that line. THE Daily Mall expressed
a like view in terms Of characteristic
energy Here was an example OF mat
peril which Mr.. Garvin pointed out not
long ago in 1.-The Pail Mall Gazette:
the peril Of too great authority con-
centrated in a single man; Lord North-
cliffe. who practically owns The Daily
Mail" and practically controls The
Times" The controversy spread, and
became fierce, and for time the
I-nionist party appeared 10 be in dan
ger of disruption. or Of losing its leader.
The attack on Food Taxes was repre-
scented as an attack on Mr.. Bonar Law.
Radical journals welcomed all this with
whoops Of delight Their outcry
belped the Unionists TO understand how
critical the position was, or might
easily become. So presently, Mr..
Laws opponents explained that though
,bev could not agree with him in his
,ood.taxing policy, they were loyal to
him as leader. and would regret moth
ing more than his retirement Then
they started a man-to-n1an canvass OF
tho I-nionist members of the House of
Commons. from which IT appeared that
ont Of 2S2 members not more than -
were food takers: or in favor OF making
taxes on food plank in the party plat
form at the next election. or such
nreponderance Of hostile opinion among
his followers any party leader would
have TO take account

matters: agreed in opposing Home Rule

The Hopkinsville Business Mems
Association held banquet few
nights ago in order to sum up and
celebrate some Of its achievements
and to discuss plans for future work.
A number Of subjects germane to
the occasion were handled by able
speakers, the programme including
an address by Judge Breathitt on
"The Constitutional Tax Amend
>pt." At the conclusion of Judge
tathitt's speech, which was the
last of the set speeches, the follow
ing resolution was offered and was
adopted without dissenting vote:
BE it resolved by the Hopkins
vile Business Mems Association, now
in session at the Avalon, this Oath
day of October, 1913, that said asso
citation is heartily in favor of the pro-
posed constitutional tax amendment
permitting change in our present
system of taxation, to be voted on at
the November election, for the fol.
lowing reasons, and that it commends
said proposition to the earnest and
thoughtful consideration of the vot-
ers of Hopkinsville and Christian
county:
First Because the present law
does not afford sufficient revenue for
the expenses of the Government.
"Second-If not changed the next
Legislature will be compelled to raise |
the tax rate, which will simply re-
suit in more taxes on the property |
now assessed and already paying
than its share.
VMhird-If not adopted now five
years must elapse before the ques-
ton can be voted on again.
Fourth-If the new law is unsat-
isfactory the people will have a right
to vote on it before it can go into
effect.
Fifth Because our present tax
law drives people and capital from
the State and keeps others from COM
ing in.
Sixth-Because the present tax
law is obsolete and unfair, as it inn
poses a double burden on some and
permits others to escape.
"Seventh-Because under tn e
present tax law every man is practic-
ally his own assessor, and the honest
man has to pay for his less scrupu-
lous neighbor.
Eighth -B ause all taxation
should be fair and uniform, and all

The governor of Kansas has re-
Gently issued a public statement
saying that he hoped that no one
would waste pity on the people of
his state because of the unpreced-
ented heat and drought Of the
West. He declared that the people
had S20O,O0O,OOO on deposit in the
banks. Further he said;
As matter Of fact. Kansas.
which last year produced S325.QoO,
600 worth of farm products, can
better afford such roasting and

she can better afford thi, or
any brand of calamity, for her
people are not constantly paying
out huge sums for the care and
keep of criminals, pauper,, insane
and feeble minded.
In eighty-seven of her Io5
counties there are no insane. In
fifty-four of this number there are
no feeble minded. Ninty-,iy coun-
ties have no inebriates. and in the
other nine they're a scarce a.

poorhouses are as empty as a last

these have been 50 for the best

AT one time not long ago the
jails in fifty-three counties were
empty and siXty-fve counties were
on the roll as having no prisoner,
serving sentence in the penitenti-
AIRY. Some counties have not called
