POOL ROOMS VS..
PICTURE SHOWS
[Ottawa Sentinel.

Well meaning church people should be
practical and sensible. In town where
pool rooms and picture shows exist the
church folks should attack the greater of
the two evils instead of the lesser. AS a
rule it is much more respectable to at
tend picture show than it is to be in
pool room, where boys under the age of
18 years, and who are permitted to use the
vilest foulest and most indecent language
imaginable. AS a rule picture shows are
fit places for girls and ladies. No one
will argue that all pool rooms are even
a fit place for man or boy. Many pool
rooms are so conducted as to be more
dangerous and degrading than a saloon
ten times over. Boys meet there, and
the favorite topic of conversation is inn
morality and vice. The name of practi-
cally every girl in town is dragged into
the talk and banded about the room fill
ed with the smoke of cigarettes. Every
mother ought to insist that her daughter
have nothing whatsoever to do with the
young man who is seen 1oafing around or
patronizing one of these disgraceful hell
holes. Every young man who goes into
one of these places and engages i'll this
low down immoral talk ought to be made
to feel that he is not fit to enjoy decent
society. He'll is too cold place for the
proprietor who permits his place to be
run in such manner that it becomes the
disgrace of town and the boiling pot Of
cussedness. Pool rooms run decent1y

DEMOCRACY'S ANSWER TO
CALAMITY HOWLERS

Ohios business was conducted eco
nomically last year by the state demo
cratic administration and, as a result,
the commonwealth saved S9l4,72l.@.
This was added to the big nest egg
which stands to the credit of the tax pay
ers in the state treasury.
The total receipts for the year were
sl4, O36, 9O2 andthe disbursements SlS,
l22, ,l3O, according to the report OF
State Treasurer Brennan.
And this grand record of nearly one
million dollars saved in a single year
was accomplished despite all the noise
aroused by calamity howlers that the
commonwealth was approaching bank
ruptcy.
Every move made by the state admin
istration to eliminate duplication of effort
and to save time and money was con-
demned by an army of carping critics,
who alleged they saw machine building
and extravaganza in every new reform
instituted.
The million dollars which were saved
in u months is the answer that the state
administration has to give to all these
alleged critics.

THE THING THAT MAKES TAX
DODGERS SQUIRM

One of the arguments used by the
Ohio Tax Dodgers Association to aid
its members in their fight to prevent the
state taxing machinery being made an
efficient agency for bringing personal
property out of hiding and have it placed
on the tax duplicate is that the Warnes
bill, under which the reorganization is
to be effected, means an extra expense
to the tax payers.
The truth is, the Warnes bill will re-
duce the annual cost of assessing proper
ty. The cost OF the last quadrennial
appraisement of real estate was 81 on, =
95S, and the annual cost of assessing
personal property under the laws is
5000, 600 or an annual expenditure of
more than one million dollars. Under
the Warnes bill the quadrennial ap-
praisembnt OF real estate is abolished,
and both real estate and personal pro-
perty will be appraised each year. One
corps Of assessors will do the work that
two corps has been engaged in. With
valuations kept up to date the necessary
work will be diminished and that means
less expense. Lima Times-Democrat.

WHAT A COMPENSATION
ACT DOES
[Cleveland Plain Dealer. I

IOlCNNldlll L IAN DCdASl'
Ohio has workingmen's compensa-
tioa law, provided the referendum does
not dispose of it. New York state has
none, though an effort was made before
the last legislature to secure one. The
contrast may be illustrated in the case of
the recent factory holocaust which cost
some ffty-fve lives at Binghampton.
The employing firm at Binghamton is
reported to have carried liability insur-
ance. That probably means a fight in
court for each suit for damages filed.
That means lawyers fees, legal delays
and many vexatious developments, and
in the end, means that none of the de-
pendents of the dead, and none of the
crippled is likely ever to gain adequate
compensation. The crippled must go
through life MANNED and handicapped,
possibly helpless and dependent, may
even become inmates of county aims
houses. Society sufferes and individ-
uals suffer.
Had such tragedy occurred in Ohio
the crippled would have been cared for
at the hospitals without expense to them
selves, the best of surgical attendance
would have been provided, there would
have been allowance for expenses and at
the end an adjustment commensurate
with the injury suffered. For the dead
there would have been funeral expenses
allowed, and to those dependent on the

SQUEEZING THE CITY
TENENT

Congestion ofpopulation was the sub
ject of a recent exhibition in Gotham.
One exhibit consisted of a bell, with this
legend beneath it,
Every time this bell rings land
values in New York advance thou
sand dollars"
The bell rang every five minutes. Sales
of choice land parcels at a valuation
equivalent to twenty-five or thirty
million dollars an acre were men,
tioned-alr leading up to the conclusion
that, based on the average rental of a g.
room tenement, about one-third of the
average factory-worker' income goes for
rent-in other words, to support the
enormously enhanced market value of
urban lands that accrues to the benefit
of the landlord.
Buildings are now taxed at the same
rate as land. Thus, if you tear down an
old, noisome, ramshackle disease-breed-
ing tenement worth S., 900 and replace it
with a well-lighted, ventilated, sanitary
structure worth $50, 900, grateful COM
munity Immediately raises your taxes.
Even in crowded Manhattan, over
seven thousand parcels of land lie
vacant, being held by spectators for a
rise. By way of remedy it is proposed
gradually to lower the tax rate on build
ings and raise that on land until the
former is only one-half of the latter; but
prudent landlords generally require the
lessee to pay all taxes on the land.
There is a growing problem here that
will have to be solved before many years.
Landlords will not be allowed to sit on
the city's neck-with both hands in its
pockets-indefnitely. ly.-New York Satur-
day Evening Post

ELECTED THIS FALL
WarnGS and Fitzpatrick Tax Laws
Go TO the People.

Columbus, o., Aug. 5.-Petitions for
referendums on the Warnes tax asses
sor law and the Fitzpatrick tax law
were filed with the secretary of state
by Charles Gongwer, secretary of the
Ohio Equity association. The refer
endum petitions on the Warnes law
contain 74,5O9 names, said to be over
8 per cent of the electors Of 67 coun-
ties Of the state. The petitions on the
Fitzpatrick law have 72,480 names, said
to be over per cent of the electors of
6S counties.
The Warnes law provides for the
appointment of tax assessors by the
state tax commission, doing away
with the election of assessors. The
Fitzpatrick law removes the interior
limitations of the Smith law. Since
the referendum on the Warnes law is
asked assessors must be elected this

DISGUSTED WITH THE
REFERENDUM

The Ohio Legislature recently
passed an employers liability law
which did not suit certain business
interests. So they resorted to the
referendum in hope of defeating it.
They did not know much about the
referendum, having depended for
information mainly upon the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, Cincinnati Times
Star, and similar publications. So
it is not surprising that the thought
that the proper way to work it was
the same as eau so frequently be em-
ployed with success in handling
legislatures and city councils. I'M
der this impression they set out to
get signatures, and soon had more
than sufficient. They filed the petit
tions with the Secretary of State and
they found they had struck a snag.
Governor Cox thought that the peti-
tions looked like the work of experts
of the regime that is passing. He
investigated and found that to be
the case. Most of the signatures
we're forgeries. The petitions are
being held up, and it begins to look
as though this particular matter will
not be put to a referendum vote.
This shows for one thing, that it
is not so easy to invoke the referen-
dun by fraudulent signatures. But
the exposure of the attempt and an
nouncement of its failure is being
used by plutocratic papers as a text
for argument against the referen-
dunn. A writer in franchise mono
polist John r. McLean's Cincinnati
Enquirer of Julg l3 points to the
effort and says: I'VE told you so;
we knew that there would be fraud
in getting names. " OF course I'VE"
did. That element is naturally best
informed regarding the methods it
intends to use. But the incident
shows something more than that
fraud will sometimes be resorted to
secure signatures to a referendum
petition. 1t shows that when fraud
is extensively used it will probably
be detected. Mr.. McLeans writer
forgot to call attention to that 1t
is needless is say that being caught
in the act has disgusted the interests
more than ever with the referendum.
They thought they could use and
discredit il, and find now, to their
disgust, that they have only discred-
tied themselves. . 1t is no wonder
that they are disgusted.
