HOW TO PREPARE II

The time is not yet here when oysters
have lost their attractiveness, and as long
as the sting of winter remains in the

The San Antonio Republic, ably ed
tied by Col. Nose Harris, republican
of the strictest sect, says: "Repub,
leans have happy faculty of telling
the truth; and when they find that
conditions demand criticism and cor.
rupt practices call for exposure and
remedy, they do not hesitate to do
their duty, regardless of where the
bolt may strike, whether the grafters
be of their own political faith or not.
Therein, it is hardly necessary to add,
republicans widely differ from the
democrats"
1t must be borne in mind, however,
that all this truth telling" and "criti-
cism' come before the nominations
are made. A nomination, in the eyes
of republicans, carries with it the sa-
cred rite of publication and almost
sanctlfication: and when voting time
comes, 1t is as the work of one man
wherein there is neither varableness
nor the shadow of turning.

Tax Small Holdings Less, Large Hold
ings More.


Even now the duty of the hour. as
/ conceive it, is to tighten the burdens
of the small home-owner. The meth
DDS / suggest are new in the South,
II know, but / do not hesitate to say
that believe we must tighten the
taxes on the poor man and the small
home-owner and land holder, and in
crease the taxes on others-principal'
ly by levying heavy graduated taxes
on inheritances of $4,000 or over, and
a Lloyd-George graduated tax on the
unearned increment in urban or rural
land values, completely -exempting
from the latter provision all, say who
own less than $1,000 worth of land.
We must tax small holdings less,
great holdings more the gains OF
thrift and industry less, the gains OF
chance or inheritance more.
Into our state laws here in the
South as in our national laws at Wash
ington we must write the determine
tion of the people that the birthright
of every man to the liberty and happi-
ness of homecoming shall be properly
safeguarded. and that the weak shall
not be forced to bear the burdens OF
the strong, or the many impoverished
that a few may be enriched.
A great democracy of thrifty, pros
porous. homecoming small farmers is
the hope of the South and should be
the goal OF all our striving. Vast areas
held for speculative purposes or
bought by corporations merely for
financial profit and cultivated by men
who are nothing more than factory
machines to their owners-all such
holdings are a menace to the progress
and prosperity of our section, as in
deed are all great plantations where
backward tenantry is exploited,
when by cutting them up. thrifty and
