Lots o Rush

This is the greatest country in
the world for every thing to go
with rush. The trains rush
the automobiles rush. EVERYBODY
is in rush. People rush for a
train and rush tor q seat. Before
the train stops they rush for the
platform. They rush into a
restaurant and rush for a table
and give the waiter rush order.
They rush the food into their
stomach and then rush to doctor
to give them something for indi-
gestion.
A fellow will rush a girl for
short time, rush into an engage
ment with her, rush for license,
rush for preacher to get married,
and pretty soon he is making a
rush for divorce court TO end it
all. But there are rimes when
they don't rush. For instance, a
man will rush into saloon and
never think of rushing out He
will rush from work to dinner and
take his time coming back. He
will lush intc a game of poker for
''just one stack" and never think
of quitting until daylight in the
morning. A woman will rush in
to millinery store or to bargain
counter, with just five minutes to
spare, and after three hours in
vestigation, will come out with.
out purchase, A man will rush
into newspaper office to sub
scribe and then forget about the
editor for years to come. But he
is always in rush when he passes
the office and when he meets the
editor on the street. A man will
rush through life as though lie
were in hurry to have it done
with as coon as possible, but when
the time comes for him to die his
rush is over.-E&,

'EDERAL And STATE TAXES
BY w. M. HAYS.
U. s. Asst. Sec'y of Agriculture.
(From an address on Country
.r-

Investigations to discover how best
to finance movements to improve the
condition of our farmers, our city
workers, and our home-makers have
of most serious consideration. In its
early days, the country being small
and ieopardized by external foes, the
general government reserved the right
to levy indirect taxes, as on imports,
on alcohol and on tobacco. The states
and lesser political divisions, on the
other hand, raise their revenues by
more direct taxation, as on personal
property, on incomes Of corporations
and of individuals, and on inherit
ances.
1t so happens that since the federal
government and the state were al
lowed these sources of income vast
economic changes have taken place,
placing the federal government great.
ly at an advantage as compared with
all the states combined IN securing
taxes. With the enormous develop.
ment of manufactured products and
the increased power of the people to
purchase them, and with the greatly
cheapened transportation resulting
from the circulation of vastly greater
quantities of commodities, the rev.
enues obtained by the federal govern.
ment have enormously increased. The
states, on the other hand, find it i'm.
practicable to secure such large
amounts of public revenue from the
more direct forms of taxation. This is
clearly illustrated by the fact that
the federal government thus secures
in taxes revenues amounting annually
to $S00,000000. This is $40 per
capita, or nearly $50 per family. The
states, on the other hand, annually
bring into their state treasures only
So to SO per capita, or about 100000,
900. 1t should be observed that rev.
enues derived by cities, counties
townships, and other political bodies
make the state and local taxes pre-
sumably somewhat larger than the
federal revenue. The fact that the
state legislator is often chosen under
pledge to keep down state expenses,
while the federal legislator is expect.
ed to secure all he can get for his
state from federal appropriations has
not a little to do with the relatively
larger growth of the federal budget.

AN OHIO IDEA.

1t seems Ohio has had finger in the
making of the Oklahoma constitution,
which has come about through the in
telligent suggestion of Mr.. Allen r.
Foote, commissioner of the Ohio state
board OF commerce. The following
section In the article on revenue and
taxation was drawn by Mr.. Foote;
Section 30.-The legislature shall
require all money collected by taxa
tion, or by fees, fines and public
charges of every kind to be account
ed for by a system of accounting that
shall be uniform for each class of ac-
counts, state and local, which shall be
prescribed and audited by authority of
the state"
That is an important provision. 1t
brings into relief the public business
and makes 1t understandable. A great
deal Of the corruption and reckless
business in the public service results
from the irregular and bunglesome
way OF keeping accounts. Uniformity
encourages care, because mistakes are
easily discovered and explanations are
made unnecessary There is best
way for accounting, and the people
should have the benefit of that best
way; aud 1t is pleasant 10 note that
Oklahoma is opening the way Co get
that advantage through the thoughtful
ness of an Ohio man-Editorial Ohio
