There are some queer things
about our system OF taxation. Here
Is an example:
Several years ago the editor of
this paper became possessed OF the
laudable ambition To own a home.
Having managed to save up a few
dollars. he purchased. upon the pay
meht plan. a piece OF property which
has been taken in on mortgage by an
eastern Investment company. The
house was in such bad repair that II
was unfit for occupancy. The cellar
~an full O! stagnant water, weeds
grew rankly. the porehes were rot
ted and sagging and house unpaint-
ed and weatherbeaten The surface
OF the lot vas a couple OF feet above
the sidewalk and the earth had wash
ed and so covered the walk that pc
destrfans had to take the street The
place was an eyesore and q menace
to health but We wanted a home and
saw In II possibilities. II was locat-
ed In a good neiE hborhood and from
II We had beautiful view over n
pretty valley. Being rather handy
with tools We went to work before
and after office hours, sodded and
terraced the yard. drained the eel
lar and put In curbing and parking.
We worked early and late until at
last, We had. as many people told
US. one OF the prettiest homes In the
town-and then the assessor came
around and doubled our taxes We
were fined because We had worked
hard and converted disorder into or
der. ugliness into beauty and had
wiped out a plague spot in the neigh
lborhood. !, is true, also. that the
owner OF some vacant lots adjoin-
Ing our place Immediately advanced
them In price but neglected Ia cut
the tall weeds which grew on them.
IL may be added that his taxes were
not increased. although he held his
lots at a higher price.
We have told this little story be-
cause the statement itself ought to
cause someone to do some hard
thinking. There Is surely something
radically wrong with system OF
taxation which fines person for
merely being industrious" - FIRE.

The secret OF success Is not Sc

is 1t something hard to secure To
become more successful. become

SECRETARY BRYAN
DEFENDS OFFICIALS
Editorial In COmmOner on SaT
Francisco Cases.

Washington, July 1.-Secretary OF
State Bryan, assuming the role of Edi
tor Bryan, has come to the defense o;
Attorney General McReynolds, Secre
tary of Labor Wilson and immigration
Commissioner Caminetti in connec
tion with the charges growing out oi
the Diggs-Caminetti white slave
cases.
Spurred to action by an editorial in
the New York World, in which it was
declared that Attorney General Nc
Reynolds ought to resign from Presi
dent Wilson's cabinet, Mr.. Bryan
wrote an editorial for the Commoner.
1t is in part as follows:
"Mr. McReynolds continued the
cases at the request of Secretary Viii.
son and 1t was a reasonable request
The New York World says it does not
doubt that Mr.. McReynolds' motives
were honorable If his motives were
honorable how can his act justify a
demand for his resignation?
Neither can Secretary Wilson be
fairly blamed. He declares that he
was considering the interests of his
department and that he made the re-
quest on his own initiative and with.
out solicitation from Mr.. Caminetti.
"As for Mr.. Caminetti we have
known him for more than twenty
years, and have no hesitation in say.
ing that there is not a more upright
or honorable man in public life."
