a system of taxation which, as 1t seems
to me, might well serve as the model for
progressive legislation in our own state
and country. / do not hesitate to go for
material to the very antipodes; for New
Zealand is after all nearer akin to us in
habits, customs and tradition than our
neighbors, Mexico and Cuba. And per-
haps New Zealand is the only people
which has overthrown monopoly in q
pitched political battle.
Land monopoly" and here I quote II.
D. Lloyd's Newest England" was the first
to be attacked and the first means of at
tacking it was that ancient, constitutions
al and inalienable weapon-the tax
There are six special features in the new
taxation:
u. Land and incomes, especially those
of corporations, are taxed for national
purposes.
49, This taxation is progressive, and
heaviest for the rich.
"S. Improvements are exempt.
"A. Small estates and small incomes are
not to be taxed
IS. Mortgages are deducted from the
property of the small taxpayer.
"6. Absences are penalized. Newest
EIgland page 112.
THE New Zealand income tax follows
the same lines of policy as the land tax.
The small man is exempt. The rates in
crease as the income increases" But
corporations, joint stock companies, are
not allowed the exemption" "They must
pay on all their income. page 11S).
AS to the purpose to be achieved by the
rev taxes, "the premier was explicit; the
graduation of the taxes was to check
moro opoly. He did not shrink from rails
ing the issue between the rich and the
poor In closing the debate, he said:
I care little for the mere capitalist.
care not if dozens of large landowners
leave the country. For the prosperity of
the colony does not depend upon this

Zealanders as it should have done.

Mr.. Lloyd found it universally avowed
in New Zealand that the present taxes
are only the beginning" They are to be

for which the ieform was begun" (Pages

ference in the political climate of this
far distant paradise and our own. Inti-
nations are not lacking that in Newest
England some of our methods were tried
and found wanting. To quote again.

"Taxattion dn New Zealand) had been
one of the most effective instrumentai-
ties of the monopolists. especially the
property tax. This property tax, like that
still in vogue in many of the common
wealtrs of the United States (sic) had
become exceedingly unpopular, and its
abolition was made one of the chief Is
sues of politics." when the election
was held, the tax was buried forever
This is the New Zealand achievement.
What have we by way of comparison in
America? A chaos of futile and abortive
efforts to reform. Everywhere the pa
trotic leader becomes entangled in a
web of constitutional restrictions. There
are state commissions TO fix the rates Of
railroads and federal courts to annul the
same; income taxes which we're perfectly
constitutional in time OF war (When the
government needed the money! --but are
declared null ind void when passed in a
sririt of social reform. Finally, we have
telegraph companies which are agents of
the federal overnment-whatever that
phra Sc may mean--for the purpose of re-
sisting local municipal taxation, but which
are unquestionably private corporations
in the division CT their profits. How long,
one wonders, will the old evasion work? If
the administration at Washington is rad
ical. argue strenuously for states rights;
If the state governments turn progress

1t is only New lealanders that possess
an 'inalienable and irresistible power OF
taxation which the monopolsts cannot
withstand, and which the state can never
lose" In BRIEF. they are freer citizens
than we. Yours very truly,

tliey epgrate. We believe that we have
a better method of keeping informed on
the industrial condition of the country,
and the moment information reaches us
of some industry which is seeking other
claims we get after it hammer and tongs
and usually induce it to settle in our
midst.
PAY rolls are the thing wanted in any
city. If we increase the pay rolls the
people win come to us. AS the pay rolls
and the population increase the demand in
ali commodities and goods will increase,
and soon reports will be spreading about
the state that Admission is good place to
start in business. al il is a live town
OF course, the Industries we are seeking
to land in Admission are Industries that
would be suitable to this locality, such
as pipe works and other industries that
would manufacture the raw pig iron into
the finishe product.
The manufacturing of pig iron into
the finished product is coming to be the
chief industry of Alabama cities within
100 miles of Birmingham. Ii looks to me
as is Birmingham is TO become the Pitts
burg of the south in the output of pig iron
while the smaller cities in the environs
will become manufacturing centers of the
finished product.
Admission with its excellent railroad ia
cilities and natural resources seems to be
in for an era of prosperity, and as our
method of being always on the job after
new Industries to locate in this vicinity
is constantly showing excellent results,

Grip Frustrating
Thousands
The severe and unreasonable weather
believed to be responsible for
The increase

Reports from all over the country indi-
cate great increase in the number of
cases of grip and pneumonia, and the un-
usually dangerous form that grip is
taking this season.
Grip and pneumonia attack quickly the
system run down from overwork, from
exposure and from the strain of worry.
They are especially dangerous at this
season of the year, when people ofttimes
neglect to prepare themselves for the sud
den and severe changes of weather and
prevent the consequences of unexpected
exposure.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whskey has been re-
cognized as the most effective remedy
and preventive of grip, pneumonia,
coughs, colds and diseases of the respira
tory organs. Physicians use. recommend
and prescribe it In private practice and in
hospital work.
The secret of the marvellous success of
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey in relieving
and preventing throat and lung troubles
lies in the fact that it is one of the great
est strengtheners and health builders
known to medicine. 1t not only checks
the raVages of the disease itself, but pre-
vents the waste of tissues, and helps the
stomach to more perfectly digest and as
simulate food.

Irving Batcheller the northern New
York novelist, wrote a good book entitled,
Keeping Up With Lizzie' which is a
strong but subtle arraignment of Amer
lean extravaganza.
1.-THE matter of our exertvagance out

author "We are all trying to keep up with
Lizzie, and it is far too hot a pace for
us to follow. How many are falling by

This is the kind of thing that keeps
people poor. For the sake of ''cutting a
good figure in society many people cut
no figure at the bank. They sacrifice fu-
ture comfort and independence for the
sake of a little present satisfaction.
Don't try to keep up with Lizzie" You
can't do it, because there will always be
somebody just a little ahead of you in the
race of extravaganza.

Admission, Februarg 26-(speeial.)-In an
interesting interview today, Secretary L.
c. Watson of the Chamber of Commerce
talked of the work of the local civic
chamber and its general plans for the fu-
tnre. According to Mr. Watson the An
niston chamber is not seeking by exten-
siye advertising to bring people here who
might come with the idea that they might
find the streets of beautiful Anniston lined
with gold, and upon finding that they
were merely well paved streets start to
knock the city. Mr.. Watson does not be-
leve in that kind of advertising. and his
opinion is upheld by the majority of his
associates in Chamber Of Commerce work
in Admission. Secretary Wilson said:
What we want in Admission more than
anything else is pay rolls, and in a quiet.
unobstrusive way we are getting them.
We are not advertising Admission in the
large northern papers as some CONNER
eial clubs of southern cities are doing,
for the simple reason that we are of the
opinion that Admission should stand on
its own feet and the people should recog-
nize its merits and come to settle in this
locality of their own volition.
advertising would of a certainty bring

most of these would go away again, as
