TAX coNFEREEs CAUTIOUS
Opinion seemed TO be That Present System
Should be Tested Out

Michigan first tax conference came
TO an end in Detroit last week. From
start 10 finish. except for one or two
instances, there wasn't a ripple TO dis
turb the harmony OF this first state
conference. The resolutions adopted
by the conference were decidedly mild.
They showed the cautious disposition
OF the delegates and indicated clearly
that the men interested in the state :
tfxation do not wish to move hastily.
one Of the prominent features of the
conference was the insistence with
which the delegates discussed the
present methods of assessment OF both
public service corporations and general
property.
The two most important resolutions
are concerned with these matters. One
follows the recommendation Of George
b. Horton of Fruit Ridge, chairman
Of the state tax commission. that con-
sideration be given the proposition OF
Hltlt ruDtINlrlNu VI AONoA AcAe''N' -
order to secure more uniformity, and
the otner that the delegates give SER
ious attention TO the matter of state
tax commission expenses and methods.
!. The latter recommendation is due to
|ethe tact that the state tax commission
. is now engaged in raising the counties
of the state 10 cash value basis. This
increases the assessment and thus re-
duces the taxes paid by the railroads
and other public service corporations
in proportion.
The tax commission is now spending
SIS, 600 per year and has so far brought
seven counties up to cash valuation.
II. is said lay delegates that the taxes Of
the railroads and other public service
corporations would be reduced from
one quarter to one third by placing the
Sntire state on cash basis. To fore
stall this reduction Of taxes the con,

The Diamond Drill in its most recent
Issue publishes under the heading of
Public Opinion, an article CRITICS
ing the last County Fair. Although
the article. supposedly, comes from one
OF the Drills readers. anyone remem-
boring the criticism which appeared In
the same publication year ago edi-
torially, can recognize the writer. As
this gentleman's distaste for the West
side has always been marked, and his
bias regarding West side affairs and
doings is we'll known among as. the
article must be taken for what il is
worth.
That the exhibits and organization
o. the Fair OF 1919 was far from what
should be expected Of Iron River, has
been conceded even without the obser
yation OF our friend at Crystal
Falls, and il will be mp 60 those in
authority, 10 make far better show
ing than this year, or even last year
before the annual Fair can be recog
nized success Probably IL the writer
would FORGET for time that we have
an East side and west side Of the
County, and devote few of his spare
moments to boosting" it might help
some.
Had he given bit more than a hur-
ried look at the exhibits, and not gone
of to the ballgame, he would probably
have stumbled upon what was without
DOUBT the most important and valuable
part o. the FaIr--I refer to the instruc-
tive and interesting talks, given by
Slessrs Volta, Geismar and Hoopin-
garner -of which be not even makes
mention These alone made il worth
every farmer s time to be there.
II seems ridiculous that the writer
should again dish mp the fact that the
aeroplane exhibition had to he called
Oh on the Fourth, and thereby quote
the conversation of two Iron River
men. Crystal Falls came over in force
to help celebrate the Fourth, and Iron
River appreciates the fact however,
surely there Was no one who came over
with the idea OF seeing an aeropalne
exhibition.
AZ soon as the committee knew that.
owing to an accident. Beachy would be
unable to fiy, il saved neither time nor
expense in the effort of procuring an
other aeronaut and when this was
found to be impossible, it made every
effort to announce this fact all over the
country The representative Of Pub
lie Opinion knows these facts, but
still he insists upon quoting idle gos
sip.
That he should take up the words of
some fool talker OF small fortune
having been made by few insiders in
connection with the Fourth is as
puerile as the statement itself is ridi
culous.
Iron River, unfortunately, has some
knockers, but the spirit of the majority
j. Of the right kind even TO the extent
OF being sufficiently honest to admit
that the Fair was not what it should
have been.
The writer views regarding the a
daptability OF the fair grounds are open
to discussion. Apparently in his opin
ion tle main object Of the County Fair
lies not Ia it's educational value. but
in the pulling of Of horse race
