they landed at Plymouth rock. 1t was
not very much Of a Thanksgiving, for
they did not feel that they had very
much 10 be thankful for, but was rath-
or a revival of the English harvest

HE MORTGAGE TAN

During the last session OF the Leg
islature this newspaper, along with
q number OF Others in the State, ad-
yocated the repeal OF the existing
tax on mortgages as unfair and as a
heavy burden on the property owner
compelled to borrow on his property.
As the law now stands 1t is virtually
double taxation. Each mortgage is
taxed and the property on which 1t
Is a lien is also taxed. Now money
Is lent to the property owner at D
per cent, and on this loan the lender
is bound to pay the regular rate OF
taxation, State and county, or State
and city, as the case may be, so that
his interest is reduced much below
the face interest value OF the loan.
1t goes without saying that when ap-
plication is made to him for a loan
he takes this tax into consideration
lie calculating the rate he shall charge
and the result is that the man who
owns the property must, in addition
to the regular tax on his property,
pay an added tax in the shape OF a
higher rate OF interest. The law, as
It now stands, for this reason is a
bad one, and we hope it will be re-
pealed, and along with it, it might
not be bad idea to also repeal the
income tax law, which is today prac-
tically dead letter on our statute
books. The whole system OF tax
alton needs careful attention IRON
the next Legislature.

When we first heard OF theproposi-
tion OF the present administration
to issue Panama bonds to the
amount OF $4,000, 900 and interest
bearing treasury notes to the amount
OF 800, 100000, in order to allay
the money stringency in the country,
we ventured the prediction that in
spite OF the fact that administration
officials declared that there was no
: analogy between the present bond
issSis and the Cleveland issues in
1898, Yet Che Republican, -ould End
it necessary in tnScamTign OF 1908
to make some explanations which
would be very embarrassing. 1t APP
pears that already some OF the lead
ers OF the Republican organization
are preparing, whether inadvertent-
ly or otherwise, to make itstill hard
or for the administration to salts
iactorily explain its recent action.
No less light than Hon. Leslie NJ.
Shaw, recently Secretary OF the
Treasury, says that the present f.
nancial furry is due to precisely the
same causes that brought on the
panic In 1898, viz: Extravagant
living, a plethora OF undigested Sc
curities and too much denunciation
OF American business methods. Can
It be pos ible that at this late day
the Republican are going to relieve
she Democrats Of the responsibility
OF the 1893 panic? II so, they have
been forced to It by finding them
selves in the same box which the
