The Legislature is not even safe
from it's own members.
In the beginning there was cry
for the abolition of unnecessary Of
fcers and cutting down the expenses
of the government. officers have
been increased and the expenses of
government have been increased.
We had an agitation in Shelby
County for the adjustment of the
fee system.
Always in the summer, before
election, campaign is carried on
for the adjustment of the fee sys-
TEN. Everybody is for the law. The
measure is usually lost sight of in
the rush of other things.
If the offices are to be cut and the
lees are " ~ lHIO Iu6 OLdL0 Treas
ury, the legislation would be USE
less for us, because the funds of the
State treasury are already for the
greater part recklessly expended.
The fees should be collected and af-
ter the officers are paid just salary
the surplus should go into the gen
eral fund of the county. By this
method 100000 could be added an
nually to the net income of the
county
When the Legislature reconvenes
1t should repeal the polytechnic
school bill, for it is in effect rob-
berry of the school children of every
county in the State except one.
The Legislature should then pass
a revenue bill and provide for an
equal assessment of the property
throughout the State.
Then the Legislature should look
into measures of economy in State |
and encourage an order
ly and efficient enforcement of the |
law.-Commercial Appeal.

What the Legislature Has Not Done.

S~e"S ~S~~
The Legislature of Tennessee hal
adjourned for 80 days, after which
it will hold session Of Is days
Sixty days of the session of the Leg
islature have been consumed.
During that time several thousand
local bills have been introduced
more than thousand have beer
passed; several hundred general
bills have been introduced; few
have been passed.
Tennessee has many problems that
could be solved in such way as to
make the pursuit of health, happi-
ness and prosperity easier for those
who now are poor in holdings of
these things.
The State Legislatures in the South
during the last 10 years seem to
have lost the ability to measure
things at their real value in affect
ing the welfare of the people of the
State.
There is much talk of patriotism,
and yet the expression of this pa
triotism is by lip service and not by
action.
1t would be higher patriotism to
do things for the common good. but
so far efforts for the common good
this year have ended in talk.
Some members feel that if they
make the prohibition law more Sc
we're and add to the already adequate
penal law more laws that they have,
discharged their duty to the State.
Prohibition accomplished so that
all Tennessee would be dry as a
powder horn would not solve the
difficulties of living in the State.
Law enforcing bills without law
enforcing officers are merely salving
the Legislatures conscience.
Prohibition legislation, law en-
forcing legislation are not solvents
of all the ills of life.
The Mohammedans have had pro-
hibition since the creed began, but
they have had nothing else.
Prohibition is all right as far as
it goes, but there are almost two
million people in the State who
never smelled liquor, are not affiict-
ed by it, but are touched with many
other things common to all.
There are some very able men in
this Legislature.
Individually they are intelligent
and fairly we'll educated. A few are
successful as business men. A few
are lawyers of some experience.
The majority, however, are below
the standard of even legislative in
telligence.
When the Legislature convened,
the able men, instead of impressing
their leadership on the body, seemed
to follow rather than lead.
The Legislature as a whole is lack
ing in constructive ability.
It's measure of intelligence is that
of it's weakest members.
Men who ought to lead, men who
know what is good for Tennessee,
seem to lack the courage of their

convictions. They drift when they
could steer.
Certain corporations, whose con
trollers have not yet grasped the
idea that privilege is not right
have taken advantage of this situa
ton. This unlawful control is mani
fest in this Legislature.
The old methods are still in vogue
If member wants fun and frolic il
is easy to find companionship with
lobby, but if one is saturated with
the spirit of self-righteousness, he
will find some of the most eminent
of the Big Business promoters oozing
from every pore of their being the
odors of sanctity.
The farmer to whom everybody
breaches devotion during the dog
days of election time has been abso-
! lutely ignored
The main trouble with the Legis-
, lature up to date has been that it is
a political convention, in which the
race for the United States Senator
ship is being urged.
For several years the State was
torn asunder by fighting between
the regulars and the independents.
The party got together last year
and elected Rye, but the party has
taken another line of cleavage and
the members are separating them
selves into Lea and anti-Lea groups.
Personal politics has not only les
sened the intelligence of our Legis-
lature, but this year it is affecting
the intelligence of men who .ordi-
narily know what is best for the
State and are willing to work for it.
The States is running several
thousand dollars behind in it's reve-
nue..
Instead of cutting expenses to
meet all appropriations or providing
ways to pay for the appropriations,
the Legislature has merely increased
the appropriations.
If the old appropriation bill is
passed and the old taxing system
holds, the State, at the end Of Gov.
Rye's administration, will be deeper
in debt than it was when he took
charge.
1t must be said of Gov. Rye that he
has warned the members.
The Chairman of the Senate FL
nance Committee, Senator Ashcroft,
has drawn budget in which he has
estimated to the dollar the probable
expense of the State, and yet this
budget shows deficit on expenses
and present income.
A small group Of politicians got
together in order and passed a law
which will transfer from the general
education fund one-fourth the pres
emit appropriation for high schools
the State and gave that
amount to a polytechnic school, not
needed, and out of place at its To-
cation if it were needed.
The bill was passed before the
friends of the common schools of
Tennessee knew what was being
done.

WHY COUNCIL WON'T
 TAX CASH AND BONDS

The decision of the Juneau city council not to tax bonds, stocks and money in banks exempts not only money In Juneau banks and evidences of investment in Juneau properties. but it includes money in banks that are located elsewhere, and stocks, bonds and securities indicating in. vestments in other cities.
 For instance, while Che laws in many places endeavor to locate, for taxing purposes. stocks and securities repre-. senting ownership in or claim upon property at the place where the prop erty is located in other States per sonal property Is all assessable at the place of residence of the owner ire spectIve of the location of the proper ty ln every case, however the prop erty which represents the values be- hind the stocks and bonds and other securities is always assessed, and where the evidences Of ownership or claim upon Che property is assessed it is regarded as double assessment
 The most notable instance of ltiga- tion over the assessment for taxation purposes of this class Of securities is that between Ohio and John D. Rock efeller The City of Cleveland and the State of Ohio are claiming millions of dollars from Rockefeller. claiming that the stocks which he owns in prop. critics located in various States are
