TrickSterS MiSrepreSent
NeuU Tax Valuations

The meanest piece of political
trickery yet reported is the attempt
being made secretly TO deceive
farmers and home owners about the
valuation fixed on real estate this
year by land appraisers.
It should be remembered that the
appraisement made this year is for
a period of four years instead of 10
as heretofore. If the law for quadren
NAL appraisements hereafter had not
been passed, the appraisement would
hae been made this year just the
same, under the old law, for a period
of 10 wears. Therefore the change
went into effect at the regular time
for appraising real estate.
At the same time, all the taxing
authorities in the state without re-
gard to politics agreed upon the plan
to comply strictly with the constitu-
tional rule requiring that property
should be appraised for taxation at
its true value in money. True value
is understood to be full value. The
purpose in appraising at full value is
well understood to be the only plan
for correcting the many abuses Of
the present taxation system that has
gradually shifted most of the burdens
of taxation upon owners of real es-
tate by lowering the values and rails
ing the rates.
The new law requires that lists
showing the values placed upon real
estate this year shall be furnished to
each property owner so that he may
see whether his neighbor's property
is valued justly, thereby insuHng an
equitable appraisement to all owners
of real estate. These lists are just
being furnished and, of course, they
show that the values fixed this year
are higher than the old values.
The tTicksters who are trying to
deceive farmers and home owners on
the new values are going about Sc
cretly and saying to them that they
will be compelled to pay more taxes
hereafter on account Of the increased
values. They purposely refrain from
saying that property owners are in
sured against such extortion by a
limit put upon the tax rate 1t is
the purpose of the tricksters to de-
ceive by telling only half the truth,
which Is the meanest and most
despisable kind of falsehOod.
OF course tax values on land have
been raised. Every owner of real es-
tate with a grain of common sense
not only knows it, but is GLAD OF
1T. It means that he will pay less
taxes when the whole plan is COM

Protests Against Foraker Come Back

from contrasting the various utter
anoes, promises and interpretations
authorized by this omnibus commit
tee and asking himself the question
whether performance can ever strad-
die quite so widely as promise.
'Tn Foraker's case, however, no
mere factional question is raised. One
can harmonize honest differences to
a certain extent, but Foraker is wide
ly advertised by the Hearst disclos-
ures (never adequately refuted or de-
nied) of having been in league with
the Standard Oil company through a
large part OF his senatorial career, of
receiving large checks from them and
acting as their representative. In
other words, his career typifies insin-
cerity and false pretense, the more
contemplate because of brilliant tai
ents. It means one thing to the peo-
pie and another thing to the privi-
legged capitalist. 1t stands for every
thing that has provoked insurgency
and put the spur to progress.
with Foraker on the stump, the
best that can be said OF the Repub-
lican ticket is that 1t is infinitely bet
ter than at least one of its advocates.
and worthy of a committee which will
assume to have little judgment Of
its own, not weakly aqulesce in every
thing that II mistakes for public SEN
timent. Harding will indeed be lucky
il the injection Of Foraker into his
campaign does not prove the last
straw to the loyalty of many a waver-
ing Republican and a barrier to many

!. JACK SPRAT TODAY

Since the passage Of the Payne.
Aldrich tariff bill, Old Mother Goose
has changed one of her rhymes.
Jack Sprat could eat no fat,
His wife could eat no lean,
So, in the happy days of yore,
They licked the platter clean"
2.
But now for neither fat nor lean,
Can poor Jack find the means,
They neither eat bit of meat,
But live on rice and beans"
The laboring man who has been up
against the high cost of living knows
this revised version is absolutely true.
The laboring man is well aware Of
how the Republican party has revised
the tariff downward" by putting a
high tariff on the necessities Cf life,
such as shoes, blankets, dannels
clothing, hosiery, hats, caps, stock
ings and the like; but to compensate
the laboring people for this they have
put on the free list articles that
come into the homes of all Ameri-
cans such as dried acorns, fossils,
dragons blood, dried blood, fish
skins, catgut, whipgut and wormgut.
These articles above mentioned,
which were placed upon the free list,
were the only benefits the Republi-
can party gave to the laboring people
of this country.
If the laboring people wish this
same kind of a program to be kept
up let them keep on voting the Re-
publican ticket, for that will mean
an endorsement Of Cannonisln, Aid
richism and Taftism, as embodied in
the tariff bill, which President Taft
says is the best ever" and which
Warren G. Harding, Republican can
didate for governor of Ohio said in
a speech at Cleveland, April 20, 1910,
is the best that any congress Las yet
produced.

me AKRON seaeon.JournaI, a Re-
publican paper, In a recent Issue pub
lished the following editorial protest
ing against Senator Foraker being as
signed TO make campaign speeches:
The unbelievable has happened,
and a Republican state committee,
presumably in It's right mind, has as
signed Joseph Benson Foraker to
make few speeches in the course Of
the present gubernatorial campaign.
Apparently mistaking the sentiment
Of few ex-postmasters for a public
clamor, the former senator has been
told TO 20 ahead and speak his mind
in certain restricted districts, provid-
ed iniunctions do not interfere, and
the committee will stand for what
ever he chooses to say
"The committee is apparently going
on the principle of the Tennessee ap-
plicant for a teaching Job, who was
equally willing to teach that the earth
is round or nat, leaving It to local
sentiment 10 determine which theory
he would avow. Where "old guard"
sentiments prevail, the people are to
be given Foraker and his interpreta-
tion of the platform. Where people
are opposed to the domination Of sDe-
cial intereSs, Garfield is to speak.
All things TO all men.
The trouble with this arrangement
is the fact that Ohio has never been
divided into air tight compartments.

How Harmon Stopped
the Fertilizer Frauds

r, W. Dunlap, state dairy and food
commissioner, one Of the candidates
for a third term on the Republican
state ticket, permitted his tongue to
run away with his reason in several
Of his campaign speeches
At Berlin Heights and elsewhere he
charged that Governor Harmon had
dragged the state board of agricul-
ture into politics and that the board
was made up of a lot Of politicians.
II is remarkable that a state otIi-
! cial, even though a candidate for q
third term, should make a statement
uent so completely the reverse Of the
truth.
Instead Of dragging the state board
of agriculture into politics, one of the
first official acts by Governor Harmon
was to take the state board Of agri-
culture OUT OF POLITICS.
The state board of agriculture con-
sists of ten members. Prior to Gov
ernor Harmon's administration the
board consisted of six Reublicans and
four Democrats. With a partisan ma
iority this board was made a part Of
the state g.op. machine, UNTIL 1T
WAS TAKEN OUT OF POLITICS by
Governor Harmon. This was done by
appointing two Democrats and one
Republican, when the terms of two
Republicans expired, and A. P. San
dies (Democrat), resigned as a mem
ber of the board to become its secre-
tary. The other seven members Of
the board were not changed, and the
board as reorganized consisted Of five
Republicans and five Democrats, an
equal number of each, making the
board nonpartisan for the first time
in the history Of Ohio.
OF the original ten members on the
beard six are still members. If they
are politicians now they must have
been politicians before Governor
Harmon has appointed but four new
members of this boarl. Two Of its for
mer members he reappointed when
their terms expired, and the board
still stands five Republicans and five
Democrats. Which Nefectually dis
proves Mr.. Dunlap's charge that tne
governor dragged the board into poll
tics and that it is now composed OF
a lot of politicians.
Jacob A. Beidler of Lake county,
formerly a Republican member of
congress from the Twentieth district
Of Ohio, now a member of the state
board of agriculture was so in
censed by Dunlaps untruthful state
ments that he made a spirited reply,
in which he said
81 am surprised that he Dunlap
should make such a statement and
try to mislead the farmers. The truth
is that the state board of agriculture
WORKS FOR THE FARMERS, IN
STEAD OF WORKING THEM, and
without salary and compensation,
which in the case of some other state
officials is very different, Mr.. Dunlap
in particular
"There is not a member of the
board that is not a farmer in active
pursuit Of his calling. 1t is true that
the state legislature has been making
increased appropriations for the In
creased work and undertakings Of the
board, such as nursery and orchard |
live stock inspection, hog
cholera prevention by incubation,

SAYING NOTHING BUT SAVING WOOD.
Municipal and County Officers Who
Wink at Violations Of Law May
EaYe an Awakening.

jackson, Miss. Aug. 3.One Of
these hot mornings, some of those
municipal and county officers who
are winking the other eye at viola
tions Of the Statewide prohibition
law, may wake up and discover
their official heads in the govern
For's waste basket. The governor
knows Of these violations and who
is responsible for them, but is not
saying anything.
The governor has the habit of
thinking such matters over. and
when he has figured it all out in
his mind somebody will have to
answer with song and dance. The
governor has been thinking recent
" about matters at Vicksburg,
Natchez and other places where
they have what is practically the
open saloon. He has not been
peeking Z but has been making a
quiet Investigation through reliable
channels. and there'll be shaking
of the official dice in a short time,
or all the political prophets and
official pessimists miss their guess.
1t has come to the governor from
several sources recently that the
prohibition law was being openly
violated at Vicksburg, Natchez
and one or two other Of the larger
cities in the State. and when it
comes to a question Of this kind
there is no middle course for the
governor, who is a stickler for the
law, whether it is prohibition OF
some other statute. He has been
waiting to see. it is believed,
whether the authorities will enforce
| the law, and If they fail III their
duty too long there is liable to be
Ian upheaval in the capitol. and the
loficial sword will get busy with
some official heads.
The governor has the right tc
remove county and municipal Off
GERS for failure to enforce the law,
and If some Of those fellows who
are Winking the other eye dom
watch out they will get caught in
their own meshes. The governor
would rather tile law be enforced

pot like to interfere 10 county 81
