A VIEW OF TAXATION.

Pembina Pioneer Express: There is
a meeting this week at Bismarck Of a
number of "tax-sharps, including Our
own county auditor, Nv. W. Felson,
who by study and experience knows
about as much as any of them in the
actual workings of the present system,
or rather the lack of system.
These gentlemen will undoubtedly
propose many actual Improvements in
the ways and means of assessing, and
the Lord knows there is plenty of op-
portunity.
Among our present. methods We Sc
lect assessors from the different civic
corporate communities and the law di.
reefs them to assess all property at its
actual valuation and return the results
to the county auditor.
As matter of practice, no assessor
in the state ever pretends to do this
In a general way by common consent
property is divided into classes, about
thirty in all, besides some miscellane-
Gus. In most localities many of these
"classes" are practically ignored b,
both the assessed and the assessor. Such

items as money and credits, watches
and diamonds, stocks and bonds, ETC.,
make almost no showing in the totals.
In the other classes supposed per-
centage rate is established as a fair
valuation, each class, however, having
its own per cent rate, and varying
largely according to the general ideas
CT the assessors.
The law which says to value at real
value. is impossible of exact execution
because the value OF anything depends
very largely on many different factors.
Even silver or gold dollar is Of a
constantly varying value when meas
ured by its purchasing power.
Hence when the assessment is based
on a per cent of the actual value, the
first question which arises is what is
the actual value-and the per cent must
vary according to the answer.
Thus at the very best the assessors
rate is only guess as to values,
whether he reckons on the full or the
per cent value.
The assessment by communities by
the local assessor, who is elected by
his neighbors, is fruitful of errors OF
judgment by the assessor. First, he
does not want to have his averages
show up any larger than those OF the
neighboring townships. If he does, he
is not likely to be reelected, because,
while it would make no material diff
erence in the township or the school
tax, it would make the township pay
larger proportion OF the county and
state taxes.
These are but few examples OF many
wrongs that appear in Our methods OF
assessment.
Some of these may be corrected. The
tax convention may be able to show
us how to diAerentiate fairly the per-
centage between, say, farm lands,
store goods and banks.
Since the world began, taxation has
been a problem. We fear as long as
the world lasts, or rather as long as
the present sort Of people live in the
world, taxation will be problem
First. because of the innate difficulties
OF equalizing the assessment of the diff
ferent classes OF property. but more
than all to find some means of assess
ing the intangible and invisible stuff
that always escapes taxation. When
everybody becomes exactly honest, in
other words, in the millennium, then
will it be possible to make everybody
pay their fair share OF the burden OF
government.

WHY IMMIGRANTS DO NOT &C.
cEPT WORK IN THE COUNTRY.

In the World Today for February
there is an interesting account OF an
attempt to get immigrants to work on
farms. The writer, Nan Mashek,
says:
If we had employment agencies Upon
which the immigrant could depend, it
would do much to start him trustfully
toward the country, but it would not
solve the whole problem. There are
many objections to farm life in itself,
which it would still be difficult for the
immigrant to overlook. Chief among
these is the absolute change in the
mode of life. Granting that the great
mass of our immigration comes from
the rural districts of Europe and
should therefore adapt itself readily to
the open country, there are still a
great many differences between for
eign and American farm life. Euro
pean farmers live in villages, each vii
lage having its school, its church and
its we'll established social life, so that
the isolated American farm is mex
pressibly lonely to the foreign farm
hand. Then, too, our food is different
and unsatisfying for that reason. The
wages are unquestionably better and
the life more healthful, but after all
many people care more for each other
than they do for themselves, and these
would rather get along socially on S.
week than prosper lonesomely on
$40. !
With regard to the sending of whole
families into the country there are
almost unsurmountable difficulties.
Where the families are large it is diff
cult to find farmers who are willing or
able to house them, or if occasionally
a position is open. there remains the
question of "Nhat to do with the
things" 1t is large undertaking to
move a family intact, and doubt if
any effort, unless undertaken immedi-
ately on arrival from Europe. would
bring any great measure Of success.
Where there are no children, or only
one or two, the wife of the casual la
borer usually helps to earn the living.
She enters industry as regular wage
Garner and is able often to bring home
as much or more than her husband.
'As result she gains position OF
definite economic value in the house
hold which she was never able to COM
mand as mother and housekeeper
She may always have helped to pay
the rent by saving money and by TAX
ing care OF the children. but these
duties do not bring her recognition as
wage-earner Her 'pejda" (weekly
wage) does bring her this recognition
1t gives her new opinion of the worth
Of her work and new standard to
live up to- Naturally she is unwilling
to give it up for the lower wage and
the lower standard which she would
find on the farm.
