years. He has agreed to move from

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.

Cruel injustices are often practiced
by municipalities.
When what is sometimes strangely
known as improvements" are in pro-
greEs.
The opening of streets, in instance.
The witness heard a story to the eff
feet that in the opening of South Sew
enth street, the owner of a certain
property will suffer seriously.
Now this might follow the improve
ment of street, and if the property
owner was affluent, it might make lit
tie difference to him.
Save in his unjust financial despoil-
ment.
But when it takes one old mans lit
tie substance which he has spent years
in accommodating, then it matters very
materially.
The writer does not know who this
man is.
But the case is one of many.
And is typical of the heartlessness
of municipal corporations. And their
seeming inexorableness.
However we are getting away-and
so fast that it makes the social body
a bit dizzy-from that irresponsibility
of the civic organization which has
been one of it's chiefest characteristics
| throughout the ages.
The fact that one old man, no lon
ger able to work, who, through long
years of toll, has accumulated enough
to buy a home, must be grist for the
municipal mill-thrown into the crop
per and ground to pulp-merely for
what is sometimes ANONYMOUSLY term
ed the larger good" is passing.
The individual right is becoming
more insistent.
Or, rather, the right of the social
body to enforce injustice on the indi-
vidual in the name of the law, is being
vigorously questioned.
If this street, for example, has to be
opened, the man should receive full
value for his property.
Instead, a property upon which he
has been paying city taxes has been
assessed as farm land
The man is thus beaten out of his
just return for the property to be sac
rificed. And, unable to meet the situa-
ton, must mortgage what property is
left.
Now, whether or not he details are
exact in this particular instance, they
have been duplicated a good many
times recently in the improving of
this, and other cities.
One man, who had his little all con-
iscated in this way, committed sui
eide.
The writer was told by an old ser,
want of her family that some neigh.
bors who had, through years of painful
labor, accumulated enough to buy a
home, had to give it up in order to
meet an assessment for a cement side
walk and curb.
And that it so disheartened one OF
the elderly parents-whether the faith
er or mother is not now recalled-that
the former died from the effects of a
sickness following the worry over the
situation.
These things should not be.
No city improvement is that neces
sary.
Certainly some system should be
evolved and perfected whereby the ex
pansion logically attendant upon the
growth of a community should no.
leave a trail of individual devastation
in it's course.
If a mans property is in the way O.
the onward march of local progress
then he should be fully recompenseo
for the formers despoilment

MUNICIPAL INJUSTICE
Practiced Frequently Against Small Property Holders
Who Are Not Able to Meet the Heavy Assess
ments Made Against Them.

Even at that, If this property hap
pens to be a home, mere monetary
consideration cannot fill the vacuum
which follows it's destruction.
But when a civic body nullifes the
honest work of years by one stroke of
the pen then it is time to give pause.
The social body, when separated in
to it's component parts, is found to be
made up of individual units.
OF intelligent units.
These units, fused, make the super
structure of the civic body.
No organization is weaker or stron
ger than its parts.
A blow at the seemingly least i'm
portant of these is a blow at the thing
itself.
1t was through the long continued
assaults on the private right of the
French citizen that caused the bloodi-
est revolution in history.
And it is to a series of acts kindred
to the one here under consideration
to which the present wide spread SO
cial unrest can be accredited.
When the city of Richmond despoils
an old man, unable to work, of his pro
%perty, accumulated, as just said
! through long period of hard labor, it
is no better than the government OF
Louis XVI.
! In fact not as good.
| For Louis XVI was the victim of a
system and proceeded more or less IN
knowingly
Under our democratic form of gov
eminent, however, the civic body
knows exactly what it is doing.
| Therefore it is the more culpable,
The less to be commiserated over
criticism.
1t is this sort Of thing that breeds
anarchy.
/ That intensifies discomfort
1t is injustice-ranka and undeniable
"Well, how are you going to run the
town." asks Mr.. Official. Somebody's
got to suffer. We've got to open up
streets and if anybody's in the way,
: they'll have to get out"
This is specious reasoning
! And the more fallacious because it
has the stamp and endorsement of So
c;ety at large.
! But the fataIistic philosophy which
has for it's tenet the immolation of the
individual who gets in the way of the
Juggernaut of what is called progress,
has few adherents nowadays.
For that progress is merely in name
No progress is deserving the name
which does not carry with it the adj
vancement of every part of the whole

thrifty citizens.
If that thrift is to be nullifed
through official action, there will nc
longer be any stimulating force to
ward accumulation.

life for something only to have it tax

Then the younger generation pro

ply of it's own.

You can pooh-pooh at this all 20,

in the opening of South Seventh stree

How Much of the Tariff Do YOU Pay?

IT 7HE population of the United States u.s. in round
numbers, one hundred million people, ninety-three
Il million to be exact.
Receipts from tariff duties for the year ended
July LIST were three hundred and twelve million dollars
YOU pay just So rs year for protecting the country
and for nsuing YOURSELF against the competition Of
the cheap labor and huge surplus manufactures Of Germany
and England, France and Italy, and other countries.
Under absolute free trade, with all duties removed,
you could not more than this s. 46 year. Under
tariff for only, you would less than that.
And either of these policies would destroy necessary pro-
lection, and mean disaster to American industry.
American products and American labor are protected
by tariff foreign goodsand country prosperous,
and workers enjoy the highest wages in the world
England taxes her home products for only"
throws down the bars to the products and labor Of the
tire world and her workers hopeless and homeless;
their food clothing shelter and pleasures infinitely below
that of the poorest American workmen.
The small amount YOU pay for tariff protection

food clothing and shelter. You paying for v-
ing than you did few years ago. but you getting
BETTER LIVING than you did then.
Prices higher in eoery country in the wod than they
used to be. The Republican principle Of protection the
Tariff and President Taft certainly not to blame for
conditions that worldwide.
Look at this in another way.
Tea and coffee have gone up in price and there is
no tariff on them at all
Boots and shoes, lumber COAL bacon, beef ham, lard
sugar, and salt have gone up in priceyet the tariff
approved by President Taft and for which he has been
mistakenly and unjustly assailed, REDUCED THE
DUTY all these articles!
Raw cotton is free of duty. And raw cotton has
increased largely in price.
But cotton and wool hosiery and underwear both pay
dutyand cotton goods and Aannes are ooer in price.
Shingles have gone down in price-yet the duty on
shingles was increased
The greatest rise in prices twenty years has been
in duty free goods The smallest increase prices has been
in manufactured goods which pay a fairly high ddy
Necessities pay less duty than ever BEFORE luxuries
pay higher duty than ever before!
This clearly shows that the tariff has had little or no
effect the cost of necessities, while it HAS made
market for American products and insured steady
poyment at good and increasing wages for American
wor<men
President Taft approved the last tariff bill because it
the best tariff he could get at the Time And because
it much better than the tariff law then in effect
