Meddlesome MckilIip.

A letter from the office of the state
superintendent of education had al
most the effect of a bomb shell in
Houuiam last week. The local schoo
board was notified that it was illeg
ally organized as a district of the
first class, that the directors were
illegally elected and that it should
henceforth be recognized only as
district of the second class.
When the Office of the state board
was visited. it was discovered that
the perturbation in our neighborins
city was caused by letter from N.
d. McKillip. of Montesano. written
Just before he vacated the office OF
county superintendent. in which he
took the position that as the census
OF 1910 showed Hoquiam with less
than 10000 population. its organiza-
ton as a first class school district
was illegal, and upon this letter the
state superintendent acted. without
looking the matter up.
1t now develops that Hoquiam, as
a city of the second class. is entitled
to become first class school dis
trict. and the only result of the I'M
warranted interference of Mckilllp
was annoyance to the Hoqulam
board of education. and the placing
of the state superintendent in an EN-
position.

The Publicity Ordinance

TIL ordinance permitting the levy
of a small tax for publicity purposes
will be presented to the city council
tomorrow evening and should pass
The city should have the right to
levy this tax if it so desires. and the
passage of the ordinance does not
carry the tax with it. but simply per-
mits the representatives of the peo'
pie to levy the tax when 1t is de-
manded. A refusal to pass the ordi-
nance might be construed as a fear
that the demand Of the people for
the tax might compel the levy. in
which case the council. by rejecting
the permission. would stand in the
position of refusing popular de-
mand. Pass the ordinance and con-
slider the tax levy when the time ar
rives.

Mr. Smith. therefore suggests that
when an applicant for citizenship
calls to file a petition. that he be ad-

naturalization. that he may decide
whether to file a petition based upon
the declaration and make new one.
which of course. would mean delay
of two years before he could file a
petition for citizenship based thereon.
Mr.. Smith further says that While
this is the view entertained by the
bureau of naturalization. that the Ques-
ton raised can only be decided au.
thoritatively by decision of the court

Cleveland Reforms Tax Appraisals

In the comprehensive presentation
by the Monitor of the facts relating
to the progress made by Cleveland,
O.. along the line of technical real
estate appraisement. certain tangible
results may at once be grasped by
the ordinary reader There existed
three years ago conditions which rem
dered an equitable appraisement of
real estate values impossible. De
cades had been spent in the build
ing up of a system which was meant
to relieve certain interests of their
just obligations to the public What
the rich and powerful escaped in tax
alton was largely. although not alto
gether. saddled upon the poor and
powerless. Much that should legiti
mately find its way into the public
treasury was lost altogether. with the
result that improvements which
should have been instituted were post
poned or abandoned.
Tom l.. Johnson was justly given
credit for inaugurating the movement
that has within the period named rev.
olutionized Clevelands taxing meth
DDS. Units of value were determined
upon bases that were unQuestionable
and operating from these it was not
difficult to discover an equitable tax
rate. no matter how difficult it might
be later to apply it.
1t did not take long to arouse OPP
position. nor did it take long for this
opposition to become organized. but
the leaders Of the new movement were
armed with unassailable facts. and
with these they won their way to
popular support. The tax rate. as
consequence of the new process OF
appraisement was reduced from So
mills in the dollar to 1876 mills. and
notwithstanding the reduction the
revenue of the city was increased.
Many of the DIRECTORS actually found
themselves taxed more lightly than
under the old system. There has
been REIMBURSEMENT of valuation all
over the city and this is but another
way of saying that there has been
more equitable distribution of the
tax on real property. Especially no.
ticeable is the shift in valuation from
the outlying districts. where it has |
been excessive and burdensome to
the home.maker, to the downtown
district. where it has been too low. /
1t is not claimed that Cleveland
has by any means perfected its tax
ing system. This must be matter
of education and growth. But what
may be reasonably asserted is that
a great change for the better has
been brought about, and that. ad-
hitting existing inequalities. the
community through the application
of intelligent and honest methods OF
taxation is on the high road to sub
stantial justice for all its people
