TAXATION BASED ON ECONOMIC
PRINCIPLES.

At the last hearing before the Ohio
Tax Commission, Mrs. Mary f. Lee.
Grange Editor Farm and Fireside and
American Agrlculturist, Westerville,
stated the case as follows: The intol.
cradle burdens resulting from taxation
do. not arise from the power TO tax, but
the methods employed. Warshave been
fought, systems of government over
turned to escape taxation without
representation" This has come
through faulty and imperfect ideas re-.
specting economic questions. Taxa
tion as an art and a science has not
been considered save by few thought.
full students and they have not been
able to test the value of their ideas.
The entire effort has been, on the
part Of taxpayers to get lower valua-
tions and find means of dodging. Is 1t
not time that sound economic prln-
ciples be applied to the matter of
taxation?
Each Industry complains of the in.
justices Of the present laws on that
business, and all are agreed that gross
inequalities and injustices exist. Can
system that has bred such condi-
tions be just? And is there justice
in taxing at the same rate that prop
erty which has a fixed value, with
that property whose value Is determin-
ed by different men, at different times.
One Is the result of fixed economic
flaws world wide In aOnlioatiOn. tho
other simply the opinion of a man
elected to place as low a valuation
as possible on property. The badness
Of this principle should have been
scented without leaving experience to
demonstrate it. Let us amend the
Constitution, rid ourselves of the uni
form rate which experience and
reason alike condemn, and seek sys-
tenn in accord with. corraet economic

town, Pa, the sixyear-old son of a
poor farmer, who has not been in
school a day in his life and can neither
read nor write, has suddenly bios.
somed out into real preacher Some
time ago the boy accompanied his
grandfather on railroad trip. On
entering the depot at Lewlstown juno
tion some travelling men spoke Joking
ly Of the old man. At once the boy
mounted a bench and delivered a ser,
mon on the CruciliXion of Christ, in
which he gave advice to the travelling
men against making light of their ell
ders. One who heard the sermon took
;he boys name and address, and as
sared him that he had an education
that would fit him TO preach before a
bigger audience.

WAS MERELY MAKING WORK.
When Target Practice Was Not SO
important as II Is Now.

'1n recent years" said an ordnance
officer, everything on a war vessel
gives way to target practice. The one
thing a commander is more interested
in than anything else is the record
that his men can make az the ranges.
But there was a time when the man
behind the gun was not recognized
as the most important element in the
efficiency of fighting ship.
"To Illustrate: | was junior officer
on the old Essex many years ago. In
those days we had target practice
once n quarter. We were forced by
regulations 10 eXpend so many rounds
Of ammunition every three months,
and--wcll that was about all there
was to It. It was perfunctory kind Of
practice, and every one was glad
when it was over.
One day we went out for the quar-.
terly practice, anchored the target and
went at It, The targets we used in
those days were three planks fasten-
ed in a triangle. a spar stepped in the
center to hold the canvas which FORM
ed the target proper
Now the gun captain of the for
ward pivot rife was an excellent
marksman, and on his first trial he
sent a shell through the spar, which
smashed it into flinders. That, of
course, stopped the practice, and out
went a boat to tow the wrecked tar
get alongside for repairs.
when it had been patched up, b
was towed back to its place, and firing
was resumed.
Again the same gunner had the
first shot, and again his shell brought
down both the spar and the canvas.
The boat was again sent out, but
when the repaired target was being
towed back to the range, the captain.
who was much out of humor by the
delay, spoke his mind.
Tell Gunner Blank he command.
cd, that If he hits that target again
will put him in the brig'"

TAX DISCUSSIONS
Farmers Have Parliament On
0hiO's Tax Laws.

The farmers of the state are con.
vinced that Ohio's taxation system is
wrong. Al the last meeting of the
State Tax Commission, the agrlcultur-
lists appeared before that body to urge
reforms. After the prepared addresses
were delivered and which have been
published in these columns, those
present entered into animated discus
sion of the subject.
Il have listened all the afternoon"
said c. NJ Freeman. Tippecanoe City,
Secretary National Grange, and have
not changed my mind bit | do not
believe we are state of perjurers. |
believe we are honest and that our
government is not "A failure. | would
never put my hand to a document that
says. We have found a state of per-
Jury and are going to legaliae it.
DR.. w. |, Chamberlain, editor of the
Ohio Farmer, replied, I'VE have
failed for Sc years to tax intangible
property IL seems to me that we
farmers could agree after this long
trial that tho plan we thought would
work but never has worked and
never will work as long as you try
TO tax money at 100 per cent, and
other property at 80 to 40 per cent
of its true value. We have fought IL
out ON this line for SO winters and SO
summers, and We want change. We
want wise commission that will ad-
just the details of taxation, and shall
tax all tangible property once and
prevent double taxation. | don't say
our government is failure, but
wouldn't 1t be well-to change our base
and take a new line Of attack"
Facts stop arguments" said Mr.. It.
