ccual'ze the oon,,t,ons OF all classes
Of property owners.
The lowering and equalizing Of
taxes is the object Of the proposed re-
vision OF methods of mine taxation.
1t is not contended in this case that
more money is needed anywhere in
Arizona. We only need to distribute
more evenly ana tighten the burden.
That is what the Doran hill proposes
To do.
The twenty per cent basis provided
by the Doran bill is not understood at
first glance and those who are oppos-
ing the bill instead OF contributing to
an understanding Of IL seek to confuse
the popular mind by inquiring why
the output Of the mines should not be
assessed At 80 per cent or 100 per cent.
K may be said that the twenty per
cent basis was chosen as the fairer
one as between mine owners, and as be-
ing more nearly an average Of the net
proceeds Of their properties While
higher per cent might he borne by
some Of the mines it would be unjust
to those whose net proceeds are much
less than such a per cent OF the total
output
This is especially true OF many
mines in the development stage which
though very productive Weld their
production nj a cost approaching or
exceeding the value Of l..
Another thing. this basis is not
twenty per cent Of the output as it
comes from the mines; Of what it
would bring there but of what it
actually brings in New York where
the cost Of transportation and hand
ling gives its highest value. We will
suppose that the farmers were taxed
in a similar manner say on twenty
per cent OF their yearly products. not
on the value Of the alfalfa and grain in
the fields or the oranges I'm the or
chards but on their highest values in
distant markets.
In this connection let US look at this
per cent basis in another way. The
cost Of freight. refining, storage and
marketing of copper is estimated for
trade purposes at l2ia per cent so that
the basis under the Doran bin really be-
comes 32la per cent Of the entire gross
product at the mines. What other bus
mess whose assessment IS made in
terms Of its income is taxed higher?

In abandoning the Jim Crow idea the
Oklahoma constitutional convention
gives signs Of more sense than it had
been given credit for. This is quite
apart from the question whether or not
the "Jim CROW" car is a good thing.
The folly lay in the proposal to en-
danger statehood BY the unnecessary
incorporation of the plan in the con-
stitution when the desired effect could
be produced as well after the actual
accomplishment OF statehood.
