wIsCoNsIN's INCOME TAX.

Wisconsin has gone ahead on her
own account and established an in
come tax for the benefit of her own
exchequer, says Munsey's Magazine
editorially.
THE Wisconsin law. which becomes
effective with January /, taxes unmar-
ried persons with incomes above eight
hundred dollars a year, and married
persons with incomes above twelve
hundred dollars. For each child in
the family under eighteen years of
age, or other dependent, there is fur
ther exemption of two hundred dol
lars. Therefore, for the average fam
lily. the tax may be said to begin at an
income Of sixteen or eighteen hundred
dollars The tax Is one per cent of
the first thousand dollars above the
exemptions. increasing one-fourth of
one per cent on each thousand up to
five thousand, then increasing one
half of one per cent up to towelve
thousand dollars. Beyond that 1t is
six per cent.
We question the wisdom of fixing
so high a rate as six per cent on in
comes of twelve thousand dollars a
year. In a country where living ex-
penses range on so high a plane as
they do here a six per cent tax. while
not actually confiscatory. is so burden
some that 1t will breed discomfort and
spirit OF revolt"

FIGHTING BOB"

Fighting Bob" Evans, or in offici-
al language, Rear Admiral Robley D..
Evans was one Of our men of action.
Il was his duty as an officer of the
navy to be ready to fight and to fight
when instructed to do so. He was an
able commander and at the battle of
Santiago Bay his ship was in the
thickest of the "doings." Later in
life his ability as an officer caused
President Roosevelt to select him for
the command of the battleship' fleet
which went round the world. He
brought the fleet around Cape Horn
and did so without loss of time and
without mishap. 1t was a fine piece
of work.
The country needs workers, it needs
thinkers and it needs fighting men.
When the fighting men are needed
they are usually needed very badly.
Admiral Evans was a fighting man
and he was always there.

THE WEST LEADS THE EAST.

The governor of Massachusetts,
wants that old New England state to
follow in the footsteps of Oregon by
enacting the initiative and referen-
dunn, the direct primary. the recall.
the presidential preference primary
and other reforms.
This is very complimentary to Ore
gon. Normally one would suppose
Oregon to, be far behind Massachus-
etts in the science of government.
Massachusetts was first settled in
was virtually the cradle of American
civilization. Boston has long been
known as a center of American cul-
ture and learning.
Oregon did not become state un-
ii; the year 1859. Our population is
still sparse and two thirds the area of
the state is unsettled. Until few
months ago the greater part Of Ore
gon had never heard the toot of To-
connective.
Yet Oregon leads the whole coun-
try in the matter of progressive leg
the union to take up the initiative
and referendum. We were the first
to work out feasible plan for elect
ing United States senators by direct
vote, and oregon was the first, or one
OF the first, to adopt the presidential
preference primary law.
The west is leading the east and to
many the situation VIII seem peculi-
ar. Yet there is nothing extraordi-
nary about it, The course of empire
and of progress is toward the setting
sun. The west has lead the east be.
fore. In 1875 Boston was in the west
and England was the east. The
monument on Bunker hill tells the
story of how the American insurgents
OF those days held progressive views
and were willing to fight and die fol
them Then as now the tories stood
for the defense of privileged interest:
and the established order.
The west leads the east because the
west is new country and the east l.
always old The tree of progres:
thrives best in the virgin soil Of new
country. 1t was very hard to estab
lish a republic in Europe. 1t wa!
easy to do so in America. 1t is very
hard for political reformers to make
headway upon the Atlantic coast to-
day 1t is easy to enact reformatory
measures out here.
The most gratifying feature about
the situation is that our form of gov.
ernment permits of change and en-.
ables the people to enact progressive
measures when they learn about them
Were it not for this the east could
not follow the west as it is striving
to do and such men as Governor Fos'
of Massachusetts could not prevail
against the tories of the present time
who want to hold back the old Bay
State and keep 1. from following in
the trail that has been blazed by the
people of Oregon.
