Paris Authorities Asked Permission to

Paris, Dec. TT . question, sis

humans?" is causing wide discussion.
No ono doubts that many poor per-
sons in Paris eat the flesh OF dogs.
Occasionally a patron at some cheap
restaurant has suspicion that he is
eating horse flesh or dog meat disguis-
ed by sauce Of peculiar piquancy. Old
Parisians remember the siege by the
Germans, when, with hunger as the
sauce, dog meet was devoured greedily.
Several persons have now asked the
authorities for permits to open slaugh-
ter houses for dogs in Paris. The
flesh is to be sold as food for human
consumption. The applicants declare
that the dogs they deal in will be
healthy and fattened for the market.
Their proposition has raised loud pro-
tests,

ASSESSMENT AND TAN PROBLEM.


Barton county is the only one so
far SO come forward and plead IN
Generalization In real estate assess
ment under this hue and cry from a
Republican governor 30 get busy
and raise more money. The deputy
county clerk and postmaster at La
mar, representing the county court,
appeared before she state board of
equalization and requested that body
s. raise the valuation on farm lands
Barton county 100 per cent and
also asked IA 100 per cent raise In she
valuation OF live stock
So lar as we can learn the assessed
valuation OF farm lands In Bates
county compares very favorably
with shas In other counties through
out the state and FOR the purpose ol
state taxes, that is all shat could be
asked of us. Our local condition Is
somewhat aggravated by the fact
that the present assessed valuation
doesn't raise sufficient funds 10 meet
the county's needs, but we do not
care 80 pay more than our just pro.
portionment OF state taxes. State
Auditor Gordon Is un.quessionably
right when he calls attention to the
large amount OF money reported by
the banks and trust companies and
she small amount shat finds its way
on she assessors books. But how
are We TO get at Il? Amsn may have
10000 on deposit the first day OF
June and owe a note for $40, 900 due
on June 18th. Now, certainly 1t
would be double assessment TO col
ect taxes on both the money and
the note. The man with the money
pays It on the note within fifteen
days OF the assessment and takes up
his note and destroys Is. Now II this
was borrowed money, invested In
real estate, he is already paying on
that investment.
We therefore do not agree With
Auditor Gordon In his full deduc.
lions that because all she money re-
ported In the banks is not on the as.
sessment books, that It means O
criminal lodging OF taxes.
The county board OF equalization
ass year started plan, which We
expected to accomplish good results,
by adding a per cent In blanket
raise TO all the township assessments.
It was expected that the township
assessors would assess at this In
crease In 1908 and thus the as
sessed valuation would be gradually
increased on an equitable basis, but
most OF the assessors went back to
the old rates. All recognize the need
OF Bates county for more revenue,
and that the assessed valuation Ia
not commensurate wish the prices
and is bringing, but just the proper
steps to take to reach the desired
end is the problem that must be ses.
tied by the township assessors, or
aser by the board OF equalization.

FREAK LEGISLATION.

House Bill No. 54S and Senate Bill
No. All now before the Missouri leg.
isature are designed to regulate ad.
vertising Ossenssbly they are meant
so prevent frauds from being perpe-
trated through advertising agency;
In reality both are OF the foolish med.
ing sort that are usually champion
ed by camp followers OF reform
movements, who must be radical In
order TO be recognized as regulars.
The enactment OF these laws would
prevent any merchant in the state
from advertising his wares In super
lative terms, such as "all wool"
finest cheviots," etc under heavy
penalty, both for the merchant and
the newspaper. Damaged goods"
"Flre Sales" Bankrupt stocks" are
on the black list. Itprovides against
,tbe advertisement Of all proprietary
modicines. If these bills become laws
every publisher and every advertiser
would have to employ a lawyer to
pass upon all advertising matter
and then lawyers and courts differ In
sheir construction Of these complex
laws. Il is pretty generally believed
that most OF such bills are introduc.
ed Tor the purpose Of holding up
shs interests effected, but always
there is danger Of freak legislation
being enacted to the annoyance and
trouble OF interests effected, and toe
often a dead letter on the statute
books, and a lowering Of that respect
for law which should be held by al
good citizens.
