Low Taxes in ohio.

Columbus, o., Jan. 29.--Ohio tax COL
lectors are taking from one-fourth to
one-half less taxes this year from farm
ers, and the latter are feeling even
more friendly to Governor Harmon
than they did in 1910, when the rural
communities contributed the largest
portion of that 100000 majority, which
was given the Ohio executive. Credit
is rightfully given Governor Harmon
for an equalization of taxes, which has
shifted unjust burdens from farmers
and home owners to interests that had
not been paying as much as they
should.
AS figured by the state tax commits
sion which was appointed by Cover
nor Harmon, the average rate of tax
alton on Ohio farming land this year
is mills. Taxes are being paid in the
state on this basis. The average rate
lis less than one half what is was in
former years, and farmers have re-
ceived reductions in taxes that aggre-
gate thousands of dollars annually.
Columbus, o., jan 29.-T. B. Terry
one Of the associate editors of The
Practical Farmer, published in Phil
adelphia, owns farm in northern
Ohio, and he is one of the many thou
sands of farmers who have been bene-
flied by a reduction in taxes, which
came about through a fair distribution
of them during the administration of
Governor Harmon. Mr.. Terry was so
pleased at the successful termination
of Governor Harmon's efforts to lessen
the taxes of the farmers and home
owners, many Of whom had been as
sessed too heavily, by forcing interests
that had not been paying their just
share to contribute their fair portion
toward the expenses of the govern
ment, that he wrote an article entitled
Fair Taxation at Last for The Prac-
tical Farmer.
Mr. Terry's taxes have been reduced
from $17OO per thousand to $3.50 per
thousand.
Mr. Terry, pointing out the defects
of the old system of assessing proper.
ty, said that real estate was valued
very low, a large part of personal
property was never found and that
corporations slipped through without
paying what they should. The result.
he said. was a very high rate and

LOCAL PEOPLE SWINDLED BY BOND

The SChemeTs Are Now Under Indictments.

people have been mulcted of an ag-
gregate sum said to be close to $1OO.-

months ago seven per cent bonds of

pany of Wahluke, Wash. In western
Colorado 1t is said that $3.50. 900
worth of these bonds have been
/ placed at par and are now quoted at
I brokers as worth approximately SC
on the dollar
Several prominent business men of
the city were inveigled in the scheme
TO buy bonds which propose to yield
seven per cent interest, and IL now
appears that their chances OF getting
even small sum for the engraved
certificates are slight. The United
States government has indicted sew
eral men who headed this and asso-
ciated schemes in the northwest and
the United States district attorney at
Portland Is probing the business
transactions of the concern.
During the past fow days a num-
Der of local business men who have
been directly or indirectly connected
with the company by reason of pur-
chase OF the bonds or otherwise, have
been sought by the district attorney
to give further information on the
dealings with the Columbia river
outfit.
From the best information OBJ
tainable II seems that the company
has tract of tillable land, ordinarily
fertile and has feasible scheme of
irrigation. In honest hands the
scheme would undoubtedly be ali
right. The shysters who have been
indicted, however, paid for construc-
tion work with bonds and finally soid
all over the west great quantities of
the paper In order not to default on
the interest, they circulated reports
among brokers that the bonds were
of questionable value and that the
whole scheme was a frost. This had
the effect of placing the bonds on
the market al n low price and they
were able to get In practically all of
the paper for song The profits
on this transaction We're large for
the company. but. unwilling to pass
up any more easy money than nee
essary, they began to use the mails
TO assist them in their fraudulent
scheme, with the result that the

will occur this fall.
