MARSH LAND IN THIS PAR
TSH AS BIRD SANCTUARY.

With the idea Of providing a
sanctuary for the birds of North
Tmeriea, where they may be safe
for a time at least from the ruth
less work of the market hunter s
gun. Mrs. Russell Sage has made
a gift of $4,000, which sum il
to be spent almost entirely in the
purchase of Marsh Island. on TIE
cost southwest of New Orleasss.
This island and the mainland near
il has long been known as the
greatest winter bird killing
ground in THE country, where
ducks, geese. robins and other
shore birds were annually slaugh-
tered by tens of thousands for
he Southern, Northern and East
ernnnarkets. 1t has long been a
famors feeding ground for migra-
tory birds and this fact brought
the hunters to ii each winter.
To the end of accomplishing
her purpose Mrs. Sage win place
the control of this great bird re-
fuge in the hands of either the
Federal government. the State OF
Louisiana or some association or
gained for such purpose. The
idea Of converting this island into
asbird sanctuary was first brought
to Mrs.. Sage by Edward A. Me-
llhenny, of tabasco sauce fame.
who, with Charles A. Ward, Of
Michigan, recently gave a $4,000
acre bird refuge on Vermilion
Bay to the State of Louisiana.
In referring to Mrs. Sage's gift
Director w. T. Hernaday, Of tn
New York Geological Gardens,
said that it is the greatest coup
that has been executed in behalf
OF the birds OF North America
since the will Of David Wilcox
financed the National Audubon
Society.
Marsh Island is eighteen miles
long and nine miles wide. and
contains approximately $4,000
acres.

doption is greatly to the interest
of the State and of the individual
taxpayers. And particularly that
those amendments will elualize the
burden of taxation by tightening
its weight on the man of small or
moderate means.
The mere fact that our assess
ments will no longer be dictated
from Baton Rouge, and all our tax
es will be used for our local pur-
poses and to increase our own
property values. commends the
system to every voter.
The undersigned earnestly soil

TO ALL VOTERS

on Thursday evening next at ths
City Hall.
TO ALL VOTERS:
The tax amendments now before
the people for adoption or rejec-
ton, VIII, If adopted, mark one OF
the greatest forward s1eps in the
history OF Louisiana. In the fism
belief that their defeat would prov.
. most serious check to the STATE
prosperity, and would continue IN
effect the many injustices Of the
present tax laws, We earnestly in
Nite your cooperation and youI
vote to secure their adoption.
As reasons Tor your SO uoing, we
suDmit the foilowing.-
First.-under the pan proposed,
your lands, improvements and per-
sonaity will pay no taxes 10 the
State. The revenues lor the Staie
will be derived cnleIly from taxes
on railroads, banks, mines, Inherit
ance, and some oIner subjects Sc
gregated for that purpose.
Hence, all taxes to be paid by
you will be collected and spent To-
caily, under your supervision, Iof
the maintenance OF order anu the
enhancement OF the properly, Oh
yourself and your neighpors.
Sec0nd.-it ~ shown by oIficia.
reports that some parishes assess
property on q basis more tnaal
twice n great as do other Parish
80; 70 that dollar OF value in the
one pays more than twice as great
. tax to the State as does the same
value in the other Parish. For ex-
ample, Z mule in one Parish is as
sessed ut $1,000, while mis- twin
brother across the Parish line may
be assessed ut 5000 or less. Put
In another form,-if the owner OF
the latter pays the state q six mill
tax, the owner OF the former really
pays twelve mills or more.
The same ia equally true rs to
your lands and otner property.
Under the proposed pan you
will pay nothing to the state and
the assessments in other PARISH
e. will not affect you.
Third. The taxes which may be
imposed on your property viii bt
limited by the Constitution anu
cannot be raised beyond the ag-
gregate now permitted.
Fourth.-As sessments are now
made alphabetically, and there il
little opportunity to compare ones
assessment with his neig hb0r's.
The new plsn will arrange ASSESS
mcnts geographically; that 10,
properties adjacent on the grouno
will BE- adjacent on the rolls. These
rolls wifi 81 published in pamphlets
for distribution, and inc qualities
and errors will be readily correct
ed. .
fsifth.-At present all money il
suA Let to taxation; and while tn
assessment rolls show that very
little money is actually taxed, the
attempt 70 do 50 10 unfair to tn
few who list their money in obedi-
ence to law, and besides. induce 4
constant conceaiment Of money
from the assessor rs though "A
were contraband. The amendments
exempt all monies from taxation
thus inviting It into the state,
snakinr II more plentiful, and tend
Ine "a give our people lower rates
81 interest. The prevailing high,
interest rates in Louisiana are
amon9 the greatest drawbacks to-
the prosperity OF our farmers and
Of our industries.
