Tax Rate Too High.

The tax rate of municipal districts
in Ohio today averages 31a per cent.
The banks of Cleveland pay per cent
on deposits. The tax rate in ottawa.
O., is $40 per 500; banks pay 4
per cent. How can a taxpayer live in
either city II his money is on deposit
there, and be honest? He must do
one Of three things; move out OF the
district, change his investment, or
commit perjury. Experience proves
that he does all three 'Tis true that
II Is too bad that such conditions ex-
list, but It's too bad II Is true that they
do exist, and that public opinion
condones the perjury. for public opin-
ion will never countenance an inius-
tice. That same public opinion would
instantly rebuke a taxpayer who re-
fused TO contribute a reasonable part
of his income to the support OF gov.
eminent. The question Of taxation is
not only a social and economic ques-
tlon, but II is a moral question as
well, and all laws bearing upon the
subject should recognize the moral
aspect of the case.-F. A. Derthick.
Liberty Needed In Taxation.
To give the largest measure of
home rule, the constitution should not
contain any declaration tending to ex'
empt certain classes OF property, II
should not contain any declaration
limiting the tax rate, and 1t should
not declare that all classes Of prop
erty shall be taxed equally. The con
stltution should grant the greatest lib
erty on the subject to the counties
and we may be quite sure that, at
least in the great majority OF cases
the freedom will not be abused.

eutcherins of Deer in Colorado.

Denver.-1t was butchery, it wasn't
sport" said ID. A. Carr of LittletOn, who
was in Denver en- route home Monday
from deer hunting trip in the Meeker
country. You couldn't tempt me to
go up into the mountains again and
witness the slaughter of the past week
The deer were not so plentiful but that
there seemed to be hunter for every
single one, and, although l got mine.
I'm sorry now that l did. 1t doesn't
seem possible that there could be one
deer left in the mountains"
Mr.. Carr called at the state offices
of the game and fish commission with
the intention of reporting what he saw
but found them closed for Columbus
Day. His account Of what he witnessed
bears out the statement of Game Com
missioner Farr that better laws are
needed to protect the game. Robert l..
Spargur Of the state commission says
he believes over 1000 deer will be
killed. These include the does and
, fawns, which are not spared by the
merciless hunters in pursuit of tro-
phies.
Mr.. Spargus says:
Deer will be almost exterminated
this year. We will have to have better
protective laws or Colorado will have
no deer in few years. Last year 1000
deer were killed and this year the num-
ber is twice as big This commission
will have to secure law to close the
season altogether on does and fawns
and only allow few days open on
bucks. Large shipments of deer are
being received each day in Denver"

ITS REMARKABLE SUCCESS DE.
scRIBED BY PRESIDENT OF
COLORADO PRISON AS
SocIATIoN.
MAKING ROADS AND MEN
PRISONERS WORK WITHOUT
GUARDS, AND STATE GETS
GOOD ROADS FOR NOTHING.

Denver-H. V. Johnson, president
of the Colorado Prison Association
and former mayor of Denver. in al
article published this month in The
Good Roads, a magazine issued in
New York, compares the excelldO,
merit system of working prisoners in
this state to the horrors of the con
vict leasing system in Georgia and
other southern states. Colorado and
Georgia authorities are both working
to the same end, that Of having con
victs construct their state highways.
Both states are gaining the end sought
but Georgia roads are being paid for,
it is said, in the blood money of tor
tured men and women, while Colo
RADIO roads are the product of sys
TEN that improves the minds and NOR
ais of its prisoners, according to
Judge Johnson.
In his article, President johnson
says in part:
Read some of the examples of days
and nights of horror in the prison
camps of Georgia, as attested by the
Atlanta Constitution and other daily
newspapers. The Georgia prisoners
are leased out to contractors who
build the roads. These men are sub
jected to a slavery worse than that
of the black man could ever have
been. Men are lashed by the whip
ping-boss until they fall to the ground
and there they are left to die of their
injuries. A boy of sixteen was beaten
to death because he was too weak to
work. An old negro, sick and eX-
hausted, was tortured to death in the
fields because he failed to perform his
allotted labor.
1T is different in Colorado. This
state will have fine roads. Her con
victs are building them and they are
doing it under man who Is both a
practical business man and humani
tartan. l speak Of Warden John CleG-
horn. He selected ninety prisoners
from the nine hundred who volun-
teered and these are now camped
along the mountain trail where
the side. These men work with
out guards, and they only work
eight hours each day. In the evening
they enjoy themselves at various
kinds of games. The state gets no
direct revenue out of them, but it is
getting fine roads for nothing. There
is nothing of the Georgia camp scenes
and Warden Cleghorn is making men
while he is making fine roads. Soon
COLORADO will have good roads through
canons, valleys and over mountains.
