TAX REFORM.

Governor Pardee's plan to revolu-
tionize the revenue system by separat
ing state from city and county taxes
has much to commend it. The pro-
position is to tax public utilities cor
porations certain percentage on
their gross income, and leave the
counties to continue the direct pro-
perty tax as their principal means of
support; as at present. Railroad, gas
and electric, water, and other cor
poration, under this method, would
be called upon to pay almost the
entire cost of maintaining the state
government. 1t is doubtful, however,
whether they would, under the pro-
posed plan, pay more than they have
been doing under the existing system.
One thing is certain, this reform, If
adopted, would cause the corporations
to take a greater interest in state
elections than heretofore. 1t would
not have a tendency to keep them
out of politics, but just the reverse.
The fact that they do in a measure
control politics now, is detrimental
to good government. Their activity
in this direction is deplored as a
menace. And any plan that would
tend to intensity their interest in this
line is apt to be looked upon with
disfavor. Still, notwithstanding this,
it may be questioned whether their
influence, under the reform method,
would not be beneficial rather than
otherwise. Furnishing the major
portion of the funds to run the
government, they would. naturally,
from motives of self-interest. throw
their weight for economy in every
department. They wonld favor the
cutting down of expenses to the
lowest possible notch consistent with
efficiency, because it would mean a
saving to them. On the other hand,
it is possible that it would create
In some quarters spirit of extravag-
ance in state affairs. The people
would perhaps allow their demands
to run riot, simply from cinch
spirit toward the big corporations. 1t
is impossible to gauge from this
standpoint how the proposed revenue
system would work-whether for the
better or worse. To divide the tax
payers into two contending factions
the corporations on the side of econ
omy, the masses careless on this issue,
or perhaps favorlng extravaganza,
because of deep rooted prejudice
against corporations - is a serious
problem.

Of inestimable value in an army so
composed. But instead of encourag-
ing experiences in the use of firearms,
some counties and Incorporated cites
take just the opposite course, and
practically prohibit the establishment
of shooting galleries. Amador county
demands license often dollars per
month for the privilege of running a
shooting gallery; and the city of
jackson, not wishing to be behind In
discouraging such laudable training
schools, requires like Eamount. So
that no shooting gallery can be
carried on within the territory of the
county without being held up for this
outrageous tax. As a result no target
practice school can be started, be-
cause it could not be maintained
under such heavy burden. The
legislature, in the interest of the
public ought to pass a law prohibit
ing any license tax being imposed
upon shooting galleries.

prevail here in Washington where he is
best known. Judge Magoon has just
retired from long and successful. SER
vice in Panama and is apparently better
fitted by education combined with exper-
fence and temperament for handling the
delicate and complicated relations with
our Latin friends and enemies than any
man just at present obtainable. Three
men in this country have become notable
in this couutry's experiments in colonial
ton, Secretary Taft, General Leonard
Wood and Judge Magoon, and of these
only the latter is available for Cuba.
Secretary Taft whose heart is with the
Philippines, feared that by appointing
Judge Magoon to Cuba the Philippines
for which he was slated would suffer and
consequently he urged that some one else
should be found for Cuba. Secretary
Root interviewed with the President and
convinced him that the situation in Cuba
was more critical than that in the Phil
ippines and so it was decided that Judge
Magoon should succeed Secretary Taft at
Havana The work before him in the
Island is likely TO be as difficult and
thankless as that mapped out for any
man. While Panama was problem
when Judge Magoon took charge there it
was simple one compared to the one he
will now undertake and his success even
with the talents he brings to the work is
not by any means assure, but his appoint
ment seems to be highly acceptable TO
Cuba, and the President and people here
believe that the same qualities of pa,
tience honesty. sympathy and insight
which accomplished so much in Panama
will not be entirely wasted on the dis
tracted Island.
