How Montgomery Farmers Look
At the Proposed New Tax Law

The farmers and business men OF
Montgomery county didn't mince
words in their mass meeting when
they adopted resolutions of protest
against an extra session of the legis.
lature, and the enactment of the pro-
posed new tax law. They go into the
subject from several view points, and
it would be a good thing for all con-
cerned to do the same before such a
proposition is given an endorsement
from any source. Read what the far
mers and taxpayers of Montgomery
county thought of the matter in the
following resolutions:
"F'irst-That we call on Hon. A.
o. Stanley, Governor of Kentucky,
not to call the Legislature in extra
ordinary session to consider the bills
proposed by the Kentucky Tax Com
mission, as we believe the expense of
such session a useless and unnec-
essary one
"Second-We believe the report of
such Tax Commission is an unjust
and unfair one, in that it does not
lay the burden of taxation upon all
classes of property fairly or equally.
We therefore condemn such report be-
cause of such fact and the further
fact that it calls for the creation of
another useless commission (more Of
ficers for the State), as we believe
the work of a new tax bill. if one is
adopted, should be done for the peo-
pie of the State by the elective Off
GERS.
"Third-We condemn the report
because it will greatly and unjustly
increase the taxes upon the lands, III
proportion to that Of other classes of
property. We favor "A revenue law
and believe that one should be franz
ed that all property in Kentucky,
real and personal, would be made to
bear it's just proportion of taxation.
"Fourth-We call to the attention
of the Governor, the members Of the
General Assembly, and the public,
the fact that Kentucky is now fifth
in coal production in the United
States and its development has only
begun. We therefore believe our val.
liable coal deposits should pay its
just proportion and that at least ten
cents per ton of coal mined should
be required of the coal interests OF
the State. We further believe that
the great liquor interests Of the State
should pay its just proportion. which
we feel is not now being done, a,
whisky is assessed at SIP a barre
and any barrel of whisky is worth
from 500 TO $3.50.
"Fifth-We condemn that part Of

ever, undoubtedly have much more
effect if the governors habit of par
doning so many criminals out of the
penitentiary were not so pronounced.
The Hopkinsville Kentuckian, which
has always been loyal friend of
the governor, says that "there has
been more or less grand stand playing
at the expense of Judge Bush" who
was right in the thick of the trouble
at all times, and appears to have been
made the guiltless goat" of the whole
affair by the Courer-Journal. The
Hopkinsville paper then says:
The man who saved Lube Martins
life, by sending him out of town at
the risk of mob violence to himself
was Judge c. Fl. Bush. Because ne
afterwards resorted to strategy to
pacify a bowling mob, to gain time
for Gov. Stanley to act, it does not
follow that he displayed less courage
than the Governor himself. Single
handed he had quoted bowling mob
before the Governor arrived. 1t ought
to be possible to give Gov. Stanley
due credit for going to Murray, with
out making goat of Judge Bush
who was there all the time and did
not leave until the Governor left.
The Governor himself. who knows
all the facts, ought to stop the vicious
assaults on Judge Bush by the Louis
vile papers.
The Winchester Democrat looks at
the affair from Il very pertinent an
gle, when il says: "Gov. A. o. STAN
ley made great play to the gale
ries last week by rushing to Murray
for the purpose of preventing a ne
gro's lynching by a mob. The negro
killed policeman. OF course, the
Governors action, while somewhat
dramatic, was all right but we start
cd out to say that if Stanley will quit
pardoning so many cut-throats and
criminals, thus assuring the people
that justice will be done by the reg
ular law, then perhaps mob spirit
will not be so bad in Kentucky"

James A. Beazley, of Lancaster,
has announced as candidate for the
democratic nomination for represen-
tative in Garrard county, and from
the tone of the Record, one would be
inclined to suspect that Editor Joe
f. Robinson is not very warm" for
him. Very probably not, and hardly
to be expected. Editor Robinson, who
is Stanley's handy man up in this
section of the woods, knows that If
Jim Beazley goes to the legislature
from Garrard, neither Stanley nor
any of his whisky gang which run
things in the state house just at pres
ent, will be able to "handle" Mr..
Beazley in the slightest degree, and
naturally and to be expected, Mr..
Robinson is not "for him"

The Governor And The Mob

Gov Stanley's action in going to
Galloway county last week when Il
mob threatened to lynch negro
prisoner, is being generally commend
ed, notwithstanding the fact that
many of the governors critics see in
it another of those ''grand-stand
plays" for which our governor has be-
come rather famous. No matter
whether it was or not, it was "A SPLEEN

since it is a matter of common know
ledge that such tools are of little
value and the insertion of this clause
is, therefore, reflection upon the
intelligence of the farmers of Ken

"Sixth-We call upon our Cover

State the number of useless Offices
he has found at Frankfort, as we
recall he said he would do before the
election and in his inaugural address.
We would especially be glad to have
