ABOUT TAXEs.

The Index from time TO time has
had good deal to say about taxes.
Our argument has not been against
taxes In themselves, but against the
system OF making the assessment,
Taxes need not be high II the values
OF ALL property is listed Very few
people kick Oh their assessment II
they know their neighbors all
through the state as we'll as at
home are assessed In the same pro-
portion.
High taxes do not retard COM
munity's prosperity IL they are ne
cessary, especially in new COM
munity. A city or township or coun
~ OF state grows and prospers In
proportion as public improvements
are made. The community that is
content with primitive conditions is
the one that lags behind. OF course
in order to secure bridges. good
roads. parks. improved school facili-
ties. waterworks, sewers and public
buildings, the tax rate must be in
creased, and the community that re-
fuses to be taxed In order to secure
these improvements and make it
better and more attractive place in
which to live is dead one.
There is no comparison between
the Emmett of today and the En-
NETT we remember before taxes
were voted for a new school build
ing and waterworks. There is no
comparison between the town today
and what 1t will be 10 years hence
II we provide for sewers and parks.
