The conditions as we find them in
Lake County, exist in every other
county of the state, and in conclu-
sion | wish to bring the following
facts home to every farmer and
every taxpayer in Lake County and
in the state as well:
lst;-The state taxes on Lake
County farm land for the year 1913
is a trife lower than for the year of
1912.
2nd:-The total amount of state
taxes on all Lake County property
for the year 1913, is $3, 525. 90 less
than it was for the year 1912.
3rd:-That the increase in the to-
tai amount of taxes on a given tract
of Lake County land for the year Of
1913, over the total amount of taxes
on the same tract of land for the
year 1912, is in nearly every in
stance due to the increase in the
county, school and road tax leyies.
4th:-That the State Administra.
ton and the State Tax Commission
levy the state taxes, and have no
control over county, town OF school
taxes, which are levied by the
County Commissioners, t~ownboards
and schoolboards respectively.
5th:-That misrepresentation on
the part of a candidate for political
purposes is not an excuseable sub
terfuge. 1t is criminal and the per-
son, or candidate who resorts to it
cannot be trusted as a public ser-
want.

west beyond the railroad track, let
the fox out and gave chase. The hunt
was of short duration. After a chase
of about so rods, Reynard was tossed

The above table is a correct state
ment of the 1912 and 1913 taxes on
the land therein described. | have
selected the above described land
from the various townships for the
reason that the owners thereof are
all well known citizens of Lake
County; also for the reason that the
valuation on the land so selected is
a fair average valuation of the land
in the respective townships,
The average valuation of Lake
County land for 1912 was ST., 5000
per quarter section and the average
valuation of Lake County land for
1918 was $7,675.W per quarter sec
ton, or nearly four times higher
than 1912.
The State levy for 1912 was four
mills and the state levy for 1913 is
only one mill, or one-fourth as high
as 1912.
A one mill levy means Sl.OO of
taxes on every 81. 10000 valuation,
To find the amount of state taxes a
person has to pay on a given tract
of land, simply look at the valuation
as given ON the tax receipt and cut
off three figures from the right and
we have the state taxes in dollars
and cents. AS an example: If a
piece of land is valued at IS, $40 the
state taxes are 80. "a. If valued at
so, 463, the state taxes will be
So 6.
The average state taxes or Lake
County land for 1912 was 81. 20 per
quarter section and the average
state taxes of Lake County land for
1913 is $7.67 per quarter section, or
on the average &c lower than in
1912 on every quarter section in
Lake County.

Turning to the above table il will
be seen that the state taxes for the
year 1912 and for the year 1913 re-
main practically the same. On
some quarters, it is a few cents
higher, on others a few cents lower.
The state taxes, however, are an
exceedingly small part of the total
amount of taxes which a farmer has
to pay. On the other hand,
examining the column of county
taxes it will be found that the coun-
ty taxes for the year 1918 has more
than doubled over the county
taxes for the year 1912. The
increased county levy was pos
sibly made on account of the 1911
road law, the mothers pension fund
and for the purpose of taking up
the $4,000 county bonds due in
1915.
Turning to the column of school
taxes, we find that in some of the
townships, the school taxes for the
year 1912 and the year 1913 remain
practically the same, on the
average a small increase. The
school taxes of Summit township
alone shows a decided decrease,
while the school taxes in Chester
township and Wentworth township
have nearly doubled over the year
1912.
The township taxes for the year
1913 do not only include the town
ship general taxes, but also the
township road taxes as provided by
the Session Laws of 1911. In Lake
County this law was referendumed,
and vas voted on by the electors of
Lake County, at the general election
in 1912, and was adopted by a large
majority.
In some of the above named town.

WHITE SLAvERS
Large Percentage of Them are
Feeble Minded Says Mas
sachusetts Report.

Boston, March 13.-''The fact that
one. half the women examined were
actually feeble minded, says a report
submitted to the legislature by a com
mission appointed by the governor and
the council to investigate the s~o-called
white slave traffic" in Massachusetts
clears the way for successful treatment
of this portion of the class.
Such women under arrest as are
found to be feeble minded or defec-
tive, it is suggested. should be placed
under custodial treatment. The
recognition of feeble minded girls at
an early age in the public schools
and proper povision for their protec-
ton or custodial care in an i~nstitu-
ton would prevent much of the OBJ
served immortality among young girls
Fnd the resulting temp alton to boys.
The commission finds no evidence of
the irregular connection of the police
| with this illicit traffic in the larger
cities, "in Ii arked contrast with the
conditions revealed in vice investiga-
tions in other states Nor has any
| evidence been found Ct an organiza.
ton for the buying and selling of
women for immoral purposes, though
| millions of dollars are invested in
establishments utilized for such pur-
| poses, and the traffic in all it's Iamifi-
cations constitutes a vast business
extending all wei the state.
The most open and fragrant instance
Of the commercialized aspect of the
traffic the commission finds in connec
ton wi h certain cafes and saloons,
licensed and therefore immune from
police inter ference under the letter of
the law. There is" says the report
IAN intimate connection between GER
tain phases of the liquor traffic and sex
immortality. 1t is probable that men
engaged in the. legitimate liquor traffic
business would cooperate to ~disassoci-
ate this alliance.
While in no city has the policy of
aggregation and federation been openly
adopted, yet ii is a fact that 10 certain
cities there are streets where there are
many d~isorderly houses. "and in these
cities the traffic is conducted in much
the same way as in cities in other
states where segregation and liberation
is the accepted official policy"
The commission has conducted a
detailed investigation in 10 cities and
towns and groups of women under
arrest or serving sentences in penal
institutions have been examined aud
studied. 1t recommends the appoint
ment of well qualified women with
the proper authority as adjuncts to the
police systems CT the larger cities as an
aid in reaching and influencing reck.
less and unprotected young girls"

Statement of Henry Rohrer, County Treasurer
of Lake County

The following table has been pre-
pared by the County Treasurer of
Lake County, showing that the in
crease of the total amount of taxes
of Lake County land for the year 1913
over the taxes of Lake County land
for the year 1912, is entirely due to
local ~levies, and that the state taxes
on Lake County land for 1913 is on
the average lower than the state
taxes on Lake County land for the
year 1912:
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1914-03-13

The total amount of state taxes
paid on all property in Lake County
for the year 1912 was $27, 231. So,
and the total amount of state taxes
levied on all property of Lake Coun-
ty for the year 1913 is S23, zoe. 68, or
S3.525.W less than the county paid
in 1912.
Why then does the total amount
of taxes on Lake County land foot
up higher in 1913 than it did in
1912?
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1914-03-13

ships, the road taxes levied for the
year 1913 are quite small. In such
townships as Clarno and Herman,
however, the road taxes levied for
the year 1918 are considerably larg-
er than any previous road taxes
levied in those townships. The
road taxes now being payable in
cash and included in the general
township taxes have considerable
to do with the increase of the total
taxes ON a given farm.

WH|TLOCK SAVED
 ANTWERP BUILDINGS
Ambassador Persuaded Ger man General Not to Fire
 on Structures

Antwerp. October 2s.-(Via London, 9:2O Q. m.)-To Brand Whitlock, American minister to Belgium, is due credit for sav ing the cathedral. art galleries, churches, theatres and public buildings in Antwerp during the recent German pombardment.
 When the Germans approached Ant werp Mir. Whitlock asked their eomman- der General Won Der Goltz to spare the historic buildings. General Non Der Goltz agreed to use his good offices if MT. Whitlock would prepare maps for the German aeroplanists. that they might di rest the firing. Henry w. Diederich, American consul general, then arranged large maps on which were indicated points which was desired should be avoid- ed by the German shells.
 General Won Der Goltz explained to MT. Whitlock when he received the maps that his gunners could not absolutely reg ulate their shells from directions given by the aeroplanists as the guns were To- eated miles away from the city. He added. however, that his men would do their best.
 The shooting was so sklllful that the palace of justice was the only large gov ernment building struck It was slightly damaged. A bomb struck the fence of St. Peter's church. The slight damage done to the city is considered remark able in view of the fact that in addition to the three days bombardment Zeppe- lins and Taube aeroplanes made attacks.

"Vitalitas complexions" are to be seen On the streets of towns and cities through out the south These complexions are not 'canned' products and there is noth- ing else like them except the bloom of nature itself. All the beauty doctors and all the complexion remedies in the world cannot duplicate them. They tell of rich blood, of steady nerves and of proper digestion. One of the marvellous things about this new complexion is that it is being worn by many who were invalids: who for years were emaclated. enaemc and who suffered with rheumatism, in- digestion or some chronic kidney or liver disease. In Vitalitas they not only found relief but d return to rosy health.
 Nitalitas is natures greatest curative. il cleanses and revitali2es the system. at tacks diseased and impotent tissues throughout the body and begins the work of correction.

RELIGIOUS ISSUES
 USED|N CAMPAIGN
Leaders Express Regret That it Should be Playing
 Part in Many Contests

Washington, October 2s.-tSpecialo-By no means the least interesting features of the congressional campaign in wide areas of the country are the prominence of religious issues and the course of the newspapers in breaking the Ice Of silence OF that subject in which formerly they had been frozen tight. Even newspa- pers in the national capital refer to It oonspicuously and display it in headlines on their dispatches.
 Apparently the question of religion is more prominent in New England and the northern states from Maine to the Mississippi river than in the south, and in many congressional districts and in some state elections it actually Is wiping out party lines. Much talk of the &C., tivities in Washington of one element has been heard for sometime, and the reports in many districts of these activities have stirred up the subject more strongly.
 In Massachusetts, for instance, the re- ligious question has been injected into the fight for governor, and also 1t may decide the election in two or three con- gressional districts. Time was when a member of one religious faith was barred from the sovernorship in the Old Bay State but that time has passed, and that element now has not only the gov ernorship, but also so many other of fices that other elements have risen up against its continuance or extension of control. .
 The elections for governor and con- gressmen from the Eleventh and Six teenth districts of Massachusetts hinge largely on this issue and it also may decide one or two other districts.
 To such an extent has the issue of re- ligion gone in New York that President Wilson has been brought into the con troversy, Dudley Field Malone saying to sn audience at Rochester:
 'It has come to my notice that certain well known gentlemen have been inject ing a religious issue into this campaign, and claiming that they have, in fact, the private but actual support of the Presi- dent of the United States for their can didacies and political purposes. I want to say of my own knowledge and with full authority that when President Wilson publicly indorsed Mir. Glynn's candidacy for governor he meant it in it's full and great significance.
 And to the gentlemen spreading these lies I commend the sentiment of President Wilson when he said There is nothing so contrary to the spirit of America and her institutions and so degrading to the personal character of any man as the possession of religious intolerance.
 Likewise in Illinois no secret is made of the prominence of the issue of religion, while also it is conspicuous in several sec tions of New Jersey and Pennsylvania and Ohio and Indiana.
 That religion should be dragged into the field of politics will be deplored by many men of many creeds, but that it has been so dragged there is now no question: and to such an extent that even the newspa- pers no longer can keep silent on the con dition, but have been forced to abandon their long, long reticence and look the situation in the face.
