Britain for the mastery OF the oceans.
Thus far the advantage in increase and
aggressiveness has clearly rested with
the Teutons, whose inspiring genius has
been the Kaiser, well styled by Sir
owen Phillips, chairman OF the Royal
Mail, as "the greatest commercial direct

whole globe tributary to his realm

steamship companies are their response.
II is frankly proclaimed that these
combinations are assured OF the help OF
the British government, which does not

Blood Sucking Taxes.

Out in Michigan they are complaining
because the railroads will not extend
their lines into territory that should
be developed. IL is something Ike the
complaint in Vermont that the cross
state railroad has not been, and Is not
being built and that some other snort
lines are not constructed.
Why is it that those in control OF
railroads do not extend their iron and
give Michigan the transportation ia
cilities it needsl A professor in the
University of Michigan answers the
query by saying that railroads are hav-
ing hard time enough of it as things
are, without increasing their burden. he
points to the Michigan tax law which
is oppressive on the railroads.
The same answer is good in Vermont.
Taxation and other expenses, such as
those demanded by the state in the elm
ination of grade crossings, have driven
Vermont roads to obstruction. When
people ask why railroads do not do this
or that, let them first ask themselves:
Have the railroads the money, and II
not why not. ?" One of the good why
nots- n Vermont, as in Michigan, is the
tax levy plus the cost of grade cross
ing elimination. Vermont will some
time learn that it is a grand asset to
q state to have tax system that
doesn't suck blood. ---St. Adams Mes
