THE PUBLIC FORUM
THE TAX -AMENDMENT.-Mr

Shipparg desires information as to
the tax amendment to the constitu-
ton upon which the people will vote
at the coming election.
The present constitution provides
for the taxation of all property at
its fair cash value. In operation this
straight jacket has brought numer-
Gus evils, among which are double
and triple taxation of many things,
the Encouragement of wealth pro-
ductiOn, tax evasion oUtrageously I'M
equal and fraudulent assessments
and oppression of the poor, to say
nothing of the building of monOpoIes
that fatten upon corruption in admin
istration of the law.
Some of the people believing in
more freedom and less restriction
sought to have the straight jacket re-
moved by an amendment giving the
legislature power to change the sys-
TEN of taxation by classifying all
property, thus seeking relief for the
people from legal robbery under the
name of taxation. The people voted
for this amendment under the ad-
visory referendum by a large ma
jority.
The legislature betrayed the Peo-
pie and sought to keep the monop-
Olies and their allied interests in con-
tinUed possession of the power to
defraud and get Unearned wealth.
Hoping to deceive and thus gain their
unjust and Unrighteous end, they
have framed a constitutional amend
ment which will give the legislature
the power to classify personal prop
erty, leaving other constitutional re-
strictions in force. Under this
amendment millions of dollars worth
of special privilege values inherent in
the corporate law can be entirely ex-
empted from taxation, the burden Of
government upon the masses of the
people greatly increased and no re-
