Greatness Shown in Taxes.

The greatness of Missouri is en-
phatically emphasized by the fact that
1t cost the tax payers of the state
approximately $59,OO0,OOO in 1914 to
meet the governmental expenses of
the state, the ia counties and all
incorporated cities and towns having
population of $500 and over. Only
seven other states of the Union,
namely: California, Illinois, Massa-
chusetts, New Jersey New York,
Ohio and Pennsylvania had a greater
total running expenses. At this point
it is well to mention that the state
of Missouri and its civil subdivisions
had to collect nearly s59,0O0,0O0 from
property owners and business men in
1914 in form Of regular, special, ex-
else and imposed taxes before this
amount could be disbursed for run
