ASSESSMENTS AT

HOLDER OF COUNTY WARRANTS WILL ASK ORDER OF FEEDER
 AL COURT FOR CHANGE.
Will Increase the Assessments and Taxes Almost Twc-thIrd, If Grant
 ed, According to information.

Banker Kelly, of Fort Smith, holder of the county warrants in about the sum of $7S,000, for which the court house money was raised, has been in the city for the past few days mak. ing the preliminary arrangements for going into federal court at Little Rock, and asking for an order that the tax assessor and tax collector oi Garland county be required to assess and collect on property in this county at full valuation this year.
 This information came through Deputy Assessor and Deputy Collec- tor Frank McCann, with whom Mir Kelly talked while here with a view of getting the information to present in his petition for such an order.
 MT. McCann stated last night that If such an order were issued it would make the taxes generally in the coun. ty about two thirds more than they now total. There is collected now according to Mir McCann, about $25S,- GOO in taxes, and under an order like MT. Kelly asks, there would be col lected about $750,00O Many people who are now just about able to meet their taxes. under present conditions probably would not be able to pay al all under full valuation proposition
 The general county fund receives about $50,000, and would be increased to about $150,000
 When the county court house was built Mir Reilly came into possession of large sum of the county warrants through the issuance of which the county raised the money for this i'm provement. Some of the warrants have been used, but for the most part Mir. Kelly has been unable to collect
 Not long since he filed a suit and received a judgment by default in Little Rock against this county the suit not being defended.
 MT. Kelly, it is stated, intends to present to the federal court that the sum claimed is due him, that proper ty here is being assessed at only about one-third value, as is customary throughout the state, and that if the assessments and collections were made on full valuation, as required OJ idMg AnClC WOAlu 'DO oAtDNlCui money in the county treasury to re- deem his warrants, which is the re, lief he will seek.
 The situation will appear critical tC many MT. McCann as deputy asses sor starts out on his work as asses sor next Monday. It is anticipated that something will be heard from the federal court order within that time but unless he is served with an or der, will make the assessments in the usual manper. This year only the personal assessments are made, but if the federal court were to issue such an order as Mir. Kelly anticipates, il could be addressed to the board of equalization, and that body be forced to bring the realty assessments up to the full valuation, it is claimed.

PROTECTION; HOW 1T WORKS
Rhode Island, a Tarlff-Made state, as
Described BY Miss Ida NJ.
Tarbell.

"The doctrine of protection is worth
looking at as 1t works." declared Gov.
ernor Wilson at Easton, Pa the other
day. He added. in characteristic
phrase:
Il haven't any reverence for any
economic doctrine whatever-except
az II works"
How does the Aldrich doctrine of
protection" work?
Ida M. Tarbell Is admittedly one of
the foremost tariff experts who have
taken sides with the people In the
tariff controversy. She is a sober,
thoughtful student and writer, whose
conclusions, though often annoying to
some highly-placed gentlemen, have
almost invariably been found correct.
here is what Miss Tarbell says of
that "tariff-made state" Rhode Island:
This, then, is high projections
most perfect work-a state of half
million people, turning out an annual
product worth S187,0O0,OOO; the lab
oters in the chief industry underpaid,
unstable, and bent with disease; the
average employers rich, self-satisfied
and as Indifferent to social obligation
as so many robber barons. 1t is an
industrial oligarchy made by a ma
tons benfcence, under the mistaken
notion that it was working out a labor's
paradise. 1t is feudalism, and
not even benevolent feudalism"
No one can question the justice Of
Governor Wilson's statement, that
economic doctrines are to be judged
by their works.
BY their fruits we shall know them,
The fruits of the Aldrich tariff are
bloated fortunes, corrupted politics,
enhanced cost of living.

The EVIL Of the Saloon.

An American social reform journal
has this to say of the evil of the Ii.
censed liquor traffic:
1T is not chiefly that the saloon is
a political evil, not chiefly that drunk.
enness is abhorrent, not chiefly that
1t interferes with work and business,
not altogether, that 1t makes so much
misery for so many, but that at last
we are seeing that the saloon and in.
temperance are the enemies Of souls
that have infinite worth and the de-
stroyers Of bodies that have cost such
care We are at last seeing how ut
terly illogical, even imbecile, it is to
spend thousands of dollars on schools
and churches to produce fine souls and
thousands of dollars of sanitary cit
les and streets and housea and safe
guards to grow healthy young man
and even to spend thousands more to
restore criminals to manhood, and
then to allow on any corner an insti,
tuition which destroys both body and
soul"

II the Progressive Republicans OF
Wisconsin are to maintain the integ-
rity and efficiency of their movement.
they will not only continue to follow
Senator La Toilette in utter disregard
of any false god, but they will vote,
as the senator has frequently voted,
for principle irrespective of artificial
party lines.
The hope of the Progressive Repub.
lican cause lies in the stanch, uncom-
promising leadership of men like Sem
ator La Toilette, of men who for the
mere sake of gaining Office will neither
change principles as they would a
suit Of clothes, nor will profess one
thing when they really believe an
other.
In the coming campaign the fight is
one of principle. Principles are
unreal. The fight is not between this
party and that party; it is between
Tories and Progressives regardless of
party. Among the presidential candi-
dates there is only one man who has
shown by deed as well as by word that
he is a thorough-going Progressive,
with ability to do things. That man
is Woodrow Wilson. He deserves the

then under the cracking noise Of his
