Katherine Kane, %.
Kinsella refused TO make public the
terms of Marquards contract with Man

D ILL SMITH started his men at

Thomas has a think tank filed

he doesn't sldestep or duck them.
Instead, he simply beats the other
fellow to the punch, thereby cost

Of landing. Abe Attell is the only
other fighter l ever saw who com

Give !. a Trial.

"Just at present the new tax
law Is the subject of comment
among Vermont taxpayers. Much
of the good and evil predicted is
imaginary and unfounded, and
only a fair trial will show its
merits and dement's. II would
probably be impossible to formu-
late a tax law that would meet
every condition alike. The best
that can be done is to formulate a
law that will be Just and fair to the
greatest number. The only reason.
able way is to give this new law a
fair, honest trial. Meet it squarely
without lodging and from the re
suits the good features can be re-
tanned and unjust features remedied
AS We view It the greatest good will
result from this law in the fact that
a step has been taken towards a
right and equitable law, and casting
off the old law, which every one
knows was unjust and the greatest
incentive to perjury since the dis
closure feature of the old prohibitory
law was taken from the statutes
Let's be fair to the new law and give
II an impartial trial."-Groton Times
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1913-04-01

There is a great deal of specula.
ton as to what the listers in the
small towns will do in April under
the new taxation law. II they faith
fully discharge their duties accord
ing to the solemn oaths OF office
they haze taken, one thing is GER
tain. and that is there will be the
"sorest" lot of farmers Vermont
ever saw. Every head of livestock,
every bushel of grain and ton OF
hay, every machine, should be as
sessed at its real value-no under
valuation, no offsetting! The new
taxation law, IL it is properly en-
forced. will be as heavy burden,
comparatively, and as unjust to the
farmers as 1t will be to the mer-
chants and manufacturers. But will
the listers OF farm personal proper
ties strictly follow the law? VIII
they? We will wait and see.-Rut-
land News.
They never have and IL isn't to be
expected that they will change now.
Neither real estate nor tangible per
sonal property have ever been put
into the list except in few towns at
anything like their actual value and
they never will be as long as listers
fix their own standard. A board OF
listers isn't going to quarrel with the
people of their own town to any
great extent. 1t isn't to be expected
that they will. Most of them will
do under the new law as they did
under the old, put in the property at
somewhere from half to two thirds
of its actual value. We all hate tc
pay taxes and we all kick about the
heavy burden, but as matter of fact
only mighty few are being over
taxed. 1t is a good thing for US
sometimes to think of the blessings
we enjoy through the fruit OF taxa
households, roads, bridges. sew
ers, water, lights, Libraries, side
walks, fire protection, sanitation, etc
Not any of these are perfect but they
are all pretty good and we couldn'
have them but for public taxation
Very few of us pay more than oul
share toward the support of our pub
| lie institutions. We didn't under thu
oil dalw and We shall not under the
new.

If the position taken by Tax Com
missioner Plumley is right, II will
mean another setback for the credit
system of doing mercantile business,
for no merchant can AFFORD TO have
accounts on his books on which he
must pay taxes at local rates.-Barre
Times.
Haven't these accounts always
been subject to taxation at local
rates and escaped largely because
the man or firm to whom they were
due didn't put them into his list or
only to a very small extent? Tax
payers should remember that 1t was
the abuses of the law that brought
about the change and II this new law
is evaded and abused 1t is pretty sure
to lead to something still more
drastic.
