Fall Tailor-Made Suits.

women are really going to walk
this fall, says Grace Margaret Gould /,
the fasoion editor, in the September
Womsn's Home Companion. "Look
at the new tailor.made suits and you
know 1t. No drill sergeant could be
more trig and smart than the fall
tailor.made girl.
ut is the new short skirt that gives
the cachet to her costume. 1t must
be remarked right here that this
shortness or brevity of skirt 80 pecu-
liarly new that 1t actually requires
definition. The short skirt of year
ago would be regarded hopeless
lv long to-day, while the short
skirt of to-day would have seemed a
hopeless misft year ago. So much
for the caprices of Fashion. Women,
however, must think twice before
accepting this short skirt. They
must remember their individuality
and realize that what would be
becomingly short for one woman
would be outrageously short for
another. Women should know their
good and bad points and always dress
with them in mind. It is hardly
necessary to suggest that short ski
will never diminish the size of large
hips nor the length of long feet.
Nevertheless, the trotteur, or
sidewalk skirt. as it is so often called,
will he all the go this fall and wiuter.
The fashionable trotteur skirts yill
vary in length from two to five inches

say that more money will be spent In
shoes than for many a season past"

TAXING CREDITS.

In his remarks at the state tax COM
mission meeting, Mr.. Derthick, MAS
ter OF the Ohio State Grange.) alluded
to the fact, that at Mt Vernon and
Bellefontaine the savings bank de-
posits earned 3 per cent and the tax
rate was 4. A tax system that re-
quires such a payment is grievously
unjust. A great deal of this business
is not SO bad, but It is bad enough to
turn the state into community Of
law violators and false swearers.
Il is a calamity that this abuse
should remain another year. The harm
done in one year will outweigh all the
benefit of the taxation for a century.
Laws that do not conduce to honor
and Justice are uncivilized and un-
christian.
Mr.. Chamberlain, Of The Ohio Far
mer, spoke to some effect on the tax
proposition. He made number Of
excellent suggestions, and upon the
matter now referred to, he said: /:
amend the constitution to permit
levying a tax OF one-quarter or one
half Of per cent on the value of all
evidences Of Indebtedness and re-
quire all such evidences to be listed
to be legal" There Is sensible sug-
gestion. ard II has been tried in 9TH
er states with success.
One thing is sure, It will collect
more money than the present system
does, and II will save the state from
disgracing itself. The people are not
aware Of the enormity of the offense
against the true principles of taxation
and legislation now being perpetrated
under the present system. OF all de-
vices planned against the prosperity
OF people. that which aims at their
integrity is the most fatal-Ohio State

In all the various suggestions Of the
referendum in relation to schemes Of
government involving large expendi-
lures of rublic money, nothing is said
as to the rights of the taxpayers in
passing judgment upon the projects.
In business AFFAIRS. such matters are
referred to the stockholders OF the cor
porations interested, and only stock
holders may pass upon them. In q
municipal community, the stock
holders are the taxpayers. And in all
matters involving the expenditure Of
their money which It may be consider
ed advisable to submit to the test OF q
public ballot their interests should be
considered in the voting. To permit
great army of non-taxpayers to par
ticipate in this expression of opinion,
and possibly to outweigh, BY their
votes, the deliberate judgment Of those
who have the greatest interest at
stake-the taxpayers-cannot be look
ed upon as an act Of Justice.
In a community where suffrage IL
so cheap, where the irresponsible, un-
interested vote is large, a referendum
system which exposes the interests Of
the taxpayers to, the votes Of those
who have absolutely no financial in
terest in government Is absolutely in
defensible. And yet, when these
matters are under consideration, there
are few to raise their voices in favor
of those who make government pos
sible by providing the money for its
maintenance.
Taxation without representation"
was one of the evils and expressions
that led to the American revolution
and the freedom Of the American
colonies from the rule Of the mother
country. Taxation imposed by the
overwhelming vote Of the untaxed
would be an evil just as great.-Wil-
mington (Del.) Every Evening.
