A SCREAMING JOKE

Our idea of a screaming joke is that
preferential primary system down in
old Massachusetts. On a fair, square
vote Mr.. Taft carried the state by
several thousand majority, and yet
the delegates pledged to Mr.. Taft
we're defeated and delegates pledged
to Mr.. Roosevelt were elected by an
equally large majority.
The state went for Taft, but elected
Roosevelt delegates-so the people
do rule in Massachusetts, in the real
up-to-date fashion.

Democracy finds herself in another
financial dilemma. a number Of the
corporations have refused to pay their
taxes on the ground that the asse IS
ments we're made by the state board
of equalization instead OF by the state
tax commission. The last Legislature
created a state tax commission and
gave It the power to fix valuations.
The governor declined to appoint the
commission on account of lack u
finances: The valuations were Fixed by
the state board OF equalization. Nov
the corporations decline to pay their
taxes, maintaining that the valua-
tions were not placed by the proper
authorities. All OF which goes to show
that Democracy is incompetent from
the ground up.
