THE TAX COMMISSION.

The Tax Commission. authorize
by the recent General Assembly
met in Baton Rouge Monday al
noon, and at once took up the
important matters assigned to il
for consideration BY the Begisla
ture. II is, by long odds one OF
the most important commission
ever convened in Louisiana, com
posed Of many Of the leading men
Of the State, and its deliberations
will be watched with intense in
terest by the thoughtful people oil
the entire State. This commission
has the opportunity Of solving a
pressing and heretofore perpleN-
ing fiscal problem, and it is be-
,lieved the members will measure
up fully to the high mark set for
them by the people of the State
IF the Tax Commission will wipe
out our present antiquated taxa
ton and assessment systems,
which are chiefly noteworthy for
the unevenness with which the
burdens of taxation are distribut
ed. and substitute therefor a sys-
tenn refec ting the best modern
thought on that particular sub
ject, it will put Lou siana abreast
of the most progressive common
wealths Of the Union.
It is well known that assess
ments in Louisiana are not justly
made. It often happens that adj
joining properties, equal in every
respect, are assessed at different
valuations. This ought not to BE-
possible. and will mot be possible
when some modern uniform,
"hard and fast" rule is establish
ed whereby all real estate will be
made to bear its legitimate share
of the burdens Of taxation. The
small property owner usually pays
his full share Of taxes. while the
rich man and the corporation as
frequently escape by some hook
or crook.
The Tax Commission was called
into existence to remedy these de-
fects in our laws and to further
devise an ideal system of taxation,
which will be absolutely fair and
just to every taxpayer. "big' or

TRAMP TO MILLIONAIRE.

It is said that the Millionaire
Club in Washington Is quite proud
Of its new member. He has been
duly installed and represents the
silver State Of Nevada. His name
is Senator George Wingfield. He
succeeds his former partner, Sen
ator Nixon. While named some
weeks ago, he has only recently
reached Washington, where he is
busy learning the ropes 1t is
necessary for members Of the
Senate to conduct themselves in
way BETTING their millions.
OF all the members none has a
life so wrapped in romance as
the latest addition to the United
States Senate. It is mixture Of
the yellow back and Laura Jean
Libby. His biography up to date
reads like sensational novel, and
if his days in Washington will in
the future bristle with incidents
as they have in the past. Senator
Wingfield will be picturesque

nowledged as fact that nine
years ago he drifted into Tone

He had struggled with life in the

rope. By sheer luck he managed
to pick up *l2. lie had the pluck
and energy and, perhaps best of
all. the luck. He met Senator
Nixon and certain intimacy
grew up between the two. The
Senator liked the new conner and
became his staunch backe and
friend. This was half the battle
won. Advancing him sufficient
nl)ney to tide him along. Wing
field struck the mining district at
the right time and acquired some
valuable claims. He is now said
to be worth $4,000. 900. No fairy
prince Of fiction ever made a for
tune so rapidly I'm nine years
to make $4,000. 900 certainly en-
titles him to a seat in the Senate.
He is only As years of age, and

uNcI.E aAM URGES A STERN
WAR ON SPARROWS.

English sparrows are abundant
in every town and city in thu
y. s. and in many suburb
an districts. They are noisy, I'll
thy. and destructive. They drive
native birds from villages ant
homesteads. Though they are oc
casionally valuable as destroyers
of noxious insects. all things con
sidered. they do far more harm
than good.
Uncle Sam, through his Depart
ment Of Agriculture. has planned
ways and means for the EXTERN.
iuation of this pest. His recon-
mendations of practicable methoos
of dealing with the sparrow in
clude the destruction Of nests.
trapping and poisoning. urging
trapping as unquestionably the
best English sparrows are good
to eat. he says, and their use as
food is recommended. because OF
their nutritive value. as a means
of reducing their numbers They
have been eaten in the Old World
for centuries. In many Of the
first class hotels and cafes of this
country the sparrow is served to
patrons as a freed bird. - Uncle
Sam SAYS the difference in taste
Is not discernible.
The English sparrow was intro
duced into America 4 little more
than 60 years ago, and is now dis
tributed in vast numbers over all
the United States and Canada.
This rapid dissemination is a re-
suit of the birds hardness, ex-
traordinary fecundity. diversity
of food, aggressive disposition and
almost complete immunity from
natural enemies.
On the farm and in the city
the sparrow is notorious pest.
1t destroys fruit. as cherries,
grapes, pears, and peaches. It
also destroys buds and flowers of
cultivated trees. shrubs and vines.
In the garden 1t eats seeds "a they
ripen, and nips off tender young
vegetables especially peas aud
lettuce, as they appear above
ground. It damages wheat and
other grains, whether newly sown,
ripening or in shocks. As a flock
lof sparrows requires daily The
equivalent Of quart Of wheat,
the annual loss caused by these
birds throughout the country il
extremely great. It reduces the
r'Nmbers of some of our most USE
