation
money loaned, secured by mortgage on
real estate in Vermont, so that would
have to pay no taxes on the $1,000 he
loaned to A.
A law making such a provision would
simply act to the advantage Of the money
lender. What ought to be done, If any
thing, in that line. is to provide that
money loaned, secured by mortgage on
real estate in Vermont, and loaned at a
low rate OF interest, say per cent, might
be exempt from taxation. That would op-
crate to help the borrower to get his money
at a low rate of interest. So the whole
question OF taxation relative to money
secured by mortgage is not one Of double
taxation, for 1t is not that at ALL 1t is
simply a question OF exemption from tax
alton, and as to how far the exemption
ought to apply. Efforts have been made
| in the Vermont legislature to enact some
law of this kind. These efforts have been
made by the Republican party. The DIFF
ficulty that has been encountered is the
objection that the result is likely to help
the rich man and not the poor man, and
that the reduction in the grand list which
would result from the exemption OF
the loans of the wealthy from taxation
would increase the taxes ON the poor
mans property. This may be a sound OBJ
lection or it may be fallacious. The
question merits the careful study ant
attention OF experts. ana that is what th'
Republican platform demands. 1t ma!
be noted that the Democratic candidat'

Mr.. Clements Record on Taxation.

p. w. Clement, a member of the YER
mont state Senate from Rutland county
on the 27th day Of November, 1900, as
chairman Of the finance committee, re-
ported adversely from his committee a
bill to increase the state revenues by
an increased tax on corporations and
this bill upon his recommendation was
refused a third reading. This bill to in
crease the tax on corporations originated
in and was passed by the House,
Later on the same day Mr. Clement as
chairman of the committee on finance
reported favorably a bill providing for
a state tax for the payment of state ex-
penses. According to the state treas
urer's report this bill cost the taxpayers
$26S.522.49 and 1t was the last direct
state tax assessed by the Vermont legis-
lature.
Had Mr.. Clement not defeated the bill
for increasing the tax on corporations
there would have been no state tax in
1901, and there has been none since.
The people of the state paid $26s, ,522.49
because Of this transaction, while the de-
feat Of the corporation tax bill saved the
Rutland railroad. OF which Mr. Clement
was then president and the principal
stockholder, s2s,199.S4 in 1901.
This is the same Mr.. Clement who is
now asking the voters Of Vermont to
elect him governor.

Mr.. Clements Figures on the Waterbury
Insane Asylum.

DIR. Don Grout, superintendent of the
state hospital for the insane at Water
bury, has made a reply to the statistics
used by Percival w. Clement on the
stump. comparing the per capita ex-
pense at Waterbury with Massachusetts
institutions. There are 12 hospitals for
the insane in Massachusetts, and Mr..
Clement used the figures for six. DR..
Grout says the last report from Medfeld
does not give the per capita cost, but
that it states that there has been an in
crease over the two previous years owing
to the higher cost OF living and increase
of wages. Mr. Grout points out the
unfairness Of comparing Waterbury with
the Medfield hospital and Worcester in
sane asylum in any case.
The Medfield hospital has about 1000
chronic. quiet, incurable insane cases,
and the Worcester asylum has about 700
Of the same class These cases are Sc
lected from the other hospitals and are
sent there that they may be made as
comfortable as possible while they exist.
During the year 1905, out of the 2300
patients in these two hospitals not one
was discharged as recovered, much i'm
proved. or improved. While in the
waterbury nOSplldl uuIlilB Nile DlSInAdA
term ending June S0 1906, $50 were dis
charged under those headings and at the
last monthly meeting OF the state super
visoTs OF the insane, July 2s, IL such were
discharged.
DR.. Grout says: Anyone at all con-
versant with insane people knows that as
a rule the acute cases in which recovery
may be expected are much more ex-
cited and violent on admission and re-
quire much more care and attention than
the chronic cases that never viii recover.
1t would be as fair to compare the ex-
pense of caring for a patient with ty-
phoid fever with one who had chronic
rheumatism as to compare those two
classes of insane.
The Massachusetts, Institutions have
special appropriations for new buildings,
repairs and improvements. For instance
the last report shows that at Medfield
$50. .S11.94 was spent in repairs and inn
provements and $166, ,00077 for new build
ings. None Of this great expense enters
into the per capita cost at Medheld. At
Waterbury two carpenters, two masons,
plumber, painter and electrician are con-
stantly employed, and their salaries and
all the materials fer their use enter into
the per capita figuring. All Of the varied
enlargements and improvements at
Waterbury the past year are enumerated
| by DIR. Grout. The expense for this work
comes into the per capita statistics,
while at Medheld II would have been a
part Of a special account.

The horny-handed Rollin, the benevo-
lent agent of one of the philanthropic life
insurance companies. whose heart beats
in unison with every human wrong and
whose purse strings open automatically
to aid with prodigality every good cause,
touched to the quick by the degradation
of labor, is a picture which would even
make a clock strike. Rollin had his little
day of fame in the Democratic conven-
ton, with an opportunity to spout inter
mittently, and at the close he forced
upon the departing delegates his posters
of two sizes containing a garbled quota
tion from The Phoenix. We say garbled,
because there was nothing TO show the
beginning or the end of the statement
quoted or the boast which caused II to be
written. But this was Rollins way OF
playing politics, eminently character
istic and fair as when he declared that
the secret of the Proctor wealth was the
sale of headstones to the government at a
fabulous sum. and that 1000 or 5000 pau
pers with cards to designate them were
roaming about in Proctor.

An Absolute untruth.

The Democratic-Clement committee is
'The Why of State Expenses" and the
only charge that is made against any
officer of the state of Vermont is that
Fuller c. Smith, when he was clerk to
the railroad commission way back in 1895
and 1896, charged pay for 320A days in
one year. This charge is substantially
and clearly made in this pamphlet. 1t
is absolutely and wholly untrue. Fuller
c. Smith never charged for that number
of days in any one year, he never re-
ceived pay for that amount of time in
any year, and the vouchers and books in
the state auditors office show that he did
not More than that the data which Mr..
Clements expert accountant got from the
state auditors Office show that he did
not. 1t is wholly and entirely a fabri-
cation of Clement or his literary bureau.
What do the voters think of a candidate
who has to resort 10 such things as that
in order to give support to his candidacy?
II Clement and his campaign speakers
are manly. they will openly and publicly
retract this charge every time they speak
in this campaign. We shall see If they
do it.
1t is fair to the Rutland Herald and
creditable to that paper to say that when
shown its error it corrected it. But the
false accusation is still being circulated
by Mr.. Clements literary bureau and by
his stump speakers.
