into the courts at once, and if it is
not declared invalid there it should
be repealed at the next session OF
the legislature. We feel confident,
however, that this measure will not
stand the test of the courts, and
that no other specific tax, levied
without regard to the value of the
property taxed, will square with
the provisions of the state Consti-
tuition regarding uniformity of tax
alton, even under the so-called
wide-open" amendment.
The Herald does not recall,
however, that Mr.. Adams opposed
this law when it was before the
house, nor that he even voted
against it. Perhaps he did, but if
he didn't it was because he, in COM
mon with the others who partici-
pated in its passage, believed that
it hit the terminal elevators only.
AS a matter of fact, it not only
hits the terminal elevators, but ev-
cry country elevator and every
farmer who raises grain.
And right there lies the great
est evil of specific taxes of this char
acter; they never hit the interests
they are aimed at. The bushel tax
on wheat was probably aimed by
the legislature at the terminal ele-
vators. AS a matter of fact the
terminal elevators are quite content
with it, but the country elevators
and the farmers are by no means
content with it, nor should they be.
The tax of quarter of cent a
bushel on every bushel of wheat
handled in every elevator of the
state during the year bears no rela-
tion whatever to the value of the
wheat. A bushe1 of No. l hard
wheat, worth, say $1.40, is taxed
lust the same as a bushel of no
grade" wheat, worth not much
more than half that amount. This
is not uniformity. If the tax is
high enough as to the No. hard,
it is too high as to the no grade, !"
and if it is fair for the. no grade"
it is too low for the No. 1 hard.
The bushel tax was aimed at
the terminal elevator, and it hits
the farmer.
The tonnage tax was aimed at
the steel trust and it would have
hit the 1aborer and the merchant
anu lu0 COIISuIl1SI.
Both are specific taxes, based
Oh production and not on value,
and both are therefore bad. They
are bad in principle, bad in practice
and bad in results.
The tonnage tax is defeated,
and the bushe1 tax should be taken
into court and defeated there. Not
only should these two instances of
specific, arbitrary taxation be ruled
out of this state, but so should the
principle upon which both are
founded.

Coed Roads Fe. The Farmer.

Every scrv of publication. daily,
weekly: monthly, political or religious
are having much to say concerning
good roads. Indeed, it seems to one
who is content to look at all these
questions with equanimity that great
proportion of cur people have in
measure become more or less "locoed'
over automobiles. DEPRESSING for
moment from our subject, We beg to
call attention to paragraph noticed
il an Ohio paper recently to the effect
that so many people we're using auto
mobiles, who ordinarily could not keep
a horse and buggy, led the writer to
believe this craze would be response
bic for many people living in moderate
poverty the remainder of their lives.
If they had not become afflicted with
this new craze they would continue to
save their income, finally reaching ap-
parent ease and enjoyment, which
would last them all their lives. In
other words, automobiles have been
purchased by people from their saw
ings Of years. 1t is only short time
when the automobile ceases to be use.
full and the savings invested therein
have been FILTERED away.
The road the farmer wants is a good
dirt road, composed primarily Of sand
aud clay. The farmer does not take
q keen interest in roads running
straight through the State, one road in
a county. and all the rest the same old
mud and ruts, with which VIC are I'll
familiar. The farmer wants his coun-
ry roads well built. well drained, and
he wants to have the road radiate from
the principal trading centre in his
county. The first improvement made
should start at the principal trading
centre end extend out fret one road
aud then another for few miles.
Thus all the farmers in the section
will be benefited. The benefit arising
from q single automobile traversing q
county is of but little weight. These
facts ere we'll understood by the far
ners who, when taxes are to be levied
or bonds issued for building foads,
will desire to know what kind ofroads
are to be built; roads farmers OF roads
for rioy.riders.-Farmers Union Sun,

 The present managers of the com pany are believed to be interested in Wall street, hence the proposition to list it's shares on the Stock Exchange.
