the progressive government in this
state. BY our vote we most heartily
indorse the policy which has pro-
gressively increased the state taxes
levied on the town of Trimbelle
from the sum of $739. "a in 1903 to
$4,000 in 1911, and that we feel
ourselves fully able and perfectly
willing that they should be increased
as much more in the next s or 10
years to come. That we favor the
passage Of many and a multiplicity
of useless and extravagant laws
which no lawyer in the state can
interpret, the creation of many more
new offices and commissions with
high salaries, enough at least so that
each of our political managers may
have a good berth. That we favor
new methods of taxation which
shall relieve us of our present sur
plus and is burden to carry around,
that we shall view with alarm any
attempt to reduce our taxes. A
heavy pressure forward along these
lines will secure our hearty support,
with the hope that we may soon
have the few feeble professors smoth-
cred to death in the quagmire Of
politics.
