UNIFORMITY OF LAWS.

II is now proposed to agitate the
need of uniform laws on taxation in
the different states. To advance the
cause, convention is to be held in Co.
lumbus, o., in November, to which
representatives from every state will
be invited as well as students'and pro-
fessors in universities. Both theoret-
ical and practical men will be heard
The convention is called by the ma
tional conference on state and local
taxation with the approval of Cover
nor Harris of Ohio and the Ohio board
of trade. Immediate uniformity of tax
laws is not expected The idea is to
bring men who study taxati.A together
and to get the best thought of the time
before the delegates. who will return
to their respective states and use
their influence before legislatures. 1t
is true that much property escapes
taxation because of the different laws
of states and that the same class of
property pays widely varying rates in
the different states.
Demands for uniformity in laws are
numerous. The divorce congress ad-
vocates uniformity in divorce and
marriage laws. Insurance men think
there should be uniformity in lnsur-
ance laws, or national control should
prevail. Students of sociology counsel
the same laws in all the states to gov
ern the parole Of prisoners. The Tor
rens land law for the registration of
titles, enacted in this state last win
ter, is uniformity law The national
association of members Of the bar has
often recommended uniformity in GER
tain kinds of legislation. The move
ments for uniformity appear to go
along with the movement for increased
national control and. in fact, they are
national rather than state The mod
ern states rights advocates have rea-
son to be concerned about the conven-
tons and congresses to promote the
same laws ON given subject in all
1he states.-Tacoma (Wash.) Ledger.

clearing his throat, adding, "When Oil
