DECLARE AGAINST
TAX AMENDMENT
(Continned from Pace IL

Some important principles on the
problem of government aid to home
steaders is contained in the report
made by the Ways and Means Com
mttee of the Senate on House Bill
No. 20, bearing the title of An Act
to regulate the rate of interest due
or to become due by persons acquir-
ing or who have acquired homesteads-
The report submitted by Senate Fair
child is as follows:
your committee has carefully
looked into the matter of the interest
now charged upon deferred payments,
and finds that the existing rate of 8
per cent is very excessive when the
great amount of risk taken by the
homesteader is taken into considera-
ton The h4mesteader not only has
to prepare himself to meet his pay
ments, but has also to strive with al
most everything against him at the
start to provide means to exist for
himself and family. At this time,
when the Territory is seeking suitable
persons to settle on lands available
for demonstrating, the committee feels
and is of the opinion that every rea-
sonable encouragement should be
given to the bona fide settler and
homesteader. The bill seeks to give
this encouragement.
VERY often Legislators are led to
believe that the government should be
legislated into financial institution
for money making. That, in the minds
of many, is erroneous, The govern
ment is not, and should not be, q
money making institution, as financial
corporations are. On the other hand,
the government should not be made
nor at least expected to furnish ev-
erything for the homesteader without
some fair remuneration for, the OUT
lay
"The bill proposes to fix the rate Of
interest to become due by persons ac-
curing or who have acquired home,
steads at per cent. A very liberal
encouragement indeed"
This report was adopted, passing
the bill on second reading Senator
Judd wanted to know whether the.
word "homesteads" had been consid-
cred by the ways and means commit
tee to include all sorts of homesteads
cash, freehold and otherwise. SEN

tract is to be signed by the Governor.

Further provisions are that no debt

earnings are to be applied first to OPP

y irG to hctterme MT and such eXtraor-

which the Governor must agree, and
fourth to the payment of the interest
on the bonds. In no event is the La
bility OF the Territory to exceed $780,
GOO. nor is the guaranty to run longer
than thirty years.
The Governor is given large discre-
tionary powers under this resolution
He is to appoint two members OF the
boards directorate and to examine the
finances and the operation of the road

The Board of Health sent a com

Other samples from other poi factories
were pronounced in poor sanitary con-

made before their factories were closed

TO RECTIFY PROPERTY VALUA.
TIONS.

Most every business man admits the
good sense represented in the conten-
ton of Ex-Governor Carter that Ha-
wall is making mistake in trans
ferring to the municipalities taxa
ton system that perpetuates the iron
clad one per cent tax rate and allows
the sliding scale OF valuations, which
means, of course, generalization.
The present difficulty in dealing
with the subject is that not few who
agree with Mr. Carter and those who
think with him, hesitate to come into
the open in opposition to measure
that has gone to the Legislature with
the endorsement of the combined bus
mess organizations of the city as rep
resented by special legislative com
mittee.
Knowing full well how some bust
ness men feel that in taking an OPP
posing, though honest position they
are "quarreling with their bread and
butter and fear they will lose bust
ness patronage, we would not deal too
harshly with them.
But something should be done at
the present session of the Legislature
to bring to an early end the unright-
eous and utterly unbusinesslike sys-
tenn of valuation of real and personal
property now in vogue in this Terri
tory
The lletin cannot understand
why the business organizations are
not the first to suggest the correction
at time when change is to be
made and corrections are appropr-
ate.
If this cannot be done--though we
are inclined to believe the Legislature
will see the Importance of supporting
the original administration bill-some
provision should be made at this time
for a thorough investigation of prop
erty valuations either by special COM
missions in each County or by the

ALLOW TERRITORY

A plan for the encouragement of new
railroads in the Territory was broach-
ed in the House of Representatives
this morning by the introduction of a
measure which, if it goes into effect.
makes the Territory, under certain
conditions, sponsor for the bonds of
the road. In brief, the Territory is to
guarantee the interest on the bonds,
and its own credit is to be used in
aiding the railroad
The measure was introduced as Il
concurrent resolution by Representa-
tive Makekau, who is probably acting
for other interests. The resolution is
declared to be in aid of the develop
ment of small farming communities
through helping to furnish railroad
transportation.
Under its terms, the Territory is
empowered to enter into contract
with any railroad company whereby
the Territory shall guarantee interest
not exceeding 4 per cent upon first
lien bonds, secured by mortgage or
