These are the official records, Mr..
Voter which will you endorse by your
vote November Sth, the Republican record
of extravaganza, or the Democratic rec
ord of economy?
The above record demonstrates thor
oughly that the Democratic party is the
party of economy in Miss ri, and that
the Republican party is the party of ex-
travagance. Democratic rule in Missouri
reduced the tax rate from so cents to IT
cents on the 800 assessed vauation-last
year the tax rate in the adjoining states
of Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Illinois
was SO cents, 81 cents, 40 cents and 40
cents respectively. Not being able to
raise the tax rate in Missouri, the Repub-
lcans seek to raise the assessments in
order to obtain money to meet their ex-
travagances
Gov Hadley Is an advocate of assess
ing farm lands at full market value, and
urged the assessors to so assess 1t. When
the question of the equalization of the
farming lands of the State came before
the board of equalization at it's final
meeting Gov. Hadley was not satisfied
with the work Of the county assessors, as
to the real estate, and worked and voted
for an increased assessment, from about
thirty-three and one-third per cent, at
which farms are now assessed, to one
hundred per cent of their value. Gov.
Hadley made the mistake, although a
lawyer, of considering the board of equal
zation board of assessors. He didn't
stop to appreciate the fact that the board
could only eQualize, not assess. Fortu-
nately for the farmers Of Missouri, the
four Democrats of the board, Messrs.
Cowgirl, Gordon, Roach and Major, stood
by the farmers and prevented the raise In
their assessments of 900 per cent.
