AND THIS IS REFORM.

The Topeka State Journal prints
the following significant editoria
which is backed up by a detailed
statement of the actual increase in
state taxes in every county In the
state:
An increase of $930,572, nearly a
million dollars in state taxes. This
is the situation that confronts the
people Of Kansas this year. The
records of the state tax commission
reveal this startling fact. They also
show that in every county in the
state taxes for state purposes have
been increased to an almost alarm
ing degree.
The increase Is proportional in
every county in Kansas. Not one
escapes with much less than a 40
per cent increase.
These figures are taken from the
records in the office Of the state tax
commission. They are open to the
public and any one who has any
doubt may visit the state house and
see for himself.
A great deal has been said about
this being a business administration
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1909-09-23

in which reform is the watchword but
these figures indicate that reform is
going to cost the state a big round
sum.
The taxes are levied by the state
tax commission. The commission
however levies only what is needed
for the support of the state govern
ment. The commission must see that
the necessary funds are provided and
this year the members found that
the levy must be greatly increased to
meet the increased expenditures. Ac-
cordingly they increased the levy for
state purposes from nine-tenths Of a
mill to one mill and quarter and
the county commissioners Of the var
ious counties were notified that they
must see that their counties contribut-
ed the largely increased taxes for
the support Of the state.
The increase would have greatly
exceeded a million dollars had 1t not
been for the 100000 received from
the national government and turned
into the general fund.
The people Of Kansas have been
told that this administration meant
to conduct the states affair on a
business basis. Great economies were
to come from handling state affairs
like those Of big railroad or Of any
other corporation.
The theories and intentions OF the
present administration Of Governor
Stubs, and Of course the members OF
the senate and house elected concur
rently with him. are apparently vel
meant-but what Is the practical re-
suit thus far; absolutely startling.
The taxes for this year for state
purposes only have been increased an
average Of 90 per cent over last year.

bred thousand last year, or an In
crease of fifty per cent.
The figures are simply astounding
in detail. For instance, last year
the county of Shawnee paid $4,000
for state purposes; this year 1t must
raise $4,000.
Last year Wabaunsee county the
home of Speaker Dolley, paid $4,000
for state purposes; this year 1t must
pay $4,000.
Last year Douglas County, the
home Of the governor, paid $4,000;
this year 1t must pay $4,000.
Marion county last year $1,000;
this year $4,000.
wyandotte last year $4,000; this
year $4,000.
Dickinson, last year %a4,7OO; this
year $4,000.
Ellsworth was 100000 last year;
now $4,000.
Brown was $4,000; now $4,000
Lyon was $4,000; now $4,000
sedgwick was $4,000; now s1OS'-
900.
Reno was $4,000, now $4,000.
Greenwood was $4,000; now 'S7,'

And so It goes.

will greatly enhance the Republicans

be given a square deal"

While a part of the increase is due
to appropriations for state institu-
tions made necessary by the growing
population the 100000 received
from the government offsets this. The
remainder is chiefly due to vast in
creases in administration. 1t is
stated that the bank commissioners
office expense is increased $4,000;
the governors contingent fund which
is a bunch Of money to spend as he
pleases is increased $1,000. The at
torney generals expenditures are
greatly increased-and SO It goes,
The Republican party will have to
answer for the increased taxes next
year and If the people refuse to stand
for the square deal program OF ex-
travagance 1t will be Governor stubbs
and his select coterie Of assistants
who will have to shoulder the blame.

FIRED SHOTS At
MAN HE CHASED
THROUGH STREET
Woman Follows an Excited
Couple in Brooklyn, but
No Arrests Are Made.

Ability to sprint was all that saved a
man, hatless and coatless from being
shot as he dashed through Pearl street,
Brooklyn, at o'clock this morning
followed by q second man. who was
emptying his revolver at him Behind
the second man was young woman,
her long black hair hanging. and with
out wraps.
Don't shoot him. Please don't kill
him" yelled the woman. who was SUI
ficently fleet OF foo, to keep pace with
the man with the revolver.
The two men and woman ran to
Adams street, and then turned east,
They dashed past the rear OF the gene
raj post-off,ce. and made for Tillery
street, where they disappeared.
There were six shots fired In all.
which were heard by Lieut. Newbold In
the Adams street police station. De-
tectives were sent sourrying In every
direction. but all trace OF the trio was
lost.
The man who was being shot at was
described as about Ave feet ten inches

ing was thirty-eight or forty and Of

could scarcely stand.
How was he hurt?" the woman was
asked by passing citizen.
