The United States of America is
practically the only one OF the greaI
nations where such condition ex1sts.
Nearly every first class nation on
earth levies either an income tax or
an inheritance tax. We have neither.
Why have we never been able to

arises. Here is the answer: Hlgh

& Messenger.
Results count for more than any
thing else. The system of road max
ing in Iowa by township and county
supervision has not been a success,
viewing the matter in a broad way
over the past twenty-five years. !,
liz high time that some other method
was adopted. That is what q b1e
majority Of the people. of this state
believe, and that is why they are de
manding a state highway commission
law from this legislature and 81 are
hoping the lobby of bridge builders
and material sellers who want the
road making done by as many unor-
gained units as possible may be
kicked down the capitol steps.
We have been blowing over the
same old roads for all these years.
The money expenditures of this year
have to be repeated next year. Things
could go on that way for one thou
sand years at one thousand times the
expense and still without decent coun
try roads. We have finally accepted
as true the fact that good drainage
must be had along the highways and
some good work is being done IN
spots: for that purpose. A good many
soptimists think the King drag
il a first class instrument for road
making. The tool may be all right,
and there are a lot of other devices
that might give good service, but the
work is being done under too indefl-
mite authority and with lack OF
cut Efficiently large plan.
The past two or three years have
been fairly dry after the rainy spring
period. Hence the roads have been
some better than normal, and the
King drag is praised for more of the
Improvement than it deserves.
We all want a state highway COM
mission to adopt broad views; to in
Syestigate what is done in other states
and other countries and give Iowa
the benefit of the progressive dis.
coveries that have been made; and
spend the road taxes the way money
is spent ITO build steam railroads
something that will stand the wear
:of time.
"a broad plan to connect each coun-
~ seat in Iowa> with the county seat
ot each adjoining county by good
hard permanent roads is the best
thing that can be worked for in the
beginning. That will give one firsts
class highway, rain or shine, north
and south and east and west through
each Of Iowa's ninety-nine counties.

First of all it means that million

this nation has stood, bear a fair
proportion Of the burden of taxation.
It is estimated that one hundred
million dollars will be raised annually
by taxing incomes. This will mean
that that amount of taxation is to

eial good standing in the association
We hope that the interest which has
been manifested SO far will increase
and that the attendance at the reg
ular monthly meetings Of the Board
will grow larger and larger in sue
cession. Do not think that your
presence is not necessary. 1t is. You
may have some thought in your
mind, or one may be suggested by
that of another, which may result
in accomplishing something Of sig
nal service to the community. Ev-
cry member ought to take this much

hia ppeal than that to which he
is invited and urged. viz: that OF
contributing to the welfare and
progress OF Lakeland.
In conclusion. | want to make a
special appeal; We recently put
through campaign to increase the
membership Of the Board, and the
result is more or less well known to
sOl. Some talk has been made that
4 number of these new members will
never qualify or even pay the ini-
'iation fee they agreed upon when
they signed the application. The
secretary can hardly believe that
any one who was approached by
member of this Board for the pur-
rose of soliciting his membership,
would be wilfully guilty of such dis
honor; on the contrary. we hope and
expect. as we meet each one of these
new members In the very near fu-
ture, to find them more earnest and
enthusiastic than ever; proud and
anxious to belong to such an assO-
citation. Certificates of membership
which have not yet been received
will be promptly placed in the hands
OF those entitled to them, and other
matters which may not have re-
ceived the attention due, will be civ
en- immediate consideration. There
has been no wilful neglect. but sim
ply an extra amount Of work in the
last few weeks for an otherwise busy
nan to take care of. Under new
circumstances, these conditions will
now be changed.
My friends. you have elected your
secretary for year; It were use
less thing for you to do unless you
resolve to stand by him. Will YOU
not, too, be elected for a year If
you will give the work of the Board
your hearty cooperation and en-
thusiastic interest for year, am
assured, beyond the peradventurc OF
a doubt. that you will then have JUS
titled your own action and the action
of him who in accepting the position
signs himself. with best wishes for a
Happy and Prosperous New Year. as

ON THE MISSISSIPPI.

John D. Jones, 5768 La Sale street,
Chicago, has sent TO this office an
article from the Chicago Post bearing
on the early and later days of trans
portation of the Mississippi river.
George M. d. Hakes, who spent every
season on the river between 1846 and
1898lhas been telling iabout the pas
life in the Rock Island Union. The
wreck of the Grey Eagle, the burning
of the Etfie Alton and others have
given the author interesting subjects.
In the Hakes catalogue of ships, it
was the Danube which lost the fancy
tops of her smokestacks in the 1859 by
running into the new stretched tele-
graph wires; it was the Denmark
which brought the first steam calliope
down the river in 1856; it was the
Lamartine on which the chieftain of
the Mormon "Banditti of the Prairies"
killed himself; it was the Lucerne
which first used the "feathering
buckets Every wreck on the north
ern stretches of the river Mr.. Hakes
Identifies.

Governor McGovern will not at

university gymnasium May is, says
the Madison Democrat. This was
made plainly evident Wednesday af-
ternoon when he gave out an inter
view in which he pointedly denied
that be had been invited, as reported
in published statement and declared
that to approach him now with a re-
quest that he buy some tickets to the
function was little better than an
insult. The governor declared the
banquet was not republican, but a
facGional one and that those who had
promoted it would have to play the
game without his assistance. The re-
refusal came when Sol Levitan, who
had charge of the arrangements, went
to the executive Office and solicited
the governor to buy some tickets.
