TAXPAYERS AND SUFFRAGE.
Restriction Of Voting to Real Estate
Owners Would Mean Class Antagonism.

Sir: II the people OF this city, or any other. IN
derstood who pays the taxes there would De far
greater improvement in government than could
come from conhn1ng municipal suffrage to real
estate owners, proposed by your correspondent
Mr.. Nash
But people know enough OF the ways IN which
taxes are shifted not TO be deiuded as they used
to be with the argument that the property own
ers are the only taxpayers. Every one who lives
or does business in the city makes some contribu-
ton 10 the city revenues Cases frequent
where G tenant pays far more taxes Indirectly
than his landlord finally pays after shifting all he
can. OF course most Of the taxes on business or
business properties are shifted customers in the
prices OF goods.
is an untaxed value because the tax is conmuted
by lessening OF the price paid by the purchaser)
and that the tax buildings IS always shifted 70
the tenants the injustice OF confning the suffrage
to those who really only collect and transmit the
taxes is apparent
Mr. Nash evidently wishes 10 disfranchise the
ignorant voter But what OF the thousands of ten
ants who are responsible and enterprising business
rneu7 Do not they and their interests far outweigh
the twenty thousand persons who own Manhattan
Island and whom Mr.. Nash calls the real owners
OF the city?
Instead OF trying 10 arous' class antagonisrn By
demanding class rule IL would be far better TO
help educate all OF the people 10 a knowledge OF
their real interest In economical government

Sir: In the recent celebration OF the opening OF

Brief mention, however, is made OF Colonel De

was conceived and whose fertile brain developed
the feasibility of connecting New York and New
Jersey by tunnels under the Hudson River and
who sank his private fortune in the enterprise and
was not spared the fruttiou OF his efforts
A fun need of praise should also be awarded TO
the memory of one whose legal acumen and fine

to without even salt to season your sole nubsis-
tence Of fresh meat
The last six weeks OF the march was made on
diet of fresh meat The battalion disbanded
at Los Angeles July 16, 1917 The company re-
enlisted for six months to garrison the port OF San
Diego. Just previous to the discharge Of the bat
TALON Col. J. e. Fremont had declared himself
governor Of California. For this INSTRUMENTATION
he ordered to Washington to be tried by court
martial. A bodyguard of IL men three from each
company of the battalion was chosen to escort him
back to Fort Leavenworth. Kansas. The COM
pany followed up the coast from Los Angeles -
far north as a mission named In their journals as
the mission of st. Francis-the spot, undoubtedly
where San Francisco afterwards built. They
marched east by northern route to TT. Hail. from
there they took southeasterly direction passing
over part Of the territory of Utah 1t after
wards laid out. The company passed through the
northeastern corner of Utah three days before
the pioneers arrived at Salt Lake valley. The
Fremont company continued thence to Ft. Leaven-
worth, thus making The circuit back to that place
complete
Unfortunately the names of this guard have been
lost except the name OF Nathania Vary Jones,
who kept a complete journal Of the trip.

they We're working their way to Utah at Suffers

the society has worked. Letters have been sent
out to descendants of battalion members to which
responses have been received in the form of money
To a considerable amount. The cost of the mem
oral ls to be governed by the amount raised Il
is hoped to complete arrangements for this
memorial. at an early period and before the last
