NO EXTRAVGANCE.
FRED WILLIAMS


In 1907, with the whole world
at peace, the Republicans gave US
a financial panic. In the present
year of our Lord, with the whole
world at war, the Democrats
have not only prevented panic,
but have brought about unprece.
dented prosperity. Mr.. Busi.
ness Man, take your choice.
When the Democratic party
took charge of our State govern.
ment little over forty years ago
the State tax for all purposes
was forty, five cents on the hun.
dred dollars valuation. Today it
is only eighteen cents, and two
cents of that is for the new capi-
tol. Meanwhile the State debt
was reduced from about forty
million dollars down to nothing,
and no additional bonded debt
created excepting the new CAPT
tol bond issue. If this record
doesn't show good business man,
agement, what does it show:
Extravaganza? Hardly.

Well, now, according to my way OF
looking at it, this is not a bad or a
verv far wrong characterization OF
the situation today, as compared with
the long ago. but it may be all right.
as | say, because I am no longer a
kid and am living too much IN that
good old time when we did not haze
so much of these new ideas. And so

il those old fellows had lived now, and
had been given the careful watching
and tender nursing that we are giving
in this day, they would in reality have
been giants in all lines Of endeavor'
and physically more perfect. Condi-
tons have changed, they tell us, and
we must adapt ourselves to these
changed conditions, and / reckon

and that they are right and I am
wrong. However that may be, l just
can't help at this time to let my mind

a right fair schooling. Now, if a
