Ii does not take as much
money to live in this country,
or in small town, as it does to
live i'm the city. Tread the other
day that it cost $1,000 to bring
up a city boy and educate him
and dress him well. | said to
myself: That is because every
thing in the city has to be bought
and living is high" But | be-
gan to study. and | found out
that even a country boy costs his
parents a good deal.
When you count what a boy
eats. and what he wears, and
the school books he has to have,
and the doctor bills that have to
be paid when he gets the measles
or the scarlet fever. he will cost
his folks at least 800 year. |
guess if a boy is pretty bad to
smash things or to kick his shoes
out. he costs more than that.
so when | am p and old enough

cost my father more than ~, 900.
Mother cooked my victuals,
made my clothes and patched
them washed and lroned for me-.
took care OF me when ! was a
little fellow and whenever ! got
sick. and she never charged any
thing for that. If she were dead
and father had TO hire all that
done. il would cost him another
500 a year or more, and that Is
81 900 worth of work mother will
have done for me by the time |
nm a man Four thousand dol

of that?
These are hard times.
When parents put $1,000 in a
boy. what have they a right to
expect of him? 1t is fair for a
boy to play truant Ht shool? Is
it fair for him to play bell. go in
swimming, or nang around town
all of the time when maybe his
fathers potatoes are not dug nor
the wood brought in for his
mother? Is it fair for him to
disappoint them by swearing,
drinking and smoking?
Some of our parents have put
about all the property they had

make spittoons and whiskey

enactment of the necessary legislation

agreed upon, in brief outline, was SIM

full in the alcohol campaign. AS the
chairman of the committee of Parcels
Post of both the 40th and 41st ses-

into the matter thoroughly and gave
my hearty support to this plan for
a union of all friends of postal i'm

ties in perfecting such organization
have proved very great, and organiza-

TAXATION.

MN WV
The following is from the address
of C. B. Kegley, w. NJ, at the recent
annual meeting of Washington State
Grange:
Two years ago l urged every
Grange in the state to take up the
study of taxation in all it's phases,
earnestly and seriously and | am
proud of the way members of the order
have responded, for l feel that the
present favorable tax situation in our
state is largely due to Grange interest
and activity We are especially inter-
ested in the subject now because a
vote is to be taken in November on a
proposed amendment to the constitu-
ton of our state which if adopted will
permit the legislature to make such
changes in the tax laws as may seem
wise from time to time, in order to
secure a more equitable distribution
of the tax burden and encourage in
dustry.
A national conference on state and
local taxation was held at Columbus,
Ohio in November 1907. Delegates
appointed by the governors of thirty
one states were in attendance, many
ficials. and thirty-three universities
were represented. These students and
practical tax administrators unani-
mously agree on this resolution,
among others:
Whereas, the greatest inequalities
have arisen from laws designed to tax
all the widely differing classes OF prop
erty in the same way, and such laws
IT, iuo IN, a rrn611nf. on
of revenue; and, whereas, the appro-
pirate taxation of various forms OF
property is rendered impossible by the
restrictions upon the taxing power
contained in the constitutions OF many
of the states; therefore,
Resolved, That all state constitu-
lions requiring the same taxation OF
all property, or otherwise imposing re-
straints upon the reasonable class1fl-
cation of property should be amended
by the repeal of such restrictive pro-
visions"
Our constitution now requires the
uniform taxation of all property, and
in my address two years ago l pointed
out that this requirement prevented
the adoption of tax system more suit
ed to modern conditions than ours.
The pending constitutional amend
ment will remove this obstacle to
progress and is in line with progress
sive thought as indicated by the reso-
luton of the National Tax Confer
ence.
The special tax commission or ONO
recommends, and the legislature mas
submitted to the people, an amend
ment similar in effect to the one pro-
posed in Washington and designed to
give the legislature power to classify
property for taxation.
Missouri will vote this fall on an
amendment of this general character.
Both Ohio and Missouri now nave tax
provisions similar 70 ours that nave
proved obstacles to progress
