WE ARE FOR DUHME.

Herman Duhme, complainant, in suit brought against the as= sessor of Perry County and the Arkansas Tax Commission seeks to force a full valuation Of prop erty in Perry County for the pur4 pose of raising sufficient reyen- He to satisfy a S20,000 judgment he holds against the county. Buh- me is a resident of Missouri, and the suit was filed in the United States Federal Court at Little Rock on Friday.
 There can be little conjecture as to the outcome of the action at law, but as to what will he the actual result k problemati. cal. The Arkansas law at pres. ent calls for an assessment of one hundred cents on the dollar and the court cannot but demand strict enforcement Of the law. Perry County $ assessed yalua- ton k in the neighborhood of B or 4o per cent of the actual val5l- ation. At that, it k hieher than the general run of assessments II other counties. Benton County is assessed at about l6 per eent and Washington County probably at little more than % per cent.
 The Democrat is for Duhme because We believe he will con, tribute substantially in the cam paign fer a just and equitable system of taxation. Through his suit it seems reasonable to sup pose that the people of the state will come to realization of tho folly of the antiquated assess ment system now being employ ed in Arkansas. The people will begin to appreciate the fact that it Is fundamentally wrong for one county in the state to pay taxes on a valuation double that of another county that re- ceiyes the same benefits from the state government. IL should lead to an understanding that a uni form one hundred per cent as sessment is the remedy required. Fayetteville Democrat.
