STATE TAX COMMISSION is ADvo.
GATED.

A state commission, with power tc
adjust matters affecting the assess
ment and taxation OF property was ad-
yoeated by Judge n L. Williams in his
speech at shawnee. Such a commits
slon could undoubtedly accomplish
much in relieving tax payers Of unjust
burdens. Judge Williams explained
his ideas as follows.
Il am in favor OF amending the con
stltution so as to abolish the state
board of equalization. and create 4
state tax commission with both adj
mlnistrative and judicial power so as
TO adjust all controversies as to equal
ization and assessment. This can be
done without creating any additional
expense to the taxpayers State offic-
als, now members OF the board of
equalization, not having to perform
such duty can get along without a
deputy and the expense OF the deputy
viii more than pay the expenses of
the tax commission. AT the same time
the people Of this state will be afford
ed just protection against abuses and
errors in the equalization Of property.
However, as long as the state board
Of equalization remains with us am
in favor of adopting system that will
not work hardship upon the people
Of the state. Let the existing provis-
ions for appeal as to equalization as
between classes of property and indi-
viduals remain and let that be an ex-
elusive remedy, but when the question
arises as to the erroneous equallza-
ton of property where it has been as
sessed In excess CT its fair cash value,
let the taxpayers have access TO the
courts at any time prior to its pay
ment in order to have relief against
the assessment in so far as it may be
above fair cash value, provided that
az the time he files his application for
relief he pays into court the tax due
on basis Of a fair cash value"

OKLAHOMA THE STATE FOR THE
YOUNG MAN.


< A circular issued by the Rock Isl
and Railroad company sets forth ad
vantages which oklahoma offers to
the young man in the following Ian
guage:
Oklahoma is q young mans country
The oldest native citizens have been
voting but a few years In the "big
run" that in a day made the popula.
ton greater than that of any one OF
several states were people from every
state in the Union This movement
brought together at once many Of the
Z best and few Of the worst Of the
people from every section. Each came
with his own peculiar training and
local opinions and views; all had 4
common object the building OF a
home, and the securing Of a compef
tence.
They braved hardships to make
homes. they had a common bond in
ambition, in hard work, patience and
enthusiasm Necessity forced strang
er to become acquainted with strang
er, and there was fusing o. the best
ideas and the newest untried schemes
Of all the world. Precedent counted
for nothing. Ii any plan looked good
big majority voted to try it. If the
trial made a favorable showing the
idea was adopted II unfavorabe, It
was rejected and everybody was de-
lighted that another experiment had
heen tried.
The mixing and grinding and fusing
together which is still in progress
makes Oklahoma distinctly the young
mans state Nobody cares who new
settlers ancestors were, or what they
Or he had done. The community puts
to every man the questions, What can
you dog How wen can you do 1t? It
Is efficiency that is demanded
There are great opportunities for
every capable young man. The aver
age population per square mile in OK
lahoma is 239, in Kansas 20.7, and in
Nebraska 15.5. While this apparently
indicates rather close settlement for
the west, only "a per cent Of the till
able land Of the state is under culti-
yation. The young man finds that
tfree-fourths Of the area Of this most
fertile state is waiting for him and
for men like him to make money rails
ing large crops. and in breeding and
raising and feeding live stock.
